Gene expression array profile of human osteosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: The aims of this pilot study were to determine whether needle and open biopsies from osteosarcoma (OS) provide sufficient quality of mRNA for cDNA array analyses to gain insights into the expression profile of OS. A total of 22 samples collected from OS were used for array analyses. A primary cell culture was also established from one of the OS biopsies. Total RNA was extracted and probes were generated for cDNA arrays. cDNA probes were made for all the 22 samples. Two of these samples were needle core bone biopsies. Statistical analysis confirmed the reliability of array data obtained in 16 of the 22 samples. Known genes involved in bone metabolism and osteosarcoma were identified as highly expressed, and the putative new marker Ezrin was also identified. Confirmatory immunohistochemical staining using the Ezrin antibody was performed in a selection of samples.

Exploring the key genes and pathways of side population cells in human osteosarcoma using gene expression array analysis.

Project description:BackgroundHuman osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the most common primary bone sarcoma, because of early metastasis and few treatment strategies. It has been reported that the tumorigenicity and self-renewal capacity of side population (SP) cells play roles in human OS via regulating of target genes. This study aims to complement the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that regulated between the SP cells and the non-SP cells from primary human OS and identify their functions and molecular pathways associated with OS.MethodsThe gene expression profile GSE63390 was downloaded, and bioinformatics analysis was made.ResultsOne hundred forty-one DEGs totally were identified. Among them, 72 DEGs (51.06%) were overexpressed, and the remaining 69 DEGs (48.94%) were underexpressed. Gene ontology (GO) and pathway enrichment analysis of target genes were performed. We furthermore identified some relevant core genes using gene-gene interaction network analysis such as EIF4E, FAU, HSPD1, IL-6, and KISS1, which may have a relationship with the development process of OS. We also discovered that EIF4E/mTOR signaling pathway could be a potential research target for therapy and tumorigenesis of OS.ConclusionThis analysis provides a comprehensive understanding of the roles of DEGs coming from SP cells in the development of OS. However, these predictions need further experimental validation in future studies.

Identification of a seven-gene prognostic signature using the gene expression profile of osteosarcoma.

Project description:BackgroundOsteosarcoma is a malignant bone tumor that typically occurs in adolescents or children under 20 years of age. Developing efficient clinical prognostic markers is crucial for improving the treatment of osteosarcoma patients.MethodsThree datasets related to osteosarcoma were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. A gene signature model was established using the Limma package in the R software, univariate and multivariate survival analyses, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithms. The gene signature was then verified using external datasets.ResultsFrom the GEO database, 242 differentially expressed genes were identified. A total of 590 unique genes, including 380 genes from the human protein interaction network, were found to be related to biological processes such as bone development and bone cell development. Univariate Cox survival analyses revealed 43 genes that were associated with the prognosis of osteosarcoma patients. A seven-gene signature [retinitis pigmentosa 2 (RP2), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), myosin VI (MYO6), mutL homolog 1 (MLH1), Casein kinase 2 beta (CSNK2B), ribosomal protein L37A (RPL37A), and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein alpha (CEBPA)] was developed using LASSO regression analysis and multivariate regression analysis. This gene signature could stratify the prognostic risk of sample cases in the training set, the test set, and the external verification set (P<0.01). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the 5-year survival was higher than 0.72 in both the training and verification groups.ConclusionsIn this study, a seven-gene signature was developed that is highly efficient at predicting the prognosis of patients with osteosarcoma, and therefore, this signature may be a crucial guide in the treatment of these patients.

Pharmacogenetics of the Primary and Metastatic Osteosarcoma: Gene Expression Profile Associated with Outcome.

Project description:Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. In recent decades, OS treatment has reached a plateau and drug resistance is still a major challenge. Therefore, the present study aimed to analyze the expression of the genes related to pharmacogenetics in OS. The expression of 32 target genes in 80 paired specimens (pre-chemotherapeutic primary tumor, post-chemotherapeutic primary tumor and pulmonary metastasis) obtained from 33 patients diagnosed with OS were analyzed by the real-time PCR methodology. As the calibrators (control), five normal bone specimens were used. The present study identified associations between the OS outcome and the expression of the genes TOP2A, DHFR, MTHFR, BCL2L1, CASP3, FASLG, GSTM3, SOD1, ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCC3, ABCC5, ABCC6, ABCC10, ABCC11, ABCG2, RALBP1, SLC19A1, SLC22A1, ERCC1 and MSH2. In addition, the expression of the ABCC10, GGH, GSTM3 and SLC22A1 genes were associated with the disease event, and the metastasis specimens showed a high expression profile of ABCC1, ABCC3 and ABCC4 genes and a low expression of SLC22A1 and ABCC10 genes, which is possibly an important factor for resistance in OS metastasis. Therefore, our findings may, in the future, contribute to clinical management as prognostic factors as well as possible therapeutic targets.

Cross-Species Gene Expression Analysis Reveals Gene Modules Implicated in Human Osteosarcoma.

Project description:Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the malignant bone tumors occurring in both human and canine, and in both of them, it is characterized by a high rate of metastasis and poor prognosis. Cross-species analysis reveals previously neglected molecular or signaling pathways involved in the progression of diseases, and dogs are genetically comparable to humans and live in similar environments. Therefore, the aim of this study was to find out OS hub genes through a cross-species analysis. Materials and Methods: All the human and canine OS gene expression data obtained by the Affymetrix platform were collected. After quality assessment and normalization, co-expression network was performed using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Species-specific modules and consensus modules were identified. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks analysis was performed based on consensus gene modules. Then, consensus modules were functionally annotated and correlated with clinical traits. Hub nodes were identified by a subnetwork analysis of PPI network and WGCNA module membership. Modules of interest and hub nodes were validated in an external data set. Results: Three modules for the human network, seven modules for the canine network, and four consensus modules were identified. The consensus module 3 (C3) showed a significant correlation with the metastatic status in the training data set and a significant correlation with metastasis-free survival in the external data set. Cluster of differentiation 86 (CD86) was identified as the hub gene of C3, showing a significant correlation with metastasis-free survival. Conclusion: Genes in C3 play an important role in OS metastasis, whereas CD86 might be a potential molecular biomarker for OS metastasis.

RNA sequencing identifies gene expression profile changes associated with β-estradiol treatment in U2OS osteosarcoma cells.

Project description:This study was conducted to identify gene expression profile changes associated with β-estradiol (E2) treatment in U2OS osteosarcoma cells by high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Two U2OS cell samples treated with E2 (15 μmol/L) and two untreated control U2OS cell samples were subjected to RNA-seq. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the groups were identified, and main biological process enrichment was performed using gene ontology (GO) analysis. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using Cytoscape based on the Human Protein Reference Database. Finally, NFKB1 expression was confirmed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The map ratios of the four sequenced samples were >65%. In total, 128 upregulated and 92 downregulated DEGs were identified in E2 samples. After GO enrichment, the downregulated DEGs, such as AKT1, were found to be mainly enriched in cell cycle processes, whereas the upregulated DEGs, such as NFKB1, were involved in the regulation of gene expression. Moreover, AKT1 (degree =117) and NFKB1 (degree =72) were key nodes with the highest degrees in the PPI network. Similarly, the results of qRT-PCR confirmed that E2 upregulated NFKB1 expression. The results suggest that E2 upregulates the expression of NFKB1, ATF7IP, and HDAC5, all of which are involved in the regulation of gene expression and transcription, but downregulates that of TCF7L2, ALCAM, and AKT, which are involved in Wnt receptor signaling through β-catenin and morphogenesis in U2OS osteosarcoma cells.

Application of cDNA array for studying the gene expression profile of mature appressoria of Magnaporthe grisea.

Project description:Appressorium is an infection structure of the phytopathogenic fungus Magnaporthe grisea. Analysis of gene expression profiles of appressorium development provides insight into the molecular basis of pathogenicity and control of this fungal plant disease. A cDNA array representing 2927 unique genes based on a large EST (expressed sequence tag) database of M. grisea strain Y34 was constructed and used to profile the gene expression patterns at mycelium and appressorium maturation stages. Compared with mycelia, 55 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated genes were identified in mature appressoria. Among 77 genes, 16 genes showed no similarity to the genome sequences of M. grisea. A novel homologue of peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase was found to be expressed at low-level in mature appressoria of M. grisea. The results indicated that the genes such as pyruvate carboxylase, phospholipid metabolism-related protein and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase involved in gluconeogenesis, lipid metabolism and glycolysis, showed differential expression in mature appressoria. Furthermore, genes such as PTH11, beta subunit of G protein and SGT1 involved in cell signalling, were expressed differentially in mature appressoria. Northern blot analysis was used to confirm the cDNA array results.

Identification of key gene modules for human osteosarcoma by co-expression analysis.

Project description:BACKGROUNDOsteosarcoma is a type of bone cancer casting huge threat to the human health worldwide. Previously, gene expression analyses were performed to identify biomarkers for cancer; however, systemic co-expression analysis for osteosarcoma is still in need. The aim of this study was to construct a gene co-expression network that predicts clusters of candidate genes associated with the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma.METHODSHere, we extracted the large scale of datasets from the GEO database. With systematical approaches, we identified the co-expression modules by using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and investigated the functional enrichments of important modules at GO and KEGG terms.RESULTSFirst, seven co-expression modules, which contain different genes, were conducted for 2228 genes in the 22 human osteosarcoma samples. Then, correlation study showed that the hub genes between pairwise modules displayed great differences. Lastly, functional enrichments of the co-expression modules showed that the module 5 enriched in immune response, antigen processing, and presentation, which is in consistence with GO result. Therefore, we speculated that the module 5 may play a key role in the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma.CONCLUSIONSHere, we speculated that genes of the module 5 were the essential genes that were associated to human osteosarcoma. Together, our findings not only provided outline of co-expression gene modules for human osteosarcoma, but also promoted the understanding of these modules at functional aspects.

Characterization of the gene expression profile of human bocavirus.

Project description:We have generated a quantitative transcription profile of human bocavirus type 1 (HBoV1) by transfecting a nearly full-length clone in human lung epithelial A549 cells as well as in a replication competent system in 293 cells. The overall transcription profile of HBoV1 is similar to that of two other members of genus Bocavirus, minute virus of canines and bovine parvovirus 1. In particular, a spliced NS1-transcript that was not recognized previously expressed the large non-structural protein NS1 at approximately 100kDa; and the NP1-encoding transcripts were expressed abundantly. In addition, the protein expression profile of human bocavirus type 2 (HBoV2) was examined in parallel by transfection of a nearly full-length clone in A549 cells, which is similar to that of HBoV1. Moreover, our results showed that, unlike human parvovirus B19 infection, expression of the HBoV1 proteins only does not induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of A549 cells.

Gene expression profile analysis of human intervertebral disc degeneration.

Project description:In this study, we used microarray analysis to investigate the biogenesis and progression of intervertebral disc degeneration. The gene expression profiles of 37 disc tissue samples obtained from patients with herniated discs and degenerative disc disease collected by the National Cancer Institute Cooperative Tissue Network were analyzed. Differentially expressed genes between more and less degenerated discs were identified by significant analysis of microarray. A total of 555 genes were significantly overexpressed in more degenerated discs with a false discovery rate of < 3%. Functional annotation showed that these genes were significantly associated with membrane-bound vesicles, calcium ion binding and extracellular matrix. Protein-protein interaction analysis showed that these genes, including previously reported genes such as fibronectin, COL2A1 and β-catenin, may play key roles in disc degeneration. Unsupervised clustering indicated that the widely used morphology-based Thompson grading system was only marginally associated with the molecular classification of intervertebral disc degeneration. These findings indicate that detailed, systematic gene analysis may be a useful way of studying the biology of intervertebral disc degeneration.
