Description
Summary:Disitamab Vedotin has shown good therapeutic efficacy against bladder cancer. Although its mechanism is clear, the regulation of gene expression in bladder cancer cells by Disitamab Vedotin is not fully understood. We searched the GEO database and identified the GSE237789 dataset, in which researchers treated the bladder cancer cell line SW780 with Disitamab Vedotin and performed high-throughput transcriptome sequencing. Compared with the control SW780 cells, the expression levels of the vast majority of genes (16,223/16,390, 98.98%) in Disitamab Vedotin-treated SW780 cells remained unchanged. Only one hundred fifty-nine genes (0.97%) were upregulated, and eight genes (0.05%) were downregulated. Enrichment analysis results showed that the related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were mainly enriched in the <i>TNF</i> signaling pathway, <i>NF-κB</i> signaling pathway, and other pathways. Protein–protein interaction analysis revealed that 10 genes, <i>TNF</i>, <i>IL1B</i>, <i>IL1A</i>, <i>CXCL8</i>, <i>CXCL1</i>, <i>CCL2</i>, <i>MMP9</i>, <i>ICAM1</i>, <i>CXCL10</i>, and <i>CCL20</i>, had the highest connectivity, and all of these genes belong to the <i>TNF</i> signaling pathway. These results suggest that the <i>TNF</i> signaling pathway is the key pathway regulated by Disitamab Vedotin in bladder cancer cells, which may represent a stress response of bladder cancer cells to Disitamab Vedotin.
