Microarray analysis on the lncRNA expression profile in male hepatocelluar carcinoma patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs are involved with development and progression of cancer, and the advance of microarray technology allows the researchers to investigate the complete expression profile of lncRNA in various kinds of sample. We enrolled 5 male primary HCC cases with chronic HBV infection and the HCC and normal tissues have been obtained during the resection surgery. After total RNA extraction, the lncRNA microarray analysis was conducted to determine the lncRNA and mRNA expression signals. 612 lncRNAs and 1,064 mRNAs were significantly up-regulated in HCC tissue while 656 lncRNAs and 1,532 mRNAs were down-regulated in HCC tissues. Compared with normal tissues, XLOC_007433 (fold change: 12.80) and AC144449.1 (fold change: 27.20) were the most over- and under-expressed lncRNAs in HCC tissues. As for the mRNA, THBS4 (fold change:41.13) and CXCL14 (fold change: 58.03) were the most over- and under-expressed mRNAs in HCC tissues when comparing with their normal counterparts. In total, 4,552 pairs of lncRNA-mRNA were identified and the co-expression network was constructed. Moreover, the gene ontology enrichment analysis showed that the significantly different transcript between HCC and normal tissues were mainly associated with response to wounding, inflammatory response, protein hetrodimerization activity, response to stress which involved with biological process and molecular function. The pathway analysis suggested that the most significant pathways consisted of alcoholism, regulatory RNA pathways and RNA polymerase transcription. Several novel differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs were identified in the present study.

Project description:ObjectiveTo analyze the expression profile variation of lncRNAs in normal urinary bladder tissue and urothelial carcinoma of the urinary bladder through microarray technology. The differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified and classified, and their biological information was analyzed. The data obtained in the study will prove helpful for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder.Materials and methodsThree specimens of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder and three specimens of normal bladder tissue were identified by histology. The total RNA was isolated from the bladder urothelial carcinomas and normal tissue and purified. The targets were mixed and hybridized with the genes on the microarray, which contained thirty thousand lncRNAs. The bladder urothelial carcinomas were then compared with the normal bladder tissue. The lncRNAs that were differentially expressed between the two groups were identified based on the signal-to-noise ratios using the Agilent Feature Extraction software and were analyzed with the Agilent Genespring GX software (Agilent). The outcome was obtained, and the biological information of these genes was deposited in GenBank.ResultsThe expression profile of lncRNAs was significantly different between normal bladder tissue and urothelial carcinoma of the bladder. Compared with normal bladder tissue, 1,122 lncRNAs exhibited at least a twofold, significant difference (P < 0.05) and are thus regarded as differentially expressed lncRNAs. Of these, 734 and 388 lncRNAs were upregulated and down regulated. The differentially expressed lncRNAs in the urothelial carcinoma of the bladder are distributed on every chromosome, and most of these lncRNAs are distributed on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and X.ConclusionsUrothelial carcinoma of the bladder is a complicated disease that involves the regulation of multiple genes and the participation of multiple chromosomes. Some of the differentially expressed lncRNAs that were upregulated, such as AK124776, lincRNA-RAB12-1, KRT8P25, RP11-474J18.4, AC000110.1, KRT8P13, KRT8P10, BC072678, and downregulated, such as nc-HOXB9-206, RP11-160A10.2, nc-HOXA11-86, nc-HOXD10-7, nc-HOXB9-205, CES4, nc-HOXD12-3, systematic research on these lncRNAs will help clarify the mechanisms of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder and guide the early diagnosis and treatment of this cancer in the future.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a preventable disease rather than a curable one, since there is no well-documented effective treatment modality until now, making the molecular study of this disease mandatory. FINDINGS: We studied gene expression profile of 17 Egyptian HCC patients associated with HCV genotype-4 infection by c-DNA microarray. Out of the 15,660 studied genes, 446 were differentially expressed; 180 of them were up regulated and 134 were down regulated. Seventeen genes out of the 180 up-regulated genes are involved in 28 different pathways. Protein phosphatase 3 (PPP3R1) is involved in 10 different pathways followed by fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), Cas-Br-M ecotropic retroviral transforming sequence b (CBLB), spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) involved in three pathways; bone morphogenetic protein 8a (BMP8A), laminin alpha 3 (LAMA3), cell division cycle 23 (CDC23) involved in 2 pathways and NOTCH4 which regulate Notch signaling pathway. On the other hand, 25 out of the 134 down-regulated genes are involved in 20 different pathways. Integrin alpha V alpha polypeptide antigen CD51 (ITGVA) is involved in 4 pathways followed by lymphotoxin alpha (TNF superfamily, member 1) (LTA) involved in 3 pathways and alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M), phosphorylase kinase alpha 2-liver (PHKA2) and MAGI1 membrane associated guanylate kinase 1 (MAGI1) involved in 2 pathways. In addition, 22 genes showed significantly differential expression between HCC cases with cirrhosis and without cirrhosis. Confirmation analysis was performed on subsets of these genes by RT-PCR, including some up-regulated genes such as CDK4, Bax, NOTCH4 and some down-regulated genes such as ISGF3G, TNF, and VISA. CONCLUSION: This is the first preliminary study on gene expression profile in Egyptian HCC patients associated with HCV-Genotype-4 using the cDNA microarray. The identified genes could provide a new gate for prognostic and diagnostic markers for HCC associated with HCV. They could also be used to identify candidate genes for molecular target therapy.
