BUB1 Is Identified as a Potential Therapeutic Target for Pancreatic Cancer Treatment.

ABSTRACT: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most challenging cancer types in clinical treatment worldwide. This study aimed to understand the tumorigenesis mechanism and explore potential therapeutic targets for patients with pancreatic cancer. Single-cell data and expression profiles of pancreatic cancer samples and normal tissues from multiple databases were included. Comprehensive bioinformatics analyses were applied to clarify tumor microenvironment and identify key genes involved in cancer development. Immense difference of cell types was shown between tumor and normal samples. Four cell types (B cell_1, B cell_2, cancer cell_3, and CD1C+_B dendritic cell_3) were screened to be significantly associated with prognosis. Three ligand-receptor pairs, including CD74-MIF, CD74-COPA, and CD74-APP, greatly contributed to tumorigenesis. High expression of BUB1 (BUB1 Mitotic Checkpoint Serine/Threonine Kinase) was closely correlated with worse prognosis. CD1C+_B dendritic cell_3 played a key role in tumorigenesis and cancer progression possibly through CD74-MIF. BUB1 can serve as a prognostic biomarker and a therapeutic target for patients with pancreatic cancer. The study provided a novel insight into studying the molecular mechanism of pancreatic cancer development and proposed a potential strategy for exploiting new drugs.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers and is projected to be the second most common cause of cancer-related death by 2030, with an overall 5-year survival rate between 7% and 9%. Despite recent advances in surgical, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy techniques, the outcome for patients with PDAC remains poor. Poor prognosis is multifactorial, including the likelihood of sub-clinical metastatic disease at presentation, late-stage at presentation, absence of early and reliable diagnostic biomarkers, and complex biology surrounding the extensive desmoplastic PDAC tumour micro-environment. Microbiota refers to all the microorganisms found in an environment, whereas microbiome is the collection of microbiota and their genome within an environment. These organisms reside on body surfaces and within mucosal layers, but are most abundantly found within the gut. The commensal microbiome resides in symbiosis in healthy individuals and contributes to nutritive, metabolic and immune-modulation to maintain normal health. Dysbiosis is the perturbation of the microbiome that can lead to a diseased state, including inflammatory bowel conditions and aetiology of cancer, such as colorectal and PDAC. Microbes have been linked to approximately 10% to 20% of human cancers, and they can induce carcinogenesis by affecting a number of the cancer hallmarks, such as promoting inflammation, avoiding immune destruction, and microbial metabolites can deregulate host genome stability preceding cancer development. Significant advances have been made in cancer treatment since the advent of immunotherapy. The microbiome signature has been linked to response to immunotherapy and survival in many solid tumours. However, progress with immunotherapy in PDAC has been challenging. Therefore, this review will focus on the available published evidence of the microbiome association with PDAC and explore its potential as a target for therapeutic manipulation.
