The Impact of Transcriptional Profiling Cadherin Family and Therapeutic Approaches of Gastric Cancer: A Translational Outlook on Multi-omics Data Analysis.

The classical cadherin gene has been linked to a variety of human malignancies, including gastric cancer. However, the link between cadherin genes and gastric cancer outcome is still unclear. This study used multi-omics data to examine the cadherin genes that were differentially regulated in gastric cancer. Differential expression of genes, epigenetic, molecular alterations, and protein expression analyses was conducted. Male SD rats were given N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) to induce stomach carcinoma in order to verify the activation of cadherin genes. CDH5, CDH6, CDH11, and CDH24 levels were found to be considerably higher in gastric cancer and may serve as useful indicators of stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD). Cadherin genes with variable expression had considerably more promoter methylation in cancers than in normal tissues. In individuals with gastric cancer, high expression of these cadherin genes was related to lower total mortality and disease-free survival rates. Furthermore, compared to normal rats, gastric cancer-induced rats had significantly higher expression and distribution of CDH5, CDH6, CDH11, and CDH24. This study sheds new light on the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer by identifying potential prognostic markers such as CDH5, CDH6, CDH11, and CDH24. The multi-omics approach provided a potential tool for target-based therapy by accurately predicting the outcome of stomach cancer. Researchers may gain more knowledge about the role of cadherin genes in the development and dissemination of tumors to the activated rat model of gastric cancer.
