TYROBP as a molecular target in cholangiocarcinoma, renal cancer and abdominal aortic aneurysm.

Abstract

Cholangiocarcinoma occurs when there is a malignant tumor in the bile duct system. Renal cancer originates from renal tubular epithelial cells. Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a permanently localized dilation caused by a lesion or injury to abdominal aortic wall. However, the relationship between TYROBP and cholangiocarcinoma, renal cancer and AAA remains unclear. The profiles of cholangiocarcinoma dataset GSE107943, renal cell carcinoma dataset GSE213324, and AAA dataset GSE47472 were downloaded from the GEO database using the platforms GPL18573, GPL24676, and GPL10558. DEGs were screened, WGCNA was performed as well as construction and analysis of PPI network. Functional enrichment analysis, GSEA, heat map of gene expression, survival analysis, and immune infiltration analysis were performed. The most relevant diseases to core genes were found by CTD. The GSE107943 dataset identified 3383 DEGs for cholangiocarcinoma, GSE47472 identified 95 DEGs for abdominal aortic aneurysm, and GSE213324 identified 10245 DEGs for renal cell carcinoma. For the GSE107943 cholangiocarcinoma dataset, GO analysis revealed enrichment in immune response, cell adhesion, extracellular space, and oxidoreductase activity. KEGG analysis indicated enrichment in metabolic pathways, the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, cell apoptosis, the cell cycle, and the NF-kappa B signaling pathway. In the GSE47472 AAA dataset, GO analysis showed enrichment in neuroblast differentiation, cardiac muscle myofilament complex, and alkaline binding. KEGG analysis indicated enrichment in mRNA surveillance pathway and purine metabolism. In the GSE213324 renal cell carcinoma dataset, GO analysis indicated enrichment in immune system processes, cell adhesion, and membrane parts. KEGG analysis showed enrichment in cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, calcium signaling pathway, and hematopoietic cell lineage. Furthermore, for cholangiocarcinoma (GSE107943), enriched terms associated with DEGs were in metabolic pathways, cell apoptosis, and the cell cycle. For AAA (GSE47472), enriched terms were in alkaline binding and cellular redox homeostasis. For renal cell carcinoma (GSE213324), enriched terms were in biological adhesion, regulation of immune system processes, and cell surface. Common core genes (ADH6, AGXT, CYP3A43, TYROBP) were identified for cholangiocarcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, and AAA. ADH6 and TYROBP were associated with cholangiocarcinoma, AAA, renal tumors, kidney diseases, atherosclerosis, and inflammation. TYROBP is abnormally expressed in cholangiocarcinoma, renal cancer and abdominal aortic aneurysm.
