Hallmarks of glyco-genes expression and their glycosylation pathways in squamous and adenocarcinoma cervical cancer

ABSTRACT: Dysregulation of glyco-gene expression in cancer can lead to aberrant glycans and glycoconjugates, which in turn can promote tumorigenesis. Cervical cancer display augmentation of aberrant sialylated glycans and increase of glyco-genes, which encoded enzymes participate in the sialylation pathways. Besides sialiltranferases, other glyco-genes, analyzed individually are reported as altered in cervical cancer. Here we show a comprehensive analysis of glyco-gene expression in cervical cancer to obtain a wide scenery of global changes in glycosylation pathways. First, we compared glyco-gene expression between normal tissue and cervical cancer. Second, we analyzed the glycogene expression in subtypes of cc to obtain hallmarks of glyco-gene expression in each case. Our results indicate that in cervical cancer the GPI-anchored biosynthesis is increased in cc while the synthesis of chondroitin and dermatan sulfate are decreased. Moreover, data show that adenocarcinoma displayed a homogenous glyco-gene expression pattern, where chondroitin /dermatan sulfate and heparan sulfate glycogenes are decreased, while keratan sulfate genes are increased.
