Measuring the differential expression of the major hypermethylated tumor suppressor genes in tissues of primary hepatocellular carcinoma
Background
Hepatocarcinogenesis is a multifactorial process that arises from a integration of genetic and epigenetic anomalies leading to abnormal gene expression and function. It is difficult to characterize HCC with a single biomarker. Our study aimed at detecting the expression of a panel of 8 methylated genes (SOCS1, APC, Gadd45b, CDKN1B, P15, PAX6, STAT1 and MSH2) as regulatory factors among Egyptian patients with HCC.
Methods
This study was conducted on HCC tissue samples of 30 Egyptian patients in comparison with their non-cancerous adjacent cirrhotic tissue as a control. Tissue samples were obtained from patients who have undergone living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) or liver resection at El Sahel Teaching Hospital (Cairo, Egypt). A special Custom designed PCR Arrays was used to analyze the expression profiles of chosen methylated genes associated with HCC.
Results
Expression of SOCS1, APC, Gadd45b, CDKN1B, P15, PAX6, STAT1 and MSH2 were lower in the HCC tissue compared to the cirrhotic tissue (pvalue = 0.015, 0.081, 0.004, 0.027, 0.211, 0.015, 0.025 and 0.0001 respectively). 5 genes (SOCS1, APC, GAdd45b, CDKN1B, and MSH2) showed the ability to be used as diagnostic biomarkers for HCC with high sensitivity and specificity values at cut off values: 1.05, 1.17, 0.995, 0.546, and 0.125 respectively. As for the other 3 genes (P15, PAX6, STAT1), PAX6 gene has the highest sensitivity at a cut off value of 0.3364. A significant negative correlation was shown between alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and 5 of the studied genes (SOCS1, APC, Gadd45b, STAT1, and MSH2).
Conclusions
Expression of the selected hypermethylated genes (SOCS1, APC, Gadd45b, CDKN1B, P15, PAX6, STAT1 and MSH2) in HCC tissue samples was lower than adjacent tissue. Their role should be further studied to solve the mystery that surrounds the pathogenesis of HCC.
