MyoScore

A genetically-informed transcriptomic scoring system for quantifying human skeletal muscle health

MyoScore quantifies skeletal muscle health across five genetically-driven dimensions based on GWAS-TWAS integration of 28 muscle-related phenotypes.

Installation

# Install from GitHub
devtools::install_github("Hirriririir/MyoScore")

Quick Start

library(MyoScore)

# Calculate MyoScore from raw count matrix
scores <- myoscore_score("path/to/raw_counts.csv")

# Or from an R matrix
scores <- myoscore_score(count_matrix)

# View results
head(scores)
#>     Strength_score Mass_score LeanMuscle_score Youth_score Resilience_score MyoScore
#> S1          72.3       65.1             80.2        55.8             68.4     69.2
#> S2          45.1       38.7             42.3        61.2             35.6     44.1

Five Dimensions

Dimension Weight GWAS Basis
Strength 25.2% Grip strength, walking pace
Mass 17.7% Fat-free mass (whole body, limbs)
LeanMuscle 24.3% Thigh fat infiltration MRI
Youth 24.2% Telomere length
Resilience 8.7% Myopathy diagnosis, CK levels

Higher score = healthier muscle (0-100 scale)

Visualization

# Radar chart (requires fmsb)
myoscore_plot_radar(scores, groups = metadata$condition)

# Grouped boxplot (requires ggplot2)
myoscore_plot_boxplot(scores, groups = metadata$condition)
