Molecular-level effects of eribulin and paclitaxel on breast cancer based on differential co-expression network analysis.

چکیده
We investigated the effects of eribulin and paclitaxel on breast cancer (BC) by exploring molecular biomarkers and pathways. Co-expression networks were constructed by differentially co-expressed genes and links, and centralities were analyzed to explore the hub genes. Pathway-enrichment analysis was performed. The hub genes were validated using the polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. A total of 132 and 153 differentially expressed genes were identified in BC cell lines treated with eribulin and paclitaxel, respectively. Six hub genes were identified in two co-expression networks. The spliceosome pathway was the mutually significant pathway. The validation analysis was basically consistent with the bioinformatics. We successfully identified several hub genes and pathways relevant to the effects of eribulin and paclitaxel on BC based on the network analysis.

Evaluation of miR-34a Effect on CCND1 mRNA Level and Sensitization of Breast Cancer Cell Lines to Paclitaxel
Background: A growing body of literature has revealed the effective role of miR-34a, as a tumor suppressor and regulator of expression of multiple targets in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. This study aimed at evaluating the potential effects of miR-34a alone or in combination with paclitaxel on breast cancer cells. Methods: After miR-34a transduction by lentiviral vectors in two MCF-7 an...
متن کاملGene Expression Profiling Reveals Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) Genes Can Selectively Differentiate Eribulin Sensitive Breast Cancer Cells
OBJECTIVES Eribulin mesylate is a synthetic macrocyclic ketone analog of the marine sponge natural product halichondrin B. Eribulin is a mechanistically unique inhibitor of microtubule dynamics. In this study, we investigated whether selective signal pathways were associated with eribulin activity compared to paclitaxel, which stabilizes microtubules, based on gene expression profiling of cell ...
متن کاملIdentification of Prognostic Genes in Her2-enriched Breast Cancer by Gene Co-Expression Net-work Analysis
Introduction: HER2-enriched subtype of breast cancer has a worse prognosis than luminal subtypes. Recently, the discovery of targeted therapies in other groups of breast cancer has increased patient survival. The aim of this study was to identify genes that affect the overall survival of this group of patients based on a systems biology approach. Methods: Gene expression data and clinical infor...

PURPOSE The present study was designed to explore the significant biomarkers and pathway-related modules for predicting the effects of eribulin relative to paclitaxel in ovarian cancer. METHODS The gene expression data E-GEOD-50831 were downloaded from the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened. Subsequently, differential coexpres...
متن کاملABCB1 and ABCC11 confer resistance to eribulin in breast cancer cell lines
This study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the resistance of breast cancer to eribulin. Seven eribulin-resistant breast cancer cell lines (MCF7/E, BT474/E, ZR75-1/E, SKBR3/E, MDA-MB-231/E, Hs578T/E, and MDA-MB-157/E) were established. mRNA and protein expression of ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) and subfamily C member 11 (ABCC11) increased in all eribulin-resista...
