Imatinib is the first-line treatment of CML; however, many patients are resistant to this drug. In this study, we aimed to compare the differences in expression patterns and functions of time-series genes in imatinib-resistant CML cells under different drug treatments. GSE24946 was downloaded from the GEO database, which included 17 samples of K562-r cells with（n=12） or without drug administration（n=5）. Three drug treatment groups were considered for this study： arsenic trioxide（ATO）, AMN107, and ATO＋AMN107. Each group had one sample at each time point（3, 12, 24, and 48 h）. Time-series genes with a ratio of standard deviation/average（coefficient of variation） 〉0.15 were screened, and their expression patterns were revealed based on Short Time-series Expression Miner（STEM）. Then, the functional enrichment analysis of time-series genes in each group was performed using DAVID, and the genes enriched in the top ten functional categories were extracted to detect their expression patterns. Different time-series genes were identified in the three groups, and most of them were enriched in the ribosome and oxidative phosphorylation pathways. Time-series genes in the three treatment groups had different expression patterns and functions. Time-series genes in the ATO group（e.g. CCNA2 and DAB2） were significantly associated with cell adhesion, those in the AMN107 group were related to cellular carbohydrate metabolic process, while those in the ATO＋AMN107 group（e.g. AP2M1） were significantly related to cell proliferation and antigen processing. In imatinib-resistant CML cells, ATO could influence genes related to cell adhesion, AMN107 might affect genes involved in cellular carbohydrate metabolism, and the combination therapy might regulate genes involved in cell proliferation.展开更多
