Project description:Early detection of small cell lung cancer crucially demands highly reliable markers. Growing evidence suggests that extracellular vesicles carry tumor cell-specific cargo suitable as protein markers in cancer. Therefore, we isolated plasma-derived exosomes from newly diagnosed small cell lung cancer patients and investigated proteome dynamics of these exosomes aiming at improving the detection of small cell lung cancer. A total of 1,016 proteins were initially identified. After data processing and statistical analysis, several proteins were found to be differentially expressed in comparing small cell lung cancer patients and healthy individuals, indicating that circulating exosomes may encompass specific proteins with potential diagnostic attributes for small cell lung cancer. Furthermore, our data may indicate a novel tumor-suppressing role of blood coagulation and involvement of complement activation in small cell lung cancer pathogenesis.

Project description:Platelets are central to the pathophysiology of myocardial infarction (MI). How the platelet proteome is altered during MI is unknown. We sought to describe changes in the platelet proteome at the time of MI and identify potential mechanisms. Platelets from patients experiencing ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) before and 3 days after treatment (n= 30), and a matched cohort of patients with severe stable coronary artery disease(CAD) prior to and 3 days after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG, n=25) underwent quantitative proteomic analysis. Elevations of the alarmins S100A8 and S100A9 were detected at the time of STEMI compared with stable CAD (S100A8, FC = 2.00, FDR = 0.05; S100A9, FC = 2.28, FDR = 0.005). During STEMI, S100A8 mRNA and protein levels were correlated in platelets (R = 0.46, p = 0.012). To determine if protein synthesis occurs, activated platelets were incubated with 13C-labelled amino acids for 24 hours and analyzed by mass spectrometry. No incorporation was detected, consistent with the notion that protein synthesis in platelets is not a major contributor to the platelet proteome. Platelet abundance of S100A8 and A9 was strongly correlated with neutrophil abundance at the time of STEMI. When isolated platelets and neutrophils were co-incubated under quiescent and TRAP-6 activated conditions, release of S100A8 from neutrophils resulted in uptake of S100A8 by platelets. Leukocyte-to-platelet protein transfer, rather than protein synthesis, may occur in a thromboinflammatory environment such as STEMI, representing a potential new contributor in the innate immune pathogenesis of STEMI.

Project description:Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of human morbidity and mortality worldwide, underscoring the need to improve diagnostic strategies. Platelets play a major role, not only in the process of acute thrombosis during plaque rupture, but also in the formation of atherosclerosis itself. MicroRNAs are endogenous small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression and are expressed in a tissue and disease-specific manner. Therefore they have been proposed to be useful biomarkers. The aim of this study was to investigate whether differences in miRNA expression levels in platelets can be found (i) between patients with premature CAD and healthy controls and (ii) within healthy controls after and before aspirin and statin administration. In this case-control study we measured expression levels of platelet miRNAs using microarrays from 40 male patients with premature CAD and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Premature CAD was defined as a cardiac event before the age of 51 years. The patients were selected from the outpatient clinic of the Academic Medical Center (AMC) of Amsterdam, which is specialised in premature CAD. The control cohort was composed of 40 healthy Caucasian male volunteers, who were recruited by advertisement and who were matched with the cases for age and smoking habits. Individuals of this control cohort did not have a history of CVD, nor did they have a positive family history of CVD and they were not allowed to use any medication. Patients and controls were excluded when they suffered from diabetes. Most CAD patients use aspirin and statins as secondary prevention. The influence of these drugs on miRNA profiles is unknown. To assess the possible influence of medication on miRNA expression and to control for medication as confounding factor, we asked 27 volunteers in our control cohort to also use these drugs. We administered simvastatin 40 mg, once daily, for 6 weeks and during the last two weeks we added 100mg of acetyl salicylic acid, once daily. Blood samples including isolated platelets were collected at baseline in the absence of aspirin and statins and after six weeks of medication use. We also assessed platelet function using the Multiplate® Analyzer (Roche) in the absence of aspirin and statin use. In short, 300 µl whole blood was diluted with 300 µl 0.9% saline and stirred for 3 minutes at 37 ºC. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was added in a final concentration of 2.5 ?mol/L to initiate platelet aggregation. Aggregation was measured for 6 minutes and was reported in arbitrary aggregation units plotted against time. Also, the area under the aggregation curve (AUC) was measured. All samples were measured in the absence and presence of 200 ?mol/L indomethacin (20 min incubation with blood) to mimic the effect of aspirin use. We calculated the percentage reduction in AUC after incubation with indomethacin as an in vitro measure of the effect of aspirin use on whole blood platelet aggregation.

Project description:Early detection of small cell lung cancer crucially demands highly reliable markers. Growing evidence suggests that extracellular vesicles carry tumor cell-specific cargo suitable as protein markers in cancer. Therefore, we isolated plasma-derived microvesicles from newly diagnosed small cell lung cancer patients and investigated proteome dynamics of these microvesicles aiming at improving the detection of small cell lung cancer. A total of 1,223 proteins were initially identified. After data processing and statistical analysis, several proteins were found to be differentially expressed in comparing small cell lung cancer patients and healthy individuals. Furthermore, our data may indicate involvement of complement activation, integrin-mediated signaling, cell adhesion- and migration, and blood coagulation in small cell lung cancer pathogenesis.

Project description:The goal of this experiment was to explore how human platelets affect the transcriptional responses of primary human CD14+ blood monocytes to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and NLRP3 activation with Nigericin. For this purpose, we analyzed the mRNA expression of 770 myeloid-specific transcripts using the nCounter® Nanostring Human Myeloid Innate Immunity Panel v2. We isolated classical monocytes (CD14+CD16−) from the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers. Monocytes were derived from PBMCs using negative selection with the EasySep™ Human Monocyte Isolation Kit from STEMCELLTM Technologies. We modified this process by either including or excluding a platelet-depleting cocktail, creating two groups: \\"Standard Monocytes (StdMo)\\" and \\"Platelet-depleted Monocytes (PdMo).\\" To examine the impact of platelets further, we supplemented PdMos with fresh autologous platelets at a ratio of 50 platelets per monocyte, resulting in a third group, \\"PdMo + Plts.\\" StdMos were prepared according to the standard protocol provided by the EasySep™ Kit. For the PdMos, a Platelet Removal Component (50 µl ml−1) from the kit was used during isolation. We also reconstituted platelet-depleted monocytes with platelets and analyzed platelets alone to determine their specific mRNA contributions. The groups—StdMo, PdMo, PdMo + Plts, and platelets alone—were then exposed to 2 ng/ml of Ultrapure LPS (from E. coli O111:B4) for 4.5 hours, or stimulated with LPS for 3 hours followed by inflammasome activation with Nigericin (10 µM) for 90 min before extracting RNA for analysis.

Project description:Intercellular communication via extracellular vesicles (EVs) is a highly dynamic and specific process. The interaction between EVs and their target cells, especially immune cells, results in functional and phenotype changes that consequently may play a significant role in various physiological states and the pathogenesis of immune-mediated disorders. Monocytes are the most prominent environment sensing immune cells in circulation, skilled to shape their microenvironments via cytokine secretion and further differentiation. Both the circulating monocyte subset distribution and the blood plasma EV pattern are characteristic for preeclampsia, a pregnancy induced immune-mediated hypertensive disorder. We hypothesized that preeclampsia-associated EVs (PE-EVs) induced functional and phenotypic alterations of monocytes. First we proved EV binding and uptake by THP-1 cells. Cellular origin and protein cargo of circulating PE-EVs were characterized by flow cytometry and mass spectrometry. An altered phagocytosis-associated molecular pattern was found on PE-EVs: an elevated CD47 “don’t eat me” signal and decreased exofacial phosphatidylserine “eat-me” signal were found along with decreased uptake of PE-EVs. PE-EVs induced significantly lower chemotaxis and cell motility, but accelerated cell adhesion of THP-1 cells. PE-EVs caused sustained TNF production of THP-1 cells. PE-EVs induced altered monocyte functions suggest that circulating PE-EVs may have a role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.

Project description:Both sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) rely on imprecise clinical definitions leading to heterogeneity, which has contributed to negative trials. Because circulating protein/DNA complexes have been implicated in sepsis and ARDS, we aimed to develop a proteomic signature of DNA-bound proteins to discriminate between children with sepsis with and without ARDS. We performed a prospective case-control study in 12 children with sepsis with ARDS matched to 12 children with sepsis without ARDS on age, severity of illness score, and source of infection. We performed co-immunoprecipitation and downstream proteomics in plasma collected ≤ 24 h of intensive care unit admission. Expression profiles were generated, and a random forest classifier was used on differentially expressed proteins to develop a signature which discriminated ARDS. The classifier was tested in six independent blinded samples. Neutrophil and nucleosome proteins were over-represented in ARDS, including two S100A proteins, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and three histones. Random forest produced a 10-protein signature that accurately discriminated between children with sepsis with and without ARDS. This classifier perfectly assigned six independent blinded samples as having ARDS or not. We validated higher expression of the most informative discriminating protein, galectin-3-binding protein, in children with ARDS. Our methodology has applicability to isolation of DNA-bound proteins from plasma. Our results support the premise of a molecular definition of ARDS, and give preliminary insight into why some children with sepsis, but not others, develop ARDS.
