Project description:In this project, using discovery-based mass spectrometry approach and adopting data-dependent LC-MS/MS, we detected and identified modified peptides in complex clinical plasma samples and developed first-level biomarker verification strategy. Further, using liquid chromatography-multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (LC-MRM-MS) based targeted approach which virtually quantifies irreversible oxidation at any targeted cysteine, we quantified cysteine tri-oxidation in HSA in diabetes patients. Site-specific tri-oxidized HSA could be a potential biomarker of diabetes and provide directive of disease mechanism.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most widely spread metabolic diseases. Because of its asymptomatic onset and slow development, early diagnosis and adequate glycaemic control are the prerequisites for successful T2DM therapy. In this context, individual amino acid residues might be sensitive indicators of alterations in blood glycation levels. Moreover, due to a large variation in the half-life times of plasma proteins, a generalized biomarker, based on multiple glycation sites, might provide comprehensive control of the glycemic status across any desired time span. Therefore, here, we address the patterns of glycation sites in highly-abundant blood plasma proteins of T2DM patients and corresponding age- and gender-matched controls by comprehensive liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The analysis revealed 42 lysyl residues, significantly upregulated under hyperglycemic conditions. Thereby, for 32 glycation sites, biomarker behavior was demonstrated here for the first time. The differentially glycated lysines represented nine plasma proteins with half-lives from 2 to 21 days, giving access to an integrated biomarker based on multiple protein-specific Amadori peptides. The validation of this biomarker relied on linear discriminant analysis (LDA) with random sub-sampling of the training set and leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV), which resulted in an accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of 92%, 100%, and 85%, respectively.

Project description:BackgroundEarly diagnosis and treatment of type 2 diabetes can delay the onset of microvascular and macrovascular complications. Therefore, the identification of a novel biomarker for diagnosing diabetes is necessary. In the present study, the role of serum soluble leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin like domains 2 (sLRIG2) was investigated as a diagnostic biomarker of type 2 diabetes.MethodsA total of 240 subjects with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (n=80), prediabetes (n=80), or normal glucose tolerance (NGT; n=80) were included in this study. The fasting serum sLRIG2 level was measured using a quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Serum sLRIG2 levels were compared among the three groups, and the associations of serum sLRIG2 levels with clinical variables were investigated.ResultsSerum sLRIG2 levels were significantly higher in subjects with type 2 diabetes (16.7±8.0 ng/mL) than in subjects without diabetes (NGT group: 12.3±5.3 ng/mL, P<0.001; prediabetes group: 13.2±5.8 ng/mL, P=0.002). Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c: r=0.378, P<0.001) and blood glucose (fasting: r=0.421, P<0.001; 2-hour postprandial: r=0.433, P<0.001) correlated more strongly with sLRIG2 than any other clinical variables.ConclusionsThe serum sLRIG2 levels correlated with glucose parameters; thus, sLRIG2 might be a novel diagnostic biomarker for type 2 diabetes.

Project description:BackgroundNo currently available biomarkers or treatment regimens fully meet therapeutic needs of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Circular RNA (circRNA) is a recently identified class of stable noncoding RNA that have been documented as potential biomarkers for various diseases. Our objective was to identify and analyze plasma circRNAs altered in T1DM.MethodsWe used microarray to screen differentially expressed plasma circRNAs in patients with new onset T1DM (n=3) and age-/gender-matched healthy controls (n=3). Then, we selected six candidates with highest fold-change and validated them by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in independent human cohort samples (n=12). Bioinformatic tools were adopted to predict putative microRNAs (miRNAs) sponged by these validated circRNAs and their downstream messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were performed to gain further insights into T1DM pathogenesis.ResultsWe identified 68 differentially expressed circRNAs, with 61 and seven being up- and downregulated respectively. Four of the six selected candidates were successfully validated. Curations of their predicted interacting miRNAs revealed critical roles in inflammation and pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders. Functional relations were visualized by a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network. GO and KEGG analyses identified multiple inflammation-related processes that could be potentially associated with T1DM pathogenesis, including cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, inflammatory mediator regulation of transient receptor potential channels and leukocyte activation involved in immune response.ConclusionOur study report, for the first time, a profile of differentially expressed plasma circRNAs in new onset T1DM. Further in silico annotations and bioinformatics analyses supported future application of circRNAs as novel biomarkers of T1DM.

Project description:BackgroundExosomes carry various types of transcripts, such as messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and play an important role in mediating cell-to-cell communication, thus influencing multiple physiological and pathological processes. However, the role of exosomal mRNAs in T1DM is largely unknown. Here, we aimed to identify the plasma-derived exosomal mRNA expression profiles in T1DM and to explore their potential biological functions in T1DM.Materials and methodsPlasma-derived exosomes were isolated from 10 patients with T1DM and 10 age- and sex-matched control subjects by size exclusion chromatography methods. Transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and western blot analysis confirmed the presence of exosomes. The exosomal mRNAs were analyzed using the Illumina HiSeq platform. Six differentially expressed mRNAs (DEMs) were randomly selected to determine the expression level by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in a larger cohort (T1DM subjects N=40; control subjects N=40). The biological functions of DEMs were predicted by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses. Protein-protein interaction networks were constructed to explore the potential associations among DEMs.ResultsIn total, 112 DEMs were identified in T1DM, among which 66 mRNAs were upregulated and 46 mRNAs were downregulated. Four of six candidate exosomal mRNAs were successfully validated by qRT-PCR. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that these mRNAs were most significantly involved in positive regulation by host viral transcription (GO enrichment analysis) and oxidative phosphorylation (KEGG pathway analysis).ConclusionsOur study reported the plasma-derived exosomal mRNA expression profiles of T1DM for the first time. The identified DEMs might be associated with the pathogenesis of T1DM, and some DEMs have the potential to serve as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for T1DM.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction and leading to many micro- and macrovascular complications. In this study we analyzed the circulating miRNA expression profiles in plasma samples from 44 patients with T2D and 22 healthy individuals using next generation sequencing and detected 229 differentially expressed miRNAs. An increased level of miR-5588-5p, miR-125b-2-3p, miR-1284, and a reduced level of miR-496 in T2D patients was verified. We also compared the expression landscapes in the same group of patients depending on body mass index and identified differential expression of miR-144-3p and miR-99a-5p in obese individuals. Identification and functional analysis of putative target genes was performed for miR-5588-5p, miR-125b-2-3p, miR-1284, and miR-496, showing chromatin modifying enzymes and apoptotic genes being among the significantly enriched pathways.

Project description:1-Deoxysphingolipids (1-deoxySLs) are atypical sphingolipids, which are formed in a side reaction during sphingolipid de-novo synthesis. Recently, we demonstrated that 1-deoxySLs are biomarkers for the prediction of T2DM in obese, non-diabetic patients. Here we investigated the relevance of 1-deoxySLs as long-term predictive biomarkers for the incidence of T2DM in an asymptomatic population. Here, we analyzed the plasma sphingoid base profile in a nested group of non-diabetic individuals (N = 605) selected from a population-based study including 5 year follow-up data (CoLaus study). 1-DeoxySLs at baseline were significantly elevated in individuals who developed T2DM during the follow-up (p<0.001), together with increased glucose (p<5.11E-14), triglycerides (p<0.001) and HOMA-IR indices (p<0.001). 1-Deoxy-sphinganine (1-deoxySA) and 1-deoxy-sphingosine (1-deoxySO) were predictive for T2DM, even after adjusting for fasting glucose levels in the binary regression analyses. The predictive value of the combined markers 1-deoxySA+glucose were superior to glucose alone in normal-weight subjects (p<0.001) but decreased substantially with increasing BMI. Instead, plasma adiponectin and waist-to-hip ratio appeared to be better risk predictors for obese individuals (BMI>30kg/m2). In conclusion, elevated plasma 1-deoxySL levels are strong and independent risk predictors of future T2DM, especially for non-obese individuals in the general population.

Project description:ObjectiveTo examine the association of bradykinin and related peptides with the development of diabetic nephropathy lesions in 243 participants with type 1 diabetes (T1D) from the Renin-Angiotensin System Study who, at baseline, were normoalbuminuric, normotensive and had normal or increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR).DesignPlasma concentrations of bradykinin and related peptides were measured at baseline by quantitative mass spectrometry. All participants were randomly assigned at baseline to receive placebo, enalapril or losartan during the 5 years between kidney biopsies. Kidney morphometric data were available from kidney biopsies at baseline and after 5 years. Relationships of peptides with changes in morphometric variables were assessed using multiple linear regression after adjustment for age, sex, diabetes duration, HbA1c, mean arterial pressure, treatment assignment and, for longitudinal analyses, baseline structure.ResultsBaseline median albumin excretion rate of study participants was 5.0 μg/min, and mean GFR was 128 mL/min/1.73 m2. After multivariable adjustment, higher plasma concentration of bradykinin (1-8) was associated with greater glomerular volume (partial r = 0.191, P = 0.019) and total filtration surface area (partial r = 0.211, P = 0.010), and higher bradykinin (1-7) and hyp3-bradykinin (1-7) were associated with lower cortical interstitial fractional volume (partial r = -0.189, P = 0.011; partial r = -0.164, P = 0.027 respectively). In longitudinal analyses, higher bradykinin was associated with preservation of surface density of the peripheral glomerular basement membrane (partial r = 0.162, P = 0.013), and for participants randomized to losartan, higher hyp3-bradykinin (1-8) was associated with more limited increase in cortical interstitial fractional volume (partial r = -0.291, P = 0.033).ConclusionsHigher plasma bradykinin and related peptide concentrations measured before clinical onset of diabetic nephropathy in persons with T1D were associated with preservation of glomerular structures, suggesting that elevations of these kinin concentrations may reflect adaptive responses to early renal structural changes in diabetic nephropathy.

Project description:IntroductionThe significant maternal and neonatal outcomes of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) make it a major public health concern. Mothers with GDM are at greater risk of pregnancy complications and their offspring are at higher risk of diabetes and obesity. Currently, GDM is diagnosed with glucose load methods which are time-consuming and inconvenient to administer more than once during pregnancy; for this reason, there is a recognised need for a more accurate and simpler test for GDM. Previous studies indicate that plasma-glycated CD59 (pGCD59) is a novel biomarker for GDM. We present here the protocol of a prospective cohort study designed to (1) determine the accuracy of pGCD59 as an early, first trimester predictor of GDM and gestational impaired glucose tolerance and (2) assess the associations between pGCD59 levels and adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes.Methods and analysisWe will obtain discarded plasma samples from pregnant women at two time points: first prenatal visit (usually <14 weeks gestation) and gestational weeks 24-28. A study-specific medical record abstraction tool will be used to obtain relevant maternal and neonatal clinical data from the EPIC clinical database. The prevalence of GDM will be determined using standard of care glucose load test results. We will determine the sensitivity and specificity of pGCD59 to predict the diagnosis of GDM and gestational impaired glucose tolerance, as well as the associations between levels of pGCD59 and the prevalence of maternal and neonatal outcomes.Ethics and disseminationThis study has been approved by the Mass General Brigham Institutional Review Board (protocol 2011P002254). The results of this study will be presented at international meetings and disseminated in peer-reviewed journals.
