Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive disease with high mortality rates. PDAC initiation and progression are promoted by genetic and epigenetic dysregulation. Here, we aimed to characterize the PDAC DNA methylome in search of novel altered pathways associated with tumor development. We examined the genome-wide DNA methylation profile of PDAC in an exploratory cohort including the comparative analyses of tumoral and non-tumoral pancreatic tissues (PT). Pathway enrichment analysis was used to choose differentially methylated (DM) CpGs with potential biological relevance. Additional samples were used in a validation cohort. DNA methylation impact on gene expression and its association with overall survival (OS) was investigated from PDAC TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) data. Pathway analysis revealed DM genes in the calcium signaling pathway that is linked to the key pathways in pancreatic carcinogenesis. DNA methylation was frequently correlated with expression, and a subgroup of calcium signaling genes was associated with OS, reinforcing its probable phenotypic effect. Cluster analysis of PT samples revealed that some of the methylation alterations observed in the Calcium signaling pathway seemed to occur early in the carcinogenesis process, a finding that may open new insights about PDAC tumor biology.
