Transcriptome analysis of an AKT inhibitor-resistant endometrial cancer cell line.
Background: Drug resistance in endometrial cancer (EC) is a serious problem and a barrier to improving prognosis. The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is highly activated in EC and can serve as a potential therapeutic target. Inhibitors against AKT have been developed, but resistance to these inhibitors is a concern. This study aimed to establish AKT inhibitor resistant cell lines and identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between parental and AKT inhibitor resistant cell lines to understand the mechanism of drug resistance to AKT inhibitors in EC.
Methods: The sensitivity of eight EC cell lines to AKT inhibitor was analyzed. One of them was used to establish a drug-resistant cell line. DEGs were examined using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Furthermore, DEGs were comprehensively analyzed to identify hub genes. Hub genes were evaluated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.
Results: RNA-seq identified 617 DEGs. Hub genes were selected using bioinformatics analysis. The top 10 hub genes were TNF, CDH1, CCND1, COL1A1, CDH2, ICAM1, CAV1, THBS1, NCAM1, and CDKN2A. Relative mRNA expression was significantly upregulated for TNF, CDH1, CCND1, THBS1, p16INK4a, and p14ARF and significantly downregulated for CDH2, ICAM1, and NCAM1 in borussertib-resistant EC cell line.
Conclusions: Drug resistance to AKT inhibitors may depend on genes related to cell adhesion-mediated resistance and transforming growth factor β signaling.
