Silencing TAK1 alters gene expression signatures in bladder cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) that are induced by the silencing of transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) in bladder cancer cells and to analyze the potential biological effects. Dataset GSE52452 from mutant fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) bladder cancer cells transfected with control siRNA or TAK1-specific siRNA was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus. The DEGs between the two groups were identified using Limma package following data pre-processing by Affy in Bioconductor. Enrichment analysis of DEGs was performed using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery, followed by functional annotation using TRANSFAC, TSGene and TAG databases. Integrated networks were constructed by
