Project description:Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death. Lack of early detection technology for pancreatic cancer invariably leads to a typical clinical presentation of incurable disease at initial diagnosis. Oral fluid (saliva) meets the demand for non-invasive, accessible, and highly efficient diagnostic medium. The level of salivary analytes, such as mRNA and microflora, vary upon disease onset; thus possess valuable signatures for early detection and screening. In this study, we evaluated the performance and translational utilities of the salivary transcriptomic and microbial biomarkers for non-invasive detection of early pancreatic cancer. Two biomarker discovery technologies were used to profile transcriptome in saliva supernatant and microflora in saliva pellet. The Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array was used to discover altered gene expression in saliva supernatant. The Human Oral Microbe Identification Microarray (HOMIM) was used to investigate microflora shift in saliva pellet. Biomarkers selected from both studies were subjected to an independent clinical validation using a cohort of 30 early pancreatic cancer, 30 chronic pancreatitis and 30 healthy matched-control saliva samples. Two panels of salivary biomarkers, including eleven mRNA biomarkers and two microbial biomarkers were discovered and validated for pancreatic cancer detection. The logistic regression model with the combination of three mRNA biomarkers (ACRV1, DMXL2 and DPM1) yielded a ROC-plot AUC value of 0.974 (95% CI, 0.896 to 0.997; P < 0.0001) with 93.3% sensitivity and 90% specificity in distinguishing pancreatic cancer patients from healthy subjects. The logistic regression model with the combination of two bacterial biomarkers (Neisseria elongata and Streptococcus mitis) yielded a ROC-plot AUC value of 0.895 (95% CI, 0.784 to 0.961; P < 0.0001) with 96.4% sensitivity and 82.1% specificity in distinguishing pancreatic cancer patients from healthy subjects. Importantly, the logistic regression model with the combination of four biomarkers (mRNA biomarkers, ACRV1, DMXL2 and DPM1; bacterial biomarker, S. mitis) could differentiate pancreatic cancer patients from all non-cancer subjects (chronic pancreatitis and healthy control), yielding a ROC-plot AUC value of 0.949 (95% CI, 0.877 to 0.985; P < 0.0001) with 92.9% sensitivity and 85.5% specificity. This study comprehensively compared the salivary transcriptome and microflora between pancreatic cancer and control subjects. We have discovered and validated eleven mRNA biomarkers and two microbial biomarkers for early detection of pancreatic cancer in saliva. The logistic regression model with four salivary biomarkers can detect pancreatic cancer specifically without the complication of chronic pancreatitis. This is the first report demonstrating the value of multiplex salivary biomarkers for the non-invasive detection of a high impact systemic cancer.

It had a discovery and verification phase, followed by an independent validation phase. All patients with clinically diagnosed early or locally advanced pancreatic cancer, chronic pancreatitis and matched healthy control were recruited from the UCLA Medical Center. The controls were matched for gender, age, ethnicity and smoking history. We chose early and locally advanced pancreatic cancers because they were considered early stage diseases. All patients were recently diagnosed with primary disease, and had not received any prior treatment in the form of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, or alternative remedies. No subjects had a history of prior malignancy, immunodeficiency, autoimmune disorders, hepatitis, or HIV infection. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients who agreed to serve as saliva donors. Unstimulated saliva samples were collected and processed as previously described. The saliva bank of pancreatic disease at the UCLA Dental Research Institute has collected 283 saliva samples since 2006. Of these, 114 samples, from 42 pancreatic cancer patients, 30 chronic pancreatitis patients and 42 healthy control subjects, met the following eligibility criteria: the disease subjectsâ?? samples were obtained immediately after primary diagnosis from patients without evidence of metastasis; the saliva sample was free of blood (Table 1 in accompanying manuscript). Of the 114 samples, 12 pancreatic cancer samples and 12 healthy control samples were chosen for the discovery and verification phase. The transcriptomic approach profiled the saliva supernatant samples from 12 pancreatic cancer patients and 12 healthy control subjects using the Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array platform.

Project description:We carried out a genome-wide cfDNA methylation profiling study of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients by Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation coupled with high-throughput sequencing (MeDIP-seq). Compared with healthy individuals, 775 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) located in promoter regions were identified in PDAC patients with 761 hypermethylated and 14 hypomethylated regions; meanwhile, 761 DMRs in CpG islands (CGIs) were identified in PDAC patients with 734 hypermethylated and 27 hypomethylated regions (p-value < 35 0.0001). 143 hypermethylated DMRs were further selected which were located in promoter regions and completely overlapped with CGIs. A total of 8 probes from 8 genes were found to fairly distinguish PDAC patients from the healthy individuals, including TRIM73, FAM150A, EPB41L3, SIX3, MIR663, MAPT, LOC100128977 and LOC100130148.

Project description:Chronic inflammatory and immune dysregulation are critical drivers in the development and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Posttranslational modifications, such as glycosylation of Immunoglobulin G (IgG), modulates systemic inflammatory homeostasis. This study aims to profile plasma IgG glycopeptides (IgGPs) in COPD patients to uncover new insights into its pathogenesis and to identify novel biomarkers. Plasma IgG N-glycopeptides from 90 COPD patients, 45 clinical defined early COPD (CECOPD) patients and 90 healthy individuals were analyzed using an integrated platform that combines Fe3O4@PDA@DETA nanospheres enrichment with high-resolution mass spectrometry measurement. Correlations between IgG N-glycoforms and clinical parameters were assessed to explore underlying mechanisms of COPD progression. Disease-specific IgGPs were identified in both ECOPD and COPD cohorts. Notably, IgG glyco-pattern, rather than IgG levels, changed with disease progression. Early COPD patients showed decreased bisection and increased site-specific afucosylated galactosylation and fucosylation of IgG, indicating an anti-inflammatory state. In contrast, COPD patients gave increased inflammation, characterized by reduced galactosylation and sialylation. Interestingly, a subset of healthy controls displayed IgGPs patterns similar to early COPD, possibly reflecting the impact of substantial smoking exposure and associated immune responses. These findings suggest that plasma IgG glycosylation could serve as a potential biomarker for early COPD diagnosis, providing valuable insights into immune system changes during disease progression.

Project description:Minimally- invasive diagnostic biomarkers for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and distal cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are warranted to enhance early and accurate diagnosis. This study identified tumor tissue secreted proteins, the “secretome”, which was analysed for differential candidate diagnostic plasma proteins. Secretome of tumor and normal tissue was collected directly after resection of the primary tumor from 4 patients with PDAC and distal CCA. The tissue secretome was investigated by label-free LC-MSMS, and database searching identified a total of 5179 proteins. 696 proteins were differentially enriched in tumor secretome compared to normal tissue. Thrombospondin-2 (THBS2) emerged as most promising candidate diagnostic biomarker. Subsequent analysis of THBS2 in plasma samples of patients with PDAC and distal CCA by ELISA showed significantly higher abundance compared to healthy individuals (p<0.001) and resulted in an AUC of 0.844.

Project description:Elevated N-linked glycosylation of immunoglobulin G variable regions (IgG-VN-Glyc) is an emerging molecular phenotype associated with autoimmune disorders. To test the broader specificity of elevated IgG-VN-Glyc, we studied patients with distinct subtypes of myasthenia gravis (MG), a B cell-mediated autoimmune disease. Our experimental design included adaptive immune receptor repertoire sequencing to quantify and characterize N-glycosylation sites in the global B cell receptor repertoire, proteomics to examine glycosylation patterns of the circulating IgG, and production of human-derived recombinant autoantibodies, which were studied with mass spectrometry and antigen binding assays to confirm occupation of glycosylation sites and determine whether they alter binding. We found that the frequency of IgG-VN-Glyc motifs was increased in the B cell repertoire of MG patients when compared to healthy donors. Motifs were introduced by both biased V gene segment usage and somatic hypermutation. IgG-VN-Glyc could be observed in the circulating IgG in a subset of MG patients. Autoantigen binding, by patient-derived MG autoantigen-specific monoclonal antibodies with experimentally confirmed presence of IgG-VN-Glyc, was not altered by the glycosylation. Our findings extend prior work on patterns of variable region N-linked glycosylation in autoimmunity to MG subtypes. Although occupied IgG-VN-Glyc motifs are found on MG autoantigen-specific monoclonal antibodies, they are not required for binding to the autoantigen in this disease.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are produced and released by both healthy and malignant cells and bear markers indicative of ongoing biological processes. In the present study we utilized high resolution flow cytometry to detect EVs in the plasma of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and in the supernatants of PDAC and healthy control (HC) pancreatic organoid cultures. Using ultrafiltration and size exclusion chromatography, PDAC and HC pancreatic organoid EVs were isolated for mass spectrometry analysis. Proteomic and functional analysis showed a striking distinction in that EV proteins profiled in pancreatic cancer organoids were involved in vesicular transport and tumorigenesis while EV proteins in healthy organoids were involved in cellular homeostasis. Thus, the most abundant proteins identified in either case represented non-overlapping cellular programs. Tumor-promoting candidates LAMA5, SCDB1 and TENA were consistently upregulated in PDAC EVs. Validation of specific markers for PDAC EVs versus healthy pancreatic EVs will provide the biomarkers and enhanced sensitivity necessary to monitor early disease or disease progression, with or without treatment. Moreover, disease-associated changes in EV protein profiles provide an opportunity to investigate alterations in cellular programming with disease progression.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest cancers. Late presentation of disease at the time of diagnosis is one of the major reasons for dismal prognostic outcomes for PDAC patients. Currently, there is a lack of clinical biomarkers which can be used to diagnose PDAC patients at an early resectable stage. This study performed proteomic mass spectrometry to identify novel blood-based biomarkers for early diagnosis of PDAC.

Project description:There is an urgent need for early detection of Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Due to high stability and tight relationship with tumor genesis and development, miRNA has been considered as a type of potential biomarkers for PDAC detection and surveillance. However, up to now, the common miRNA panel for PDAC detection is still undetermined. In order to reveal the differential miRNA expression profiles between PDAC patients(P group), chronic pancreatitis patients(C group) and healthy persons(H group), plasma samples were collected from threegroups, further the genome wide small RNA expression profiling was performed.
