J Transl Med (2020) 18:40 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12967-020-02229-8 Journal of Translational Medicine RESEARCH Open Access Bioinformatics-based screening of key genes for transformation of liver cirrhosis to hepatocellular carcinoma Chen Hao Jiang1,2, Xin Yuan1,2, Jiang Fen Li1,2, Yu Fang Xie1,2, An Zhi Zhang1,2, Xue Li Wang1,2, Lan Yang1,2, Chun Xia Liu1,2, Wei Hua Liang1,2, Li Juan Pang1,2, Hong Zou1,2, Xiao Bin Cui1,2, Xi Hua Shen1,2, Yan Qi1,2, Jin Fang Jiang1,2, Wen Yi Gu4, Feng Li1,2,3 and Jian Ming Hu1,2* Abstract Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver tumour, and is closely related to liver cirrhosis. Previous studies have focussed on the pathogenesis of liver cirrhosis developing into HCC, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. The aims of the present study were to identify key genes related to the transformation of cirrhosis into HCC, and explore the associated molecular mechanisms. Methods: GSE89377, GSE17548, GSE63898 and GSE54236 mRNA microarray datasets from Gene Expression Omni- bus (GEO) were analysed to obtain diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) between HCC and liver cirrhosis tissues, and network analysis of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) was carried out. String and Cytoscape were used to analyse modules and identify hub genes, Kaplan–Meier Plotter and Oncomine databases were used to explore relationships between hub genes and disease occurrence, development and prognosis of HCC, and the molecular mechanism of the main hub gene was probed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway analysis.

  • The Regulatory Roles of Phosphatases in Cancer
    Oncogene (2014) 33, 939–953 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/14 www.nature.com/onc REVIEW The regulatory roles of phosphatases in cancer J Stebbing1, LC Lit1, H Zhang, RS Darrington, O Melaiu, B Rudraraju and G Giamas The relevance of potentially reversible post-translational modifications required for controlling cellular processes in cancer is one of the most thriving arenas of cellular and molecular biology. Any alteration in the balanced equilibrium between kinases and phosphatases may result in development and progression of various diseases, including different types of cancer, though phosphatases are relatively under-studied. Loss of phosphatases such as PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10), a known tumour suppressor, across tumour types lends credence to the development of phosphatidylinositol 3--kinase inhibitors alongside the use of phosphatase expression as a biomarker, though phase 3 trial data are lacking. In this review, we give an updated report on phosphatase dysregulation linked to organ-specific malignancies. Oncogene (2014) 33, 939–953; doi:10.1038/onc.2013.80; published online 18 March 2013 Keywords: cancer; phosphatases; solid tumours GASTROINTESTINAL MALIGNANCIES abs in sera were significantly associated with poor survival in Oesophageal cancer advanced ESCC, suggesting that they may have a clinical utility in Loss of PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on ESCC screening and diagnosis.5 chromosome 10) expression in oesophageal cancer is frequent, Cao et al.6 investigated the role of protein tyrosine phosphatase, among other gene alterations characterizing this disease.

Compared with the other breast cancer subtypes, Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a higher probability of recurrence and is prone to distant metastasis. To reveal the underlying disease mechanisms and identify more effective biomarkers for TNBC and breast cancer metastasis. Methods: Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis were used for investigating the role of overlapping differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Hub genes among these DEGs were determined by the protein- protein interactions network analysis and CytoHubba. Oncomine databases were used for verifying the clinical relevance of hub genes.

  • CDC25 Phosphatases in Cancer Cells…
    REVIEWS CDC25 phosphatases in cancer cells: key players? Good targets? Rose Boutros*, Valérie Lobjois* and Bernard Ducommun*‡ Abstract | Cell division cycle 25 (CDC25) phosphatases regulate key transitions between cell cycle phases during normal cell division, and in the event of DNA damage they are key targets of the checkpoint machinery that ensures genetic stability. Taking only this into consideration, it is not surprising that CDC25 overexpression has been reported in a significant number of human cancers. However, in light of the significant body of evidence detailing the stringent complexity with which CDC25 activities are regulated, the significance of CDC25 overexpression in a subset of cancers and its association with poor prognosis are proving difficult to assess. We will focus on the roles of CDC25 phosphatases in both normal and abnormal cell proliferation, provide a critical assessment of the current data on CDC25 overexpression in cancer, and discuss both current and future therapeutic strategies for targeting CDC25 activity in cancer treatment.

Background: HER2-overexpression promotes malignancy by modulating signalling molecules, which include PTPs/DSPs (protein tyrosine and dual-specificity phosphatases). Our aim was to identify PTPs/DSPs displaying HER2-associated expression alterations. Methods: HER2 activity was modulated in MDA-MB-453 cells and PTPs/DSPs expression was analysed with a DNA oligoar- ray, by RT-PCR and immunoblotting. Two public breast tumor datasets were analysed to identify PTPs/DSPs differentially ex- pressed in HER2-positive tumors. Results: In cells (1) HER2-inhibition up-regulated 4 PTPs (PTPRA, PTPRK, PTPN11, PTPN18) and 11 DSPs (7 MKPs [MAP Kinase Phosphatases], 2 PTP4, 2 MTMRs [Myotubularin related phosphatases]) and down-regulated 7 DSPs (2 MKPs, 2 MTMRs, CDKN3, PTEN, CDC25C); (2) HER2-activation with EGF affected 10 DSPs (5 MKPs, 2 MTMRs, PTP4A1, CDKN3, CDC25B) and PTPN13; 8 DSPs were found in both groups. Furthermore, 7 PTPs/DSPs displayed also altered protein level. Analysis of 2 breast cancer datasets identified 6 differentially expressed DSPs: DUSP6, strongly up-regulated in both datasets; DUSP10 and CDC25B, up-regulated; PTP4A2, CDC14A and MTMR11 down-regulated in one dataset.
