Description
Summary:The diffuse-type gastric cancer (DGC) constitutes a subgroup of gastric cancer with poor prognosis and no effective molecular therapies. Here, we report a phosphoproteomic landscape of DGC derived from 83 tumors together with their nearby tissues. Based on phosphorylation, DGC could be classified into three molecular subtypes with distinct overall survival (OS) and chemosensitivity. We identified 16 kinases whose activities were associated with poor OS. These activated kinases covered several cancer hallmark pathways, with the MTOR signaling network being the most frequently activated. We proposed a patient-specific strategy based on the hierarchy of clinically actionable kinases for prioritization of kinases for further clinical evaluation. Our global data analysis indicates that in addition to finding activated kinase pathways in DGC, large-scale phosphoproteomics could be used to classify DGCs into subtypes that are associated with distinct clinical outcomes as well as nomination of kinase targets that may be inhibited for cancer treatments.
