Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes

10.0K
Genes usually encode proteins necessary for the proper functioning of a healthy cell. Mutations can often cause changes to the gene expression pattern, thereby altering the phenotype.
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...

Cancer

55.6K
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

Cancers Originate from Somatic Mutations in a Single Cell

15.5K
Cancer arises from mutations in the critical genes that allow healthy cells to escape cell cycle regulation and acquire the ability to proliferate indefinitely. Though originating from a single mutation event in one of the originator cells, cancer progresses when the mutant cell lines continue to gain more and more mutations, and finally, become malignant. For example, chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) develops initially as a non-lethal increase in white blood cells, which progressively...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Colon cancer prognosis is challenging, with relapse prediction being critical for treatment planning.
  • Gene expression profiling offers a molecular basis for understanding cancer behavior and patient stratification.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To classify colon cancer patients (UICC II) into relapse and no relapse groups based on gene expression.
  • To evaluate the performance of S-Kohonen, BP, and SVM neural networks for accurate cancer classification.

Main Methods:

  • Gene expression data from 53 colon cancer patients (UICC II) were analyzed.
  • S-Kohonen, Backpropagation (BP), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) neural networks were employed for classification.
  • 500 relevant genes were identified through the analyses.

Main Results:

  • The S-Kohonen neural network achieved a classification accuracy of 91%.
  • S-Kohonen demonstrated superior accuracy compared to BP and SVM neural networks in this cohort.
  • The identified gene set showed potential for relapse prediction.

Conclusions:

  • The S-Kohonen neural network is a plausible and valid tool for classifying colon cancer patients based on gene expression.
  • This approach shows feasibility for predicting relapse in colon cancer, aiding clinical decision-making.
