    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To screen the serum biomarker proteins of lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCCs) by liquid chip-mass spectrometry technology. METHODS: All serum samples, including 34 SCCs, 46 benign lung diseases (BLDs) and 44 healthy individuals, were analyzed by CLINPROT system in order to study the serum protein expression profiles. Then the discriminatory proteins were detected by FlexAnalysis 3.0 software. Biomarkers were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LCMS/MS). RESULTS: Comparing the differential serum expression proteins between SCCs and healthy individuals, and SCCs and BLDs respectively. Ninety-six differential protein peaks [mass-to-charge ration (M/Z) between 800 and 10 000] were found between SCCs and healthy individuals. In these protein peaks, the expression of protein peaks at 4054.13 M/Z and 4267.46 M/Z had the largest difference between them. The two protein peaks could accurately separate SCCs from healthy individuals by the frame of axes. Similarly, 99 differential protein peaks were automatically detected between SCCs and BLDs. In these protein peaks, the expression of protein peaks at 5065.27 M/Z and 4054.02 M/Z had the largest difference between them. The two protein peaks could accurately separate SCCs from BLDs by the frame of axes. Identified by LC-MS/MS, 1778 M/Z and 1865 M/Z might be assayed jointly and corresponded to complements C3 fragment or C3f precursor. CONCLUSIONS: Differential protein expressions existed between SCCs versus healthy individuals and SCCs versus BLD patients. It is feasible to screen the diagnostic serum biomarkers of SCC with a high sensitivity and specificity by using CLINPROT system.
