Integrated multi-omics analysis for non-smoking female lung adenocarcinoma in Xuanwei, China

ABSTRACT: Xuanwei lung cancer (XWLC) is well-known for its high incidence and mortality, especially among non-smoking female patients. However, the molecular mechanism is still unclear. Here, we performed a comprehensive transcriptomic, proteomic, and phosphoproteomic characterization of tumors and matched normal adjacent tissues from three non-smoking female XWLC patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Integrated transcriptome and proteome analysis revealed dysregulated molecules and pathways in tumors and identified enhanced metabolic-disease coupling. Non-coding RNAs were widely involved in post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms to coordinate the progress of LUAD, and also partially explained the molecular differences between RNA and protein expression patterns. Phosphoproteome provided evidence support for new phosphate sites, reporting the potential roles of core kinase family members and key kinase pathways involved in metabolism, immunity, as well as homeostasis. In addition, by comparing with the previous large-scale LUAD researches, we emphasized the higher degree of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in Xuanwei LUAD, and pointed that VIPR1 deficiency aggravated immune dysfunction. Overall, our integrated multi-omics analysis provided a powerful resource for a systematic understanding of the molecular structure of XWLC and proposed therapeutic opportunities based on redox metabolism and immune cell infiltration.
