Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a highly recurrent form of cancer arising from the oral epithelium, which is the result of mutational change due to etiological factors such as tobacco, smoking, chewing of areca nuts, and alcohol consumption. OSCC occurrence has been observed to be prevalent in different regions of Pacific countries and in most Asian countries. Despite the accessibility of the oral cavity, OSCC is diagnosed at an extremely late stage of pathogenic tumor node metastasis pTNM (III–IV), resulting in a poor prognosis for the individual. Therefore, it is important to make definitive, early, and efficient diagnoses. Owing to the development of omic-natured studies, the presence of proteins, transcribed elements, metabolic products, and even microflora detected in saliva helps us to select biomarkers, which is an especially exciting potential because of the availability and the non-invasive nature of sample collection. Since the discovery of circular RNA (circRNA) by Sanger sequencing, it has been reported to play a pivotal role in several human diseases, including cancer. circRNA functions as a microRNA (miRNA) sponge in the regulation of mRNA expression, forming the circRNA-miRNA regulatory axis. In the case of OSCC, overexpression of different circRNAs exhibits both tumor-progressive and tumor-suppressive effects.
This work elucidates the idea of finding probable critical genes linked to breast adenocarcinoma. In this study, the GEO database gene expression profile data set (GSE70951) was retrieved to look for genes that were expressed variably across breast adenocarcinoma samples and healthy tissue samples. The genes were confirmed to be part of the PPI network for breast cancer pathogenesis and prognosis. In Cytoscape, the CytoHubba module was used to discover the hub genes. For correlation analysis, the predictive biomarker of these hub genes, as well as GEPIA, was used. A total of 155 (85 upregulated genes and 70 downregulated genes) were identified. By integrating the PPI and CytoHubba data, the major key/hub genes were selected from the results. The KM plotter is employed to find the prognosis of those major pivot genes, and the outcome shows worse prognosis in breast adenocarcinoma patients. Further experimental validation will show the predicted expression levels of those hub genes. The overall result of our study gives the consequences for the identification of a critical gene to ease the molecular targeting therapy for breast adenocarcinoma. It could be used as a prognostic biomarker and could lead to therapy options for breast adenocarcinoma.
Perception of hub genes engaged in metastatic gastric cancer (mGC) promotes novel ways to diagnose and treat the illness. The goal of this investigation is to recognize the hub genes and reveal its molecular mechanism. In order to explore the potential facts for gastric cancer, the expression profiles of two different datasets were used (GSE161533 and GSE54129). The genes were confirmed to be part of the PPI network for gastric cancer pathogenesis and prognosis. In Cytoscape, the CytoHubba module was used to discover the hub genes. Responsible hub genes were identified. Data from Kaplan–Meier plotter confirmed the predictive value of these distinct genes in various stages of gastric malignancy. Upregulated and downregulated genes were identified to utilize for further analysis. Positive regulation by a host of viral process, positive regulation of granulocyte differentiation, negative regulation of histone H3–K9 methylation were found in DEGs analysis. In addition, five KEGG pathways were identified as an essential enhancer that include nucleotide excision repair; base excision repair; DNA replication; homologous recombination; and complement and coagulation cascades. POLE, BUB1B, POLD4, C3, BLM, CCT7, PRPF31, APEX1, PSMA7, and CDC45 were chosen as hub genes after combining the PPI results. Our study recommends that BUB1B, CCT7, APEX1, PSMA7, and CDC45 might be potential biomarkers for gastric cancer. These biomarkers are upregulated genes. Therefore, suppression of these genes will increase the survival rate in gastric cancer patients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
