Abstract
Discover potential biomarkers of the response for anti-cancer therapies, including traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is a critical but much different task in the field of cancer research. Based on accumulated data and sophisticated methods, multi-omics analysis provides a feasible strategy for the discovery of potential therapeutic biomarkers. Here, we screened the potential therapeutic biomarkers for anti-cancer compounds in TCM through multi-omics data analysis. Firstly, compounds in TCM were collected from the public databases. Then, the molecules that those compounds can intervene on cell lines were carefully filtered out from existing drug bioactivity datasets. Finally, multi-omics analysis including gene mutation analysis, differential expression gene analysis, copy number variation analysis and clinical survival analysis for pan-cancer were conducted to screen potential therapeutic biomarkers for compounds in TCM. 13 molecules of compounds in TCM namely ERBB2, MYC, FLT4, TEK, GLI1, TOP2A, PDE10A, SLC6A3, GPR55, TERT, EGFR, KCNA3 and HDAC4 are differentially expressed, high frequently mutated, obtain high copy number variation rate and also significant in survival, are considered as the potential therapeutic biomarkers.
