ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Despite being rare cancers, gliomas account for a significant number of cancer-related deaths. Identification and treatment of these tumors at an early stage would greatly improve the therapeutic outcomes. There is an urgent need for diagnostic and prognostic markers, which can identify disease early and discriminate the subtypes of these tumors thereby improving the existing treatment modalities.Areas covered In this article, we have reviewed published literature on proteomics biomarkers for gliomas and their importance in diagnosis or prognosis. Proteomic studies for the discovery of protein, autoantibody biomarkers, and biological pathway alterations in serum, CSF and tumor biopsies have been discussed in this review.Expert opinion The rapid development in the field of mass spectrometry and increased sensitivity and reproducibility in assays has led to the identification and quantification of large number of proteins very precisely. Though genomic markers are the prime focus in the classification of gliomas, incorporating protein markers would further improve the existing classification. In this regard, data mining and studies on large cohorts of glioma patients would help in the identification of diagnostic and prognostic markers ultimately translating to the clinics.Palavras-chave
