Human neutrophil peptide (HNP) 1-3, used as diagnostic and therapeutic molecular probes, are found in clinical tissues of gastric cancer patients. In the analytical process according to the present disclosure, pairs of gastric cancer tissues are used to seek the putative biomarkers by proteomic strategy based on matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-imaging mass spectrometry (MALDI-IMS). Then, three differential biomarkers, including HNP-1, -2 and -3, are identified (P<0.001) and overexpressed in gastric cancer. At last, western blotting and immunohistochemistry are used to validate the protein expression in gastric cancer tissues. In conclusion, the use of the up-regulated proteins, HNP1-3, helps diagnosis and therapy in clinical for gastric cancer after validating the sensitivity and specificity. |
