Project description:To identify biomarkers regulated by traditional Chinese medicine Astragalus membranaceus Fischer Bge. var. mongolicus Bge. Hsiao in colorectal cancer. We have identified several differentially expressed genes including microRNAs using Affymetrix HTA-2.0 array. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from colon cancer cell line HCT116 grafted into nude mice. The mice was treated either water or traditional Chinese medicine Astragalus membranaceus for 28 days. These data are used to obtain 1425 genes that are differentially expressed in response to Astragalus membranaceus treatment.

Transcriptomics data on muscle atrophy in the state of cancer cachexia, as well as the therapeutic effects of Astragalus membranaceus Decoction

Project description:Cancer cachexia (CC) causes severe muscle loss in advanced cancer patients, significantly impacting their quality of life and life expectancy. The autophagy-lysosome system is a key pathway in muscle depletion in CC, yet targeted therapies are limited. This study examines how Astragalus polysaccharides (APS) from Astragalus membranaceus alleviate muscle wasting in CC mice. Mice were divided into control, model, and APS high-dose groups. Transcriptomic analysis identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) enriched in autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy pathways. Results indicate that APS treatment normalizes the expression levels of some DEGs in cachectic muscle tissue. For instance, autophagy-related genes Gabarapl1, Ggad45b, and Igf1r return to normal levels after APS treatment. KEGG pathway analysis suggests that APS modulates the transcription of autophagy- and mitochondrial autophagy-related genes, reducing over-activated autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy activities. Collectively, our data provide additional insights into the transcriptional profiles of cachectic muscle and muscle treated with APS, highlighting the potential of APS as a therapeutic agent for mitigating muscle depletion in cancer cachexia.
