RESUMO

Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) occurs following a series of histological changes through epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). A variable expression of normal and aberrant genes in the tissue can contribute to the development of EAC through the activation or inhibition of critical molecular signaling pathways. Gene expression is regulated by various regulatory factors, including transcription factors and microRNAs (miRs). The exact profile of miRs associated with the pathogenesis of EAC is largely unknown, though some candidate miRNAs have been reported in the literature. To identify the unique miR profile associated with EAC, we compared normal esophageal tissue to EAC tissue using bulk RNA sequencing. RNA sequence data was verified using qPCR of 18 selected genes. Fourteen were confirmed as being upregulated, which include CDH11, PCOLCE, SULF1, GJA4, LUM, CDH6, GNA12, F2RL2, CTSZ, TYROBP, and KDELR3 as well as the downregulation of UGT1A1. We then conducted Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to analyze for novel miR-gene relationships through Causal Network Analysis and Upstream Regulator Analysis. We identified 46 miRs that were aberrantly expressed in EAC compared to control tissues. In EAC tissues, seven miRs were associated with activated networks, while 39 miRs were associated with inhibited networks. The miR-gene relationships identified provide novel insights into potentially oncogenic molecular pathways and genes associated with carcinogenesis in esophageal tissue. Our results revealed a distinct miR profile associated with dysregulated genes. The miRs and genes identified in this study may be used in the future as biomarkers and serve as potential therapeutic targets in EAC.
