Two novel gastric cancer-associated genes identified by differential display.

ABSTRACT: AIM:To clone novel gastric cancer-associated genes and investigate their roles in gastric cancer occurrence.METHODS:A method called differential display was used which allows the identification of differentially expressed genes by using PAGE to display PCR-amplified cDNA fragments between gastric cancer cells and normal gastric mucosa cells. These fragments were cloned into plasmid vector pUC18. Homology analysis was made after sequencing these fragments.RESULTS:Two novel genes were identified compared with sequences from GenBank. One was registered with the AD number AF 051783.In situ hybridization showed that these two novel genes expressed specifically in gastric cancer tissues.CONCLUSION:The two novel genes obtained by differential display were confirmed to be gastric cancer-associated genes using in situ hybridization.

A novel seizure-induced synaptotagmin gene identified by differential display.

Project description:Systemic administration of kainic acid, a cyclic analogue of glutamate, produces many of the clinical features of human temporal lobe epilepsy and status epilepticus in rats, including the induction of motor convulsions and the degeneration of neurons in the hippocampus and piriform cortex. Differential display PCR was used to identify mRNAs that are differentially expressed between degenerating and nondegenerating tissues in the brain after kainic acid-induced seizure activity. A novel cDNA fragment expressed in the degenerating hippocampus and piriform cortex, but not in the nondegenerating parietal cortex, was identified, cloned, and sequenced. This novel cDNA fragment identified a new member of the synaptotagmin gene family that is rapidly and transiently induced in response to seizure activity. Differential expression of this synaptotagmin gene, syt X, was confirmed by Northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization. This novel, inducible synaptotagmin gene may provide a direct link between seizure-induced neuronal gene expression and subsequent modulation of synaptic structure and function.

Gastric Cancer Associated Genes Identified by an Integrative Analysis of Gene Expression Data.

Project description:Gastric cancer is one of the most severe complex diseases with high morbidity and mortality in the world. The molecular mechanisms and risk factors for this disease are still not clear since the cancer heterogeneity caused by different genetic and environmental factors. With more and more expression data accumulated nowadays, we can perform integrative analysis for these data to understand the complexity of gastric cancer and to identify consensus players for the heterogeneous cancer. In the present work, we screened the published gene expression data and analyzed them with integrative tool, combined with pathway and gene ontology enrichment investigation. We identified several consensus differentially expressed genes and these genes were further confirmed with literature mining; at last, two genes, that is, immunoglobulin J chain and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 17, were screened as novel gastric cancer associated genes. Experimental validation is proposed to further confirm this finding.

Novel CDH1 germline mutations identified in Chinese gastric cancer patients.

Project description:AimTo give a comprehensive report of E-cadherin gene (CDH1) variations in a population at a high risk for gastric cancer (GC).MethodsThe samples consisted of 178 men and 58 women with a mean age of 62.3 ± 9.4 years and an age range of 30-84 years. A total of 240 cancer-free controls were recruited (mean age of 61.8 ± 10.1 years, age range of 26-82 years). Samples were screened for CDH1 germline mutations by high-resolution melting analysis or directly sequencing. Luciferase reporter assay, RNA splicing assay and bioinformatic analysis were used to evaluate the effect of mutations.ResultsFour novel CDH1 sequence alterations were identified in GC patients including a G>T transition 49 bp before the start codon; a three-nucleotide deletion, c.44_46del TGC; one missense mutation, c.604G>A (V202I); and one variation in the intron, c.1320+7A>G. In addition, polymorphism frequencies were observed for CDH1-164delT, -161C>A, -73A>C, c.48+6C>T, c.48+62_48+63delinsCGTGCCCCAGCCC, c.894C>T (A298A), c.1224G>A (A408A), c.1888C>G (L630V), c.2076T>C (A692A), and c.2253C>T (N751N) which is similar to the data reported in http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/SNP/. RNA splicing analysis suggested that the c.1320+7A>G and c.1224G>A variations did not affect exon splicing ability. Luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that the c.-49T variation might be helpful for E-cadherin transcription, though the increase in transcription activity is limited (only 33%). SIFT score and PolyPhen analysis both demonstrated that the L630V missense mutation probably damages protein function, while the V202I variant does not.ConclusionThis study reveals novel mutations in sporadic GC patients which had been poorly investigated for susceptibility genes.

Comprehensive analysis of histone modification-associated genes on differential gene expression and prognosis in gastric cancer.

Project description:Accumulating evidence suggests that the epigenetic alterations caused by histone modifications have important roles in the genesis of gastric cancer (GC), particularly the well-studied acetylation and methylation modifications. In the present study, a Bioinformatics analysis of the expression of histone modification-associated genes in GC and normal tissues was performed by using datasets from Oncomine, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The clinical data of GC patients were downloaded from TCGA to determine the association between histone modification-associated gene expression and clinicopathological parameters or survival of GC. Finally, lysine acetyltransferase 2A (KAT2A), nuclear receptor coactivator 1 (NCOA1), SMYD family member 5 (SMYD5), protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) and PRDF1-RIZ (PR)/Su(var)3-9, enhancer-of-zeste and trithorax (SET) domain 16 (PRDM16) were screened; KAT2A, SMYD5 and PRMT1 were upregulated, while PRDM16 expression was downregulated in GC. Analysis of the GEO and Oncomine datasets revealed that NCOA1 was upregulated, which was contrary to the result obtained with the TCGA stomach adenocarcinoma dataset. Aberrant expression of KAT2A, NCOA1, SMYD5 and PRMT1 was more obvious in gastric intestinal-type adenocarcinoma; low NCOA1 expression was associated with better overall survival of GC patients [hazard ratio (HR)=0.690, 95% CI=0.570-0.840, P<0.001] and was an independent predictor for patients diagnosed with GC (HR=0.639, 95% CI=0.437-0.933, P=0.020). Correlation analysis and protein-protein interaction network analysis indicated a close association between ATAD2 and estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1), PRMT1, NCOA1 and KAT2A. In conclusion, differential expression of KAT2A, NCOA1, SMYD5, PRMT1 and PRDM16 was identified in GC vs. normal tissues, low NCOA1 expression was associated with poor survival of GC and ATAD2 may interact with ESR1 to regulate NCOA1 and PRMT1 in GC.

Identification of novel hub genes associated with gastric cancer using integrated bioinformatics analysis.

Project description:BackgroundGastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common solid malignant tumors worldwide with a high-recurrence-rate. Identifying the molecular signatures and specific biomarkers of GC might provide novel clues for GC prognosis and targeted therapy.MethodsGene expression profiles were obtained from the ArrayExpress and Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were picked out by R software. The hub genes were screened by cytohubba plugin. Their prognostic values were assessed by Kaplan-Meier survival analyses and the gene expression profiling interactive analysis (GEPIA). Finally, qRT-PCR in GC tissue samples was established to validate these DEGs.ResultsTotal of 295 DEGs were identified between GC and their corresponding normal adjacent tissue samples in E-MTAB-1440, GSE79973, GSE19826, GSE13911, GSE27342, GSE33335 and GSE56807 datasets, including 117 up-regulated and 178 down-regulated genes. Among them, 7 vital upregulated genes (HMMR, SPP1, FN1, CCNB1, CXCL8, MAD2L1 and CCNA2) were selected. Most of them had a significantly worse prognosis except SPP1. Using qRT-PCR, we validated that their transcriptions in our GC tumor tissue were upregulated except SPP1 and FN1, which correlated with tumor relapse and predicts poorer prognosis in GC patients.ConclusionsWe have identified 5 upregulated DEGs (HMMR, CCNB1, CXCL8, MAD2L1, and CCNA2) in GC patients with poor prognosis using integrated bioinformatical methods, which could be potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for GC treatment.

Mycobacterium bovis BCG cell wall-specific differentially expressed genes identified by differential display and cDNA subtraction in human macrophages.

Project description:We have analyzed the gene expression profile of monocytes in response to a highly purified cell wall fraction of Mycobacterium bovis BCG, a clinically approved adjuvant known as BCG cell wall skeleton (BCG-CWS). It is composed of mycolic acid, arabinogalactan, and peptidoglycan and confers Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2)- and TLR4-dependent signaling that induces monocytes to differentiate into antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Here we report differential gene expression analysis with BCG-CWS-stimulated versus nonstimulated monocytes. BCG-CWS exerted massive induction of genes regulated by TLR signaling. Marked gene regulatory characteristics in BCG-CWS-stimulated cells compared to lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated cells follow. (i) Spliced mRNAs encoding soluble forms of TREM-1 and TREM-2 (recently discovered inflammatory-signal-amplifying receptors) were regulated by BCG-CWS, resulting in their differential expression. (ii) The genes for zinc-iron transporter protein (ZIP)-like family proteins HKE-1 and LIV-1 were induced exclusively by BCG-CWS. (iii) Interleukin-23 (IL-23), rather than IL-12p70, was induced by BCG-CWS, while interferon-inducible genes were induced only by LPS. By Northern and reverse transcription-PCR analyses, we confirmed the differential expression of more than 30 BCG-CWS regulatory genes, and their expression was compared with that of LPS and other known TLR ligands. A battery of genes responded rapidly and for a short time to LPS but for a long time to BCG-CWS. Structural analysis of the identified novel or hypothetical proteins revealed that some are potential candidates as signaling mediators or transcriptional regulators. Hence, BCG-CWS may profoundly modulate APC responses in a way distinct from that of LPS, leading to possible advantages for its adjuvant-active therapeutic potential.

Simultaneous identification of two cyclohexanone oxidation genes from an environmental Brevibacterium isolate using mRNA differential display.

Project description:The technique of mRNA differential display was used to identify simultaneously two metabolic genes involved in the degradation of cyclohexanone in a new halotolerant Brevibacterium environmental isolate. In a strategy based only on the knowledge that cyclohexanone oxidation was inducible in this strain, the mRNA population of cells exposed to cyclohexanone was compared to that of control cells using reverse transcription-PCR reactions primed with a collection of 81 arbitrary oligonucleotides. Three DNA fragments encoding segments of flavin monooxygenases were isolated with this technique, leading to the identification of the genes of two distinct cyclohexanone monooxygenases, the enzymes responsible for the oxidation of cyclohexanone. Each monooxygenase was expressed in Escherichia coli and characterized. This work validates the application of mRNA differential display for the discovery of new microbial metabolic genes.

Systematic analysis of genetic variants in cancer-testis genes identified two novel lung cancer susceptibility loci in Chinese population.

Project description:Cancer-testis (CT) genes played important roles in the progression of malignant tumors and were recognized as promising therapeutic targets. However, the roles of genetic variants in CT genes in lung cancer susceptibility have not been well depicted. This study aimed to evaluate the associations between genetic variants in CT genes and lung cancer risk in Chinese population. A total of 22,556 qualified SNPs from 268 lung cancer associated CT genes were initially evaluated based on our previous lung cancer GWAS (Genome-wide association studies) with 2,331 cases and 3,077 controls. As a result, 17 candidate SNPs were further genotyped in 1,056 cases and 1,053 controls using Sequenom platform. Two variants (rs6941653, OPRM1, T > C, screening: OR = 1.24, 95%CI: 1.12-1.38, P = 2.40×10-5; validation: OR = 1.18, 95%CI: 1.01-1.37, P = 0.039 and rs402969, NLRP8, C > T, screening: OR = 1.15, 95%CI: 1.04-1.26, P = 0.006; validation: OR = 1.16, 95%CI: 1.02-1.33, P = 0.028) were identified as novel lung cancer susceptibility variants. Stratification analysis indicated that the effect of rs6941653 was stronger in lung squamous cell carcinoma (OR = 1.36) than that in lung adenocarcinoma (OR = 1.15, I2 = 77%, P = 0.04). Finally, functional annotations, differential gene expression analysis, pathway and gene ontology analyses were performed to suggest the potential functions of our identified variants and genes. In conclusion, this study identified two novel lung cancer risk variants in Chinese population and provided deeper insight into the roles of CT genes in lung tumorigenesis.

Characterization of genes modulated during pheomelanogenesis using differential display.

Project description:Molecular and biochemical mechanisms that modulate the production of eumelanin or pheomelanin pigments involve the opposing effects of two intercellular signaling molecules, alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH) and agouti signal protein (ASP). ASP is an antagonist of MSH signaling through the melanocyte-specific MSH receptor, although its mechanism(s) of action is controversial. We previously have reported significant down-regulation of all known melanogenic genes during the eumelanin to pheomelanin switch in murine hair follicle melanocytes and in cultured melanocytes treated with recombinant ASP. To identify factors that might be involved in the switch to pheomelanogenesis, we screened ASP-treated melanocytes by using differential display and identified three up-regulated genes: a DNA replication control protein, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, and a novel gene. We have simultaneously identified six down-regulated genes in ASP-treated melanocytes; two of those encode tyrosinase and TRP2, melanogenic genes known to be down-regulated during pheomelanogenesis, which provide good internal controls for this approach. These results suggest that there are complex mechanisms involved in the switch to pheomelanin production, and that these modulated genes might be involved in the pleiotropic changes seen in yellow mice, including the change in coat color.
