Gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC), also known as stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD), is one of the most lethal malignancies in the world. It is vital to classify and detect the hub genes and key pathways participated in the initiation and progression of GAC. In this study, we collected and sequenced 15 pairs of GAC tumor tissues and the adjacent normal tissues. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway and Gene Ontology (GO) analysis were used to annotate the unique biological significance and important pathways of enriched DEGs. Moreover, we constructed the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network by Cytoscape and conducted KEGG enrichment analysis of the prime module. We further applied the TCGA database to start the survival analysis of these hub genes by Kaplan-Meier estimates. Finally, we obtained total 233 DEGs consisted of 64 up-regulated genes and 169 down-regulated genes. GO enrichment analysis found that DEGs most significantly enriched in single organism process, extracellular region, and extracellular region part. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis suggested that DEGs most significantly enriched in Protein digestion and absorption, Gastric acid secretion, and ECM-receptor interaction. Furthermore, the PPI network showed that the top 10 hub genes in GAC were IL8, COL1A1, MMP9, SST, COL1A2, TIMP1, FN1, SPARC, ALDH1A1, and SERPINE1 respectively. The prime gene interaction module in PPI network was enriched in protein digestion and absorption, ECM receptor interaction, the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and pathway in cancer. Survival analysis based on the TCGA database found that the expression of the FN1, SERPINE1, and SPARC significantly predicted poor prognosis of GAC. Collectively, we identified several hub genes and key pathways associated with GAC initiation and progression by analyzing the microarray data on DEGs, which provided a detailed molecular mechanism underlying GAC occurrence and progression.

View all literature mentionsSoftware platform for complex network analysis and visualization. Used for visualization of molecular interaction networks and biological pathways and integrating these networks with annotations, gene expression profiles and other state data.
View all literature mentionsDatabase of known and predicted protein interactions. The interactions include direct (physical) and indirect (functional) associations and are derived from four sources: Genomic Context, High-throughput experiments, (Conserved) Coexpression, and previous knowledge. STRING quantitatively integrates interaction data from these sources for a large number of organisms, and transfers information between these organisms where applicable. The database currently covers 5''214''234 proteins from 1133 organisms. (2013)
