PURPOSE: There are no blood biomarkers to detect early-stage oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) prior to clinical signs. Most OSCC incidence is associated with significant morbidity and poor survival. The authors aimed to use mass-spectrometry (MS) technology to find specific N-glycopeptides potentially serving as serum biomarkers for preclinical OSCC screening.
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Serum samples from 14 patients treated for OSCC (stage I or stage IV) with 12 age- and sex-matched controls are collected. Quantitative label-free N-glycoproteomics is performed, with MS/MS analysis of the statistically significantly different N-glycopeptides.
RESULTS: Combined with a database search using web-based software (GlycopeptideID), MS/MS provided detailed N-glycopeptide information, including glycosylation site, glycan composition, and proposed structures. Thirty-eight tryptic N-glycopeptides are identified, having 19 unique N-glycosylation sites representing 14 glycoproteins. OSCC patients, including stage I tumors, can be differentiated from healthy controls based on the expression levels of these glycoforms. N-glycopeptides of IgG1, IgG4, haptoglobin, and transferrin have statistically significant different abundances between cases and controls.
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The authors are the first to suggest specific N-glycopeptides to serve as potential serum biomarkers to detect preclinical OSCC in patients. These N-glycopeptides are the lead candidates for validation as future diagnostic modalities of OSCC as early as stage I.
