Abstract
Although the incidence of cervical cancer (CC) has been reduced in high-income countries due to human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and screening strategies, it remains a significant public health issue that poses a threat to women's health in low-income countries. Here, we perform a comprehensive proteogenomic profiling of CC tumors obtained from 139 Chinese women. Integrated proteogenomic analysis links genetic aberrations to downstream pathogenesis-related pathways and reveals the landscape of HPV-associated multi-omic changes. EP300 is found to enhance the acetylation of FOSL2-K222, consequently accelerating the malignant proliferation of CC cells. Proteomic stratification identifies three patient subgroups with distinct features in prognosis, genetic alterations, immune infiltration, and post-translational modification regulations. PRKCB is further identified as a potential radioresponse-related biomarker of CC patients. This study provides a valuable public resource for researchers and clinicians to delve into the molecular basis of CC, to identify potential treatments and to ultimately advance clinical practice.
