Gene-Knockdown Methods for Silencing Nuclear-Localized Insulin Receptors in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells: A Bioinformatics Approach
Background: Lung adenocarcinoma, the predominant subtype of lung cancer, presents a significant challenge to public health due to its notably low five-year survival rate. Recent epidemiological data highlights a concerning trend: patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma and comorbid diabetes exhibit substantially elevated mortality rates compared to those without diabetes, suggesting a potential link between hyperinsulinemia in diabetic individuals and accelerated progression of pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Insulin Receptor (IR) is a tyrosine-protein kinase on the cell surface, and its over-expression is considered the pathological hallmark of hyperinsulinemia in various cancer cell types. Research indicates that IR can translocate to the nucleus of lung adenocarcinoma cells to promote their proliferation, but its precise molecular targets remain unclear. This study aims to silence IRs in lung adenocarcinoma cells and identify key genes within the ERK pathway that may serve as potential molecular targets for intervention. Methods: Gene expression data from lung adenocarcinoma and para cancer tissues were retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and assessed through "pheatmap", GO annotation, KEGG analysis, R calculations, Cytoscape mapping, and Hub gene screening. Significant genes were visualized using the ggplot2 tool to compare expression patterns between the two groups. Additionally, survival analysis was performed using the R "survminer" and "survival" packages, along with the R "pathview" package for pathway visualization. Marker genes were identified and linked to relevant signaling pathways. Validation was conducted utilizing real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunoblotting assays in an A549 lung cancer cell model to determine the roles of these marker genes in associated signaling cascades.
