Description

Method for discovering genes related to oral cancer lipid metabolism and application of genes
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biomedical science, in particular to a method for discovering genes related to lipid metabolism of oral cancer and application of the genes.
Background
Oral cancer is a common malignancy of the head and neck, with oral squamous cell carcinoma (oral squamous cell carcinomas, OSCC) being the major pathological type, accounting for more than 90% of oral cancer cases. The first mode of OSCC treatment is surgical treatment, often supplemented with radiation and chemotherapy in the late stages. Of these, 40% of OSCC patients have already been associated with lymph node metastasis at the time of diagnosis. The 5-year survival rate for non-metastatic OSCC patients is about 90%, whereas the 5-survival rate for metastatic OSCC patients is only around 40%. Thus, the development of therapeutic targets specific to oral cancers has become a hotspot in research in this area. More and more literature reports reveal that mutations, structural variations and abnormal expression of some genes are closely related to the occurrence and development of oral cancers. However, since oral cancer is a multi-factor, multi-stage and multi-mechanism complex pathological change process, no specific relevant diagnosis and treatment target aiming at the oral cancer exists at present.
Lipids play a vital role in signal transduction, maintaining cell membrane integrity, regulating energy metabolism, etc. Lipid metabolism is part of metabolic reprogramming and is a hallmark of many cancers. Early stages of cancer progression increase de novo synthesis and uptake of lipids. Lipids involved in various cancer malignant transformations, such as Glycerophospholipids (GPLs), have been shown to regulate various functions such as adhesion, migration, apoptosis and signal transduction; cholesterol is an integral part of lipid rafts and also plays a key role in cell signaling, controlling oncogenic, drug-resistant and metastatic pathways. Reprogramming of lipid metabolism provides energy and cellular structural molecules to tumor cells to meet the need for rapid proliferation and metastasis of tumor cells. Studies have shown that increased adipogenesis in OSCC is associated with increased cellular invasiveness. Currently, regulation of lipid metabolism in OSCC progression is not yet clear.
Therefore, systematic research on lipid mass spectra of OSCC is performed, and exploration of molecular mechanisms of OSCC lipid metabolism regulation is a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

Respectively taking 800uL of supernatant in two 2mL centrifuge tubes, drying under nitrogen, wherein one part is used for positive ion detection and the other part is used for negative ion detection. Re-dissolving the blow-dried sample with 70uL of mixed solvent of isopropanol/acetonitrile (9:1 volume ratio), swirling for 10min, fully dissolving the concentrated lipid component in an organic solvent, centrifuging for 10min at 13000 Xg at 4 ℃, taking 5uL of each sample for preparing a quality control sample, and transferring the rest samples into a sample injection vial for mass spectrum detection.
3. Preparation of quality control samples
5uL of each sample to be tested is extracted and concentrated in 12 mL centrifuge tubes, vortex oscillation is carried out for 1min, after the samples are uniformly mixed, the mixture is centrifuged for 10min at 13000 Xg at the temperature of 4 ℃, and the supernatant is taken out in a sample injection vial for subsequent mass spectrometry. During detection, 6 QC samples are detected firstly, and the pressure change before and after each sample injection and the change of the retention time of the main peak of the total ion flow diagram are monitored. After confirming that the instrument is stable, the analysis of the sample is started. One needle of QC samples was inserted after every 10 samples tested. After each QC sample was tested, a needle of pure water solution was inserted to avoid contaminating the other samples.
4. Serum samples were analyzed using an ultra high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/electrostatic field Orbitrap tandem high resolution mass spectrometer (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS).
5uL of each sample was pipetted into a chromatographic column at 40 ℃. The chromatographic column is ACQUITYCSH C18 column (1.7 mm. Times.100 mm,1.8 μm); the mobile phase is (B): acetonitrile isopropanol solution (acetonitrile: isopropanol=1:9), gradient elution, elution procedure is 0-2 min (30% b), 2-25 min (30% -100% b), 25-30.0 min (100% b); the flow rate was 0.3mL/min.
High resolution mass spectrometry was serially connected to a UHPLC system using a heated electrospray ion source (Heated electrospray ionization, HESI). The temperature of the auxiliary gas is 300 ℃, and the flow is 10 mu L/min; the ion transport tube temperature was 320 ℃. The scanning range is 80.00-1200.00 m/z under the positive and negative ion modes, and the spraying voltage and the sheath air flow rate are respectively 3.50kV, 40 mu L/min and 2.80kV, 38 mu L/min. The resolution of the secondary mass spectrum is 17500, and the width of the mass-to-charge ratio window is set to be 2. The gradient collision energies were 20eV, 40eV and 60eV, respectively. The samples are placed on a sample feeding disc according to a random number method, and sample feeding is carried out one by one according to the sequence.
5. Data processing
Raw data obtained from LC-MS analysis of all samples were processed using the Lipid Search v4.0 software (Thermo Fisher Scientific, united States), then the data for each sample was normalized to peak area, and all data on variables (including retention time RT and charge-to-mass ratio m/z), sample numbers, and normalized peak intensities were imported into SIMCA14.1 software (immetrics, sweden). Obtaining variable weight importance projection values (Variable importance in projection, VIP) of each metabolite through OPLS-DA analysis, performing independent sample t-test on lipid metabolites with VIP >1, and screening out differential lipid metabolites with statistically significant differences according to P values and fold differences (FC). The multivariate statistical analysis results showed significant differences in lipid metabolism characteristics of OSCC and HC. Volcanic images drawn according to P-values, FC-values (FC) can screen for differential metabolites between the two groups. With the points of |log2fc| >1.0, vip >1 and P <0.05 as candidate differential metabolites, 70 differential lipid metabolites, mainly including sphingolipids, glycerides, glycerophospholipids, were finally identified and a thermal map of the differential lipids was drawn.
Step two, screening lipid metabolism genes related to pathogenesis and prognosis of oral cancer from the differential lipid metabolites by combining with bioinformatics means;
the HMDB database was used to find differential lipid-related genes (298), and the TCGA database was used to analyze differentially expressed genes between head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) patients and healthy persons, which were crossed to obtain 68 common genes. Namely the potential lipid metabolism related genes for the occurrence and the development of oral squamous cell carcinoma. A thermographic analysis of 68 differentially expressed genes revealed that there was significant differential expression of these 68 genes in HNSC and HC samples. The single factor cox regression analysis result shows that 12 genes in 68 genes are related to prognosis, wherein 2 HR >1 are risk genes, and 10 genes are protection genes; the multi-factor cox regression analysis results show that DGKG and CLC are independent risk factors for oral squamous cell carcinoma. According to the expression bar graph drawn by the expression levels of DGKG and CLC mRNA in 502 HNSC tissues and 44 matched tissues in the TCGA database, the result shows that the expression difference of DGKG and CLC has statistical significance, and the expression difference of DGKG is more obvious. Meanwhile, the T test of paired samples is carried out on the expression of DGKG and CLC, and the expression difference of DGKG has statistical significance. And drawing a KM curve according to survival information of the sample, and displaying that a DGKG high-expression group and a DGKG low-expression group have obvious prognosis difference. The human protein profile HPA database was used to verify the expression of DGKG, demonstrating that DGKG expression in OSCC tissue is significantly higher than that of normal oral mucosal epithelium.
