Project description:We conducted prospective clinical studies to validate the importance of CD4+ T cells in 13 diseases from the following ICD-10-CM chapters: Neoplasms (breast cancer, chronic lymphocytic leukemia); endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (type I diabetes, obesity); diseases of the circulatory system (atherosclerosis); diseases of the respiratory system (acute tonsillitis, influenza, seasonal allergic rhinitis, asthma); diseases of the digestive system (Crohn’s disease [CD], ulcerative colitis [UC]); and diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue (atopic eczema, psoriatic diseases). Study participants were recruited by clinical specialists based on diagnostic criteria defined by organizations representing each specialist’s discipline. Age and gender matched healthy controls (n = 127 and 39, respectively) were recruited in the Southeast region of Sweden from outpatient clinics at the University Hospital, Linköping; Ryhov County Hospital, Jönköping, a primary health care center in Jönköping; and a medical specialist unit for children in Värnamo. Study participants represented both urban and rural populations with an age range of 8–94 years. Patients with type I diabetes and obesity had an age range of 8–18 years. 12 patients had more than one diagnosis.

Project description:BackgroundGenomic medicine has paved the way for identifying biomarkers and therapeutically actionable targets for complex diseases, but is complicated by the involvement of thousands of variably expressed genes across multiple cell types. Single-cell RNA-sequencing study (scRNA-seq) allows the characterization of such complex changes in whole organs.MethodsThe study is based on applying network tools to organize and analyze scRNA-seq data from a mouse model of arthritis and human rheumatoid arthritis, in order to find diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Diagnostic validation studies were performed using expression profiling data and potential protein biomarkers from prospective clinical studies of 13 diseases. A candidate drug was examined by a treatment study of a mouse model of arthritis, using phenotypic, immunohistochemical, and cellular analyses as read-outs.ResultsWe performed the first systematic analysis of pathways, potential biomarkers, and drug targets in scRNA-seq data from a complex disease, starting with inflamed joints and lymph nodes from a mouse model of arthritis. We found the involvement of hundreds of pathways, biomarkers, and drug targets that differed greatly between cell types. Analyses of scRNA-seq and GWAS data from human rheumatoid arthritis (RA) supported a similar dispersion of pathogenic mechanisms in different cell types. Thus, systems-level approaches to prioritize biomarkers and drugs are needed. Here, we present a prioritization strategy that is based on constructing network models of disease-associated cell types and interactions using scRNA-seq data from our mouse model of arthritis, as well as human RA, which we term multicellular disease models (MCDMs). We find that the network centrality of MCDM cell types correlates with the enrichment of genes harboring genetic variants associated with RA and thus could potentially be used to prioritize cell types and genes for diagnostics and therapeutics. We validated this hypothesis in a large-scale study of patients with 13 different autoimmune, allergic, infectious, malignant, endocrine, metabolic, and cardiovascular diseases, as well as a therapeutic study of the mouse arthritis model.ConclusionsOverall, our results support that our strategy has the potential to help prioritize diagnostic and therapeutic targets in human disease.

Project description:The IBD-Character cohort (Edinburgh, Oslo, Örebro, Linköping, Zaragoza, Maastricht) included patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD: Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis) recruited at diagnosis and non-IBD controls. Paired-end RNA sequencing was used for whole blood expression profiling. Raw and normalized counts tables are provided.

Project description:In this project, one NSCLC cohorts were analyzed by Data Independent Acquisition (DIA-MS). A cohort of early stage NSCLC samples (207) with the aim to demonstrate utility of MS for subtyping and treatment prediction in a clinical setting. Further, six identified NSCLC proteome subtypes were investigated in relation to cancer driver pathways and immune phenotypes based on the generated MS-data.

Project description:Sepsis remains a diagnostic challenge with no gold-standard test. Urine provides a readily available, non-invasive biofluid with significant diagnostic potential. Urinary gene expression has been previously used for diagnosis and prognosis of urological malignancies and transplant allograft rejections, but remains unutilized for sepsis diagnosis. In this study, the authors use urinary gene expression profiles to both diagnose sepsis and characterize its pathophysiology. By using differential expression augmented with machine learning ensembles, the authors identify a collection of cellular mRNA from 239 genes in patient urine which show exceptional power in classifying septic patients from those with chronic systemic disease in both internal and independent external validation cohorts. Functional analysis indexes the disrupted biological pathways in early sepsis and additionally reveals key molecular networks driving its pathogenesis. This study serves a pioneering step towards expanding the clinical potential of urinary molecular profiles for application to systemic diseases.

Project description:Introduction: Sepsis is a complex immunological response to infection characterized by early hyperinflammation followed by severe and protracted immunosuppression, suggesting that a multi-marker approach has the greatest clinical utility for early detection, within a clinical environment focused on SIRS differentiation. Pre-clinical research using an equine sepsis model identified a panel of gene expression biomarkers that define the early aberrant immune activation. Thus, the primary objective was to apply these gene expression biomarkers to distinguish patients with sepsis from those who had undergone major open surgery and had clinical outcomes consistent with systemic inflammation due to physical trauma and wound healing. Methods: This was a multi-centre, prospective clinical trial conducted across 4 tertiary critical care settings in Australia. Sepsis patients were recruited if they met the 1992 Consensus Statement criteria and had clinical evidence of systemic infection based on microbiology diagnoses (n=27). Participants in the post-surgical (PS) group were recruited pre-operatively and blood samples collected within 24 hours following surgery (n=38). Healthy controls (HC) included hospital staff with no known concurrent illnesses (n=20). Each participant had minimally 5ml of PAXgene blood collected for leucocyte RNA isolation and gene expression analyses. Affymetrix array and multiplex tandem (MT)-PCR studies were conducted to evaluate transcriptional profiles in circulating white blood cells applying a set of 42 molecular markers that had been identified a priori. A LogitBoost algorithm was used to create a machine learning diagnostic rule to predict sepsis outcomes. Results: Based on preliminary microarray analyses comparing HC and sepsis groups. A panel of 42-gene expression markers were identified that represented key innate and adaptive immune function, cell cycling, WBC differentiation, extracellular remodelling and immune modulation pathways. Comparisons against GEO data confirmed the definitive separation of the sepsis cohort. Quantitative PCR results suggest the capacity for this test to differentiate severe systemic inflammation from HC is 92%. AUC ROC curve findings demonstrated sepsis prediction within a mixed inflammatory population, was between 86 - 92%. Conclusions: This novel molecular biomarker test has a clinically relevant sensitivity and specificity profile, and has the capacity for early detection of sepsis via the monitoring of critical care patients.
