Recurrence in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer

Project description:Although non muscle-invasive bladder cancer can be treated successfully by surgical resection, there is a high rate of recurrence, which frequently develops into an invasive form of cancer. Due to the lack of marker molecules to predict recurrence, it is currently recommended that after resection each patient is screened via cystoscopy at least twice a year. This results in a psychic burden to the patient and substantial economic costs to the health care system. Using antibody microarrays targeting 724 different cancer-related proteins, we studied protein profiles of patients with and without recurrence. The analysis revealed 255 proteins of differential abundance. Most are involved in the regulation and execution of apoptosis and cell proliferation. For prognosis, a signature of 20 proteins was determined that predicts bladder cancer recurrence with 100% sensitivity and 80% specificity. As a measure of overall accuracy, the area under the curve (AUC) value was found to be 90%. This is well within a clinically relevant window of quality and should support decision making about the stringency of surveillance or even different treatment options.

A monoclonal anti-HMGB1 antibody attenuates neurodegeneration in an experimental animal model of glaucoma

Project description:Neuroinflammation is a crucial process for the loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGC), a major characteristic of glaucoma. High expression of high mobility group box protein 1 (HMGB1) plays a detrimental role in inflammatory processes and is elevated in the retinas of glaucoma patients. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of intravitreal injection of an anti-HMGB1 monoclonal antibody (anti-HMGB1 Ab) in an experimental animal model of glaucoma. Two groups of Spraque Dawley rats received episcleral vein occlusion to chronically elevate intraocular pressure (IOP): (1) IgG group, intravitreal injection of an unspecific IgG as a control, n=5, (2) HMGB1 group, intravitreal injection of an anti-HMGB1 Ab, n=6. IOP, retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT), and the retinal flash response was monitored longitudinally. Post-mortem examinations included immunohistochemistry, microarray, and mass spectrometric analysis. RNFLT was significantly increased in the HMGB1 group compared to the IgG group (p<0.001). RGC density showed improved neuronal cell survival in the retina in HMGB1 compared to the IgG group (p<0.01). Mass spectrometric proteomic analysis of retinal tissue showed increased abundance of RNA metabolism-associated heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), such as hnRNP U, D, and H2, in animals injected with the anti-HMGB1 Ab, indicating that application of the antibody may cause increased gene expression. Microarray analysis showed significantly decreased expression of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8, p<0.05) and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF, p<0.01) in the HMGB1 group. Thus, these data suggest that intravitreal injection of anti-HMGB1 Ab reduced HMGB1-dependent inflammatory signaling and mediated RGC neuroprotection.

Longitudinal landscape of urinary EV proteome reveals stable protein expression patterns within and between individuals

Project description:Urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs) are an attractive source for the detection of disease biomarkers. Mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomics is increasingly used for urinary EV proteome profiling and protein biomarker discovery. However, little is known about the consistency and stability of urinary EV proteins within individuals over time and between different individuals. In this study we profiled the urinary EV proteome of 8 healthy individuals over 6 months at 9 timepoints (total 72 samples) using DIA-MS. We identified a total of 1802 proteins with high correlation amongst all samples. While a minor fraction (10%) of the total urinary EV proteome was shown to play a role in determining personal expression patterns, most of the urinary EV proteins was found to be stable with >90% of the proteins detected in more than 1 person at all timepoints. The variability of urinary EV proteome between different individuals was shown to be significantly higher than personal variation as a result of a small subset (<20%) of proteins. The core interaction network of proteins identified in all individuals revealed EV proteins involved in signaling and localization and sub-clusters enriched for glycolytic activity, protein synthesis, and immune function. Gender-specific expression patterns were detected in the urinary EV proteome, mostly related to hormonal and reproduction pathways. In summary, our findings indicate that the urinary EV proteome is stable in longitudinal samples of healthy subjects, underscoring its potential as a reliable source for protein biomarkers.

Recombinant human lactoferrin activates human dendritic cells via Toll-like receptors-2 and -4

Project description:Talactoferrin alfa (TLF) is a unique recombinant version of human lactoferrin, an important immunomodulatory protein present in exocrine secretions and in the secondary granules of neutrophils. Talactoferrin has demonstrated anti-cancer activity in preclinical studies and in Phase III clinical trials in patients with Renal Cell Cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. We have shown that TLF induces the maturation of human DCs derived from monocytes, suggesting that the linkage of the innate and adaptive immunity through DC maturation is a key immune function mediated by TLF. In this study we used genome-wide expression analysis to explore the mechanisms by which TLF leads to the functional maturation of DC. We show that GMP level recombinant TLF activates human DCs in a Toll-like receptor (TLR) -2 and -4 dependent manner. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were obtained from buffy coats of healthy donors. CD14+ cells were isolated from fresh PBMCs by positive immunoselection with magnetic beads. Immature dendritic cells (i-DC) from four donors were generated using granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and IL-4. On day 6, cells were harvested in order to have iDC or mDC (conventionally matured DC) by addition of Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) -alfa and IL-1beta or TLF-DC (Talactoferrin matured DC) adding Food and Drug Administration-approved, GMP level recombinant TLF generated in eukaryotic cells. After 24 hour culture, cells were harvested and analyzed with Illumina arrays.

HNF4A-binding sites in HepG2 hepatoblastoma cells treated with TGF-beta

Project description:Specific regulation of target genes by transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) in a given cellular context is determined in part by transcription factors and cofactors that interact with the Smad complex. In the present study, we determined Smad2 and Smad3 (Smad2/3) binding regions in the promoters of known genes in HepG2 hepatoblastoma cells, and compared them to those in HaCaT epidermal keratinocytes to elucidate the mechanisms of cell type- and context-dependent regulation of transcription induced by TGF-β. Our results show that 81% of the Smad2/3 binding regions in HepG2 cells were not shared with those found in HaCaT cells. Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α) is expressed in HepG2 cells, but not in HaCaT cells, and the HNF4α binding motif was identified as an enriched motif in the HepG2-specific Smad2/3 binding regions. ChIP-sequencing analysis of HNF4A binding regions under TGF-β stimulation revealed that 32.5% of the Smad2/3 binding regions overlapped HNF4A bindings. MIXL1 was identified as a new combinatorial target of HNF4A and Smad2/3, and both the HNF4A protein and its binding motif were required for the induction of MIXL1 by TGF-β in HepG2 cells. These findings generalize the importance of binding of HNF4A on Smad2/3 binding genomic regions for HepG2-specific regulation of transcription by TGF-β, and suggest that certain transcription factors expressed in a cell-type-specific manner play important roles in the transcription regulated by the TGF-β-Smad signaling pathway. HepG2 cells were treated with TGF-beta for 1.5 h or left untreated. anti-HNF4A ChIP-seq was performed. One lane was used for each sample.

Proteomics and Metabolomics based analysis of Metabolic changes in a swine model of Pulmonary Hypertension

Project description:Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare type of Pulmonary Hypertension (PH), which impacts the flow and pressure within the lung tissue and vasculature resulting in endothelial dysfunction and metabolic changes. We used a pig model in order to mimic PH post PVS using pulmonary vein banding (PVB) of the lower lobes for 12 weeks to investigate the alteration of pressure and flow which provides an impetus for development of PH. In order to develop site-specific therapies, our current study aimed to employ proteomics and metabolomics on both the upper and lower lobes of the pig lung to identify compartment-specific metabolic alterations.
