Screening and identification of five serum proteins as novel potential biomarkers for cured pulmonary tuberculosis.

ABSTRACT: Rapid and efficient methods for the determination of cured tuberculosis (TB) are lacking. A total of 85 differentially expressed serum proteins were identified by iTRAQ labeling coupled with two-dimensional liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (2D LC-MS/MS) analysis (fold change >1.50 or <0.60, P < 0.05). We validated albumin (ALB), Rho GDP-dissociation inhibitor 2 (ARHGDIB), complement 3 (C3), ficolin-2 (FCN2), and apolipoprotein (a) (LPA) using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. Significantly increased ALB and LPA levels (P = 0.036 and P = 0.012, respectively) and significantly reduced ARHGDIB, C3, and FCN2 levels (P < 0.001, P = 0.035, and P = 0.018, respectively) were observed in cured TB patients compared with untreated TB patients. In addition, changes in ALB and FCN2 levels occurred after 2 months of treatment (P < 0.001 and P = 0.030, respectively). We established a cured TB model with 87.10% sensitivity, 79.49% specificity, and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.876. The results indicated that ALB, ARHGDIB, C3, FCN2, and LPA levels might serve as potential biomarkers for cured TB. Our study provides experimental data for establishing objective indicators of cured TB and also proposes potential markers for evaluating the efficacy of anti-TB drugs.

Project description:Noninvasive and simple indicators for diagnosing latent tuberculosis (TB) infection (LTBI) and tracking progression from latent infection to active TB infection are still desperately needed. The aim of this study was to screen and identify possible biomarkers for diagnosing LTBI and monitoring the progression from latent infection to active TB infection, as well as to investigate the underlying processes and functions. To assess changes in metabolite composition associated with active tuberculosis infection in humans, whole blood supernatants were collected from patients with LTBI, drug-susceptible TB patients, drug-resistant TB patients, and healthy controls. The metabolites in all serum samples were extracted by oscillatory, deproteinization, and then detected by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry/MS analysis. Normalization by Pareto-scaling method, the difference analysis was carried out by Metaboanalyst 4.0 software, and 1-way analysis of variance analysis among groups showed that P-value < 0.05 was regarded as a different metabolite. To clarify the dynamic changes and functions of differential metabolites with disease progression, and explore its significance and mechanism as a marker by further cluster analysis, functional enrichment analysis, and relative content change analysis of differential metabolites. 65 metabolites were substantially different in four groups. Differential metabolites such as Inosine and Prostaglandin E1 may be important blood indicators for diagnosing mycobacterium tuberculosis latent infection, which were all tightly connected to amino acid metabolism, Biosynthesis of various secondary metabolites, Nucleotide metabolism, Endocrine system, Immune system, Lipid metabolism, and Nervous system. This study screened and identified Inosine, 16, 16-dimethyl-6-keto Prostaglandin E1, Theophylline, and Cotinine as potential serum biomarkers for diagnosing latent TB infection, and Cotinine as potential biomarkers for monitoring disease progression from healthy population to LTBI and then to active TB including drug-resistant TB infection and sensitive TB infection. Furthermore, this research provides a preliminary experimental basis to further investigate the development of metabolomics-based diagnosis of LTBI and monitoring the progress from latent infection to active TB infection.
