AB  - The cornerstone in the treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) is neoadjuvant
chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) followed by total mesorectal excision. Reliable predictors of
response to nCRT in LARC remain an unmet need in colorectal cancer research. This study
used high throughput DNA analysis to investigate genetic differences between highly
responsive tumors and tumors resistant to nCRT.

AB  - Introduction: A recent comprehensive pan-cancer transcriptome analysis revealed differential activity
of two alternative promoters of the gene PHF19 in malignant and non-malignant gut mucosa. Transcription from the promoter which is up-regulated in colorectal cancer results in the synthesis of transcript PHF19-207. This finding indicates that transcript PHF19-207 could potentially be used as a
biomarker for this disease. Our study aimed to assess the expression profile of the PHF19 gene in colon
cancer.
Methods: Immortalized colonic epithelial cell line isolated from healthy tissue (HCEC-1CT) as well as a
set of colon cancer cell lines (DLD1, SW620, HCT116) were used for transcriptional profiling of PHF19 in
cells cultivated in 3D. The transcriptional profile was obtained using RNA sequencing and the function
of transcript PHF19-207 was evaluated using in silico tools.
Results: Our analysis confirmed the up-regulation of transcript PHF19-207 in all malignant cell cultures
in comparison to the healthy cell line HCEC-1CT. The expression of transcript PHF19-207 was more notable in cell lines that originated from colon cancer in later stages. Coding Potential Calculator tool classifies this transcript as non-coding, with a probability of 0.2. Annolnc tool shows the up-regulation of
thistranscript in colorectal cancer cell lines and its down-regulation in healthy samples. Also, thistool predicts that transcript PHF19-207 localizes in the nucleus.
Conclusion: We conclude that transcript PHF19-207 could serve as a biomarker for colorectal cancer.
Also, we hypothesize that thistranscript is a lncRNA with a role in gene expression regulation and could
be linked to oncogenesis.

AB  - Background/Objectives: The transcriptional regulation of
PRKAR1B is controlled by alternative promoters, and previous in
silico analysis has indicated their differential activity in colon and
rectal cancer tissue in comparison to normal gut mucosa. The aim
of this study was to investigate PRKAR1B promoters and transcripts
potentially involved in cancer.
Methods: The sequences of PRKAR1B alternative promoters
were retrieved from Ensembl database: promoter A 752209 and
promoter B 767287 bases upstream from the translation start site.
Bioinformatic tools Alggen, AliBaba, CiiiDER, and TFBIND were
used to predict binding of transcriptional regulators. Primer
extension assay was performed on RNA isolated from malignant
colon cell lines using an oligonucleotide probe binding to the
sequence at the exon2/exon3 junction common for all PRKAR1B
transcripts.
Results: Based on analyzed elements, both PRKAR1B promoters
were found to have atypical structure. According to the prediction,
promoter A that encodes transcript PRKAR1B-201 binds several
factors involved in cell proliferation, while promoter B that encodes
transcript PRKAR1B-203 binds mostly pro-apoptotic factors. In primer
extension experiments, a single signal corresponding to the
transcript PRKAR1B-212 was observed in malignant cells.
Conclusion: The differential activity of alternative PRKAR1B
promoters in colorectal cancer can be explained by in silico
results, predicting that promoter sequences bind sets of transcriptional
regulators with opposing roles. However, experiments
point to the transcript unrelated to either of the investigated
promoters as potential cancer biomarker and it should be further
characterized.
