Comparative Analysis of Transcriptomic and Proteomic Expression between Two Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Subtypes.

ABSTRACT: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is frequently diagnosed late and has poor survival. The two predominant subtypes of NSCLC, adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), are currently differentially diagnosed using immunohistochemical markers; however, they are increasingly recognized as very different cancer types suggestive of potential for new, more targeted therapies. There are extensive efforts to find more precise and noninvasive differential diagnostic tools. Here, we examined these two NSCLC subtypes for differences that may inform treatment and identify potential novel therapeutic pathways. We presented a comparative analysis of transcriptomic and proteomic expression in tumors from a cohort of 22 NSCLC patients: 8 LUSC and 14 LUAD. Comparing NSCLC subtypes, we found
