Project description:Solid tumors are complex organs comprising neoplastic cells and stroma, yet cancer cell lines remain widely used to study tumor biology, biomarkers and experimental therapy. Here, we performed a fully integrative analysis of global proteomic data comparing human colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines to primary tumors and normal tissues. We found a significant, systematic difference between cell line and tumor proteomes, with a major contribution from tumor stroma proteomes. Nevertheless, cell lines overall mirrored the proteomic differences observed between tumors and normal tissues, in particular for genetic information processing and metabolic pathways, indicating that cell lines provide a system for the study of the intrinsic molecular programs in cancer cells. Intersection of cell line data with tumor data provided insights into tumor cell specific proteome alterations driven by genomic alterations. Our integration of cell line proteogenomic data with drug sensitivity data highlights the potential of proteomic data in predicting therapeutic response. We identified representative cell lines for the proteomic subtypes of primary tumors, and linked these to drug sensitivity data to identify subtype-specific drug candidates.
Project description:Most molecular cancer therapies act on protein targets but data on the proteome status of patients and cellular models are only beginning to emerge. Here, we profiled the proteomes of 65 colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines to a depth of >10,000 proteins using mass spectrometry. Integration with proteomes of 90 CRC patients, as well as transcriptomes of 145 cell lines and 89 patients defined integrated CRC subtypes, highlighting cell lines representative of each tumour subtype. Modelling the responses of 52 CRC cell lines to 577 drugs as a function of proteome profiles enabled predicting drug sensitivity for cell lines and patients. Among many novel associations, MERTK was identified as a predictive marker for resistance towards MEK1/2 inhibitors and immunohistochemistry of 1,000 CRC tumours confirmed MERTK as a prognostic survival marker. We provide the proteomic and pharmacological data to the community to e.g. facilitate the design of innovative prospective clinical trials.
