Initial Insights on the Proteomic Profile of Filipino Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma (NSCLC)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: NSCLC remains to be the leading cause of cancer incidence and mortality in the Philippines. Early diagnosis, better understanding on the mechanisms of drug resistance, and proper treatment monitoring is necessary to lower the incidence and mortality rate of NSCLC. This study was able to provide initial insights on the proteomic profile of Filipino NSCLC by quantitative proteomic analysis and identification of aberrant expressions in the tumor tissue relative to the adjacent normal tissue specimen. A total of 4518 proteins were identified and from this, 1855 proteins were found to be significantly upregulated and downregulated. Functional and pathway analysis was done to the upregulated and downregulated proteins with at least 4-fold expression change. Pathway analysis revealed the possible activation of the upregulated protein, MUC1, which is a known oncogenic driver involved in the stimulation of pathways that promote angiogenesis in NSCLC tumor, and prevention of apoptosis. STAT1 and STAT3, also found upregulated in the tumor specimen, were known to have interactions with MUC1 which results to expression of proteins for cell proliferation. The analysis also suggests the stabilization of HIF which allows cell growth in the hypoxic tumor environment, and the activation of EIF signaling correlated with low survival rate of NSCLC patients. Our data demonstrate the rich proteomic information that can be obtained from comprehensive profiling of the NSCLC proteome and applications for better understanding of NSCLC tumorigenicity.
