Proteomics analysis of different histologic subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma reveals a critical role of LRPAP1 in micropapillary pattern metastasis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Lung adenocarcinomas differ in prognosis based on their histologic growth pattern. Micropapillary growth in lung adenocarcinoma is associated with a host of adverse prognostic factors, especially metastases. Metastasis is the major cause of high mortality in lung cancer. Exploring the underlying mechanisms of metastasis in the early stage thus holds promise for identifying new therapeutic strategies that may enhance survival. We applied quantitative mass spectrometry to compare protein expression profiles in different histologic subtypes, including adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA), invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) histologic subtype includes acinar (ACI), micropapillary (MIP). We discovered that low-density lipoprotein receptor–related protein–associated protein 1 (LRPAP1) has the highest protein level in MIP, which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The co-expressed proteins in our data like PSMD1 and HSP90AB1 were also reported they are high-expressed in cancer and have important role in metastasis. Overexpressed LRPAP1 promoted migration of lung cancer cells in vitro. Our findings suggest that LRPAP1 plays an important role in promoting lung cancer cell metastasis, and may act as a novel target for anti-metastatic therapy.
