Identification of Serological Biomarkers for Early Diagnosis of Lung Cancer Using a Protein Array-Based Approach.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer (LC) remains the leading cause of mortality from malignant tumors worldwide. Currently, a lack of serological biomarkers for early LC diagnosis is a major roadblock for early intervention and prevention of LC. To undertake this challenge, we employed a two-phase strategy to discover and validate a biomarker panel using a protein array-based approach. In Phase I, we obtained serological autoimmune profiles of 80 LC patients and 20 healthy subjects on HuProt arrays, and identified 170 candidate proteins significantly associated with LC. In Phase II, we constructed a LC focused array with the 170 proteins, and profiled a large cohort, comprised of 352 LC patients, 93 healthy individuals, and 101 patients with lung benign lesions (LBL). The comparison of autoimmune profiles between the early stage LC and the combined group of healthy and LBL allowed us to identify and validate a biomarker panel of p53, HRas, and ETHE1 for diagnosis of early stage LC with 50% sensitivity at >90% specificity. Finally, the performance of this biomarker panel was confirmed in ELISA tests. In summary, this study represents one of the most comprehensive proteome-wide surveys with one of the largest (i.e. 1,101 unique samples) and most diverse (i.e. nine disease groups) cohorts, resulting in a biomarker panel with good performance.

Project description:BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most serious type of heart disease. Clinically, there is an urgent need to discover diagnostic biomarkers for the early diagnosis of AMI.MethodsSerum proteomic profiles in AMI patients, healthy controls, and stable angina pectoris (SAP) patients were explored and compared by iTRAQ-2DLC-MS/MS. The clinical data of AMI patients were also analyzed. Differentially expressed proteins were validated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and diagnostic models were constructed.ResultsA total of 39 differentially expressed proteins were identified in AMI patients. The results showed that the serum levels of apolipoprotein E (APOE) in AMI patients were notably higher than those in the healthy controls (P=0.0172). The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AATC) in AMI patients were markedly higher than those in the healthy controls and SAP patients (P<0.0001 and P<0.0001, respectively). The serum levels of fibronectin (FINC) in SAP patients were significantly higher than those in the healthy controls and AMI patients (P=0.0043 and P=0.0044, respectively). Clinical data analysis showed a considerable difference in blood glucose levels, troponin I (TNI), and creatine kinase (CK) in AMI patients compared with SAP patients and healthy controls. A diagnostic model consisting of AATC and clinical indicators [lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and CK] was established to distinguish between AMI patients and healthy controls, with an area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.993 sensitivity and specificity of 96.2% and 96.3%, respectively. A diagnostic model consisting of AATC and CK was established to distinguish between AMI patients and SAP patients, with an AUC value of 0.975 and a sensitivity and specificity of 85.2% and 79.30%, respectively.ConclusionsIn this study, differentially expressed proteins in AMI patients were combined with clinical indexes, LDH and CK, and two diagnostic models were constructed. This study may provide meaningful data for the early diagnosis of AMI.

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the three leading causes for cancer mortality. CRC kills over 600,000 people annually worldwide. The most common cause of death from CRC is the metastasis to distant organs. However, biomarkers for CRC metastasis remain ill-defined. We compared primary and metastatic CRC cell lines for their angiogenesis-protein profiles and intracellular signaling profiles to identify novel biomarkers for CRC metastasis. To this end, we used primary and metastatic CRC cell lines as a model system and normal human colon cell line as a control. The angiogenesis profiles two isogenic CRC cell lines, SW480 and SW620, and HT-29 and T84 revealed that VEGF was upregulated in both SW620 and T84 whereas coagulation factor III, IGFBP-3, DPP IV, PDGF AA/AB, endothelin I and CXCL16 were downregulated specifically in metastatic cell lines. Furthermore, we found that TIMP-1, amphiregulin, endostatin, angiogenin were upregulated in SW620 whereas downregulated in T84. Angiogenin was downregulated in T84 and GM-CSF was also downregulated in SW620. To induce CRC cell metastasis, we treated cells with pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6. Upon IL-6 treatment, epithelial-mesenchymal transition was induced in CRC cells. When DLD-1 and HT-29 cells were treated with IL-6; Akt, STAT3, AMPKα and Bad phosphorylation levels were increased. Interestingly, SW620 showed the same signal activation pattern with IL-6 treatment of HT-29 and DLD-1. Our data suggest that Akt, STAT3, AMPKα and Bad activation can be biomarkers for metastatic colorectal cancer. IL-6 treatment specifically reduced phosphorylation levels of EGFR, HER2 receptor, Insulin R and IGF-1R in receptor tyrosine kinase array study with HT-29. Taken together, we have identified novel biomarkers for metastatic CRC through the angiogenesis-antibody array and intracellular signaling array studies. Present study suggests that those novel biomarkers can be used as CRC prognosis biomarkers, and as potential targets for the metastatic CRC therapy.
