The prognostic value of ADRA1 subfamily genes in gastric carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Adrenergic receptor ?1 (ADRA1) subfamily members, including ADRA1A, ADRA1B and ADRA1D, are understood to participate in cardiac disease and benign prostatic hyperplasia. In addition, adrenergic signals in cell pathways can promote the development of cancer. However, little is understood regarding the associations between ADRA1 subfamily members and gastric carcinoma (GC). The present study investigated the prognostic value of the ADRA1 subfamily genes in GC. Data from a total of 379 patients with GC were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus databases. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression analysis were used to determine associations with overall survival (OS) and to evaluate the median survival time using hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Multivariate survival analysis revealed that low expression levels of ADRA1A (HR, 0.595; 95% CI, 0.426-0.831; adjusted P=0.002) ADRA1B (HR, 0.576; 95% CI, 0.412-0.805; adjusted P=0.001) and ADRA1D (HR, 0.559; 95% CI, 0.398-0.787; adjusted P=0.001) were associated with a favourable OS. Joint-effects analysis demonstrated that combinations of low expression levels of ARDA1A, ARDA1B and ARDA1D were significantly associated with a favourable OS. Overall, the current results suggested that the mRNA expression levels of ARDA1 subfamily members may serve as potential prognostic markers for GC.

Project description:AbstractAberrant expression of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily C (ABCC), one of the largest superfamilies and transporter gene families of membrane proteins, is associated with various tumors. However, its relationship with liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC) remains unclear.We used the Oncomine, UALCAN, Human Protein Atlas, GeneMANIA, GO, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), TIMER, and Kaplan-Meier Plotter databases. On May 20, 2021, we searched these databases for the terms ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCC3, ABCC4, ABCC5, ABCC6, ABCC7, ABCC8, ABCC9, ABCC10, ABCC11, ABCC12, ABCC13, and "liver cancer." The exposure group comprised LIHC patients, and the control group comprised normal patients (those with noncancerous liver tissue). All patients shown in the retrieval language search were included. We compared the mRNA expression of these proteins in LIHC and control patients to examine the potential role of ABCC1-13 in LIHC.Relative to the normal liver tissue, mRNA expression of ABCC1/2/3/4/5/6/10 was significantly upregulated (P < .001), and that of ABCC9/11 significantly downregulated (both P < .001), in LIHC. ABCC mRNA expression varied with gender (P < .05), except for ABCC11-13; with tumor grade (P < 0.05), except for ABCC7/12/13; with tumor stage (P < .05), except for ABCC11-13; and with lymph node metastasis status (P < .05), except for ABCC7/8/11/12/13. Based on KEGG enrichment analysis, these genes were associated with the following pathways: ABC transporters, Bile secretion, Antifolate resistance, and Peroxisome (P < .05). Except for ABCC12/13, the ABCCs were significantly associated with B cell, CD8+ T cell, CD4+ T cell, macrophage, neutrophil, and dendritic cell infiltration (P < .05). High mRNA expression of ABCC1/4/5/8 (P < .05) and low expression of ABCC6/7/9/12/13 (P < .05) indicated poor prognosis. Prognostic significance was indicated for ABCC2/13 for both men and women (P < .05); for ABCC1/6/12/13 for tumor grades 1-3 (P < .05); for ABCC5/11/12/13 for all tumor stages (P < .05); for ABCC1/11/12/13 for American Joint Committee on Cancer T stages 1-3 (P < .05); and for ABCC1/5/6/13 for vascular invasion. None showed prognostic significance for microvascular invasion (P < .05).We identified ABCC1/2/3/4/5/6/9/10/11 as potential diagnostic markers, and ABCC1/4/5/6/7/8/9/12/13 as prognostic markers, of LIHC. Our future work will promote the use of ABCCs in the diagnosis and treatment of LIHC.

Project description:Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a digestive system tumor with high morbidity and mortality rates. Molecular targeted therapies, including those targeting human epidermal factor receptor 2 (HER2), have proven to be effective in clinical treatment. However, better identification and description of tumor-promoting genes in GC is still necessary for antitumor therapy. Methods: Gene expression and clinical data of GC patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Last absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression were applied to build a prognostic model, the Prognosis Score. Functional enrichment and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) were used to explore potential mechanisms. Western blotting, RNA interference, cell migration, and wound healing assays were used to detect the expression and function of myosin light chain 9 (MYL9) in GC. Results: A four-gene prognostic model was constructed and GC patients from TCGA and meta-GEO cohorts were stratified into high-prognosis score groups or low-prognosis score groups. GC patients in the high-prognosis score group had significantly poorer overall survival (OS) than those in the low-prognosis score groups. The GC prognostic model was formulated as PrognosisScore = (0.06 × expression of BGN) - (0.008 × expression of ATP4A) + (0.12 × expression of MYL9) - (0.01 × expression of ALDH3A1). The prognosis score was identified as an independent predictor of OS. High expression of MYL9, the highest weighted gene in the prognosis score, was correlated with worse clinical outcomes. Functional analysis revealed that MYL9 is mainly associated with the biological function of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Knockdown of MYL9 expression inhibits migration of GC cells in vitro. Conclusion: We found that PrognosisScore is potential reliable prognostic marker and verified that MYL9 promotes the migration and metastasis of GC cells.

Project description:Purpose: Gastric cancer (GC) is a primary cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most common RNA modifications that involves in the progression of numerous cancers. However, the expression status and function of m6A-related genes in gastric cancer is still not well understood. The current study is aimed to investigate the expression status and determinate prognostic value of m6A-related genes in gastric cancer. Methods: m6A-asssociated gene expression was evaluated via analyzing the expression data of GC patients from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The protein expression levels of m6A-associated molecules were further validated by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining data from GC tissue microarray (TMA) cohort and Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to assess the prognostic value of m6A-associated genes in gastric cancer. Risk score model was established by lasso COX regression analysis and its prognostic predicted efficiency was assessed by the receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Cox regression analyses were used for exploring risk factors related to GC patient prognosis. Results: Most of m6A-related genes were upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels in gastric cancer tissues compared with that in normal gastric tissues. The expression levels of m6A-related genes were associated with clinicopathological features including race, age and TNM stage. High expression of WTAP and FTO predicted poor prognosis of GC patients. Survival analysis demonstrated that patients with high-risk scores had worse overall survival (OS) and ROC curves suggested the prediction performance for gastric patients. Moreover, Cox regression analyses indicated that m6A risk model score was a prognostic factor for OS and FTO upregulation might be a potential independent prognostic factor for recurrence-free survival (RFS) in gastric cancer patients. Conclusion: m6A-related genes were dysregulated in GC and were closely associated with prognosis of GC patients. FTO might serve as a novel prognostic biomarker for gastric cancer, while the m6A-related risk score might be informative for risk assessment and prognostic stratification.

Project description:BackgroundGastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumor that originates from the epithelium of the gastric mucosa and has a poor prognosis. Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) covers 95% of total gastric cancer. This study aimed to identify the prognostic value of RNA methylation-related genes in gastric cancer.MethodsIn this study, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)-STAD and GSE84426 cohorts were downloaded from public databases. Patients were classified by consistent cluster analysis based on prognosis-related differentially expressed RNA methylation genes Prognostic genes were obtained by differential expression, univariate Cox and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analyses. The prognostic model was established and validated in the training set, test set and validation set respectively. Independent prognostic analysis was implemented. Finally, the expression of prognostic genes was affirmed by reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR).ResultsIn total, four prognostic genes (ACTA2, SAPCD2, PDK4 and APOD) related to RNA methylation were identified and enrolled into the risk signature. The STAD patients were divided into high- and low-risk groups based on the medium value of the risk score, and patients in the high-risk group had a poor prognosis. In addition, the RNA methylation-relevant risk signature was validated in the test and validation sets, and was authenticated as a reliable independent prognostic predictor. The nomogram was constructed based on the independent predictors to predict the 1/3/5-year survival probability of STAD patients. The gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) result suggested that the poor prognosis in the high-risk subgroup may be related to immune-related pathways. Finally, the experimental results indicated that the expression trends of RNA methylation-relevant prognostic genes in gastric cancer cells were in agreement with the result of bioinformatics.ConclusionOur study established a novel RNA methylation-related risk signature for STAD, which was of considerable significance for improving prognosis of STAD patients and offering theoretical support for clinical therapy.
