Screening key lncRNAs for human rectal adenocarcinoma based on lncRNA-mRNA functional synergistic network.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Rectal adenocarcinoma (READ) is one of the deadliest malignancies, and the molecular mechanisms underlying the initiation and development of READ remain largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to find key long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and mRNAs in READ by RNA sequencing.

Methods

RNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) and lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) between READ and normal tissue. READ-specific protein-protein interaction (PPI), DElncRNA-DEmRNA coexpression, and DElncRNA-nearby DEmRNA interaction networks were constructed. DEmRNAs and DEmRNAs coexpressed with DElncRNAs were functionally annotated.

Results

A total of 2113 DEmRNAs and 150 DElncRNAs between READ and normal tissue were identified. The PPI network identified several hub proteins, including CDK1, AURKB, CDC6, FOXQ1, NUF2, and TOP2A. The DElncRNA-DEmRNA coexpression and DElncRNA-nearby DEmRNA interaction networks identified some hub lncRNAs, including CCAT1, LOC105374879, GAS5, and B3GALT5-AS1. The colorectal cancer pathway, the intestinal immune network for IgA production and the p53 signaling pathway were three pathways significantly enriched in DEmRNAs and DEmRNAs coexpressed with DElncRNAs. MSH6 coexpressed with two DElncRNAs (LOC105374879 and CASC15) and BCL2 coexpressed with B3GALT5-AS1 were significantly enriched in the colorectal cancer signaling pathway. TNFRSF17 coexpressed with B3GALT5-AS1 was enriched in the intestinal immune network for IgA production. CCNB2 coexpressed with LOC105374879 was enriched in the p53 signaling pathway.

Conclusion

A total of four DEmRNAs (MSH6, BCL2, TNFRSF17, and CCNB2) and three DElncRNAs (LOC105374879, CASC15, and B3GALT5-AS1) may be involved in the pathogenesis of READ; this data may contribute to understanding the mechanisms of READ and the development of therapeutic strategies for READ.

Project description:BackgroundStomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), is one of the most lethal malignancies around the world. The aim of this study was to find the long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) acting as diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of STAD.MethodsBase on TCGA dataset, the differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs) and lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) were identified between STAD and normal tissue. The machine learning and survival analysis were performed to evaluate the potential diagnostic and prognostic value of lncRNAs for STAD. We also build the co-expression network and functional annotation. The expression of selected candidate mRNAs and lncRNAs were validated by Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and GSE27342 dataset. GSE27342 dataset were also to perform gene set enrichment analysis.ResultsA total of 814 DEmRNAs and 106 DElncRNAs between STAD and normal tissue were obtained. FOXD2-AS1, LINC01235, and RP11-598F7.5 were defined as optimal diagnostic lncRNA biomarkers for STAD. The area under curve (AUC) of the decision tree model, random forests model, and support vector machine (SVM) model were 0.797, 0.981, and 0.983, and the specificity and sensitivity of the three model were 75.0% and 97.1%, 96.9% and 96%, and 96.9% and 97.1%, respectively. Among them, LINC01235 was not only an optimal diagnostic lncRNA biomarkers, but also related to survival time. The expression of three DEmRNAs (ESM1, WNT2, and COL10A1) and three optimal diagnostic lncRNAs biomarkers (FOXD2-AS1, RP11-598F7.5, and LINC01235) in qRT-PCR validation was were consistent with our integrated analysis. Except for FOXD2-AS1, ESM1, WNT2, COL10A1, and LINC01235 were upregulated in STAD, which was consistent with our integration results. Gene set enrichment analysis results indicated that DNA replication, Cell cycle, ECM-receptor interaction, and P53 signaling pathway were four significantly enriched pathways in STAD.ConclusionOur study identified three DElncRNAs as potential diagnostic biomarkers of STAD. Among them, LINC01235 also was a prognostic lncRNA biomarkers.

Project description:Cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) is a heterogeneous disease with different prognoses. Researches on prognostic biomarkers and therapy targets of CN-AML are still ongoing. Instead of protein-coding genes, more and more researches were focused on the non-coding RNAs especially long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) which may play an important role in the development of AML. Although a large number of lncRNAs have been found, our knowledge of their functions and pathological process is still in its infancy. The purpose of this research is to identify the key lncRNAs and explore their functions in CN-AML by reconstructing the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network based on the competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) theory. We reconstructed a global triple network based on the ceRNA theory using the data from National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus and published literature. According to the topological algorithm, we identified the key lncRNAs which had both the higher node degrees and the higher numbers of lncRNA-miRNA pairs and total pairs in the ceRNA network. Meanwhile, Gene Ontology (GO) and pathway analysis were performed using databases such as DAVID, KOBAS and Cytoscape plug-in ClueGO respectively. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network was composed of 90 lncRNAs,33mRNAs,26 miRNAs and 259 edges in the lncRNA upregulated group, and 18 lncRNAs,11 mRNAs,6 miRNAs and 45 edges in the lncRNA downregulated group. The functional assay showed that 53 pathways and 108 GO terms were enriched. Three lncRNAs (XIST, TUG1, GABPB1-AS1) could possibly be selected as key lncRNAs which may play an important role in the development of CN-AML. Particularly, GABPB1-AS1 was highly expressed in CN-AML by both bioinformatic analysis and experimental verification in AML cell line (THP-1) with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. In addition, GABPB1-AS1 was also negatively correlated with overall survival of AML patients. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network revealed key lncRNAs and their functions in CN-AML. Particularly, lncRNA GABPB1-AS1 was firstly proposed in AML. We believe that GABPB1-AS1 is expected to become a candidate prognostic biomarker or a potential therapeutic target.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in many diseases and are involved in the post-transcriptional regulatory network of tumors. The purpose of this study is to mine new lncRNA-mRNA regulatory pairs and analyze the new mechanism of lncRNA involvement in breast cancer progression. Using breast cancer miRNA and mRNA expression profiling from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we identified 59 differentially expressed lncRNAs, 88 differentially expressed miRNAs, and 1,465 differentially expressed mRNAs between breast cancer tissue and adjacent normal breast cancer. Whereafter, four candidate lncRNAs (FGF14-AS2, LINC01235, AC055854.1, and AC124798.1) were identified by the Kaplan-Meier (K-M) plotter. Furthermore, we screened the hub lncRNA (LINC01235) through univariate Cox analysis, multivariate Cox analysis, and qPCR validation, which was significantly correlated with breast cancer stage, ER status, and pathological N. Subsequently, 107 LINC01235-related mRNAs were obtained by combining differentially expressed miRNAs, differentially expressed mRNAs, and LINC01235 targeting miRNAs and mRNAs. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was established by Cytoscape software, and 53 key genes were screened. Function and pathway enrichment showed that LINC01235-related key genes might be involved in the process of cell differentiation, cell proliferation, and p53 signal pathway. In addition, LINC01235 has been confirmed to regulate the proliferation, migration, and invasion of MCF-7 cells in in vitro experiments. Furthermore, we screened three mRNAs (ESR1, ADRA2A, and DTL) associated with breast cancer drug resistance from key genes. Through RNA interference experiments in vitro and correlation analysis, we found that there was a negative feedback mechanism between LINC01235 and ESR1/ADRA2A. In conclusion, our results suggest that LINC01235-ESR1 and LINC01235-ADRA2A could serve as important co-expression pairs in the progression of breast cancer, and LINC01235 plays a key role as an independent prognostic factor in patients with breast cancer. The findings of this work greatly increase our understanding of the molecular regulatory mechanisms of lncRNA in breast cancer.
