Integrated bioinformatic analysis unveils significant genes and pathways in the pathogenesis of supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor.

Abstract:

Purpose:This study aimed to explore significant genes and pathways involved in the pathogenesis of supratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor (sPNET). Materials and methods:Gene expression profile of GSE14295 was downloaded from publicly available Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out in primary sPNET samples compared with normal fetal and adult brain reference samples (sPNET vs fetal brain and sPNET vs adult brain). Pathway enrichment analysis of these DEGs was conducted, followed by protein-protein interaction (PPI) network construction and significant module selection. Additionally, transcription factors (TFs) regulating the common DEGs in the two comparison groups were identified, and the regulatory network was constructed. Results:In total, 526 DEGs (99 up- and 427 downregulated) in sPNET vs fetal brain and 815 DEGs (200 up- and 615 downregulated) in sPNET vs adult brain were identified. DEGs in sPNET vs fetal brain and sPNET vs adult brain were associated with calcium signaling pathway, cell cycle, and p53 signaling pathway. CDK1, CDC20, BUB1B, and BUB1 were hub nodes in the PPI networks of DEGs in sPNET vs fetal brain and sPNET vs adult brain. Significant modules were extracted from the PPI networks. In addition, 64 upregulated and 200 downregulated overlapping DEGs were identified in both sPNET vs fetal brain and sPNET vs adult brain. The genes involved in the regulatory network upon overlapping DEGs and the TFs were correlated with calcium signaling pathway. Conclusion:Calcium signaling pathway and several genes (CDK1, CDC20, BUB1B, and BUB1) may play important roles in the pathogenesis of sPNET.
