decoupleR & Transcription Factory Activity Inference: pvalue or padj?

Hello! I recently came across decoupleR for transcription factor activity inference in bulk RNA-seq (https://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/vignettes/decoupleR/inst/doc/tf_bk.html).

I was wondering why do they use p-values, as opposed to adjusted pvalues, in their analysis of inferring infer pathway activities from the t-values of the DEGs between KO and WT? Is there a specific reason to use raw (unadjusted) pvalues in this context?

Thanks!

pvalue padj decoupler

Did you find an answer? I’m wondering about the same issue too.

I am specifically interested in p values generated from run_consensus , run_ulm , run_mlm etc.

any news about ths ?
