Combined urine proteomics and metabolomics analysis for the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic monitoring is paramount to clinical decision-making and the host biomarkers appears to play a significant role. The currently available diagnostic technology for TB detection is inadequate. In the present study, we aimed to identify biomarkers for diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) using urinary metabolomic and proteomic analysis.

Methods

In the study, urine from 40 PTB, 40 lung cancer (LCA), 40 community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients and 40 healthy controls (HC) was collected. Biomarker panels were selected based on random forest (RF) analysis.

Results

A total of 3,868 proteins and 1,272 annotated metabolic features were detected using pairwise comparisons. Using AUC ≥ 0.80 as a cutoff value, we picked up five protei
