ZNF165: A Pan-Cancer Biomarker with Prognostic and Therapeutic Potential

Article

Author: Lyu, Guizhen ; Li, Dongbing

Background:The role of ZNF165 in only a few tumors has been reported. ZNF165 plays an important role in liver cancer, gastric cancer, and breast cancer, especially in regulating the immune microenvironment, promoting tumor cell proliferation and migration, and serving as a potential target for immunotherapy.Objective:This study aimed to enhance an understanding of how the ZNF165 gene functions and influences cancer development.Methods:Using a suite of online resources, including TIMER, TCGA, GTEx, GEPIA2, cBioPortal, TIMER2, STRING, DAVID, RNAactDrug, CancerSEA, and UCSC, along with comprehensive statistical analyses, we conducted a thorough investigation of the pan-cancer landscape of ZNF165. This study encompassed an assessment of ZNF165 levels, their associations with patient outcomes, and clinical correlates. We examined the interplay between ZNF165 and key cancer biomarkers, such as Microsatellite Instability (MSI), Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB), immune cell infiltration, and the expression of immune checkpoint genes. We delved into the genetic variations of ZNF165, its biological roles across various cancer types, and its potential links to drug responsiveness. We analyzed single-cell expression patterns of ZNF165 and their implications for the functional dynamics of cancer. We employed quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) to measure ZNF165 levels in Ovarian Cancer (OC) cell lines.Results:ZNF165 expression displayed aberrations across a diverse range of human cancers and exhibited correlations with clinical stages. High ZNF165 expression in KIRC, KIRP, STAD, and UCEC was significantly associated with poor overall survival. ZNF165 has encouraging diagnostic value in specific tumor types, with gene amplification identified as the predominant genetic alteration. Our analysis further uncovered significant associations between ZNF165 levels and MSI across three distinct cancer types, as well as with TMB in six different malignancies. We detected substantial correlations between ZNF165 levels and immune cell infiltration, as well as the expression of immune checkpoint genes. ZNF165 was found to be involved in several prevalent signaling pathways across various cancer types. ZNF165 may potentially contribute to chemotherapy and chemoresistance, and was observed to be involved in cancer progression. A ceRNA regulatory network involving AFDN-DT, miR-191-5p, and ZNF165 was constructed for OC, revealing significantly elevated ZNF165 levels in OC cell lines. Dysregulated ZNF165 expression across a spectrum of malignancies might play a role in cancer initiation and advancement via multiple biological pathways.Conclusion:ZNF165 may serve as a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of cancer in human patients.

Identification of Potential Genes and Critical Pathways in Postoperative Recurrence of Crohn’s Disease by Machine Learning And WGCNA Network Analysis

Article

Author: Rajalingam, Aruna ; Sekar, Kanagaraj ; Ganjiwale, Anjali

Background:Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease affecting the entire gastrointestinal tract from the mouth to the anus. These patients often experience a period of symptomatic relapse and remission. A 20–30% symptomatic recurrence rate is reported in the first year after surgery, with a 10% increase each subsequent year. Thus, surgery is done only to relieve symptoms and not for the complete cure of the disease. The determinants and the genetic factors of this disease recurrence are also not well-defined. Therefore, enhanced diagnostic efficiency and prognostic outcome are critical for confronting CD recurrence.Methods:We analysed ileal mucosa samples collected from neo-terminal ileum six months after surgery (M6=121 samples) from Crohn's disease dataset (GSE186582). The primary aim of this study is to identify the potential genes and critical pathways in post-operative recurrence of Crohn’s disease. We combined the differential gene expression analysis with Recursive feature elimination (RFE), a machine learning approach to get five critical genes for the postoperative recurrence of Crohn's disease. The features (genes) selected by different methods were validated using five binary classifiers for recurrence and remission samples: Logistic Regression (LR), Decision tree classifier (DT), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest classifier (RF), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) with 10-fold cross-validation. We also performed weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to select specific modules and feature genes associated with Crohn's disease postoperative recurrence, smoking, and biological sex. Combined with other biological interpretations, including Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, pathway enrichment, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis, our current study sheds light on the indepth research of CD diagnosis and prognosis in postoperative recurrence.Results:PLOD2, ZNF165, BOK, CX3CR1, and ARMCX4, are the important genes identified from the machine learning approach. These genes are reported to be involved in the viral protein interaction with cytokine and cytokine receptors, lysine degradation, and apoptosis. They are also linked with various cellular and molecular functions such as Peptidyl-lysine hydroxylation, Central nervous system maturation, G protein-coupled chemoattractant receptor activity, BCL-2 homology (BH) domain binding, Gliogenesis and negative regulation of mitochondrial depolarization. WGCNA identified a gene co-expression module that was primarily involved in mitochondrial translational elongation, mitochondrial translational termination, mitochondrial translation, mitochondrial respiratory chain complex, mRNA splicing via spliceosome pathways, etc.; Both the analysis result emphasizes that the mitochondrial depolarization pathway is linked with CD recurrence leading to oxidative stress in promoting inflammation in CD patients.Conclusion:These key genes serve as the novel diagnostic biomarker for the postoperative recurrence of Crohn’s disease. Thus, among other treatment options present until now, these biomarkers would provide success in both diagnosis and prognosis, aiming for a long-lasting remission to prevent further complications in CD.

ZNF165 Is Involved in the Regulation of Immune Microenvironment and Promoting the Proliferation and Migration of Hepatocellular Carcinoma by AhR/CYP1A1

Article

Author: Zhou, Yan ; Li, Li ; Liu, Zhong ; Liang, Rui ; Dong, Xin ; Gong, Peng ; Liang, Bo ; Zheng, Biao ; Liu, Peng

The strong tumorigenic capacity and treatment resistance made hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) a huge threat to public health. ZNF165, the kruppel family of zinc-finger-containing transcription factors, is expressed in HCC; however, its specific role in HCC and the molecular mechanism are yet to be elucidated. In this study, we observed that ZNF165 was overexpressed in liver cancer tissues and the immune microenvironment; higher ZNF165 expression was correlated with lower overall survival in liver cancer patients. The ZNF165 knockdown in Bel7402 cells revealed the impairment of the tryptophan/kynurenine/AhR/CYP1A1 axis. Moreover, the knockdown of CYP1A1 significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of HCC cells, and ZNF165 promoted the transcriptional activity of AhR by facilitating the nuclear translocation of CYP1A1. In conclusion, the present study argued that ZNF165 was highly expressed in liver tissues and the immune microenvironment. ZNF165 promoted the proliferation and migration of HCC cells by activating the tryptophan/kynurenine/AhR/CYP1A1 axis and promoting the expression of CYP1A1.
