Dnmt1 Expression

AbstractHead and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common type of malignancy in the world. DNA cytosine-5-methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) play key roles in carcinogenesis and regulation of the immune micro-environment, but the gene expression and the role of DNMT1 in HNSCC is unknown. In this study, we utilized online tools and databases for pan-cancer and HNSCC analysis of DNMT1 expression and its association with clinical cancer characteristics. We also identified genes that positively and negatively correlated with DNMT1 expression and identified eight hub genes based on protein–protein interaction (PPI) network analysis. Enrichment analyses were performed to explore the biological functions related with of DNMT1. The Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) database was performed to explore the relationship between DNMT1 expression and immune-cell infiltration. We demonstrated that DNMT1 gene expression was upregulated in HNSCC and associated with poor prognosis. Based on analysis of the eight hub genes, we determined that DNMT1 may be involved in cell cycle, proliferation and metabolic related pathways. We also found that significant difference of B cells infiltration based on TP 53 mutation. These findings suggest that DNMT1 related epigenetic alterations have close relationship with HNSCC progression, and DNMT1 could be a novel diagnostic biomarker and a promising therapeutic target for HNSCC.

AbstractTumor suppression by the extracts of Azadirachta indica (neem) works via anti-proliferation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis, demonstrated previously using cancer cell lines and live animal models. However, very little is known about the molecular targets and pathways that the neem extracts and the associated compounds act through. Here, we address this using a genome-wide functional pooled shRNA screen on head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line treated with crude neem leaf extracts, known for their anti-tumorigenic activity. By analyzing differences in global clonal sizes of the shRNA-infected cells cultured under no treatment and treatment with neem leaf extract conditions, assayed using next-generation sequencing, we found 225 genes affected the cancer cell growth in the shRNA-infected cells treated with neem extract. Pathway enrichment analyses of whole-genome gene expression data from cells temporally treated with neem extract revealed important roles played by the TGF-β pathway and HSF-1-related gene network. Our results indicate that neem extract simultaneously affects various important molecular signaling pathways in head and neck cancer cells, some of which may be therapeutic targets for this devastating tumor.

ObjectivesThis study aimed to identify genes regulating cancer stemness of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and evaluate the ability of these genes to predict clinical outcomes.Materials and MethodsThe stemness index (mRNAsi) was obtained using a one-class logistic regression machine learning algorithm based on sequencing data of HNSCC patients. Stemness-related genes were identified by weighted gene co-expression network analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis (LASSO). The coefficient of LASSO was applied to construct a diagnostic risk score model. The Cancer Genome Atlas database, the Gene Expression Omnibus database, Oncomine database and the Human Protein Atlas database were used to validate the expression of key genes. Interaction network analysis was performed using String database and DisNor database. The Connectivity Map database was used to screen potential compounds. The expressions of stemness-related genes were validated using quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR).ResultsTTK, KIF14, KIF18A and DLGAP5 were identified. Stemness-related genes were upregulated in HNSCC samples. The risk score model had a significant predictive ability. CDK inhibitor was the top hit of potential compounds.ConclusionStemness-related gene expression profiles may be a potential biomarker for HNSCC.
