Postprocessing for GSEA analyses for Excel

Description

Clusters GSEA results by leading edge genes, and writes reports showing gene expression profiles of these genes (to Excel).

Usage

fgseaPostprocessingXLSX(
  genesetResults,
  leadingEdge,
  limmaResults,
  join.threshold = 0.5,
  ngroups = NULL,
  dist.method = "binary",
  filename
)

Arguments

genesetResults	Results from pathway analysis using limmaToFGSEA.
leadingEdge	Results from fgseaToLEdge
limmaResults	Results from runLimmaAnalysis
join.threshold	The threshold distance to join gene sets. Gene sets with a distance below this value will be joined to a single "cluster."
ngroups	The desired number of gene set groups. Either 'join.threshold' or 'ngroups' must be specified, 'ngroups' takes priority if both are specified.
dist.method	Method for distance calculation (see options for dist()). We recommend the 'binary' (also known as Jaccard) distance.
filename	File name for the output Excel file.

Value

An Excel file where the first sheet summarizes the gene set analysis results. Subsequent sheets are reports showing differential expression statistics of leading edge genes.

Examples

data("ExamplePathways")
data("ExampleResults") # Results from runLimmaAnalysis

fgseaResults <- limmaToFGSEA(ExampleResults, gene.sets = ExamplePathways)

leadingEdge <- fgseaToLEdge(fgseaResults, cutoff.type = "padj", cutoff = 0.1)


fgseaPostprocessingXLSX(fgseaResults, leadingEdge, 
                    limmaResults = ExampleResults,
                    join.threshold = 0.5,
                    filename = "Results.xlsx")
