Identification of diagnostic biomarkers used in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes mellitus: A systematic review of quantitative studies. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024. [PMID: 38637978 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024]
Abstract
AIMS To perform a systematic review of studies that sought to identify diagnostic biomarkers for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and diabetes mellitus (DM), which could be used in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where there is a lack of diagnostic equipment, treatments and training. MATERIALS AND METHODS Papers were sourced from six databases: the British Nursing Index, Google Scholar, PubMed, Sage, Science Direct and Scopus. Articles published between January 2002 and January 2023 were systematically reviewed by three reviewers and appropriate search terms and inclusion/exclusion criteria were applied. RESULTS A total of 18 studies were yielded, as well as 234 diagnostic biomarkers (74 for CVD and 160 for DM). Primary biomarkers for the diagnosis of CVDs included growth differentiation factor 15 and neurogenic locus notch homologue protein 1 (Notch1). For the diagnosis of DM, alpha-2-macroglobulin, C-peptides, isoleucine, glucose, tyrosine, linoleic acid and valine were frequently reported across the included studies. Advanced analytical techniques, such as liquid chromatography mass spectrometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and vibrational spectroscopy, were also repeatedly reported in the included studies and were utilized in combination with traditional and alternative matrices such as fingernails, hair and saliva. CONCLUSIONS While advanced analytical techniques are expensive, laboratories in LMICs should carry out a cost-benefit analysis of their use. Alternatively, laboratories may want to explore emerging techniques such as infrared, Fourier transform-infrared and near-infrared spectroscopy, which allow sensitive noninvasive analysis.

Zhang H, Wang C, Sun H, Zhou T, Ma C, Han X, Zhang T, Xia J. Glutamine supplementation alleviated aortic atherosclerosis in mice model and in vitro. Proteomics 2024; 24:e2300179. [PMID: 37679095 DOI: 10.1002/pmic.202300179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed to clarify the role of glutamine in atherosclerosis and its participating mechanism. Forty C57BL/6J mice were divided into wild control (wild Con), ApoE- /- control (ApoE- /- Con), glutamine + ApoE- /- control (Glut + ApoE- /- Con), ApoE- /- high fat diet (ApoE- /- HFD), and glutamine + ApoE- /- HFD (Glut + ApoE- /- HFD) groups. The degree of atherosclerosis, western blotting, and multiomics were detected at 18 weeks. An in vitro study was also performed. Glutamine treatment significantly decreased the degree of aortic atherosclerosis (p = 0.03). O-GlcNAcylation (O-GlcNAc), IL-1β, IL-1α, and pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) in the ApoE- /- HFD group were significantly higher than those in the ApoE- /- Con group (p < 0.05). These differences were attenuated by glutamine treatment (p < 0.05), and aggravated by O-GlcNA transferase (OGT) overexpression in the in vitro study (p < 0.05). Multiomics showed that the ApoE- /- HFD group had higher levels of oxidative stress regulatory molecules (guanine deaminase [GUAD], xanthine dehydrogenase [XDH]), proinflammatory regulatory molecules (myristic acid and myristoleic acid), and stress granules regulatory molecules (caprin-1 and deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase [DERA]) (p < 0.05). These differences were attenuated by glutamine treatment (p < 0.05). We conclude that glutamine supplementation might alleviate atherosclerosis through downregulation of O-GlcNAc, glycolysis, oxidative stress, and proinflammatory pathway.

A comprehensive proteomic profiling of urinary exosomes and the identification of early non-invasive biomarker in patients with coronary artery disease. J Proteomics 2024; 293:105059. [PMID: 38151158 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2023.105059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/29/2023]
Abstract
Urinary small extracellular vesicles or exosomes (uEVs) source could be an emerging trove of biomarkers in coronary artery disease (CAD). It is a chronic inflammatory disease having a long asymptomatic phase of fatty-fibrous development in arteries leading to angina, myocardial infarction, and death. Our study was aimed at identifying differential protein expression profiling of uEVs in CAD. We collected urine samples of CAD patients (n = 41) age 18-65 years and gender matched healthy controls (n = 41). We isolated uEVs using differential ultracentrifugation. Further, uEV samples were characterized by western blotting exosome markers (Flotillin, TSG, CD63, and CD9), nano tracking analysis, and transmission and scanning electron microscopy. A total of 508 proteins were identified by iTRAQ-based mass spectrometry. We observed protein expression levels of AZGP1, SEMG1/2, ORM1, IGL, SERPINA5, HSPG2, prosaposin, gelsolin, and CD59 were upregulated, and UMOD, KNG1, AMBP, prothrombin, and TF were downregulated. Protein-protein interactions, gene ontology and pathway analysis were performed to functionally annotate identified uEVs proteins. A novel uEVs differential protein signature is shown. On validating UMOD protein by ELISA in two clinically different CAD, stable-CAD patients had lower levels than healthy controls whereas recent myocardial infarction patients had lowest. Our findings suggest UMOD importance as early diagnostic biomarker. SIGNIFICANCE: Coronary artery disease is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by gradual deposition of cholesterol and fat along with other proteins to develop plaque inside arteries. This further leads to blockage of artery, heart attack and death. There are no identifiable early biomarkers to diagnose this. For the first time, we have identified the differentially expressed proteins isolated from non-invasive uEV of CAD patients compared to healthy controls by using MS Orbitrap and iTRAQ labelling of peptides. We have identified decreased levels of UMOD protein in CAD. These findings have been confirmed by ELISA. Furthermore, the levels of UMOD were observed as more highly decreased in recent myocardial infarction CAD patients, indicating the importance of this protein as an early diagnostic biomarker. Conclusively, our study represents a non-invasive urinary EVs trove of differentially expressed proteins in CAD. This will form a groundwork for understanding the pathophysiology of CAD and will help in future translational research utilizing uEVs.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Recently, accumulating evidence has revealed hepatic mediators, termed as liver-derived secretory factors (LDSFs), play an important role in regulating CVDs such as atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, thrombosis, myocardial infarction, heart failure, metabolic cardiomyopathy, arterial hypertension, and pulmonary hypertension. LDSFs presented here consisted of microbial metabolite, extracellular vesicles, proteins, and microRNA, they are primarily or exclusively synthesized and released by the liver, and have been shown to exert pleiotropic actions on cardiovascular system. LDSFs mainly target vascular endothelial cell, vascular smooth muscle cells, cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, macrophages and platelets, and further modulate endothelial nitric oxide synthase/nitric oxide, endothelial function, energy metabolism, inflammation, oxidative stress, and dystrophic calcification. Although some LDSFs are known to be detrimental/beneficial, controversial findings were also reported for many. Therefore, more studies are required to further explore the causal relationships between LDSFs and CVDs and uncover the exact mechanisms, which is expected to extend our understanding of the crosstalk between the liver and cardiovascular system and identify potential therapeutic targets. Furthermore, in the case of patients with liver disease, awareness should be given to the implications of these abnormalities in the cardiovascular system. These studies also underline the importance of early recognition and intervention of liver abnormalities in the practice of cardiovascular care, and a multidisciplinary approach combining hepatologists and cardiologists would be more preferable for such patients.

Abstract
Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is a multi-organ disease characterized by the complex interaction between heart and kidney during acute or chronic injury. The pathogenesis of CRS involves metabolic, hemodynamic, neurohormonal, and inflammatory mechanisms, and atherosclerotic degeneration. In the process of better understanding the bi-directional pathophysiological aspects of CRS, the need to find precise and easy-to-use markers has also evolved. Based on the new pathophysiological standpoints and an overall vision of the CRS, the literature on renal, cardiac, metabolic, oxidative, and vascular circulating biomarkers was evaluated. Though the effectiveness of different extensively applied biomarkers remains controversial, evidence for several indicators, particularly when combined, has increased in recent years. From new aspects of classic biomarkers to microRNAs, this review aimed at a 360-degree analysis of the pathways that balance the kidney and the heart physiologies. In this delicate system, different markers and their combination can shed light on the diagnosis, risk, and prognosis of CRS.

Abstract
Aims: Current cardiovascular (CV) risk prediction algorithms are able to quantify the individual risk of CV disease. However, CV risk in young adults is underestimated due to the high dependency of age in biomarker-based algorithms. Because oxidative stress is associated with CV disease, we sought to examine CV risk stratification in young adults based on oxidative stress to approach the discovery of new markers for early detection of pathology. Results: Young adults were stratified into (i) healthy controls, (ii) subjects with CV risk factors, and (iii) patients with a reported CV event. Plasma samples were analyzed using FASILOX, a novel approach to interrogate the dynamic thiol redox proteome. We also analyzed irreversible oxidation by targeted searches using the Uniprot database. Irreversible oxidation of cysteine (Cys) residues was greater in patients with reported CV events than in healthy subjects. These results also indicate that oxidation is progressive. Moreover, we found that glutathione reductase and glutaredoxin 1 proteins are differentially expressed between groups and are proteins involved in antioxidant response, which is in line with the impaired redox homeostasis in CV disease. Innovation: This study, for the first time, describes the oxidative stress (reversible and irreversible Cys oxidation) implication in human plasma according to CV risk stratification. Conclusion: The identification of redox targets and the quantification of protein and oxidative changes might help to better understand the role of oxidative stress in CV disease, and aid stratification for CV events beyond traditional prognostic and diagnostic markers.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of atherosclerosis and premature mortality, mainly due to cardiovascular events. However, well-known risk factors, which promote “classical” atherosclerosis are alone insufficient to explain the high prevalence of atherosclerosis-related to CKD (CKD-A). The complexity of the molecular mechanisms underlying the acceleration of CKD-A is still to be defied. To obtain a holistic picture of these changes, comprehensive proteomic approaches have been developed including global protein profiling followed by functional bioinformatics analyses of dysregulated pathways. Furthermore, proteomics surveys in combination with other “omics” techniques, i.e., transcriptomics and metabolomics as well as physiological assays provide a solid ground for interpretation of observed phenomena in the context of disease pathology. This review discusses the comprehensive application of various “omics” approaches, with emphasis on proteomics, to tackle the molecular mechanisms underlying CKD-A progression. We summarize here the recent findings derived from global proteomic approaches and underline the potential of utilizing integrative systems biology, to gain a deeper insight into the pathogenesis of CKD-A and other disorders.

Association of SDF1 and MMP12 with Atherosclerosis and Inflammation: Clinical and Experimental Study. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11050414. [PMID: 34062730 PMCID: PMC8147178 DOI: 10.3390/life11050414] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2021] [Revised: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 04/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis is the main etiology of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), associated to systemic inflammation. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are related to atherosclerosis progression through the SDF1/CXCR4 axis promoting macrophages recruitment within the vascular wall. The goal was to assess new circulatory inflammatory markers in relation to atherosclerosis. METHODS Measurement of SDF1, MMP12 and CRP in blood samples of 298 prospective patients with cardiovascular risk. To explore atherosclerosis progression, CXCR4/SDF1 axis and MMP12 expression were determined by RT-qPCR and by immunohistochemistry in the aorta of accelerated and delayed atherosclerosis mice models (Apoe-/- and Apoe-/-Mmp10-/-). RESULTS SDF1, MMP12 and CRP were elevated in patients with clinical atherosclerosis, but after controlling by confounding factors, only SDF1 and CRP remained increased. Having high levels of both biomarkers showed 2.8-fold increased risk of presenting clinical atherosclerosis (p = 0.022). Patients with elevated SDF1, MMP12 and CRP showed increased risk of death in follow-up (HR = 3.2, 95%CI: 1.5-7.0, p = 0.004). Gene and protein expression of CXCR4 and MMP12 were increased in aortas from Apoe-/- mice. CONCLUSIONS The combination of high circulating SDF1, MMP12 and CRP identified patients with particular inflammatory cardiovascular risk and increased mortality. SDF1/CXCR4 axis and MMP12 involvement in atherosclerosis development suggests that they could be possible atherosclerotic targets.

Urinary Growth Differentiation Factor-15 (GDF15) levels as a biomarker of adverse outcomes and biopsy findings in chronic kidney disease. J Nephrol 2021; 34:1819-1832. [PMID: 33847920 DOI: 10.1007/s40620-021-01020-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Growth Differentiation Factor-15 (GDF15) is a member of the TGF-β superfamily. Increased serum GDF15 has been associated with increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. However, no prior studies have addressed the significance of urinary GDF15 in adult CKD. METHODS We measured serum and urinary GDF15 in a prospective cohort of 84 patients who underwent kidney biopsy and assessed their association with outcomes (survival, kidney replacement therapy) during a follow-up of 29 ± 17 months. RESULTS There was a statistically significant correlation between serum and urine GDF15 values. However, while serum GDF15 values increased with decreasing glomerular filtration rate, urinary GDF15 did not. Immunohistochemistry located kidney GDF15 expression mainly in tubular cells, and kidney GDF15 staining correlated with urinary GDF15 values. Urine GDF15 was significantly higher in patients with a histologic diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy than in diabetic patients without diabetic nephropathy. This was not the case for serum GDF15. Both serum and urine GDF15 were negatively associated with patient survival in multivariate models. However, when both urine and serum GDF15 were present in the model, lower urine GDF15 predicted patient survival [B coefficient (SEM) - 0.395 (0.182) p 0.03], and higher urine GDF15 predicted a composite of mortality or kidney replacement therapy [0.191 (0.06) p 0.002], while serum GDF15 was not predictive. Decision tree analysis yielded similar results. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating curve (ROC) for urine GDF15 as a predictor of mortality was 0.95 (95% CI 0.89-1.00, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, urinary GDF15 is associated with kidney histology patterns, mortality and the need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) in CKD patients who underwent a kidney biopsy.

Abstract
The predictive value of traditional cardiovascular risk estimators is limited, and young and elderly populations are particularly underrepresented. We aimed to investigate the urine metabolome and its association with cardiovascular risk to identify novel markers that might complement current estimators based on age. Urine samples were collected from 234 subjects categorized into three age-grouped cohorts: 30-50 years (cohort I, young), 50-70 years (cohort II, middle-aged), and > 70 years (cohort III, elderly). Each cohort was further classified into three groups: (a) control, (b) individuals with cardiovascular risk factors, and (c) those who had a previous cardiovascular event. Novel urinary metabolites linked to cardiovascular risk were identified by nuclear magnetic resonance in cohort I and then evaluated by target mass spectrometry quantification in all cohorts. A previously identified metabolic fingerprint associated with atherosclerosis was also analyzed and its potential risk estimation investigated in the three aged cohorts. Three different metabolic signatures were identified according to age: 2-hydroxybutyrate, gamma-aminobutyric acid, hypoxanthine, guanidoacetate, oxaloacetate, and serine in young adults; citrate, cyclohexanol, glutamine, lysine, pantothenate, pipecolate, threonine, and tyramine shared by middle-aged and elderly adults; and trimethylamine N-oxide and glucuronate associated with cardiovascular risk in all three cohorts. The urinary metabolome contains a metabolic signature of cardiovascular risk that differs across age groups. These signatures might serve to complement existing algorithms and improve the accuracy of cardiovascular risk prediction for personalized prevention. KEY MESSAGES: • Cardiovascular risk in the young and elderly is underestimated. • The urinary metabolome reflects cardiovascular risk across all age groups. • Six metabolites constitute a metabolic signature of cardiovascular risk in young adults. • Middle-aged and elderly adults share a cardiovascular risk metabolic signature. • TMAO and glucuronate levels reflect cardiovascular risk across all age groups.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In contrast to patients with non-premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), patients with premature ASCVD have not observed a similar decline in cardiovascular mortality and recurrent adverse events. We sought to review the underlying risk factors, potential gaps in medical management, associated outcomes, and tools for risk prognostication among patients with premature ASCVD. RECENT FINDINGS In addition to traditional cardiovascular risk factors (i.e., diabetes, familial hypercholesterolemia), non-traditional risk factors such as chronic inflammatory conditions, recreational drug use, genetics, and pregnancy-related complications play a key role in development and progression of premature ASCVD. Patients with premature ASCVD, and especially women, receive less optimal medical management as compared to their non-premature counterparts. There is an increasing prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors among young adults. Hence, this population remains at an elevated risk for premature ASCVD and subsequent adverse cardiovascular events. Future studies evaluating different risk assessment tools and focusing on young patients across all three major domains of ASCVD are needed.

Differential metabolic profile associated with the condition of normoalbuminuria in the hypertensive population. Nefrologia 2020; 40:440-445. [PMID: 32144010 DOI: 10.1016/j.nefro.2019.10.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2019] [Revised: 10/14/2019] [Accepted: 10/24/2019] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Albuminuria is an indicator of sub-clinical organ damage and a marker of cardiovascular risk and renal disease. A percentage of hypertensive patients develop albuminuria despite being under chronic suppression of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). We previously identified urinary metabolites associated with the development of albuminuria. In this study, we searched for metabolic alterations which reflect different levels within the condition of normoalbuminuria. PATIENTS, MATERIALS AND METHODS Urine from 48 hypertensive patients under chronic RAS suppression was analysed. They were classified according to the albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) into 3groups: Normoalbuminuria (<10mg/g); high-normal (10-30mg/g in men, or 20-40mg/g in women); and moderately high albuminuria (microalbuminuria, 30-200mg/g or 40-300mg/g, respectively). The metabolome was analysed by mass spectrometry and a correlation analysis was performed between altered metabolite levels and ACR. RESULTS Oxaloacetate, 3-ureidopropionate, guanidoacetate and malate show significant variation between the normo and micro groups. Additionally, these metabolites are able to differentiate between patients in the normo and high-normal range. A significant correlation between metabolites and ACR was found. Observed variations point to alterations in the energy metabolism already in patients with albuminuria in the high-normal range. CONCLUSIONS The association between the molecular panel consisting of 3-ureidopropionate, oxaloacetate, malate and guanidoacetate and different levels of albuminuria is confirmed. A metabolic fingerprint was also identified showing variations within the condition of normoalbuminuria allowing an earlier molecular stratification of patients.

Lifetime cardiovascular risk is associated with a multimarker score of systemic oxidative status in young adults independently of traditional risk factors. Transl Res 2019; 212:54-66. [PMID: 31295436 DOI: 10.1016/j.trsl.2019.06.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2019] [Revised: 06/18/2019] [Accepted: 06/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Cardiovascular risk (CVR) tends to be estimated in the short-term, which underestimates lifetime (LT)-CVR of young subjects. We determined whether LT-CVR is associated with a multimarker score of oxidative status in young adults and whether this association is independent of traditional CVR factors. Seventy-two young adults were stratified into: (1) low or (2) high LT-CVR, and (3) stable coronary artery disease (SCAD). CVR was estimated with QRisk and atherosclerotic CV disease (ASCVD) risk estimators, or second manifestations of arterial disease (SMART). Risk score. oxidative damage was determined by measuring carbonyls, oxidized LDL (oxLDL), 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), and xanthine oxidase activity. Antioxidant defence was determined by total antioxidant capacity (TAC), catalase (CAT) activity and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Multimarker scores of systemic oxidative damage (OxyScore) and antioxidant defence (AntioxyScore) were computed as standardized variables. Subjects with high LT-CVR had significantly higher levels of oxLDL, 8-OHdG, TAC, and CAT activity than subjects with low LT-CVR or with SCAD. QRisk and ASCVD estimators correlated positively with oxLDL, TAC, and CAT activity, while SMART Risk Score correlated with carbonyls and SOD activity. OxyScore and AntioxyScore were significantly higher in subjects with high LT-CVR than with low LT-CVR or with SCAD. OxyScore, but not AntioxyScore, was associated with LT-CVR independently of each traditional CVR factor. This study for the first time demonstrates a positive association between oxidative stress and the risk of first and recurrent CV events in young adults.

Abstract
Introduction: Hypertension is a multifactorial disease that has, thus far, proven to be a difficult target for pharmacological intervention. The application of proteomic strategies may help to identify new biomarkers for the early diagnosis and prompt treatment of hypertension, in order to control blood pressure and prevent organ damage. Areas covered: Advances in proteomics have led to the discovery of new biomarkers to help track the pathophysiological processes implicated in hypertension. These findings not only help to better understand the nature of the disease, but will also contribute to the clinical needs for a timely diagnosis and more precise treatment. In this review, we provide an overview of new biomarkers identified in hypertension through the application of proteomic techniques, and we also discuss the difficulties and challenges in identifying biomarkers in this clinical setting. We performed a literature search in PubMed with the key words 'hypertension' and 'proteomics', and focused specifically on the most recent literature on the utility of proteomics in hypertension research. Expert opinion: There have been several promising biomarkers of hypertension identified by proteomics, but too few have been introduced to the clinic. Thus, further investigations in larger cohorts are necessary to test the feasibility of this strategy for patients. Also, this emerging field would profit from more collaboration between clinicians and researchers.
