Identifying cancer driver genes is crucial for elucidating the molecular mechanisms of cancer, advancing targeted therapies, and uncovering novel biomarkers. Based on integrated analysis of Multi-Omics data and Network models, we present MONet, a novel cancer driver gene identification algorithm. Our method utilizes two graph neural network algorithms on protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks to extract feature vector representations for each gene. These feature vectors are subsequently concatenated and fed into a multi-layer perceptron model (MLP) to perform semi-supervised identification of cancer driver genes. For each mutated gene, MONet assigns the probability of being potential driver, with genes identified in at least two PPI networks selected as candidate driver genes. When applied to pan-cancer datasets, MONet demonstrated robustness across various PPI networks, outperforming baseline models in terms of both the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and the area under the precision-recall curve. Notably, MONet identified 37 novel driver genes that were missed by other methods, including 29 genes such as APOBEC2, GDNF, and PRELP, which are corroborated by existing literature, underscoring their critical roles in cancer development and progression. Through the MONet framework, we successfully identified known and novel candidate cancer driver genes, providing biologically meaningful insights into cancer mechanisms.</p>","PeriodicalId":12163,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Biology and Medicine","volume":"250 ","pages":"10399"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11834253/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143448695","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stem cells derived from oral tissues and umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown potential in both preclinical and clinical studies for bone tissue regeneration. However, their limited differentiation capacity and wound healing abilities necessitate the exploration of alternative cell sources. In this study, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using a safe, nonviral and mRNA-based approach from human periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLF), an easily accessible cell source. These iPSCs were subsequently differentiated into MSCs, referred to as induced MSCs (iMSCs). The resulting iMSCs were homogeneous, highly proliferative, and possessed anti-inflammatory properties, suggesting their potential as a superior alternative to traditional MSCs for regenerative therapy. These iMSCs demonstrated trilineage differentiation potential, giving rise to osteocytes, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. The iMSC-derived osteocytes (iOSTs) were homogeneous, patient-specific and showed excellent attachment and growth on commercial collagen-based membranes, highlighting their suitability for bone tissue regeneration applications.

Our data suggests that within 48 h of hospital admission, COVID-19 patients undergo a protease storm with significantly elevated neutrophil elastase (p < 0.001) and lymphocyte granzyme B (p < 0.01), while, anti-protease activity is significantly increased, including alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT; p < 0.001) and alpha-1-antichymotrypsin (ACT; p < 0.001).

Null mutation of either the periostin (<i>Postn</i>) gene or the osteopontin (<i>Spp1</i>) gene can impair bone fracture healing. However, the cell and molecular pathways affected by loss of POSTN or SPP1 which lead to impaired fracture healing are not well understood. To identify potential pathways, a detailed radiological, histological, and immunohistochemical analysis of femur fracture healing in <i>Postn</i>-null (<i>Postn</i>KO), <i>Spp1</i>-null (<i>Spp1</i>KO), and normal (WT) mice was performed. Apparent changes in specific protein levels identified by immunohistochemistry were confirmed by mRNA quantitation. Comparisons between the <i>Postn</i>KO and <i>Spp1</i>KO fracture calluses were confounded by interactions between the two genes; loss of <i>Postn</i> reduced <i>Spp1</i> expression and loss of <i>Spp1</i> reduced <i>Postn</i> expression. Consequently, alterations in fracture healing between mice heterozygous for the <i>Postn</i>-null allele (<i>Postn</i>HET) as well as the <i>Postn</i>KO and <i>Spp1</i>KO mice were similar. Calluses from <i>Postn</i>HET, <i>Postn</i>KO, and <i>Spp1</i>KO mice all had dysmorphic chondro-osseous junctions and reduced numbers of osteoclasts. The dysmorphic chondro-osseous junctions in the <i>Postn</i>HET, <i>Postn</i>KO, and <i>Spp1</i>KO calluses were associated with reduced numbers of MMP-13 expressing hypertrophic chondrocytes, consistent with delayed cartilage resolution. Unlike collagen X expressing callus chondrocytes, chondrocytes only expressed MMP-13 when localized to the chondro-osseous junction or after traversing the chondro-osseous junction. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression also appeared to be reduced in osteoclasts from the <i>Postn</i>HET, <i>Postn</i>KO, and <i>Spp1</i>KO calluses, including in those osteoclasts localized at the chondro-osseous junction. The results indicate that POSTN and SPP1 are necessary for normal chondro-osseous junction formation and that signaling from the chondro-osseous junction, possibly from COX-2 expressing osteoclasts, regulates callus vasculogenesis and chondrocyte hypertrophy necessary for endochondral ossification during fracture healing.</p>","PeriodicalId":12163,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Biology and Medicine","volume":"249 ","pages":"10066"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11794000/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143254892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
