Analysis of ceRNA network of differentially expressed genes in FaDu cell line and a cisplatin-resistant line derived from it.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hypopharyngeal cancer accounts for 2% in head and neck cancers and has a poor prognosis. Cisplatin is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug in kinds of carcinomas, concluding hypopharyngeal cancer. However, the resistance of cisplatin appeared in recent years. Cisplatin-resistance has been partly explored before, but rarely in hypopharyngeal cancer.

Methods

We cultured the hypopharyngeal cancer cell (FaDu) and induced its cisplatin-resistant cell (FaDu/DDP4). Then we tested the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between FaDu and FaDu/DDP4. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were conducted on the DEGs, and we drew the ceRNA networks of DEGs. Finally, we chose eight miRNAs and six mRNAs for qRT-PCR to verify our microarra
