Cathepsin F and Fibulin-1 as novel diagnostic biomarkers for Brain Metastasis of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

ABSTRACT: Background: There is a paucity of non-invasive markers for early detection of brain metastasis (BM) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Secretory proteomic approach based on quantitative tandem mass tag is believed to offer bright prospects for screening potential serum biomarkers for diseases. Methods: We used the secretory proteomics to identify up-regulated proteins in the highly brain metastatic cell line compared to the parental lung cancer cell line. Enzyme linked immunoassay and immunohistochemistry were performed on non-small cell lung cancer patients with brain metastasis and control samples from each cohort to verify the expression levels of candidate proteins. A logistic regression model was used to develop a biomarker panel composed of Cathepsin F (CTSF) and Fibulin-1 (FBLN1), and then an independent validation data set was used for verification. The diagnostic accuracy was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Changes in serum CTSF levels of patients were tracked to monitor the effect of treatment, and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed to assess their prognostic relevance. Results: CTSF and FBLN1 levels were specifically upregulated in sera and tissues of patients with NSCLC BM. Importantly, the combined diagnostic performance of CTSF and FBLN1 was superior to their individual diagnostic performance (sensitivity and specificity). CTSF serum changes were found to reflect the therapeutic response of patients with NSCLC BM and the trends of resistance and progression were detected earlier than the MRI changes. Elevated expression of CTSF in NSCLC BM tissues was associated with poor PFS. Moreover, CTSF tissue expression was found to be an independent prognostic factor. Conclusions: CTSF and FBLN1 are potential novel and specific serum markers for early diagnosis of BM in patients with NSCLC. CTSF can also be used as a biomarker for monitoring therapeutic efficacy and prognostic assessment.

<h4>Background</h4>The lack of non-invasive methods for detection of early micro-metastasis is a major cause of the poor prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) brain metastasis (BM) patients. Herein, we aimed to identify circulating biomarkers based on proteomics for the early diagnosis and monitoring of patients with NSCLC BM.<h4>Methods</h4>Upregulated proteins were detected by secretory proteomics in the animal-derived high brain metastatic lung cancer cell line. A well-designed stud ...[more]

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a very common solid tumor where only small advances in the reduction of relapse-free survival and overall survival have been accomplished. The issue is particularly critical for stage I patients where there are not available biomarkers, in the absence of detectable nodal or other metastatic involvement, that might indicate which high-risk patients should receive the beneficially proved adjuvant chemotherapy. We aimed to find DNA methylation markers with prognostic value that could be helpful in this regard and complement the conventional staging. A DNA methylation microarray that analyzes 450,000 CpG sites in the human genome was used to study primary tumoral DNA obtained from a multicenter cohort of 490 patients with NSCLC, corresponding to 339 adenocarcinomas, 133 squamous carcinomas and 18 large cell carcinomas, in addition to 25 normal lung epithelium samples. The obtained prognostic DNA methylation markers were validated by the development of a single methylation-pyrosequencing assay in an independent cohort of 143 patients with stage I NSCLC. The unsupervised clustering of the studied primary NSCLC distinguished two branches with distinct clinical outcomes. Those CpG sites that were the best predictors of recurrence in stage I NSCLC patients were further confirmed in the described independent cohort. Both the global DNA methylation classifier and the highly-ranked aberrantly methylated single genes improved prognostic accuracy beyond standard stagings. DNA was quantified by Quant-iT PicoGreen dsDNA Reagent (Invitrogen) and the integrity was analyzed in a 1.3% agarose gel. Bisulfite conversion of 600 ng of each sample was performed according to the manufacturer's recommendations for the Illumina Infinium Assay. Effective bisulfite conversion was checked for three controls that were converted simultaneously with the samples. 4 ul of bisulfite-converted DNA were used to hybridize on an Infinium HumanMethylation 450 BeadChip, following the Illumina Infinium HD Methylation protocol. Chip analysis was performed using the Illumina HiScan SQ fluorescent scanner. The intensities of the images were extracted using GenomeStudio (2011.2) Methylation module (1.8.5) software. The methylation score of each CpG is represented as a beta value. This dataset includes 444 patient samples.
