Low expression of CDHR1 is an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in glioma.

ABSTRACT: Background: Analysis of the differentially expressed genes between lower grade glioma (LGG) and glioblastoma (GBM) will identify genes involved in a more aggressive phenotype of glioma. Methods: Differentially expressed genes between GBM and LGG were identified using published datasets. Kaplan-Meier estimator was used to determine the overall survival of different groups of glioma patients. The biological functions of CDHR1 in glioma were tested using CCK-8 and trans-well assays. Results: CCDC109B, CD58, CLIC1, EFEMP2, EMP3, LAMC1, LGALS1, PDLIM1 and TNFRSF1A were over-expressed, while, CDHR1 was down-regulated in GBM in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA), GSE4412 and GSE43378 datasets. Compared with normal brain tissues, CDHR1 was down-regulated in glioma tissues. And low expression of CDHR1 was an unfavorable prognostic factor in glioma. Moreover, CDHR1 was lowly expressed in mesenchymal GBM subtype and lower expression of CDHR1 was associated with the worse clinical prognosis of GBM. Furthermore, CDHR1 was down-regulated in astrocytoma LGG subtype and low expression of CDHR1 was a bad prognosis of LGG. CDHR1 expression levels were also associated with IDH mutation. IDH mutant LGG or GBM patients were with higher CDHR1 expression. High expression of CDHR1 was a favorable prognosis in IDH mutant or IDH wild type LGG patients. CHDR1 expression was associated with MGMT methylation and CDHR1 was down-regulated in chemotherapy un-responsive LGG patients. CDHR1 was an independent prognostic factor and negatively associated with EMP3 expression. Glioma patients with low CDHR1 and high EMP3 expression had worse clinical outcomes. At last, we showed that over-expression of CDHR1 could inhibit glioma cell growth and invasion. Conclusion: Low expression of CDHR1 was an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in glioma.

Project description:Alterations in the expression of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) gene have been associated with the development, progression and survival outcomes of numerous cancers including tumours of the central nervous system. We undertook a detailed bioinformatic analysis of low-grade glioma (LGG) bulk RNAseq data to characterise the association between DMD expression and LGG survival outcomes. High DMD expression was significantly associated with poor survival in LGG with a difference in median overall survival between high and low DMD groups of over 7 years (P = < 0.0001). In a multivariate model, DMD expression remained significant (P = 0.02) and was an independent prognostic marker for LGG. The effect of DMD expression on overall survival was only apparent in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutant cases where non-1p/19q co-deleted LGG patients could be further stratified into high/low DMD groups. Patients in the high DMD group had a median overall survival time almost halve that of the low DMD group. The expression of the individual DMD gene products Dp71, Dp71ab and Dp427m were also significantly associated with overall survival in LGG which have differential biological effects relevant to the pathogenesis of LGG. Differential gene expression and pathway analysis identifies dysregulated biological processes relating to ribosome biogenesis, synaptic signalling, neurodevelopment, morphogenesis and immune pathways. Genes spanning almost the entirety of chromosome 1p are upregulated in patients with high overall DMD, Dp71 and Dp427m expression which worsens survival outcomes for these patients. We confirmed dystrophin protein is variably expressed in LGG tumour tissue by immunohistochemistry and, overall, demonstrate that DMD expression has potential utility as an independent prognostic marker which can further stratify IDH mutant LGG to identify those at risk of poor survival. This knowledge may improve risk stratification and management of LGG.

Project description:Objective: The expression, prognosis, and related mechanisms of ANXA1 are investigated in glioma, with the objective to find potential therapeutic molecular targets for glioma. Methods: We analyzed the gene expression of ANXA1 using glioma-related databases, including the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) database, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Moreover, we collected the sample tissues and corresponding paracancerous tissues of 23 glioma patients and then conducted a Western blot experiment to verify the expression and correlate survival of ANXA1. Moreover, we generated survival ROC curves, performing univariate and multivariate Cox analyses and the construction of the nomogram. Differential expression analysis was conducted by high and low grouping based on the median of the ANXA1 gene expression values. We conducted Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) to explore possible mechanisms, and gene co-expression analysis was also performed. Results: The results showed that the ANXA1 expression level was higher in gliomas than in normal tissues, and a high expression level of ANXA1 in gliomas was associated with poorer prognosis. The independent prognosis analysis showed that the ANXA1 gene was an independent prognostic factor of glioma. In the analysis of KEGG and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), it is shown that ANXA1 may play an important role in glioma patients by affecting extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction and the focal adhesion signal pathway. The core genes, including COL1A1, COL1A2, FN1, ITGA1, and ITGB1, were screened for gene correlation and prognosis analysis. The expression level of the five genes was verified by qPCR in glioma. We concluded that these five core genes and ANXA1 could play a synergistic role in gliomas. Conclusion: The results indicated that a high expression level of ANXA1 leads to worse prognosis and ANXA1 is an independent prognostic factor and a potentially important target for the treatment of gliomas.
