IDENTIFICATION of POTENTIAL KEY GENES ASSOCIATED with CARDIAC FIBROSIS by RNA SEQUENCING DATA ANALYSIS Introduction Cardiac Fibr Acta Medica Mediterranea, 2019, 35: 2315 IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL KEY GENES ASSOCIATED WITH CARDIAC FIBROSIS BY RNA SEQUENCING DATA ANALYSIS DANDAN LIU, HAIZHU WANG, XIAO HAN, CAIPING HAN, FENGBO REN Department of Cardiology, Zhoukou Central Hospital, Zhoukou 466000, Henan, China ABSTRACT Introduction: Cardiac fibrosis is central to a broad constellation of cardiovascular diseases with similar pathophysiologic companions, and is associated with cardiac dysfunction, arrhythmogenesis, and adverse outcome. However, the option of effective treatment strategies is limited due to the insufficient understanding of the mechanisms for cardiac fibrosis. Materials and methods: The RNA sequencing data (GSE97358) comprising 84 TGF-β1-stimulated samples and 84 paired unstimulated samples of cultured primary human cardiac fibroblast from GEO database was used to explore crucial genes and pathways involved in cardiac fibrosis. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using edgeR package in R. Pro- tein-protein interaction (PPI) network and module analyses were performed and visualized using STRING and Cytoscape. GO (gene ontology) and KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) enrichment analyses were performed by clusterprofiler. The hub genes extracted from PPI were identified by the CytoHubba plug-in and the transcription factor(TF)-hub gene network was further constructed by the iRegulon plug-in. Results: Totally, 647 DEGs were initially screened out in TGF-β1-stimulated primary human cardiac fibroblast. Twenty hub genes (9 up-regulated: S1PR5, F2RL3, GPR68, CXCR5, KISS1, GAL, LPAR5, HTR1D, PLCB4; 11 down-regulated: CXCL1, GPR65, CYSLTR2, EDNRA, CXCL6, F2R, GNG2 F2RL2, SSTR1, TAS2R1, HTR2B) were further identified. Wnt signaling and neu- roactive ligand-receptor interaction signaling pathways enriched were ultimately identified as the key pathways involved in cardiac fibrosis. Seven TFs (RELB, FOS, SREBF2, PURA, TBX21, IRF1 and IRF4) were identified for the TF-hub gene networks. Conclusions: Our results may provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms and treatments of cardiac fibrosis. How- ever, further molecular biological experiments are required to confirm these findings. Keywords: cardiac fibrosis, differentially expressed genes, bioinformatics analysis, interaction network.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Walnut Street R2-E380, Indianapolis, IN 46202, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-317-274-3972 Received: 28 August 2019; Accepted: 8 October 2019; Published: 10 October 2019 Abstract: Since the clear demonstration of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)’s pathological roles in cancer in the mid-1990s, more than 1000 papers relating LPA to various types of cancer were published. Through these studies, LPA was established as a target for cancer. Although LPA-related inhibitors entered clinical trials for fibrosis, the concept of targeting LPA is yet to be moved to clinical cancer treatment. The major challenges that we are facing in moving LPA application from bench to bedside include the intrinsic and complicated metabolic, functional, and signaling properties of LPA, as well as technical issues, which are discussed in this review. Potential strategies and perspectives to improve the translational progress are suggested. Despite these challenges, we are optimistic that LPA blockage, particularly in combination with other agents, is on the horizon to be incorporated into clinical applications.

The tumor microenvironment usually prevents effective lymphocyte activation and infiltration, and suppresses infiltrating effector cells, leading to a failure of the host toreject the tumor. CC chemokines play a significant role in inflammation and infection. Methods: In our study, we analyzed the expression and survival data of CC chemokines in patients with BC using several bioinformatics analyses tools. Results: The mRNA expression of CCL2/3/4/5/7/8/11/17/19/20/22 was remark- ably increased while CCL14/21/23/28 was significantly down-regulated in BC tis- sues compared with normal tissues. Methylation could down-regulate expression of CCL2/5/15/17/19/20/22/23/24/25/26/27 in BC. Low expression of CCL3/4/23 was found to be associated with drug resistance in BC.

  • Integrative Differential Expression and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis Using Summary Statistics for Scrna-Seq Studies
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-15298-6 OPEN Integrative differential expression and gene set enrichment analysis using summary statistics for scRNA-seq studies ✉ Ying Ma 1,7, Shiquan Sun 1,7, Xuequn Shang2, Evan T. Keller 3, Mengjie Chen 4,5 & Xiang Zhou 1,6 Differential expression (DE) analysis and gene set enrichment (GSE) analysis are commonly applied in single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) studies. Here, we develop an integrative 1234567890():,; and scalable computational method, iDEA, to perform joint DE and GSE analysis through a hierarchical Bayesian framework. By integrating DE and GSE analyses, iDEA can improve the power and consistency of DE analysis and the accuracy of GSE analysis. Importantly, iDEA uses only DE summary statistics as input, enabling effective data modeling through com- plementing and pairing with various existing DE methods. We illustrate the benefits of iDEA with extensive simulations. We also apply iDEA to analyze three scRNA-seq data sets, where iDEA achieves up to five-fold power gain over existing GSE methods and up to 64% power gain over existing DE methods. The power gain brought by iDEA allows us to identify many pathways that would not be identified by existing approaches in these data. 1 Department of Biostatistics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA. 2 School of Computer Science, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi’an, Shaanxi 710072, P.R.

The aim of the current study was to illuminate the underlying molecular mechanisms of sCJD. The mRNA microarray dataset GSE124571 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened.

The full contents can be found at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/ 10.1111/bph.13348/full. G protein-coupled receptors are one of the eight major pharmacological targets into which the Guide is divided, with the others being: ligand-gated ion channels, voltage-gated ion channels, other ion channels, nuclear hormone receptors, catalytic receptors, enzymes and transporters. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading.
