A putative competing endogenous RNA network in cisplatin-resistant lung adenocarcinoma cells identifying potentially rewarding research targets.

ABSTRACT: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common type of non-small cell lung cancer and has a poor 5 year survival rate (<10%). Cisplatin is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic treatments for LUAD, even though it is of limited overall utility due to acquired drug resistance. To identify possible genetic targets for the mitigation of cisplatin resistance, gene expression data from cisplatin-resistant cell lines were integrated with patient information. Expression data for cisplatin-resistant and cisplatin-sensitive A549 cell lines were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, while LUAD patient data was obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs), microRNAs (DEmiRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (DElncRNAs) were identified between the cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant cells. Using the TCGA patient data, 33 DEmRNAs associated with survival were identified. A total of 74 DElncRNAs co-expressed with the survival-associated DEmRNAs, and 11 DEmiRNAs that regulated the survival-associated DEmRNAs, were also identified. A competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was constructed based on the aforementioned results, which included 17 survival-associated DEmRNAs, 9 DEmiRNAs and 16 DElncRNAs. This network revealed 8 ceRNA pathway axes possibly associated with cisplatin resistance in A549 cells. Specifically, the network suggested that the lncRNAs HOXD-AS2, LINC01123 and FIRRE may act as ceRNAs to increase cisplatin resistance in human LUAD cells. Therefore, it was speculated that these lncRNAs represent potentially rewarding research targets.

Project description:Increasing evidence has shown competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) play key roles in numerous cancers. Nevertheless, the ceRNA network that can predict the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is still lacking. The aim of the present study was to identify the prognostic value of key ceRNAs in lung tumorigenesis. Differentially expressed (DE) RNAs were identified between LUAD and adjacent normal samples by limma package in R using The Cancer Genome Atlas database (TCGA). Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway function enrichment analysis was performed using the clusterProfiler package in R. Subsequently, the LUAD ceRNA network was established in three steps based on ceRNA hypothesis. Hub RNAs were identified using degree analysis methods based on Cytoscape plugin cytoHubba. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was implemented to calculate the risk score using the candidate ceRNAs and overall survival information. The survival differences between the high-risk and low-risk ceRNA groups were determined by the Kaplan-Meier and log-rank test using survival and survminer package in R. A total of 2,989 mRNAs, 185 lncRNAs, and 153 miRNAs were identified. GO and KEGG pathway function enrichment analysis showed that DE mRNAs were mainly associated with "sister chromatid segregation," "regulation of angiogenesis," "cell adhesion molecules (CAMs)," "cell cycle," and "ECM-receptor interaction." LUAD-related ceRNA network was constructed, which comprised of 54 nodes and 78 edges. Top ten hub RNAs (hsa-miR-374a-5p, hsa-miR-374b-5p, hsa-miR-340-5p, hsa-miR-377-3p, hsa-miR-21-5p, hsa-miR-326, SNHG1, RALGPS2, and PITX2) were identified according to their degree. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses demonstrated that hsa-miR-21-5p and RALGPS2 had a significant prognostic value. Finally, we found that a high risk of three novel ceRNA interactions (SNHG1-hsa-miR-21-5p-RALGPS2, SNHG1-hsa-miR-326-RALGPS2, and SNHG1-hsa-miR-377-3p-RALGPS2) was positively associated with worse prognosis. Three novel ceRNAs (SNHG1-hsa-miR-21-5p-RALGPS2, SNHG1-hsa-miR-326-RALGPS2, and SNHG1-hsa-miR-377-3p-RALGPS2) might be potential biomarkers for the prognosis and treatment of LUAD.
