Abstract:
Currently, cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, partially owing to the lack of early diagnosis methods and effective therapies. With the rapid development of various omics, the precision medicine strategy becomes a promising way to increase the survival rates by considering individual differences. Glycosylation is one of the most essential protein post-translational modifications and plays important roles in a variety of biological processes. Therefore, it is highly possible to acquire understanding of the molecular mechanisms as well as discover novel potential markers for diagnosis and prognosis based on glycoproteomics research. This review summarizes the recent glycoproteomics studies about N-glycosylation of several cancer types, mainly in the past 5 years. We also highlight corresponding mass spectrometry-based analytical methods to give a brief overview on the main techniques applied in glycoproteomics.
