Diagnosing FM is challenging due to its complex symptoms and lack of specific biomarkers. To characterize the gene expression profile in FM and identify target genes and potential biomarkers for FM. The RNA-sequencing data (RNA-seq) from FM patients and healthy controls were downloaded from the GEO database and analyzed in R to detect differentially expressed genes (DEGs). A weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was conducted on all genes to identify FM-associated modules. The intersection of DEGs with key module genes was used to build four machine learning models, with the top features from the support vector machine model tested for drug sensitivity to identify therapeutic targets. Expression of the top five genes was validated using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. We identified 1599 DEGs between FM and healthy control. WGCNA revealed that 267 genes in the pink module were correlated with FM. The overlapped 76 key DEGs allow us to build machine-learning models that predict FM with high accuracy (area under the curve = 0.877). The top five genes that are contributing to the model were tested for potential drug targets. Drug sensitivity analysis showed a strong correlation between HAVCR1 and 10 tyrosine kinase inhibitors among the top gene-drug relationships. This study identified key FM-associated gene targets, demonstrating that their expression profiles can be used to predict FM risk.

However, the role of DNA methylation, a key epigenetic modification, in UCEC prognosis prediction and clinical treatment strategies has rarely been studied. This study utilized publicly available datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and online bioinformatics tools to analyze the differential methylation and expression of six selected genes: TP53, PTEN, PTX3, TNK1, PPP2R1A, and KLRG2. These genes were chosen based on their known roles in cancer-related pathways, previous associations with oncogenic processes, and preliminary data showing significant changes in methylation and expression in UCEC compared with normal tissues. We integrated mRNA expression and DNA methylation data with the MethylMix method to identify genes with methylation-driven expression changes. Our analysis revealed that these genes exhibit distinct differential expression and methylation patterns in UCEC, suggesting potential regulatory mechanisms. The expression patterns across the six genes were observed, and TP53, TNK1, PPP2R1A, and KLRG2 were upregulated in tumors, and PTX3 was downregulated in tumors. At the same time, there was no significant change in the expression of PTEN gene. The differential expression correlates with changes in methylation, providing insights into the gene regulation occurring in UCEC. Additionally, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed that the expression levels of specific genes, particularly PTX3, TNK1, and KLRG1, are significantly associated with overall survival in UCEC patients. Higher expression of these genes correlated with poorer survival outcomes, suggesting their potential as prognostic markers. In contrast, the expression of TP53, PTEN, and PPP2R1A did not show a significant impact on patient survival. The functional importance of these genes was investigated utilizing pathway enrichment and protein-protein interaction networks. Additionally, pathway enrichment analysis indicated these genes are involved in critical cancer pathways. The findings highlight the importance of integrating epigenetic and transcriptomic data to understand UCEC pathogenesis and suggest that the identified genes could serve as potential biomarkers for early diagnosis and treatment strategies.</p>","PeriodicalId":56317,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Eukaryotic Gene Expression","volume":"35 2","pages":"27-47"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143434419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The behaviors of lung cancer cells were detected using CCK-8, colony formation assay, and transwell assays. MeRIP and luciferase assays were conducted to FTO-mediated RNA hypomethylation. In vivo assays were performed to verify the roles of FTO in NSCLC. High levels of FTO in NSCLC patients predicted poor outcomes.

Mechanically, FTO downregulated KCTD11 expression through promoting the RNA hypomethylation of KCTD11, the expression of which was decreased in NSCLC. KCTD11 knockdown attenuated the effects of FTO and promoted the malignancy of lung cancer. In summary, FTO functions as an oncogene in NSCLC via downregulating KCTD11. Therefore, FTO/KCTD11 can be a novel target for NSCLC.</p>","PeriodicalId":56317,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Eukaryotic Gene Expression","volume":"35 6","pages":"15-25"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145093275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
