Abstract

This study aims to perform a comprehensive genomic analysis to assess the influence of overexpression of MYO1E in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and whether there are differences in survival and mortality risk in NSCLC patients depending on both DNA methylation and RNA expression of MYO1E. The DNA methylation probe cg13887966 was inversely correlated with MYO1E RNA expression in both LUAD and LUSC subpopulations showing that lower MYO1E RNA expression was associated with higher MYO1E DNA methylation. Late stages of lung cancer showed significantly lower MYO1E DNA methylation and significantly higher MYO1E RNA expression for LUAD but not for LUSC. Low DNA methylation as well as high RNA expression of MYO1E are associated with a shorter median survival time and an increased risk of mortality for LUAD, but not for LUSC. This study suggests that changes in MYO1E methylation and expression in LUAD patients may have an essential role in lung cancer's pathogenesis. It shows the utility of MYO1E DNA methylation and RNA expression in predicting survival for LUAD patients. Also, given the low normal expression of MYO1E in blood cells MYO1E DNA methylation has the potential to be used as circulating tumor marker in liquid biopsies.
