Background: Membrane proteins participate in cell recognition and malignant transformation, and have value in terms of tumor detection and therapy. The aim of this study was to discover unique membrane proteins for gastric cancer (GC) with proteomic analysis of cell lines.Methods: Using the data-independent acquisition (DIA) strategy, we compared the relative expression levels of membrane proteins between GC and noncancer cells. Promising candidates were identified by matching proteomic data to The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) GC transcriptional profiles, and then accessed their expression using immunohistochemistry.Results: Based on about 4700 membrane proteins quantified, 2774 differentially expressed membrane proteins were identified between GC and normal cell lines. Molecular function analysis indicated that these abnormally expressed proteins were mainly involved in biological metabolic processes. Conjoint analysis of transcriptomes and proteomes provided 11 potential biomarkers (GPRC5A, PSAT1, NUDCD1, RCC2, IPO4, FAM91A1, KANK2, PRADC1, NME4, METTL7A and LRP1B) for further exploration. The downregulation of LRP1B in GC was validated by immunohistochemistry on 66 matched pairs of normal and GC tissues.Conclusions: These data provide a comprehensive overview of the proteomic phenotypes of membrane proteins in GC tumorigenesis. Based on the integrative analysis, LRP1B was identified as a meaningful indicator assisting in GC diagnosis and molecular detection.
