Mapping three-dimensional intratumor proteomic heterogeneity in uterine serous carcinoma by multiregion microsampling
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Uterine serous carcinoma (USC) represents only a small proportion of all uterine cancer cases, but patients with this aggressive subtype typically have high rates of chemotherapy resistance, disease recurrence, and constitute a disproportionately high percentage of the deaths. Improving the clinical management of USC is predicated by better characterization of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the molecular features driving disease pathology. To improve our understanding of intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) within the USC TME, we investigated proteome and transcriptome alterations in spatially resolved laser microdissection (LMD) enriched cellular subpopulations from nine USC patient tumor tissue specimens. LMD enriched samples were analyzed via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), reverse phase protein microarray (RPPA), and targeted RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq).
