Comparison between the
lung cancer (L1, L2, L3, L4) and non-lung
cancer samples (H1, H2, H3, H4) by LFQ-MS. (A) Numbers of proteins
that met the LFQ normalization criteria (default in Maxquant). (B)
Protein heatmap of the samples after z-scoring. A
protein cluster was expanded with some protein of interest and their
intensity profiles (black). (C) Volcano plot with fold-change and p-values shows the t test result between
the two groups. Red: proteins more abundant in the non-lung cancer
group. Blue: proteins more abundant in the lung cancer group. Star:
6 proteins with significant difference. Filled square: proteins in
the top 20 abundances. (D) LFQ intensity of the proteins with significant
differences. Error bars: SD of the mean. P values
<0.01**; <0.001***.
