[PMID: 38252499 PMCID: PMC11005806 DOI: 10.1080/15384101.2024.2305535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. The oncogenic role of Matrin-3 (MATR3), an a nuclear matrix protein, in HCC remains largely unknown. Here, we document the biological function of MATR3 in HCC based on integrated bioinformatics analysis and functional studies. According to the TCGA database, MATR3 expression was found to be positively correlated with clinicopathological characteristics in HCC. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Kaplan-Meier (KM) curve displayed the diagnostic and prognostic potentials of MATR3 in HCC patients, respectively. Pathway enrichment analysis represented the enrichment of MATR3 in various molecular pathways, including the regulation of the cell cycle. Functional assays in HCC cell lines showed reduced proliferation of cells with stable silencing of MATR3. At the same time, the suppressive effects of MATR3 depletion on HCC development were verified by xenograft tumor experiments. Moreover, MATR3 repression also resulted in cell cycle arrest by modulating the expression of cell cycle-associated genes. In addition, the interaction of MATR3 with cell cycle-regulating factors in HCC cells was further corroborated with co-immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry (Co-IP/MS). Furthermore, CIBERSORT and TIMER analyses showed an association between MATR3 and immune infiltration in HCC. In general, this study highlights the novel oncogenic function of MATR3 in HCC, which could comprehensively address how aberrant changes in the cell cycle promote HCC development. MATR3 might serve as a prognostic predictor and therapeutic target for HCC patients.

[PMID: 38012642 PMCID: PMC10680259 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04753-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiosensitivity of rectal cancer is related to the radiotherapy efficacy and prognosis of patients with rectal cancer, and the genes and molecular mechanisms related to radiosensitivity of rectal cancer have not been clarified. We explored the radiosensitivity related genes of rectal cancer at a multi omics level. METHODS mRNA expression data and rectum adenocarcinoma (READ) data were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omnibus Database (GEO) (GSE150082, GSE60331, GSE46862, GSE46862). Differentially expressed genes between radiotherapy sensitive group and radiotherapy insensitive group were screened. GO analysis and KEGG pathway analysis were performed for differentially expressed genes. Among the differentially expressed genes, five core genes associated with rectal cancer prognosis were selected using random survival forest analysis. For these five core genes, drug sensitivity analysis, immune cell infiltration analysis, TISIDB database immune gene correlation analysis, GSEA enrichment analysis, construction of Nomogram prediction model, transcriptional regulatory network analysis, and qRT-PCR validation was performed on human rectal adenocarcinoma tissue. RESULTS We found that 600 up-regulated genes and 553 down-regulated genes were significantly different between radiotherapy sensitive group and radiotherapy insensitive group in rectal cancer. Five key genes, TOP2A, MATR3, APOL6, JOSD1, and HOXC6, were finally screened by random survival forest analysis. These five key genes were associated with different immune cell infiltration, immune-related genes, and chemosensitivity. A comprehensive transcriptional regulatory network was constructed based on these five core genes. qRT-PCR revealed that MATR3 expression was different in rectal cancer tissues and adjacent non-cancerous tissues, while APOL6, HOXC6, JOSD1, and TOP2A expression was not different. CONCLUSION Five radiosensitivity-related genes related to the prognosis of rectal cancer: TOP2A, MATR3, APOL6, JOSD1, HOXC6, are involved in multiple processes such as immune cell infiltration, immune-related genes, chemosensitivity, signaling pathways and transcriptional regulatory networks and may be potential biomarkers for radiotherapy of rectal cancer.

Abstract
Chromosomal rearrangements of the human KMT2A/MLL gene are associated with de novo as well as therapy-induced infant, pediatric, and adult acute leukemias. Here, we present the data obtained from 3401 acute leukemia patients that have been analyzed between 2003 and 2022. Genomic breakpoints within the KMT2A gene and the involved translocation partner genes (TPGs) and KMT2A-partial tandem duplications (PTDs) were determined. Including the published data from the literature, a total of 107 in-frame KMT2A gene fusions have been identified so far. Further 16 rearrangements were out-of-frame fusions, 18 patients had no partner gene fused to 5'-KMT2A, two patients had a 5'-KMT2A deletion, and one ETV6::RUNX1 patient had an KMT2A insertion at the breakpoint. The seven most frequent TPGs and PTDs account for more than 90% of all recombinations of the KMT2A, 37 occur recurrently and 63 were identified so far only once. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the KMT2A recombinome in acute leukemia patients. Besides the scientific gain of information, genomic breakpoint sequences of these patients were used to monitor minimal residual disease (MRD). Thus, this work may be directly translated from the bench to the bedside of patients and meet the clinical needs to improve patient survival.
