Gene Expression Analysis of Blood Reveals S100A11 and AQP9 as Potential Biomarkers of Infective Endocarditis

ABSTRACT: BackgroundM-bM-^@M-^TDiagnosis and pronostic assessment are challenging in infective endocarditis (IE). To investigate the host response during IE and identify potential biomarkers, we determined the circulating gene expression profile through a whole genome microarray analysis. Methods and ResultsM-bM-^@M-^TA transcriptomic case-control study was performed on blood samples from patients with native valve IE (n=39), excluded IE after an initial suspicion (n=10) at patientM-bM-^@M-^Ys admission, and age-matched healthy controls (n=10). The whole genome microarray analysis showed that patients with IE exhibited a specific transcriptional program with a predominance of gene categories associated with cell activation, innate immune and inflammatory responses. These categories were organized in a dense network from which arose numerous subnetworks including major histocompatibily complex and natural killer cell network, type 1 interferon pathway and intracellular traffic. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR performed on a selection of highly modulated genes showed that the expression of the gene encoding S100 calcium binding protein A11 (S100A11) was significantly increased in patients with IE in comparison with controls (P<0.001) and patients with excluded IE (P<0.05). Interestingly, the upregulated expression of S100A11 gene was more pronounced in staphylococcal IE than in streptococcal IE (P<0.01). These results were confirmed by serum concentrations of the S100A11 protein. Finally, we showed that, in patients with IE, the upregulation of aquaporin-9 gene (AQP9) was significantly related to the occurrence of acute heart failure (P=0.02). ConclusionsM-bM-^@M-^T Using transcriptional signatures of blood samples, we identified S100A11 as a potential diagnostic marker of IE. In addition, the determination of AQP9 may improve the prognostic assessment of IE. The transcriptomic case-control study was performed in 39 consecutive patients with native valve IE (IE group) diagnosed by a multidisciplinary team who applied the modified Duke criteria,12 10 patients admitted for a suspicion of IE but with a final excluded IE diagnosis. Ten IE patients and five controls were arbitrary selected and investigated with microarrays.

Project description:Native bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (BM-MSCs) participate in generating and shaping the skeleton and bone marrow throughout the lifespan. Moreover, BM-MSCs regulate hematopoiesis by contributing to the hematopoietic stem cell niche in providing critical cytokines, chemokines and extracellular matrix components. However, BM-MSCs per se contain a heterogeneous cell population that remains ill-defined. Although studies on the taxonomy of native BM-MSCs in mice have just started to emerge, the taxonomy of native human BM-MSCs remains unelucidated. By using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), we aimed to define a proper taxonomy for native human BM non-hematopoietic subsets including endothelial cells (ECs) and mural cells (MCs) but with a focal point on MSCs. To this end, transcriptomic scRNA-seq data were generated from 5 distinct BM donors and were analyzed together with other transcriptomic data and with bioinformatics analyses at different levels to identify, characterize and classify distinct native subsets with relevant biomarkers. We could ascribe novel specific biomarkers to ECs, MCs and MSCs. Unlike ECs and MCs, MSCs exhibited an adipogenic transcriptomic pattern while co-expressing genes related to hematopoiesis support and multilineage commitment potential. Furthermore, by a comparative analysis of scRNA-seq of BM cells from humans and mice, we identified core genes conserved in both species. Notably, we identified MARCKS, CXCL12, PDGFRA, and LEPR together with adipogenic factors as archetypal biomarkers to reveal native MSCs within BM. In addition, our data suggest some complex gene nodes regulating critical biological functions of native BM-MSCs together with a preferential commitment toward an adipocyte lineage. Overall, our taxonomy for native BM non-hematopoietic compartment provides an explicit depiction of gene expression in human ECs, MCs and MSCs at single-cell resolution. This analysis helps enhance our understanding of the phenotype and the complexity of biological functions of native human BM-MSCs.

Project description:Background: There is a paucity of non-invasive markers for early detection of brain metastasis (BM) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Secretory proteomic approach based on quantitative tandem mass tag is believed to offer bright prospects for screening potential serum biomarkers for diseases. Methods: We used the secretory proteomics to identify up-regulated proteins in the highly brain metastatic cell line compared to the parental lung cancer cell line. Enzyme linked immunoassay and immunohistochemistry were performed on non-small cell lung cancer patients with brain metastasis and control samples from each cohort to verify the expression levels of candidate proteins. A logistic regression model was used to develop a biomarker panel composed of Cathepsin F (CTSF) and Fibulin-1 (FBLN1), and then an independent validation data set was used for verification. The diagnostic accuracy was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Changes in serum CTSF levels of patients were tracked to monitor the effect of treatment, and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed to assess their prognostic relevance. Results: CTSF and FBLN1 levels were specifically upregulated in sera and tissues of patients with NSCLC BM. Importantly, the combined diagnostic performance of CTSF and FBLN1 was superior to their individual diagnostic performance (sensitivity and specificity). CTSF serum changes were found to reflect the therapeutic response of patients with NSCLC BM and the trends of resistance and progression were detected earlier than the MRI changes. Elevated expression of CTSF in NSCLC BM tissues was associated with poor PFS. Moreover, CTSF tissue expression was found to be an independent prognostic factor. Conclusions: CTSF and FBLN1 are potential novel and specific serum markers for early diagnosis of BM in patients with NSCLC. CTSF can also be used as a biomarker for monitoring therapeutic efficacy and prognostic assessment.
