    Non-negative matrix factorization and differential expression analyses identify hub genes linked to progression and prognosis of glioblastoma multiforme
    (Elsevier, 2022) Akçay, Sevinç; Güven, Emine; Afzal, Muhammad; Kazmi, Imran
    One of the most prevailing primary brain tumors in adult human male is glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), which is categorized by rapid cellular growth. Even though the combination therapy comprises surgery, chemotherapy, and adjuvant therapies, the survival rate, on average, is 14.6 months. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) have key roles in tumorigenesis, progression, and defiance against chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In our study, firstly, the gene expression dataset GSE124145 was retrieved; the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) method was applied on GBM dataset, and differentially expressed genes analysis (DEGs) was performed. After which, overlapping genes between metagenes and DEGs were detected to examine the Gene Ontology (GO) categories in the biological process (BP) in the stemness of GBM. The common hub genes were used to construct protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and further GO, while Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway was utilized to pinpoint the real hub genes. The analysis of hub genes particular for the same GO categories demonstrated that specific hub genes triggered distinct features of the same biological processes. After utilizing GSE124145 and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset for survival analysis, we screened five real hub genes: GUCA1A, RFC2, GNG11, MMP19, and NRG1, which are strongly associated with the progression and prognosis of GBM. The DEGs analysis revealed that all real hub genes were overexpressed in GBM and TCGA datasets, which further validates our results. The constructed study of PPI, GO, and KEGG pathway on common hub genes was performed. Finally, the KEGG pathways performed on the top 15 candidate hub genes (including six real hub genes) of the PPI network in the GBM gene expression dataset study found mitogen-activated protein kinase (Mapk) signaling pathway to be the most significant pathway. The rest of the hub genes reviewed throughout the analysis might be favorable targets for diagnosing and treating GBM and lower-grade gliomas.

    Screening the Significant Hub Genes by Comparing Tumor Cells, Normoxic and Hypoxic Glioblastoma Stem-like Cell Lines Using Co-Expression Analysis in Glioblastoma
    (Mdpi, 2022) Güven, Emine; Afzal, Muhammad; Kazmi, Imran
    Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is categorized by rapid malignant cellular growth in the central nervous system (CNS) tumors. It is one of the most prevailing primary brain tumors, particularly in human male adults. Even though the combination therapy comprises surgery, chemotherapy, and adjuvant therapies, the survival rate is on average 14.6 months. Glioma stem cells (GSCs) have key roles in tumorigenesis, progression, and counteracting chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In our study, firstly, the gene expression dataset GSE45117 was retrieved and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were spotted. The co-expression network analysis was employed on DEGs to find the significant modules. The most significant module resulting from co-expression analysis was the turquoise module. The turquoise module related to the tumor cells, hypoxia, normoxic treatments of glioblastoma tumor (GBT), and GSCs were screened. Sixty-one common genes in the turquoise module were selected generated through the co-expression analysis and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. Moreover, the GO and KEGG pathway enrichment results were studied. Twenty common hub genes were screened by the NetworkAnalyst web instrument constructed on the PPI network through the STRING database. After survival analysis via the Kaplan-Meier (KM) plotter from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we identified the five most significant hub genes strongly related to the progression of GBM. We further observed these five most significant hub genes also up-regulated in another GBM gene expression dataset. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of the turquoise module genes was constructed and a KEGG pathway enrichments study of the turquoise module genes was performed. The VEGF signaling pathway was emphasized because of the strong link with GBM. A gene-disease association network was further constructed to demonstrate the information of the progression of GBM and other related brain neoplasms. All hub genes assessed through this study would be potential markers for the prognosis and diagnosis of GBM.
