Identification of four differentially methylated genes as prognostic signatures for stage I lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Background:Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the main subtype of non-small cell lung cancer with a low survival prognosis. We aimed to generate a prognostic model for the postoperative recurrence of LUAD. Methods:The methylated DNA data of LUAD patients were downloaded from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The differentially methylated genes were identified and protein-protein interacting network was constructed, with which prognostic signature of this cancer was generated. Survival and functional pathways analysis w used to evaluate the clustering ability of the prognostic signature. Results:We identified 151 differentially methylated genes related to relapse-free survival of patients with LUAD. Nine hub genes were identified in PPI network, with which 4 gene pair signature was selected as prognostic signature. The potential functions of 6 genes (JDP2, SERPINA5, PLG, SEMG2, RFX5, and POLR3B) in the 4-gene pair signature were enriched in intracellular protein synthesis and transportation. Conclusion:The four gene pair signature can predict the prognosis of patients with stage I LUAD. Our study provides a reference for patients with postoperative adjuvant therapy.

Project description:BackgroundAberrant DNA methylation is significantly associated with breast cancer.MethodsIn this study, we aimed to determine novel methylation biomarkers using a bioinformatics analysis approach that could have clinical value for breast cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Firstly, differentially methylated DNA patterns were detected in breast cancer samples by comparing publicly available datasets (GSE72245 and GSE88883). Methylation levels in 7 selected methylation biomarkers were also estimated using the online tool UALCAN. Next, we evaluated the diagnostic value of these selected biomarkers in two independent cohorts, as well as in two mixed cohorts, through ROC curve analysis. Finally, prognostic value of the selected methylation biomarkers was evaluated breast cancer by the Kaplan-Meier plot analysis.ResultsIn this study, a total of 23 significant differentially methylated sites, corresponding to 9 different genes, were identified in breast cancer datasets. Among the 9 identified genes, ADCY4, CPXM1, DNM3, GNG4, MAST1, mir129-2, PRDM14, and ZNF177 were hypermethylated. Importantly, individual value of each selected methylation gene was greater than 0.9, whereas predictive value for all genes combined was 0.9998. We also found the AUC for the combined signature of 7 genes (ADCY4, CPXM1, DNM3, GNG4, MAST1, PRDM14, ZNF177) was 0.9998 [95% CI 0.9994-1], and the AUC for the combined signature of 3 genes (MAST1, PRDM14, and ZNF177) was 0.9991 [95% CI 0.9976-1]. Results from additional validation analyses showed that MAST1, PRDM14, and ZNF177 had high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for breast cancer diagnosis. Lastly, patient survival analysis revealed that high expression of ADCY4, CPXM1, DNM3, PRDM14, PRKCB, and ZNF177 were significantly associated with better overall survival.ConclusionsMethylation pattern of MAST1, PRDM14, and ZNF177 may represent new diagnostic biomarkers for breast cancer, while methylation of ADCY4, CPXM1, DNM3, PRDM14, PRKCB, and ZNF177 may hold prognostic potential for breast cancer.

Project description:Differentially methylated genes (DMGs) serve a crucial role in the pathogenesis of glioma via the regulation of the cell cycle, proliferation, apoptosis, migration, infiltration, DNA repair and signaling pathways. This study aimed to identify aberrant DMGs and pathways by comprehensive bioinformatics analysis. The gene expression profile of GSE28094 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and the GEO2R online tool was used to find DMGs. Gene Ontology (GO) functional analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis of the DMGs were performed by using the Database for Annotation Visualization and Integrated Discovery. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed with Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes. Analysis of modules in the PPI networks was performed by Molecular Complex Detection in Cytoscape software, and four modules were performed. The hub genes with a high degree of connectivity were verified by The Cancer Genome Atlas database. A total of 349 DMGs, including 167 hypermethylation genes, were enriched in biological processes of negative and positive regulation of cell proliferation and positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter. Pathway analysis enrichment revealed that cancer regulated the pluripotency of stem cells and the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, whereas 182 hypomethylated genes were enriched in biological processes of immune response, cellular response to lipopolysaccharide and peptidyl-tyrosine phosphorylation. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, type I diabetes mellitus and TNF signaling pathway. A total of 20 hub genes were identified, of which eight genes were associated with survival, including notch receptor 1 (NOTCH1), SRC proto-oncogene (also known as non-receptor tyrosine kinase, SRC), interleukin 6 (IL6), matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9), interleukin 10 (IL10), caspase 3 (CASP3), erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 2 (ERBB2) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Therefore, bioinformatics analysis identified a series of core DMGs and pathways in glioma. The results of the present study may facilitate the assessment of the tumorigenicity and progression of glioma. Furthermore, the significant DMGs may provide potential methylation-based biomarkers for the precise diagnosis and targeted treatment of glioma.
