CCNB2 as a potential biomarker of bladder cancer via the high throughput technology

Bladder cancer and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) seriously affect people’s health. However, the relationship between bladder cancer and OSCC remains unclear. Got GSE138206, GSE146483, GSE184616, and bladder cancer datasets GSE65635, GSE100926 from Gene Expression Omnibus database. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis was used to identify the significant module. Functional enrichment analysis was performed via the Gene Ontology analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes. Furthermore, the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis was also used to complete the enrichment analysis. Comparative Toxicogenomics Database found most relevant diseases to core genes. TargetScan is used to forecast analysis of microRNA and target genes. In Gene Ontology analysis, differentially expressed genes were mostly concentrated in cell differentiation, extrallular region, structural molecule activity, and actin binding. In Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis, the differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, pathway in cancer, and extracellular matrix-receptor interaction. Seven hub genes (cyclin B2 [CCNB2], TK1, CDC20, PCNA, CKS1B, CDCA5, MCM4) were obtained. Hub genes (CCNB2, CDC20) are highly expressed in OSCC and bladder cancer samples. CCNB2 was one common oncogene of bladder cancer and OSCC.
