This study identified the essential role of CADM1-CADM1 in the progression of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) for the first time. The high expression of CADM1-CADM1 can indicate a good prognosis and increase the sensitivity of targeted drugs.
Introduction: Advanced papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has a poor prognosis, 60 similar to 70% of which become radio iodine refractory (RAI-R), but the molecular markers that assess PTC progress to advanced PTC remain unclear. Meanwhile, current targeted therapies are badly effective due to drug resistance and adverse side effects. Ligand-receptor pairs (L/R pairs) play an important role in the interactions between tumor cells and other cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Nowadays, therapies targeting ligand-receptor pairs in the TME are advancing rapidly in the treatment of advanced cancers. However, therapies targeting L/R pairs applied to advanced PTC remains challenging because of limited knowledge about L/R pairs in PTC. Methods: We screened the critical L/R pair: CADM1-CADM1 using 65311 single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) samples from 7 patients in different stage of PTC and bulk RNA-seq datasets containing data from 487 tumor samples and 58 para-carcinoma samples. Moreover, the expression levels of CADM1-CADM1 was assessed by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and the function was analyzed using Transwell immigration assay. Results: We found that CADM1_CADM1 could be regarded as a biomarker representing a good prognosis of PTC. In addition, the high expression of CADM1_CADM1 can strongly increase the sensitivity of many targeted drugs, which can alleviate drug resistance. And the results of gRT-PCR showed us that the expression of CADM1_CADM1 in PTC was down-regulated and overexpression of CADM1 could suppresses tumor cell invasion migration. Conclusion: Our study identified that CADM1_CADM1 played an essential role in the progression of PTC for the first time and our findings provide a new potential prognostic and therapeutic ligand-receptor pair for advanced PTC.
