Abstract:
Background: Cancer is an ailment with having a very low survival rate globally. Poor cancer prognosis
is primarily caused by the fact that people are found to have the disease when it is already well advanced.
The goal of this study is to compile information on new avenues of investigation into biomarkers that may facilitate
the routine detection of cancer. Proteomic analysis has recently developed into a crucial technique for cancer
biology research, working in tandem with genomic analysis. Mass spectrometry techniques are one of several
proteome analysis techniques that allow for the highly precise quantitative and qualitative recognition of hundreds
of proteins in small quantities from various biological materials. These findings might soon serve as the
foundation for better cancer diagnostic techniques.
Methods: An exhaustive literature survey has been conducted using electronic databases such as Google Scholar,
Science Direct, and PubMed with keywords of proteomics, applications of proteomics, the technology of
proteomics, biomarkers, and patents related to biomarkers.
Result: Studies reported till 2021 focusing on cancer proteomics and the related patents have been included in
the present review to obtain concrete findings, highlighting the applications of proteomics in cancer.
Conclusion: The present review aims to present the overview and insights into cancer proteomics, recent breakthroughs
in proteomics techniques, and applications of proteomics with technological advancements, ranging
from searching biomarkers to the characterization of molecular pathways, though the entire process is still in its
infancy.
