ObjectiveThis research was to establish a mitochondrial-related Drp1 gene and a lung cancer-related Erbb4 gene to participate in the regulatory network of lung cancer cell apoptosis, and to provide theoretical support for mitochondria to participate in tumor regulation.MethodThe GO and KEGG methods were used to construct the regulatory networks of lung cancer related Drp1 and Erbb4 proteins that involved in the apoptosis of tumor cells, and to combine with the Bayesian network theory to screen out the largest possible action path acting on this network; The information about Drp1 in Oncomine database was collected, and the data in current database were analyzed twice. The role of Drp1 in lung cancer was meta-analyzed.ResultA regulatory network of Drp1 and Erbb4 involved in the apoptosis of tumor cells was successfully constructed; the optimal pathway was optimized using Bayesian theory; a total of 446 different types of research results were collected in the Oncomine database, of which there were 18 studies with statistical differences in Drp1 expression, 13 studies with increased Drp1’s expression, and 5 studies with decreased expression. Compared with the control group, Drp1 was expressed in lung cancer tissues highly (P < 0.05).ConclusionEstablishment and optimization of mitochondrial-related Drp1 and tumor-related Erbb4 genes involved in the regulation of apoptosis of cancer cells. It was proposed that Drp1 was expressed in lung cancer tissues highly through in-depth excavation of tumor-associated gene information in the Oncomine gene chip database.
