Differentially expressed genes related to lymph node metastasis in advanced laryngeal squamous cell cancers

ABSTRACT: Understanding the molecular mechanisms and gene expression in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) may explain its aggressive biological behavior and regional metastasis pathways. Better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying LSCC metastasis and the search for possible molecular targets seems promising. Interpreting the links between the differentially expressed genes in advanced stages can lead to a search for predictive markers that can also help determine the possible treatment routes. We designed this study to detect possible genetic alterations in a homogeneous group of patients with locoregionally advanced laryngeal cancer who underwent total laryngectomy and neck dissection. Patients with and without lymph node metastasis were selected to examine the differential gene expression in the normal mucosa, tumor, and lymph node tissues of each patient. Our main purpose was to identify the possible commonly expressed genes in this homogenous group of Turkish patients with locoregionally advanced laryngeal cancer. Second, we aimed to determine the predictive role of these genes in lymph node metastasis and overall prognosis.

Project description:Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the molecular basis of tumorigenesis and regional lymph node metastasis in LSCC, and provide a set of genes that may be useful for the development of novel diagnostic markers and/or more effective therapeutic strategies. Methods: A total number of 10 patients who underwent surgery for primary laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma were recruited for microarray analysis. LSCC tissues compared with corresponding adjacent non-neoplastic tissues were analysed by Illumina mRNA microarrays,and LSCC tissues with regional lymph node metastasis and LSCC tissues without regional lymph node metastasis were analyzed in the same manner.The most frequently differently expressed genes screened by microarrays were also validated by qRT-PCR in another 42 patients diagnosed for LSCC . Results: Analysed by Illumina mRNA microarrays,there were 361 genes significantly related to tumorigenesis while 246 genes significantly related to regional lymph node metastasis in LSCC. We found that the six genes (CDK1,CDK2,CDK4,MCM2,MCM3,MCM4) were most frequently differently expressed functional genes related to tumorigenesis while eIF3a and RPN2 were most frequently differently expressed functional genes related to regional lymph node metastasis in LSCC. The expressions of these genes were also validated by qRT-PCR. Conclusions: The research revealed a gene expression signature of tumorigenesis and regional lymph node metastasis in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.Of the total, the deregulation of several genes (CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, MCM2, MCM3, MCM4, EIF3a and RPN2) were potentially associated with disease development and progression. The result will contribute to the understanding of the molecular basis of LSCC and help to improve diagnosis and treatment.
