a Barplot showing WGD fraction in each multiomics subtype from our study and CPTAC NSCLC patients. b Overlap of copy number signatures for the five multiomics subtypes, with the colors indicating the odds ratio from one-sided Fisher’s exact test. The COSMIC v3 signature and etiology for each signature are indicated on the y-axis. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001 (one-sided Fisher’s exact test). c Top 10 most significantly enriched copy number variations (CNVs) in Subtype 3 (FDR < 0.1). The y-axis indicates the cytoband and the x-axis shows the log10-scaled FDR from linear regressions comparing Subtype 3 and other samples. d Enriched co-mutations in each subtype in both our and the CPTAC cohorts. EGFR mutation, missense mutation, in-frame deletion, frameshift deletion, and amplifications were counted. For TP53 and CDKN2A, amplifications were excluded, and for SOX2, only amplifications were counted. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001 (one-sided Fisher’s exact test). e Protein-level gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealing upregulated and downregulated pathways in Subtype 3 of both cohorts. The x- and y-axis are enrichment scores (ES) from the current study and CPTAC NSCLC data, respectively. Labeled pathways are the top-5 upregulated pathways in Subtype 3. The Molecular Signatures Database (MSigDB) hallmark gene set v7.4 was used for GSEA. f Subtype 3-specific kinase activity scores. The sizes of the points indicate -log10(FDR) from kinase activity estimation. Significantly up- and downregulated kinases are labeled (FDR < 0.05). g Elevated protein expression of XPO1 in Subtype 3 is shown for our study (Subtype 1, n = 55; Subtype 2, n = 45; Subtype 3, n = 52; Subtype 4, n = 43; Subtype 5, n = 34) and CPTAC LSCC (Subtype 1, n = 11; Subtype 2, n = 19; Subtype 3, n = 42; Subtype 4, n = 15; Subtype 5, n = 21). Kruskal-Wallis test was performed to test the differences in expression. WGD status is marked by red dots and the y-axis shows log2 protein expression levels. For box-plots, middle line, median; box edges, 25th and 75th percentiles; whiskers, most extreme points that do not exceed ± 1.5 × IQR. h Sample information (top), drug response curve (middle), and IC50 (bottom) for selinexor (XPO1 inhibitor) for lung organoids highlighting a higher sensitivity in WGD-positive LSCC organoids. Three technical replicates were tested in each organoid sample. For IC50 barplot, dots indicate each replicate, and error bars indicate average ± 1 standard deviation. i WGD-related pathway underlying Subtype 1 LUAD tumors and Subtype 3 LSCC tumors. Significantly upregulated kinases are highlighted with red triangles (FDR < 0.05) and mutations are shown in purple boxes. Kinase activity scores are estimated from phosphoprotein expression. The log2 fold changes from DE analyses are indicated by the color in each box. For the phosphoproteome, only features with FDR less than 0.1 are displayed.
