Abstract:
Objective:To find the potential therapeutic targets and prognostic predictor by digging and screening differentially expressed genes (DEGs) for breast cancer bone metastasis in bioinformatics databases,and the cell location,molecular function and potential molecular mechanisms of DEGs were explored.Methods:By screening and downloading breast cancer bone metastasis-related expression profiles in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO),RStudio was used to evaluate the quality of these profiles,select differentially expressed genes (DEGs),draw heat maps and volcano maps.Finally,Gene Ontology (GO) functional annotation and Kaplan Meier Plotter were performed respectively.Results:After screening GSE137842 and GSE51232,44 common DEGs were obtained,including 34 downregulated DEGs and 10 upregulated DEGs.A total of 18 related DEGs were obtained through GO enrichment analysis and survival analysis.GO enrichment analysis revealed that related molecular functions were mainly concentrated in ligase activity,including downregulated genes ZNRF3,RNF182,and UHRF1.Biological processes were mainly concentrated in the process of apoptosis and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor signaling pathways,involving a total of 3 upregulated genes ELMO1,SULF1,and DAPK1.After the survival analysis by Kaplan Meier Plotter online analysis tool,12 DEGs consistent with gene expression and closely related to relapse-free survival (RFS) or overall survival (OS) were all down-regulated genes.A total of 16 related DEGs were obtained through GO enrichment analysis and survival analysis.Conclusion:The 16 DEGs obtained by GO enrichment analysis and survival analysis are ELMO1,SULF1,DAPK1,UHRF1,TOX2,BMPR1B,NXPE3,AEBP2,ADIPOR2,GPR63,ZNRF3,NECAP1,SLAIN1,MICB,POPDC3,ALKBH6 can be used as treatment targets and 12 DEGs obtained by survival analysis can be used as prognostic indicators for breast cancer patients with bone metastasis including TOX2,BMPR1B,NXPE3,AEBP2,ADIPOR2,GPR63,ZNRF3,NECAP1,SLAIN1,MICB,POPDC3,ALKBH6.
