Abstract Background: Pancreatic cancer has many pathologic types, among which pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common one. Bioinformatics has become a very common tool for the selection of potentially pathogenic genes. Methods: Three data sets containing the gene expression profiles of PDAC were downloaded from the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database. The limma package of R language was utilized to explore the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). To analyze functions and signaling pathways, the Database Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) was used. To visualize the protein-protein interaction (PPI) of the DEGs ,Cytoscape was performed under the utilization of Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes (STRING). With the usage of the plug-in cytoHubba in cytoscape software, the hub genes were found out. To verify the expression levels of hub genes, Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) was performed. Last but not least, UALCAN analysis online tool was implemented to analyze the overall survival. Results: The 376 DEGs were highly enriched in biological processes including signal transduction, apoptotic process and several pathways, mainly associated with Protein digestion and absorption and Pancreatic secretion pathway. The expression levels of nucleolar and spindle associated protein 1 (NUSAP1) and SHC binding and spindle associated 1 (SHCBP1) were discovered highly expressed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma tissues. NUSAP1 and SHCBP1 had a high correlation with prognosis. Conclusions: The findings of this bioinformatics analysis indicate that NUSAP1 and SHCBP1 may be key factors in the prognosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most common malignant tumor in digestive system. CircRNAs involve in lots of biological processes through interacting with miRNAs and their targeted mRNA. We obtained the circRNA gene expression profiles from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between PDAC samples and paracancerous tissues. Bioinformatics analyses, including GO analysis, KEGG pathway analysis and PPI network analysis, were conducted for further investigation. We also constructed circRNA‑microRNA-mRNA co-expression network. A total 291 differentially expressed circRNAs were screened out. The GO enrichment analysis revealed that up-regulated DEGs were mainly involved metabolic process, biological regulation, and gene expression, and down-regulated DEGs were involved in cell communication, single-organism process, and signal transduction. The KEGG pathway analysis, the upregulated circRNAs were enriched cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, and HTLV-I infection, while the downregulated circRNAs were enriched in protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum, insulin signaling pathway, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, etc. Four genes were identified from PPI network as both hub genes and module genes, and their circRNA‑miRNA-mRNA regulatory network also be constructed. Our study indicated possible involvement of dysregulated circRNAs in the development of PDAC and promoted our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Previous studies have shown that pharmacogenomic modeling of circulating tumor and invasive cells (CTICs) can predict response of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) to combination chemotherapy, predominantly 5-fluorouracil-based. We hypothesized that a similar approach could be developed to predict treatment response to standard frontline gemcitabine with nab-paclitaxel (G/nab-P) chemotherapy. Gene expression profiles for responsiveness to G/nab-P were determined in cell lines and a test set of patient samples. A prospective clinical trial was conducted, enrolling 37 patients with advanced PDAC who received G/nab-P. Peripheral blood was collected prior to treatment, after two months of treatment, and at progression. The CTICs were isolated based on a phenotype of collagen invasion. The RNA was isolated, cDNA synthesized, and qPCR gene expression analyzed. Patients were most closely matched to one of three chemotherapy response templates. Circulating tumor and invasive cells’ SMAD4 expression was measured serially. The CTICs were reliably isolated and profiled from peripheral blood prior to and during chemotherapy treatment. Individual patients could be matched to distinct response templates predicting differential responses to G/nab-P treatment. Progression free survival was significantly correlated to response prediction and ΔSMAD4 was significantly associated with disease progression. These findings support phenotypic profiling and ΔSMAD4 of CTICs as promising clinical tools for choosing effective therapy in advanced PDAC, and for anticipating disease progression.
