Project description:ABSTRACT Background. Acute Kawasaki disease (KD) is difficult to distinguish from other acute rash/fever illnesses, in part because the etiologic agent(s) and pathophysiology remain poorly characterized. As a result, diagnosis and critical therapies may be delayed. Methods. We used DNA microarrays to identify possible diagnostic features of KD. We compared gene expression patterns in the blood of 23 children with acute KD and 18 age-matched febrile children with three illnesses that resemble KD. Results. Genes associated with platelet and neutrophil activation were expressed at higher levels in KD patients than in patients with acute adenovirus infections or systemic adverse drug reactions but not in patients with scarlet fever; genes associated with B cell activation were also expressed at higher levels in KD patients than in controls. A striking absence of interferon-stimulated gene expression in the KD patients was confirmed in an independent cohort of KD subjects. We successfully predicted the diagnosis in 21 of 23 KD patients and 7 of 8 adenovirus patients using a set of 38 gene transcripts. Conclusions. These findings provide insight into the molecular features that distinguish KD from other febrile illnesses, and support the feasibility of developing novel diagnostic reagents for KD based on the host response. A disease state experiment design type is where the state of some disease such as infection, pathology, syndrome, etc is studied.

Project description:The diagnosis of Kawasaki disease (KD) is often difficult to distinguish from adenovirus (HAdV) and Group A streptococcal disease (GAS). We sought to: 1) to define the KD transcriptional signature that can aid in the diagnosis of complete and incomplete KD in children; 2) to identify specific biomarkers that objectively discriminate between KD and other mimicking conditions, including HAdV and 3) to test the prognostic utility of GEP to determine response to IVIG therapy and development of coronary artery lesions (CAL). Methods: Blood RNA samples were analyzed from 76 pediatric patients with complete KD, 13 with incomplete KD, 19 patients with HAdV, 17 patients with GAS disease, and age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC). We used class comparisons (MW p< 0.01, Benjamini-Hochberg, and 1.25 fold change filter), class prediction, modular analysis and MDTH analyses to define the specificity of the KD profiles and identify markers of severity. Results: Statistical group comparisons identified 7,899 genes differentially expressed in 39 complete KD patients versus HC (KD biosignature). This signature was validated in another 37 patients with complete KD and in 13 patients with incomplete KD. Modular analysis in children with complete KD demonstrated overexpression of inflammation, neutrophils, myeloid cell, coagulation cascade, and cell cycle genes. The KNN class prediction algorithm identified 25-classifier genes that differentiated children with KD vs HAdV infection in two independent cohorts of patients with 96% (95% CI [80%-99%]) sensitivity and 95% [74%-99%] specificity. MDTH scores in KD patients significantly correlated with the baseline c-reactive protein (R=0.29, p=0.008) and was four fold higher than in children with HAdV (p<0.01). In addition, KD patients that remained febrile 36 hours after treatment with IVIG (non-responders) demonstrated higher baseline, pre-treatment MDTH values compared with responders [12,290 vs. 5,572 respectively; p=0.009]. Conclusion: Transcriptional signatures can be used as a tool to discriminate between KD and HAdV infection, and may also provide prognostic information. 113 samples, no replicates, 9 HAdV, 57 cKD, 12 FUO, 13 GAS, 3 GAS/SF, 5 inKD, 14 healthy control

Project description:Kawasaki disease (KD) is the most common cause of acquired heart disease in children in developed countries. Based on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), we profiled peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with acute KD before and after intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy and from healthy controls. We identified the dynamics of cell abundance, gene expression patterns and biological processes underlying the immune dysregulation of each cell compartment. The single-cell landscape of both innate and adaptive immune responses provides new insights into pathogenesis and therapy of KD.

Project description:Transcriptional profile in Kawasaki patients at acute and convalescent phase with different clinical outcomes were investigated. To gain further insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying KD, we investigated the acute and convalescent whole blood transcriptional profiles of 171 KD subjects and compared them with the transcriptional profiles of pediatric patients with confirmed bacterial or viral infection, and with healthy control children. We also investigated the transcript abundance in patients with different intravenous immunoglobulin treatment responses and different coronary artery outcomes.

Project description:Genes that were consistently up-regulated in KD patients compared with healthy controls, and that showed over 2.0 or 3.0-fold differences by the comparison between the two groups in the mean expression levels were selected. Microarray analysis for PBMNCs of acute-phase KD patients was performed using an AceGene Human Oligo Chip 30K 1 Chip Version (Hitachi Software Engineering) that contains approximately 30,000 genes. In the study presented here, 3 cases of Kawasaki disease at acute phase,and 5 healthy controls,were used. The data with low signal-to-noise ratios (S/N<3) were not used for further analysis.

Project description:Background: Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute self-limited vasculitis and the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children in developed countries. No etiologic agent(s) has been identified, and the processes that mediate formation of coronary artery aneurysms and abatement of fever following treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) remain poorly understood. Results: In an initial survey, we used DNA microarrays to examine patterns of gene expression in peripheral whole blood from 20 children with KD; each was sampled during the acute, subacute, and convalescent phases of the illness. Acute KD was characterized by increased relative abundance of gene transcripts associated with innate immune and proinflammatory responses and decreased abundance of transcripts associated with natural killer cells and CD8+ lymphocytes. There was significant temporal variation in transcript levels during the acute disease phase and stabilization thereafter. We confirmed these temporal patterns in a second cohort of 64 patients, and identified additional inter-individual differences in transcript abundance. Notably, higher levels of transcripts of the gene for carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) were associated with an increased percentage of unsegmented neutrophils, fewer days of illness, higher levels of C-reactive protein, and subsequent non-response to IVIG; this last association was confirmed by quantitative reverse transcription PCR in a third cohort of 33 patients, and was independent of day of illness. Conclusions: Acute KD is characterized by dynamic and variable gene-expression programs that highlight the importance of neutrophil activation state and apoptosis in KD pathogenesis. Our findings also support the feasibility of extracting biomarkers associated with clinical prognosis from gene-expression profiles of individuals with systemic inflammatory illnesses. Whole blood (PAXgene tubes) was obtained from 64 Kawasaki disease patients prior to treatment. RNA was amplified using the MessageAmp kit (Ambion), and reverse transcribed. Each sample was labelled with Cy5, and hybridized to a Lymphochip cDNA array along with amplified human reference RNA labelled with Cy3(Universal Human Reference RNA, Stratagene). Analysis was restricted to those array elements (LUIDs) with signal intensity/background of at least 2.5 in either channel for at least 80% of the samples, and a regression correlation of 0.6. Patterns of gene expression were correlated with clinical parameters, including subsequent response to treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). A disease state experiment design type is where the state of some disease such as infection, pathology, syndrome, etc is studied. Phenotype: Patient responded (R) or not (NR) to IVIG therapy. Some patients were not classified because they were treated more than 10 days after onset of fever Keywords: disease_state_design
