Raman spectroscopy and group and basis-restricted non negative matrix factorisation identifies radiation induced metabolic changes in human cancer cells.

ABSTRACT: This work combines single cell Raman spectroscopy (RS) with group and basis restricted non-negative matrix factorisation (GBR-NMF) to identify individual biochemical changes associated with radiation exposure in three human cancer cell lines. The cell lines analysed were derived from lung (H460), breast (MCF7) and prostate (LNCaP) tissue and are known to display varying degrees of radio sensitivity due to the inherent properties of each cell type. The GBR-NMF approach involves the deconstruction of Raman spectra into component biochemical bases using a library of Raman spectra of known biochemicals present in the cells. Subsequently, scores are obtained on each of these bases which can be directly correlated with the contribution of each chemical to the overall Raman spectrum. We validated GBR-NMF through the correlation of GBR-NMF-derived glycogen scores with scores that were previously observed using principal component analysis (PCA). Phosphatidylcholine, glucose, arginine and asparagine showed a distinct differential score pattern between radio-resistant and radio-sensitive cell types. In summary, the GBR-NMF approach allows for the monitoring of individual biochemical radiation-response dynamics previously unattainable with more traditional PCA-based approaches.

Project description:BackgroundCentiloid was introduced to harmonise β-Amyloid (Aβ) PET quantification across different tracers, scanners and analysis techniques. Unfortunately, Centiloid still suffers from some quantification disparities in longitudinal analysis when normalising data from different tracers or scanners. In this work, we aim to reduce this variability using a different analysis technique applied to the existing calibration data.MethodAll PET images from the Centiloid calibration dataset, along with 3762 PET images from the AIBL study were analysed using the recommended SPM pipeline. The PET images were SUVR normalised using the whole cerebellum. All SUVR normalised PiB images from the calibration dataset were decomposed using non-negative matrix factorisation (NMF). The NMF coefficients related to the first component were strongly correlated with global SUVR and were subsequently used as a surrogate for Aβ retention. For each tracer of the calibration dataset, the components of the NMF were computed in a way such that the coefficients of the first component would match those of the corresponding PiB. Given the strong correlations between the SUVR and the NMF coefficients on the calibration dataset, all PET images from AIBL were subsequently decomposed using the computed NMF, and their coefficients transformed into Centiloids.ResultsUsing the AIBL data, the correlation between the standard Centiloid and the novel NMF-based Centiloid was high in each tracer. The NMF-based Centiloids showed a reduction of outliers, and improved longitudinal consistency. Furthermore, it removed the effects of switching tracers from the longitudinal variance of the Centiloid measure, when assessed using a linear mixed effects model.ConclusionWe here propose a novel image driven method to perform the Centiloid quantification. The methods is highly correlated with standard Centiloids while improving the longitudinal reliability when switching tracers. Implementation of this method across multiple studies may lend to more robust and comparable data for future research.

Project description:Radiation therapy is currently utilised in the treatment of approximately 50% of cancer patients. A move towards patient tailored radiation therapy would help to improve the treatment outcome for patients as the inter-patient and intra-patient heterogeneity of cancer leads to large differences in treatment responses. In radiation therapy, a typical treatment outcome is cell cycle arrest which leads to cell cycle synchronisation. As treatment is typically given over multiple fractions it is important to understand how variation in the cell cycle can affect treatment response. Raman spectroscopy has previously been assessed as a method for monitoring radiation response in cancer cells and has shown promise in detecting the subtle biochemical changes following radiation exposure. This study evaluated Raman spectroscopy as a potential tool for monitoring cellular response to radiation in synchronised versus unsynchronised UVW human glioma cells in vitro. Specifically, it was hypothesised that the UVW cells would demonstrate a greater radiation resistance if the cell cycle phase of the cells was synchronised to the G1/S boundary prior to radiation exposure. Here we evaluated whether Raman spectroscopy, combined with cell cycle analysis and DNA damage and repair analysis (γ-H2AX assay), could discriminate the subtle cellular changes associated with radiation response. Raman spectroscopy combined with principal component analysis (PCA) was able to show the changes in radiation response over 24 hours following radiation exposure. Spectral changes were assigned to variations in protein, specifically changes in protein signals from amides as well as changes in lipid expression. A different response was observed between cells synchronised in the cell cycle and unsynchronised cells. After 24 hours following irradiation, the unsynchronised cells showed greater spectral changes compared to the synchronised cells demonstrating that the cell cycle plays an important role in the radiation resistance or sensitivity of the UVW cells, and that radiation resistance could be induced by controlling the cell cycle. One of the main aims of cancer treatment is to stop the proliferation of cells by controlling or halting progression through the cell cycle, thereby highlighting the importance of controlling the cell cycle when studying the effects of cancer treatments such as radiation therapy. Raman spectroscopy has been shown to be a useful tool for evaluating the changes in radiation response when the cell cycle phase is controlled and therefore highlighting its potential for assessing radiation response and resistance.
