Global analysis of chromosome 1 genes among patients with lung adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma, large-cell carcinoma, small-cell carcinoma, or non-cancer

Cancer Metastasis Rev. 2015 Jun;34(2):249-64. doi: 10.1007/s10555-015-9558-0.

Abstract

The present study aimed at investigating genetic variations, specific signal pathways, or biological processes of chromosome 1 genes between subtypes and stages of lung cancer and prediction of selected targeting genes for patient survival rate. About 537 patients with lung adenocarcinoma (ADC), 140 with lung squamous carcinoma (SCC), 9 with lung large-cell carcinoma (LCC), 56 with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), and 590 without caner were integrated from 16 databases and analyzed in the present study. Three (ASPM, CDC20, KIAA1799) or 28 genes significantly up- or down-expressed in four subtypes of lung cancer. The activated cell division and down-regulated immune responses were identified in patients with lung cancer. Keratinocyte development associated genes S100 and SPRR families dominantly up-expressed in SCC and AKT3 and NRAS in SCLC. Subtype-specific genes of ADC, SCC, LCC, or SCLC were also identified. C1orf106, CAPN8, CDC20, COL11A1, CRABP2, and NBPF9 up-expressed at four stages of ADC. Fifty six related with keratinocytes or potassium channels up-expressed in three stages of SCC. CDC20, IL10, ECM1, GABPB2, CRABP2, and COL11A1 significantly predicted the poor overall survival of ADC patients and S100A2 and TIMM17A in SCC patients. Our data indicate that a number of altered chromosome 1 genes have the subtype and stage specificities of lung cancer and can be considered as diagnostic and prognosis biomarkers.
