Identification of urine biomarkers associated with lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) progression is accompanied by changes in protein levels that may be reflected in body fluids, such as urine. Urine collected from LAC patients (n=34) and healthy controls (n=36) was analyzed via matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) combined with weak cationic exchange magnetic beads. The results revealed 76 urinary polypeptides significantly different between LAC patients and normal controls (P<0.05). Twenty-two of these peptides were up-regulated and 54 were down-regulated. Thirteen peptides had average peak intensities >600. Twelve of these 13 peptides were successfully identified using nano-liquid chromatography-tandem MS. Receiver operating characteristic analyses identified seven peptides with superior LAC diagnostic performances. Immunohistochemical staining in 20 paired LAC and adjacent normal tissues showed that IGKC, AAT, SH3BGRL3, osteopontin and gelsolin levels were higher in LAC tissues than in adjacent tissuesand were closely associated with LAC. Urinary peptides assessments may thus provide a novel, noninvasive, repeatable method for detecting and monitoring LAC. New, low-cost detection methods and bioinformatics tools are therefore urgently needed for the analysis of low abundance proteins and peptides in body fluids.

Project description:Objective Cancer stemness and M2 macrophages are intimately linked to the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). For this reason, this investigation sought to identify the key genes relevant to cancer stemness and M2 macrophages, explore the relationship between these genes and clinical characteristics, and determine the potential mechanism. Methods LUAD transcriptomic data was analyzed from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) as well as the Gene Expression Omnibus databases. Differential expression analysis was performed to discern abnormally expressed genes between LUAD and control samples in TCGA cohort. The Cell type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of RNA Transcripts (CIBERSORT) algorithm was applied to determine varyingly infiltrated immune cells in LUAD compared with the control samples in TCGA cohort. Weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was performed to identify genes associated with mRNA expression-based stemness index (mRNAsi) and M2 macrophages. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), RandomForest (RF) and support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) machine learning methods were conducted to detect gene signatures. Global survival evaluation (Kaplan-Meier curve) was applied to investigate the relationship between gene signatures and the survival time of LUAD patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were produced to define biomarkers relevant to diagnosis. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was performed to probe the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways related to diagnostic biomarkers. The public single-cell dataset of LUAD (GSE123902) was used to investigate the expression differences of diagnostic biomarkers in various cell types in LUAD. Real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to confirm key genes in lung adenocarcinoma cells. Results A total of 5,410 differentialy expressed genes (DEGs) as well as 15 differentially infiltrated immune cells were identified between LUAD and control sepcimens in TCGA cohort. Thirty-seven DEGs were associated with both M2 macrophages and mRNAsi according to the WGCNA analysis. Sixteen common gene signatures were obtained using three diverse algorithms. CBFA2T3, DENND3 and FCAMR were correlated to overall and disease-free survival of LUAD patients. ROC curves revealed that CBFA2T3 and DENND3 expression accurately classified LUAD and control samples. The results of single cell related analysis showed that two diagnostic biomarkers expressions were differed between the different tissue sources in M2-like macrophages. QRT-PCR demonstrated the mRNA expressions of CBFA2T3 and DENND3 were upregulated in lung adenocarcinoma cells A549 and H2122. Conclusion Our study identified CBFA2T3 and DENND3 as key genes associated with mRNAsi and M2 macrophages in LUAD and investigated the potential molecular mechanisms underlying this relationship.
