Host Gene Expression in Nasal and Blood Samples for the Diagnosis of Viral Respiratory Infection

ABSTRACT: Assessment of host gene expression is an emerging tool for the diagnosis of human infections. We compared nasal and blood samples for evaluation of the host transcriptomic response in children with acute respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), symptomatic and asymptomatic picornavirus (PV) infection, and virus-negative asymptomatic controls (Ctrls). RNA was extracted from nasal and blood samples and analyzed by microarray. Despite generally lower quality of nasal RNA, the number of genes detected in each sample type was equivalent. Nasal gene expression signal derived mainly from epithelial cells but also included a leukocyte contribution that was higher in samples from symptomatic children. The number of genes with increased expression in virus-infected children was comparable in nasal and blood samples, while nasal samples also had large numbers of genes with decreased expression, including many genes associated with ciliary function and assembly. Compared to symptomatic children, those with asymptomatic PV had fewer genes with increased or decreased expression in both sample types. Genes with increased expression in comparisons of symptomatic children versus Ctrls included genes associated with components of innate immunity and apoptosis. Children with RSV but not PV also had increased expression of genes related to the cell cycle. Using nested leave-one-pair-out cross-validation and supervised principal components analysis, we defined sets of genes whose expression patterns accurately classified subjects, with high area-under-the-curve values in receiver operating characteristic analysis. Our results support use of nasal samples to augment pathogen-based tests to diagnose viral respiratory infection.

Project description:In this data set, we reported for the first time that huanglongbing disease (HLB) induces major changes in the expression of global genes in flavedo, vascular and juice vesicle tissues of citrus fruit. 68 Total samples were analyzed. cDNA generation, array analysis, and statistical tests were performed as a service at the Interdisciplinary Center for Biotechnology Research (ICBR) Microarray Core facility at the University of Florida (Gainesville, FL). The linear models were used for array analysis (Smyth GK et al. Bioinformatics, 2005, 2067-2075). The linear models were firstly used to assess differential expression, and then an empirical Bayes method was used to moderate the standard errors. 13 comparisons were performed for the study. The comparisons in Citrus sinensis cv. Hamlin included: SC vs. CC (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic vascular core); SJV vs. CJV (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic juice vesicle); SS vs. CS (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic seed); SP vs. CP (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic peel). The comparisons in Citrus sinensis cv. Valencia included: SP vs. HP (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic peel); ASP vs. HP (genes that respond to infection in asymptomatic peel); SP vs. ASP (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic peel compared to asymptomatic peel); SC vs. HC (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic vascular core); ASC vs. HC (genes that respond to infection in asymptomatic vascular core); SC vs. ASC (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic vascular core compared to asymptomatic vascular core); SJV vs. HJV (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic juice vesicle); ASJV vs. HJV (genes that respond to infection in asymptomatic juice vesicle); SJV vs. ASJV (genes that respond to infection in symptomatic juice vesicle compared to asymptomatic juice vesicle). ESTs with significant expression changes (P value <0.001; false discovery rate <0.01 with equal or higher than 2-fold changes in expression) were selected for further analysis.
