Next Generation Sequencing for Potential Regulated Genes and Micro-RNAs of Early Growth Response-1 in the Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The protein journal(2022)
摘要
Esophageal cancer has a poor prognosis due to its aggressiveness and low survival rate. In Ease Asia, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) outnumbers esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). The ESCC patients still have high mortality despite modern surgical resection and neoadjuvant treatment. Determining patient and outcome prognostic factors is critical in ESCC treatment. In esophageal cancer, early growth response-1 (Egr-1) is a tumor suppressor gene, but the mechanism and associated genes are unknown. The study utilizes RNA interference method, the platform of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and bioinformatics analysis to investigate the influences after the Egr-1 gene slicing on the ESCC cells. The heat maps of differentially expressed mRNA and microRNAs were analyzed using the algorithm, Burrows-Wheller Aligner. The study showed that the expression of 51 mRNA and 26 microRNAs have significant changes in ESCC cells after Egr-1 knockdown. The KEGG enrichment analysis linked Egr-1-regulated genes and microRNAs. Egr-1 interactions with these genes and microRNAs may be important in tumor progression. In conclusions, this study provided the transcriptome patterns and relating pathway analysis for Egr-1 knockdown in ESCC cells. The mRNA and microRNAs altered by Egr-1 gene silencing might provide key information in the treatment of ESCC.
