Abstract: Objective Glutamine is necessary for head and neck cancer cells to maintain maximum proliferation rate, this article used RNA sequence to explore the effect of glutamine deprivation on laryngeal cancer cell gene expression Changes. Methods The CCK8 assay measured laryngeal cancer cell proliferation rate, RNA sequence measured transcriptome changes of laryngeal cancer cells after glutamine deprivation, bioinformatics methods analyzed gene enrichment. Results Glutamine deprivation restricted laryngeal cancer cell proliferation, transcriptome analysis found that glutamine deprivation leads to 328 gene up-regulated and 210 genes down-regulated. GO analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes were mainly related to cell metabolism, organelle synthesis, protein and nucleotide synthesis. KEGG signaling pathway analysis showed that signaling pathways changes were mainly related to O-polysaccharides and glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis, fructose mannacil amino acids and nucleotides metabolism, and the P53 signaling pathway. Disease enrichment found that the differentially expressed genes were mainly related to head and neck carcinoma. Conclusion Glutamine deprivation restricts nucleic acid metabolism, RNA and protein binding, and affects the P53 signaling pathway.
