Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo investigate the genes concerning multidrug resistance (MDR) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with microarray analysis.
METHODSGene expression profile of pancreatic cancer cell line SW1990 and resistance subline SW1990/5-FU, SW1990/ADM, SW1990/GEM were screened in two independent replicates using oligonucleotide microarray (Affymetrix HG U133 2.0 plus) which contained 38,500 human genes. And advanced bioinformatics analysis was conducted.
RESULTSTotally, 165 genes and expressed sequence tags (ESTs), which were seldom reported to be related with drug resistance before,were statistically difference and the fold change was up- or down-regulated at least 2 folds in all 3 resistant sub-lines when compared with SW1990. According gene ontology, the genes related to oxidoreductase activity, apoptosis, cell cycle, signal transduction and cell adhesion might be some epigenetic changes for MDR development. Hierarchical clustering analysis, showed several interesting clusters, namely, TNKS2, PRDX4 and CCDC4.
CONCLUSIONSMDR of pancreatic cancer is a complicated and multifactorial process. In the present study, a widespread differential gene expression pattern was constructed in PDAC multidrug resistant cells. Advanced study will provide new targets for MDR research and cast insights into research of the molecular mechanism of MDR.
