Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the predominant cause of death in women. BC is a complex disorder, and the exploration of several types of BC omic data, highlighting genes, perturbations, signaling and cellular mechanisms, is needed. We collected mutational data from 9,555 BC samples using cBioPortal. We classified 1174 BC genes (mutated ≥ 40 samples) into five tiers (BCtier_I-V) and subjected them to pathway and protein‒protein network analyses using EnrichR and STRING 11, respectively. BCtier_I possesses 12 BC genes with mutational frequencies > 5%, with only 5 genes possessing > 10% frequencies, namely, PIK3CA (35.7%), TP53 (34.3%), GATA3 (11.5%), CDH1 (11.4%) and MUC16 (11%), and the next seven BC genes are KMT2C (8.8%), TTN (8%), MAP3K1 (8%), SYNE1 (7.2%), AHNAK2 (7%), USH2A (5.5%), and RYR2 (5.4%). Our pathway analyses revealed that the five top BC pathways were the PI3K-AKT, TP53, NOTCH, HIPPO, and RAS pathways. We found that BC panels share only seven genes. These findings show that BC arises from genetic disruptions evident in BC signaling and protein networks.
期刊介绍:
Functional & Integrative Genomics is devoted to large-scale studies of genomes and their functions, including systems analyses of biological processes. The journal will provide the research community an integrated platform where researchers can share, review and discuss their findings on important biological questions that will ultimately enable us to answer the fundamental question: How do genomes work?
