This review highlights the association between aberrant glycosylation and prostate cancer, focusing on the application of mass spectrometry in glycoprotein analysis. The glycoforms of prostate specific antigen and the insights provided by mass spectrometric analysis are discussed, shedding light on the mechanisms linking abnormal glycosylation to cancer progression.
Aberrant glycosylation has long been known to be associated with cancer, since it is involved in key mechanisms such as tumour onset, development and progression. This review will focus on protein glycosylation studies in cells, tissue, urine and serum in the context of prostate cancer. A dedicated section will cover the glycoforms of prostate specific antigen, the molecule that, despite some important limitations, is routinely tested for helping prostate cancer diagnosis. Our aim is to provide readers with an overview of mass spectrometry-based glycoproteomics of prostate cancer. From this perspective, the first part of this review will illustrate the main strategies for glycopeptide enrichment and mass spectrometric analysis. The molecular information obtained by glycoproteomic analysis performed by mass spectrometry has led to new insights into the mechanism linking aberrant glycosylation to cancer cell proliferation, migration and immunoescape.
