Integrative methylome and transcriptome analysis reveals epigenetic regulation of in laryngeal cancer Open Access

Abstract

The aetiological mechanisms of in laryngeal cancer remain unclear. This study aimed to reveal the epigenetic signature induced by in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). Combined analysis of methylome and transcriptome data was performed to address the functional role of in laryngeal cancer. Twenty-nine differentially expressed methylation-driven genes were identified by mapping the methylation levels of significant differential methylation sites to the expression levels of related genes. The combined analysis revealed that promoted Janus kinase 3 (JAK3) gene expression in LSCC. Further validation found decreased methylation and elevated expression of JAK3 in the treated LSCC cell group; abundance and JAK3 gene expression had a positive correlation in tumour tissues. This analysis provides a novel understanding of the impact of in the methylome and transcriptome of laryngeal cancer. Identification of these epigenetic regulatory mechanisms opens up new avenues for mechanistic studies to explore novel therapeutic strategies.
