Genomewide expression profiling of multibacillary leprosy lesions before and after multi-drug therapy (MDT)

ABSTRACT: [Aim] To characterize the transcriptomic changes in skin lesions of lepromatous leprosy patients before and after multidrug therapy (MDT). Likewise, not all patients improve their bacillary index after MDT. Thus, the further analysis aims to compare patients who responded or did not to MDT and identify underlying modulated genes. [Design] Lepromatous patients were treated for 12 months with multidrug therapy. Skin biopsy samples were collected before (BT) and after treatment (AT). At the end of 12 months of MDT, those who decreased their bacillary index by at least one log10 unit were considered responders (R) and otherwise non-responders (NR). RNA was isolated, poly-A captured, and sequenced. Comparisons both within-patient and between-patients were done. [Results] At the end of MDT, genes involved with lipid metabolism, innate and adaptive immunity, extracellular matrix, and epidermis development were all differentially expressed. Comparisons between responders and non-responders to MDT identified differentially expressed genes involved with lipid metabolism, semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway, epidermis development, and vasculogenesis. This study identified gene expression signatures modulated after 12 months of MDT. Also, a subset of patients with poor bacterial clearance has dysregulated pathways relative to responders.

Bulk RNA-seq validation experiments for \High dimensional single cell analysis predicts response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy\

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade has revolutionized cancer therapy. In particular, inhibition of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) is effective for the treatment of metastatic melanoma and other cancers. Despite a dramatic increase in progression-free survival, a large proportion of patients do not show durable response. Therefore, predictive biomarkers of clinical response are urgently needed. Here, we employed high-dimensional single cell mass cytometry and a bioinformatics pipeline for the in-depth characterization of the immune cell subsets in the peripheral blood of metastatic melanoma patients before and after anti-PD-1 immunotherapy. During therapy, we observed a clear treatment response to immunotherapy in the T cell compartment. However, prior to commending therapy a strong predictor of progression free and overall survival in response to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy was the frequency of CD14+CD16-HLA-DRhi monocytes. We could confirm this by conventional flow cytometry in an independent validation cohort and propose this as a novel predictive biomarker for therapy decisions in the clinic. In order to determine whether there are cell intrinsic changes in the monocyte signature, we performed RNA sequencing on sorted CD14+CD16-HLA-DRhi cells from HD, NR and R at baseline. Representative samples (n=4, each) of responders/non responders/ and healthy donors were selected from archival samples stored in the dermatology biobank according to the same clinical criteria used in the discovery and validation cohorts for CyTOF and FACS analysis. CD14+CD16-HLA-DRhiLin- (CD3, CD4, CD19, CD45RO) monocytes were sorted from frozen PBMC form blood samples from HD, R and NR at baseline.

Proteomics-based insights into mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor resistance of cerebral melanoma metastases

Project description:Background MAP kinase inhibitor (MAPKi) therapy for BRAF mutated melanoma is characterized by high response rates but also development of drug resistance within a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 9 to 12 months. Understanding mechanisms of resistance and identifying effective therapeutic alternatives is one of the most important scientific challenges in melanoma. Using proteomics, we want to specifically gain insight into the pathophysiological process of cerebral metastases. Methods Cerebral metastases from melanoma patients were prepared for MS analysis by tryptic digestion. Mass spectrometric analysis was performed on a QExactive HF hybrid quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometer, equipped with a nanospray ion source, coupled with a nano HPLC system. Results In this pilot study, we were able to identify 5,977 proteins by LC-MS analysis. Samples were classified into good and poor responders based on PFS. By evaluating these proteomic profiles according to gene ontology (GO) terms, KEGG pathways and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), we could characterize differences between the two distinct groups. We further detected an EMT signature, V-type proton ATPases, calcium ion binding proteins, eukaryotic translation initiation factors, cell adhesion proteins and several transporter and exchanger proteins to be significantly up-regulated in poor responding patients, whereas good responders showed an immune-activation and involvement of extracellular matrix structural constituents, among other features. Subsequently we identified the most class-discriminating proteins based on nearest shrunken centroids. Conclusions Using proteomics helped to identify already known extra-cerebral resistance mechanisms in the cerebral metastases and further discovered possible brain specific mechanisms of drug efflux, which might serve as interesting targets, especially for treatment of these types of metastases or as predictive marker.

Resistance to aerobic exercise training causes metabolic dysfunction and reveals novel exercise-regulated signaling networks

Project description:Low aerobic exercise capacity is a risk factor for diabetes and strong predictor of mortality; yet some individuals are exercise resistant, and unable to improve exercise capacity through exercise training. To test the hypothesis that resistance to aerobic exercise training underlies metabolic disease-risk, we used selective breeding for 15 generation to develop rat models of low- and high-aerobic response to training. Before exercise training, rats selected as low- and high-responders had similar exercise capacities. However, after 8-wks of treadmill training low-responders failed to improve their exercise capacity, while high-responders improved by 54%. Remarkably, low-responders to aerobic training exhibited pronounced metabolic dysfunction characterized by insulin resistance and increased adiposity, demonstrating that the exercise resistant phenotype segregates with disease risk. Low-responders had impaired exercise-induced angiogenes0is in muscle; however, mitochondrial capacity was intact and increased normally with exercise training, demonstrating that mitochondria are not limiting for aerobic adaptation or responsible for metabolic dysfunction in low-responders. Low-responders had increased stress/inflammatory signaling and altered TGFM-NM-2 signaling, characterized by hyperphosphorylation of a novel exercise-regulated phosphorylation site on SMAD2. Using this powerful biological model system we have discovered key pathways for low exercise training response that may represent novel targets for the treatment of metabolic disease. Cardiac and skeletal muscle from 3 high and 3 low responder rats were examined for differential miRNA expression using Exiqon microarrays

Proteomic profiling to predict therapeutic response to anti-PD1 therapy in advanced melanoma

Project description:Purpose Antibody-blockade of PD-1 shows durable responses, but so far, few biomarkers accurately predict if patients with metastatic melanoma will respond. Experimental design We analyzed baseline serum samples (n=56) and tumor cell cultures (n=8), from melanoma patients treated with anti-PD1 therapy. Two approaches concentrating low abundant proteins in serum and two different mass spectrometry (MS) methods were applied: depletion of high abundant proteins with shotgun-MS, and N-glycosite enrichment combined with SWATH-MS. Tumor cell cultures were processed as whole cell lysates with subsequent shotgun-MS. Results Focusing on the non-responder proteome, we identified pathways such as inflammatory processes, cell adhesion and migration, scavenger receptor activity, RAGE receptor binding, platelet aggregation, neutrophil degranulation and integrin signaling to be upregulated. Analyzing the tumor cell proteome revealed a distinctive immunophenotype with CD antigens highly overexpressed in non-responders. Validation of a subset of these markers, performed by immunofluorescence staining of a tissue microarray, revealed a higher mean of positive cells in the tumor microenvironment of non-responders. Validation of serum proteome markers on a second baseline cohort by using a timsTOF for ion mobility MS, revealed significant differences between responder and non-responder for the proteins ORM2, SERPINA1, EFEMP1, and VASN. TCGA survival analysis demonstrated prognostic significance for multiple proteins of our signature correlating with lower overall survival in melanoma patients. Based on this study, we suggest a protein-panel for responsiveness to PD-1 blockade consisting of 14 serum and 33 tumor cell markers that will be the basis for further research.

miRNA expression profile in leprosy skin biopsy specimens

Project description:Skin biopsy specimens of skin lesions were profiled for miRNA expression. In this study, we indentified miRNA species that were differentially expressed in the skin lesions of either the lepromatous or tuberculoid forms of leprosy. One miRNA species, hsa-mir-21, found in the lepromatous lesions was capable of downregulating the vitamin D-dependent antimicrobial pathway. Scalpel or punch skin biopsy specimens were obtained after informed consent from patients with tuberculoid leprosy and patients with lepromatous leprosy at the time of diagnosis. Specimens were embedded in OCT medium, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at 80°C until sectioning.

Identification of markers of responsiveness in rheumatoid arthritis patients

Project description:Despite the increasing of available drugs in RA, the overall rate of non response is 30 to 40% of treated patients. To optimize the drug prescription and better elaborate the therapeutic strategies, gene profiling in PBMCs was used to predict the responsiveness to anakinra. Thirty two patients treated by anakinra (100mg/day s.c.) and mÃ©thotrexate, were categorized as responders whenever a change of Disease Activity Score 28 > 1.2 was obtained at 3 months. Blood from treated patients was collected at baseline. In 7 responders and 7 non responders, 51 mRNAs identified by microarray were expressed as a function of the response to treatment and an unsupervised hierarchical clustering perfectly separated responders from non responders. Keywords: anakinra effect PBMC then RNA were extracted from blood samples of 7 anakinra responders, 7 anakinra non responders and 1 pool of healthy subjects used as control. Each sample was hybridized twice in different nylon membrane. The control sample was hybridized twice in each nylon membrane.

Transcription profiling of CD34 positive mononuclear cells from drug naive, chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients to determine an expression signature predictive of a major cytogenic response in CML patients treated with Imatinib.

Project description:Newly diagnosed chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with a major cytogenetic response (MCyR) after 12 months of imatinib therapy have an excellent long-term outcome, while patients without MCyR have a high progression risk. Since patients with primary cytogenetic resistance may benefit from more intensive therapy up-front, we sought to identify biomarkers to predict MCyR. Keywords: Two group comparison to identify trasncriptomic signature that predicts response to therapy CD34+ cells were isolated from cryopreserved mononuclear cells of chronic phase CML patients with a complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) or >65% Ph-positive metaphases after 12 months of imatinib therapy (training set N=36). Gene expression profiles generated on amplified RNA using Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 arrays were compared between responders and non-responders, using the criteria ANOVA p<0.1 and fold difference >I1.5I. A minimal response classifier derived from the comparison was used to predict response in a prospectively collected validation set using same criteria for responders/nonresponders (N=23).
