Περίληψη: Colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) remains lethal, and the convergence of cellular senescence with metabolic reprogramming via epigenomic rewiring is poorly understood. We integrated genome-wide DNA methylation and RNA-seq data from 10 paired primary tumors and liver metastases (GSE213402). After calling differentially methylated genes (3,399 hyper- and 9,519 hypomethylated) and differentially expressed genes (406 DEGs), we intersected them with curated senescence (n = 866) and metabolic reprogramming (n = 948) gene sets, yielding 28 differentially expressed cellular-senescence-related genes (DE-CSRGs) and 24 metabolic-reprogramming-related genes (DE-MRRGs). Machine-learning pipelines (LASSO + SVM-RFE) converged on a five-gene signature: CXCL1, SERPINE1, NDRG1, SRM and GATM, most of which are hypomethylated and over-expressed in metastases. Gene-set enrichment analysis revealed that these genes are involved in pathways such as oxidative phosphorylation, focal adhesion, complement-coagulation cascades, and PPAR signaling. Immune de-convolution revealed strong positive correlations between signature genes and immunosuppressive subsets (MDSCs, Tregs, type-1 T-helper cells; p < 0.05). Elevated IC50 values for oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil in metastatic samples were positively associated with NDRG1 and negatively with SRM, indicating chemo-resistance modulation. This five-gene epigenetic-transcriptomic hub identifies a molecular signature that warrants prospective validation as a potential biomarker for patient stratification and combination therapy in CRLM.
