E2F1 Promotes Progression of Bladder Cancer by Modulating RAD54L Involved in Homologous Recombination Repair.

ABSTRACT: DNA repair defects are important factors in cancer development. High DNA repair activity can affect cancer progression and chemoresistance. DNA double-strand breaks in cancer cells caused by anticancer agents can be restored by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination repair (HRR). Our previous study has identified E2F1 as a key gene in bladder cancer progression. In this study, DNA repair genes related to E2F1 were analyzed, and RAD54L involved in HRR was identified. In gene expression analysis of bladder cancer patients, the survival of patients with high RAD54L expression was shorter with cancer progression than in patients with low RAD54L expression. This study also revealed that E2F1 directly binds to the promoter region of RAD54L and regulates the transcription of RAD54L related to the HRR pathway. This study also confirmed that DNA breaks are repaired by RAD54L induced by E2F1 in bladder cancer cells treated with MMC. In summary, RAD54L was identified as a new target directly regulated by E2F1. Our results suggest that, E2F1 and RAD54L could be used as diagnostic markers for bladder cancer progression and represent potential therapeutic targets.

Project description:ObjectiveThe current study aims to identify the dysregulated pathway involved in carcinogenesis and the essential survival-related dysregulated genes among this pathway in the early stage of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).Patients and methodsData from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) including 526 tumor tissues of LUAD and 59 healthy lung tissues were analyzed to gain differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Gene ontology (GO) analysis was conducted with DAVID, while the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis of DEGs was performed, followed by gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) methods. Survival analysis was implemented in TCGA dataset and validated in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) cohort GSE50081, which includes 127 patients with stage I LUAD.ResultsGSEA enrichment analysis suggested that homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway was significantly enriched. Subsequent KEGG pathway enrichment analysis indicated the significant up-regulation of HRR pathway in patients with T1 stage LUAD. Retrieved in Gene database, RAD54L is involved in HRR pathway and were recognized to be significantly differentially expressed in T1 stage LUAD in our study. The survival analysis indicated that high expression of RAD54L was significantly related to worse overall survival in patients with T1 stage LUAD (TCGA cohort: HR=2.10, 95% CI [1.47-2.98], P = 0.001; GSE50081 validation cohort: HR = 2.61, 95% CI [1.51-4.52], P = 0.002). Multivariate cox regression analysis indicated that RAD54L is an independent prognostic factor in the early-stage LUAD.ConclusionHRR pathway is up-regulated in LUAD, among which the expression of RAD54L was found to be significantly differentially expressed in T1 stage tumor tissue. Patients with high expression of RAD54L were associated with worse overall survival in the TCGA cohort and validation cohort. This study suggests a potential mechanism of lung cancer progression and provide a budding prognostic factor and treatment target in early-stage LUAD.
