N2 - Prostate cancer, bladder cancer, and renal cancers are major urogenital cancers. Of which, prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed and second leading cause of cancer death for men in the United States. For urogenital cancers, urine is considered as proximate body fluid to the tumor site for developing non-invasiveness tests. However, the specific molecular signatures from different urogenital cancers are needed to relate changes in urine to various cancer detections. Herein, we utilized a previously published C4-Tip and C18/MAX-Tip workflow for enrichment of glycopeptides from urine samples and evaluated urinary glycopeptides for its cancer specificity. We analyzed 66 urine samples from bladder cancer (n = 27), prostate cancer (n = 4), clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC, n = 3), and benign plastic hyperplasia (BPH, n = 32) and then compared them with a previous publication that reported glycopeptides associated with aggressive prostate cancer (Gleason score ≥ 8). We further demonstrated the cancer specificity of the glycopeptides associated with aggressive prostate cancer. In this study, a total of 33 glycopeptides were identified to be specifically differentially expressed in prostate cancer compared to other urogenital cancer types as well as BPH urines. By cross-comparison with our previous urinary glycoproteomic dataset for aggressive prostate cancer, we reported a total of four glycopeptides from glycoproteins DSC2, MGAM, PIK3IP1, and CD55, commonly identified to be prostate cancer-specific. Together, these results deepen our understanding of the urinary glycoproteins associated with urogenital cancer types and expand our knowledge of the cancer specificity of urinary glycoproteins among urogenital cancer progression.
