Metabolomic approaches to dissect dysregulated metabolism in the progression of pre-diabetes to T2DM

ABSTRACT:

Most of pre-diabetes were eventually progress to diabetes, thereby profiling of prediabetic metabolic disorders may be an effective targeted preventive measure. We aimed to elucidate internal motivation of the progression of pre-diabetes to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) from a metabolic perspective. Four sets of serum samples (20 subjects per group) according to fasting blood glucose (FBG) concentration were collected for metabolomic analysis. An integrative approach of metabolome and WGCNA was employed to explore candidate metabolites. Compared with healthy group (FBG < 5.6 mmol/L), 113 metabolites were differentially expressed in the early stage of pre-diabetes (5.6 mmol/L ≤ FBG < 6.1 mmol/L), 237 in the late stage of pre-diabetes (6.1 mmol/L ≤ FBG < 7.0 mmol/L) and 245 in T2DM group (FBG ≥ 7.0 mmol/L). A total of 27 DEMs were identified shared in all comparisons. Among them, L-norleucine was down-regulated whereas ethionamide, glutathione oxidized, 5-Methylcytosine and alpha-D-Glucopyranoside beta-D-fructofuranosyl were increased with the rising of FBG. Surprisingly, 15 (11 LPCs, L-norleucine, glutathione oxidized, arachidonic acid and 5-Oxoproline) of the 27 DEMs were ferroptosis-associated metabolites. WGCNA clustered all metabolites into 8 modules and pathway enrichment analysis of DEMs showed a significant annotation to insulin resistance-related pathway. Integrated analysis of DEMs, ROC and WGCNA modules determined 12 potential biomarkers for pre-diabetes and T2DM, including L-norleucine, 8 of which were L-arginine or its metabolites. L-norleucine and L-arginine could be served as biomarkers for pre-diabetes. The inventory of metabolites provides by our serum metabolome offer insights into T2DM physiology metabolism.

Project description:Purpose: The goals of this study are to delineate genes when comparing long-term (LT) and short-term (ST) PDAC survivors, and to exploit the merits of extensive integrative individual- and group-based transcriptome profiling. Method: Using a discovery cohort of 19 PDAC patients, we first performed differential gene expression (DGE) analysis comparing LT to ST PDAC groups. Second, we adopted unsupervised systems biology approaches to obtain meaningful gene modules showing associations to clinical features. Third, we created individual-level gene expression perturbation profiles and identified key regulators across the perturbed profiles of LT patients at the pathway and motif level. Furthermore, we applied two network context gene prioritization approaches for the depiction of PDAC specific regulatory genes. In particular, we used the random walk-based DADA method to develop PDAC disease modules considering the use of PDAC seed genes (via prior biological knowledge). As an alternative, we used NetICS to prioritize PDAC survival associated genes, by integrating information regarding group-based and individual-specific perturbed genes. Result: DGE analysis resulted in differences in the expression of genes involved in immune responses, cell cycle and metabolic pathways. Validation of a selection of DGEs in the molecular lab suggested a role of REG4 and TSPAN8 in PDAC survival. Detailed inspection of individual-specific omics changes across LT survivors revealed biological signatures associated with focal adhesion and extracellular matrix (ECM) receptors, commonly perturbed in at least 2 out of 9 LT survivors, implying a potential role in molecular-level heterogeneity of LT PDAC survivors. Network centric approaches such as NetICS (integrating group-based and individual-specific perturbed genes) and DADA (degree-aware disease gene prioritizing), identified various known oncogenes such as CUL1, SCF62, EGF, FOSL1, MMP9, and TGFB1. In addition, we identified TAC1, KCNH7, IRS4, DKK4, further warranting detailed follow-up investigations. Conclusion:Our proposed analytic workflow, combining clinical and omics data, and individual-level and group-level transcriptome profiling, highlighted transcriptome marks of PDAC long-term survival heterogeneity. The identified genes open up avenues towards better understanding the mechanisms underlying PDAC survival extension.

Project description:Background: Low temperature (LT) often occurs at the seedling stage in the early rice-growing season, especially for direct seeded early-season indica rice, and using flooding irrigation can mitigate LT damage in rice seedlings. The molecular mechanism by which flooding mitigates the damage induced by LT stress has not been fully elucidated. Thus, LT stress at 8C, LT accompanied by flooding (LTF) and CK (control) treatments were established for three days to determine the transcriptomic, proteomic and physiological response in direct seeded rice seedlings at the seedling stage. Results: LT damaged chloroplasts, and thylakoid lamellae, and increased osmiophilic bodies and starch grains compared to CK, but LTF alleviated the damage to chloroplast structure caused by LT. The physiological characteristics of treated plants showed that compared with LT, LTF significantly increased the contents of rubisco, chlorophyll, PEPCK, ATP and GA3 but significantly decreased soluble protein, MDA and ABA contents. 4D-label-free quantitative proteomic profiling showed that photosynthesis-responsive proteins, such as phytochrome, as well as chlorophyll and the tricarboxylic acid cycle were significantly downregulated in LT/CK and LTF/CK comparison groups. However, compared with LT, phytochrome, chlorophyllide oxygenase activity and the glucan branching enzyme in LTF were significantly upregulated in rice leaves. Transcriptomic and proteomic studies identified 72818 transcripts and 5639 proteins, and 4983 genes that were identified at both the transcriptome and proteome levels. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were significantly enriched in glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and metabolic pathways. Conclusion: Through transcriptomic, proteomic and physiological analyses, we determined that a variety of metabolic pathway changes were induced by LT and LTF. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses demonstrated that DEGs and DEPs were associated with photosynthesis pathways, antioxidant enzymes and energy metabolism pathway-related proteins. Our study provided new insights for efforts to reduce the damage to direct seeded rice caused by low-temperature stress and provided a breeding target for low temperature flooding-resistant cultivars. Further analysis of translational regulation and metabolites may help to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which flooding mitigates low-temperature stress in direct seeded early indica rice at the seedling stage.

Project description:Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) results from immune mediated destruction of pancreatic beta cells. However, clinical and immunologic phenotypes of T1DM are variable. Several auto-antibodies including GADA, IA-2A, and ZnT8A, were identified in T1DM, but the prevalence of these auto-antibodies varied for a broad spectrum of T1DM. Here, we systemically profiled auto-antibodies from serum samples of 16 T1DM, 16 type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients, and 27 healthy controls with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) using protein microarrays containing 9,480 proteins. Among 9,480 different proteins on the array, we identified novel auto-antibody candidates (EEF1A1-AAb and UBE2L3-AAb) by M-test coupled with PLS-DA. These auto-antibodies were highly present in T1DM than controls and detected in 40% of T1DM without GADA. Furthermore, these auto-antibodies might help to differentiate subtype of T1DM when combined with GADA. These novel auto-antibodies provide new diagnostic information of T1DM, as well as new insights into the pathogenesis of T1DM. Auto-antibodies from serum samples were profiled using a high-density, fluorescence-based protein microarray containing duplicate spots of 9,480 human proteins derived from the Ultimate ORF collection The cohort of patients and controls consisted of 16 T1DM, 16 T2DM patients, and 27 healthy controls with NGT. This cohort was used to screen candidate auto-antibodies using protein microarrays (ProtoArray platform version 5.0, Invitrogen Corp., Carlsbad, CA). Serum samples were drawn from T1DM patients who have 1) fasting C-peptide level <0.3 nmol/L or serum C-peptide <0.6 nmol/L after glucagon loading, 2) initiation of insulin treatment within six months after diagnosis, and 3) duration of diabetes M-bM-^IM-$12 months. Mean age of T1DM in the first cohort was 42 M-BM-1 16 years. The control serum samples were obtained from T2DM patients who were treated only with oral anti-diabetic drug at least 5 years and from NGTs who had no history of diabetes, no first-degree relatives with diabetes, a fasting plasma glucose concentration of <6.1 mmol/l, and a HbA1c value of <5.8%.
