Differential gene expression in uterine endometrioid cancer cells and adjusted normal tissue.

Endometrial cancer is a significant public health concern with rising incidence rates globally. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying this disease is crucial for developing effective therapeutic strategies. Our study aimed to characterize transcriptional changes in endometrial cancer tissues compared to adjusted healthy tissue. Using RNA sequencing, we identified 2483 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including protein-coding genes, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and microRNAs (miRNAs). Notably, several known cancer-related genes were differentially expressed, such as MYC, AKT3, CCND1, and CDKN2A. Pathway analysis revealed significant alterations in cell cycle regulation, several signaling pathways, and metabolic processes. These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular pathways dysregulated in endometrial cancer. Our results may contribute to the development of novel therapeutic targets and biomarkers for this disease.
