Metabolomes of mitochondrial diseases and inclusion body myositis patients: treatment targets and biomarkers.

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial disorders (MDs) are inherited multi-organ diseases with variable phenotypes. Inclusion body myositis (IBM), a sporadic inflammatory muscle disease, also shows mitochondrial dysfunction. We investigated whether primary and secondary MDs modify metabolism to reveal pathogenic pathways and biomarkers. We investigated metabolomes of 25 mitochondrial myopathy or ataxias patients, 16 unaffected carriers, six IBM and 15 non-mitochondrial neuromuscular disease (NMD) patients and 30 matched controls. MD and IBM metabolomes clustered separately from controls and NMDs. MDs and IBM showed transsulfuration pathway changes; creatine and niacinamide depletion marked NMDs, IBM and infantile-onset spinocerebellar ataxia (IOSCA). Low blood and muscle arginine was specific for patients with m.3243A>G mutation. A four-metabolite blood multi-biomarker (sorbitol, alanine, myoinositol, cystathionine) distinguished primary MDs from others (76% sensitivity, 95% specificity). Our omics approach identified pathways currently used to treat NMDs and mitochondrial stroke-like episodes and proposes nicotinamide riboside in MDs and IBM, and creatine in IOSCA and IBM as novel treatment targets. The disease-specific metabolic fingerprints are valuable "multi-biomarkers" for diagnosis and promising tools for follow-up of disease progression and treatment effect.

Project description:Objective: Sporadic Inclusion Body Myositis (sIBM) is an inflammatory myopathy (IIM) without a specific diagnostic biomarker until autoantibodies to the cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase 1A (NT5c1A/Mup44) were reported. The objectives of our study were to determine the sensitivity and specificity of anti-NT5c1A for sIBM, demonstrate demographic, clinical and serological predictors for anti-NT5c1A positivity and determine if anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) staining on HEp-2 cells is a reliable screening method for anti-NT5c1A. Methods: Sera from sIBM patients and controls were stored at -80°C until required for analysis. IgG antibodies to NT5c1A were detected by an addressable laser bead immunoassay (ALBIA) using a full-length human recombinant protein. Autoantibodies to other autoimmune myopathy antigens (Jo-1, OJ, TIF1y, PL-12, SAE, EJ, MDA5, PL7, SRP, NXP2, MI-2) were detected by line immunoassay (LIA), chemiluminescence immunoassay (CIA) or enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and ANA detected by IIF on HEp-2 substrate. Demographic, clinical and serological data were obtained by chart review. Results: Forty-three patients with sIBM, 537 disease control patients with other autoimmune, degenerative and neuromuscular diseases, and 78 healthy controls were included. 48.8% (21/43) of sIBM patients were positive for anti-NT5c1A. The overall sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of anti-NT5c1A for sIBM were 0.49, 0.92, 0.29, and 0.96, respectively. Compared to sIBM, the frequency of anti-NT5c1A was lower in both the disease control group (8.8%, OR 0.10 [95%CI: 0.05-0.20], p < 0.0001) and in the apparently healthy control group (5.1%, OR 0.06 [95%CI: 0.02-0.18], p < 0.0001). In the univariable analysis, sIBM patients with more severe muscle weakness were more likely to be anti-NT5c1A positive (OR 4.10 [95% CI: 1.17, 14.33], p = 0.027), although this was not statistically significant (adjusted OR 4.30 [95% CI: 0.89, 20.76], p = 0.069) in the multivariable analysis. The ANA of sIBM sera did not demonstrate a consistent IIF pattern associated with anti-NT5c1A. Conclusions: Anti-NT5c1A has moderate sensitivity and high specificity for sIBM using ALBIA. The presence of anti-NT5c1A antibodies may be associated with muscle weakness. Anti-NT5c1A antibodies were not associated with a specific IIF staining pattern, hence screening using HEp-2 substrate is unlikely to be a useful predictor for presence of these autoantibodies.

Project description:Muscle pathology in inclusion body myositis (IBM) typically includes inflammatory cell infiltration, muscle fibers with rimmed vacuoles and cytochrome c oxidase (COX)-deficient fibers. Previous studies have revealed clonal expansion of large mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions in the COX-deficient muscle fibers. Technical limitations have prevented complete investigations of the mtDNA deletions and other mtDNA variants. Detailed characterization by deep sequencing of mtDNA in muscle samples from 21 IBM patients and 10 age-matched controls was performed after whole genome sequencing with a mean depth of mtDNA coverage of 46,000x. Multiple large mtDNA deletions and duplications were identified in all IBM and control muscle samples. In general, the IBM muscles demonstrated a larger number of deletions and duplications with a mean heteroplasmy level of 10% (range 1%-35%) compared to controls (1%, range 0.2%-3%). There was also a small increase in the number of somatic single nucleotide variants in IBM muscle. More than 200 rearrangements were recurrent in at least two or more IBM muscles while 26 were found in both IBM and control muscles. The deletions and duplications, with a high recurrence rate, were mainly observed in three mtDNA regions, m.534-4429, m.6330-13993, and m.8636-16072, where some were flanked by repetitive sequences. The mtDNA copy number in IBM muscle was reduced to 42% of controls. Immunohistochemical and western blot analyses of IBM muscle revealed combined complex I and complex IV deficiency affecting the COX-deficient fibers. In conclusion, deep sequencing and quantitation of mtDNA variants revealed that IBM muscles had markedly increased levels of large deletions and duplications, and there were also indications of increased somatic single nucleotide variants and reduced mtDNA copy numbers compared to age-matched controls. The distribution and type of variants were similar in IBM muscle and controls indicating an accelerated aging process in IBM muscle, possibly associated with chronic inflammation.
