Abstract:
Aim: The present study was designed to investigate the coregulatory effects of multiple histone modifications (HMs) on gene expression in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Materials & methods: Ten histones for LUAD were analyzed using ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data. An innovative computational method is proposed to quantify the coregulatory effects of multiple HMs on gene expression to identify strong coregulatory genes and regions. This method was applied to explore the coregulatory mechanisms of key ferroptosis-related genes in LUAD. Results: Nine strong coregulatory regions were identified for six ferroptosis-related genes with diverse coregulatory patterns (CA9, PGD, CDKN2A, PML, OTUB1 and NFE2L2). Conclusion: This quantitative method could be used to identify important HM coregulatory genes and regions that may be epigenetic regulatory targets in cancers.
