Résumé

The exact molecular mechanism underlying the heterogeneous drug response against breast carcinoma remains to be fully understood. It is urgently required to identify key genes that are intricately associated with varied clinical response of standard anti-cancer drugs, clinically used to treat breast cancer patients. In the present study, the utility of transcriptomic data of breast cancer patients in discerning the clinical drug response using machine learning-based approaches were evaluated. Here, a computational framework has been developed which can be used to identify key genes that can be linked with clinical drug response and progression of cancer, offering an immense opportunity to predict potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. The framework concerned utilizes DeSeq2, Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), Cytoscape, and machine learning techniques to find these crucial genes. Total RNA extraction and qRT-PCR were performed to quantify relative expression of few hub genes selected from the networks. In our study, we have experimentally checked the expression of few key hub genes like APOA2, DLX5, APOC3, CAMK2B, and PAK6 that were predicted to play an immense role in breast cancer tumorigenesis and progression in response to anti-cancer drug Paclitaxel. However, further experimental validations will be required to get mechanistic insights of these genes in regulating the drug response and cancer progression which will likely to play pivotal role in cancer treatment and precision oncology.
