Sixty-nine different proteins in the tumor tissue from a gastric cancer case were identified by 2D-EP and LC-ESI-MS/MS, which included stress proteins, Hsp70, Hsp90 and chaperonine-containing TCP1 (CCT), for self-protection; glycolytic enzymes, triose phosphate isomerase 1, α-enolase and PGK-1, for the growing energy requirement; cytoskeletal proteins, ezrin, gelsolin isoform b and vimentin; proteins involved in cell differentiation and proliferation, galectin-3 and transferrin; and proteins exhibiting putative tumor suppressor activity, FOV. This evidence concerns the gene PGK1 and neoplasm.
