Abstract Background Lung cancer is the number one cancer killer in the world with more than 142,670 deaths estimated in the United States alone in the year 2019. Consequently, there is an overreaching need to identify the key biomarkers for lung cancer. The aim of this study is to computationally identify biomarker genes for lung cancer that can aid in its diagnosis and treatment. The gene expression profiles of two different types of studies, namely non-treatment and treatment, are considered for discovering biomarker genes. In non-treatment studies healthy samples are control and cancer samples are cases. Whereas, in treatment studies, controls are cancer cell lines without treatment and cases are cancer cell lines with treatment. Results The Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) for lung cancer were isolated from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database using R software tool GEO2R. A total of 407 DEGs (254 upregulated and 153 downregulated) from non-treatment studies and 547 DEGs (133 upregulated and 414 downregulated) from treatment studies were isolated. Two Cytoscape apps, namely, CytoHubba and MCODE, were used for identifying biomarker genes from functional networks developed using DEG genes. This study discovered two distinct sets of biomarker genes – one from non-treatment studies and the other from treatment studies, each set containing 16 genes. Survival analysis results show that most non-treatment biomarker genes have prognostic capability by indicating low-expression groups have higher chance of survival compare to high-expression groups. Whereas, most treatment biomarkers have prognostic capability by indicating high-expression groups have higher chance of survival compare to low-expression groups. Conclusion A computational framework is developed to identify biomarker genes for lung cancer using gene expression profiles. Two different types of studies – non-treatment and treatment – are considered for experiment. Most of the biomarker genes from non-treatment studies are part of mitosis and play vital role in DNA repair and cell-cycle regulation. Whereas, most of the biomarker genes from treatment studies are associated to ubiquitination and cellular response to stress. This study discovered a list of biomarkers, which would help experimental scientists to design a lab experiment for further exploration of detail dynamics of lung cancer development.

377 Background: Papillary kidney cancer, which occurs in 15% of patients with kidney cancer, can be aggressive and there is currently no effective form of therapy for this disease. To evaluate the metabolic characteristics of sporadic papillary kidney cancer, we have evaluated metabolic parameters of several papillary kidney cancer cell lines and available gene expression profiles. Methods: Established cell lines derived from patients with sporadic papillary kidney cancer (LABAZ, MDACC-55, HRC-86T2) and from a hereditary form of fumarate hydratase-deficient kidney cancer (UOK262) were evaluated. All sporadic lines were initially sequenced for fumarate hydratase (FH). All cell lines were metabolically profiled using the Seahorse Extracellular Flux Analyzer and further evaluated for reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial membrane potential, and glucose dependence. Finally gene expression profiles of publically available datasets of papillary and HLRCC tumors were downloaded, normalized, and analyzed. Results: Sporadic lines had no alterations in FH and metabolic analysis demonstrated normal oxygen consumption and minimal lactate production, in contrast to highly glycolytic UOK262. Also unlike UOK262, the sporadic papillary kidney cancer lines were not sensitive to glucose withdrawal, had low levels of ROS, and had normal mitochondria membrane potential. Principal component analysis (PCA) demonstrated that HLRCC tumor specimens are very different from sporadic papillary tumors at the molecular level. Conclusions: Our study of established sporadic papillary RCC and fumarate hydratase-deficient HLRCC cell line together with analysis of available gene expression profiles demonstrates that these sporadic papillary kidney cancer cell lines appear to have a distinct metabolic profile from those in the fumarate hydratase deficient kidney cancer cell line. Understanding the metabolic basis of papillary kidney cancer could provide the foundation for the development of targeted approaches to therapy for patients with this disease.

Study Objective

Cancer cell lines are widely used in basic research to study cancer development, growth, invasion, or metastasis. They are also used for the development and screening of anticancer drugs. However, there are no clear criteria for choosing the most suitable cell lines among the wide variety of cancer cell lines commercially available for research, and the choice is often based on previously published reports. Here, we investigated the characteristics of liver cancer cell lines by analyzing the gene expression data available in the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia. Unsupervised clustering analysis of 28 liver cancer cell lines yielded two main clusters. One cluster showed a gene expression pattern similar to that of hepatocytes, and the other showed a pattern similar to that of fibroblasts. Analysis of hepatocellular carcinoma gene expression profiles available in The Cancer Genome Atlas showed that the gene expression patterns in most hepatoma tissues were similar to those in the hepatocyte-like cluster. With respect to liver cancer research, our findings may be useful for selecting an appropriate cell line for a specific study objective. Furthermore, our approach of utilizing a public database for comparing the properties of cell lines could be an attractive cell line selection strategy that can be applied to other fields of research.
