Identification of candidate genes or microRNAs associated with the lymph node metastasis of SCLC.


ABSTRACT: Background:Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly malignant cancer, and over 70% of patients with SCLC present with the metastatic disease. We aimed to explore some novel differentially expressed genes (DEGs) or microRNAs (miRNAs) associated with the lymph node metastasis of SCLC. Methods:The DEGs between the metastasis and cancer groups were identified, and GO functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses for these DEGs were implemented. Subsequently, the protein-protein interaction network and subnetwork of module were constructed. Then the regulatory networks based on miRNAs, transcription factors (TFs) and target DEGs were constructed. Ultimately, the survival analysis for DEGs was performed to obtain the DEGs related to the survival of SCLC. Results:Here, 186 upregulated (e.g., GSR, HCP5) and 144 downregulated DEGs (e.g., MET, GRM8, and DACH1) were identified between the SCLC patients with lymph node metastasis and without lymph node metastasis. GRM8 was attracted to the G-protein coupled receptor signaling pathway. Besides, miR-126 was identified in the miRNAs-TFs-target regulatory network. GRM8 and DACH1 were all regulated by miR-126. In particular, GSR and HCP5 were correlated with survival of SCLC patients. Conclusion:MiR-126, DACH1, GRM8, MET, GSR, and HCP5 were implicated in the lymph node metastasis process of SCLC.
