Identification of molecular mechanisms of glutamine in pancreatic cancer
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of the present study was to explore the critical genes and molecular mechanisms in pancreatic cancer (PC) cells with glutamine. By analyzing microarray data GSE17632 from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, the DEGs between PC cells treated with glutamine and without glutamine were evaluated. Additionally, function enrichment analyses and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network construction of DEGs were performed. Network module and literature mining analyses were performed to analyze the critical DEGs in PC cells. In total, 495 genes were selected as DEGs between control and glutamine cells in PC. These DEGs were mainly enriched in several Gene Ontology (GO) terms in biological process, cellular components and molecular function. Additionally, they were also enriched in certain pathways, including metabolic pathways and the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) signaling pathway. MYC, heat shock 70kDa protein 5 (HSPA5), interleukin 8 (IL8), and chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) were hub genes in the PPI network. Furthermore, two sub-network modules of PPI network and two co-occurrence networks were obtained. The DEGs of MYC, HSPA5, IL18 and CXCR4 may exert important roles in molecular mechanisms of PC cells with glutamine.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women. Chemotherapy is the main strategy in the treatment of this disease especially in the advanced form of the disease. Despite the recent progress in the development of new chemotherapy, the effectiveness of these drugs has dramatically reduced due to multidrug resistance. The phenotype of multidrug resistance (MDR) can occur through different me...

Background: Deregulation of FOXO3a gene which belongs to Forkhead box O (FOXO) transcription factors, can cause cancer (e.g. breast cancer). FOXO factors have important role in ubiquitination, acetylation, de-acetylation, protein-protein interactions and phosphorylation. Understanding the regulation and mechanisms of FOXO3a can lead to cancer treatment. The aim of this study recent association...

Objective(s): As the second cause of cancer death, gastric cancer (GC) is one of the eminent dilemmas all over the world, therefore investigating the molecular mechanisms involved in this cancer is pivotal. Unrestricted proliferation is one of the characteristics of cancerous cells, which is due to deficiency in cell regulatory systems. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as critical re...

Fasting does have remarkable benefits in the treatment of cancer and another diseases such as metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and a multitude of other chronic diseases. It has been determined that fasting could play an important role during cancer treatment and progression via the regulation of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) as well as other growth factors. Also, it has been shown that fast...
