Circulating metabolites in the early stage of breast cancer were not related to cancer stage or subtypes but associated with ki67 level. Promising statistical discrimination from controls. Mol Cell Probes 2022; 66:101862. [PMID: 36162596 DOI: 10.1016/j.mcp.2022.101862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
It was documented that the presence of malignancy in an organism causes metabolomic alterations in blood plasma which applies also to breast cancer. Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease and there are only limited known relations of plasma metabolomic signatures with the tumour characteristics in early BC and knowing them would be of great advantage in noninvasive diagnostics. In this study, we focused on the metabolic alterations in early BC in blood plasma with the aim to identify metabolomic characteristics of BC subtypes. We used 50 early BC patients (FIGO stage I and II), where no additional metabolomic changes from metastatically changed remote organs were to be expected. We compared plasma levels of metabolites against controls and among various molecular and histological BC subtypes. BC patients showed decreased plasma levels of branched-chain amino acids BCAAs (and related keto-acids), histidine pyruvate and alanine balanced with an increased level of 3-hydroxybutyrate. The levels of circulating metabolites were not related to BC molecular subtypes (luminal A/luminal B), histological finding or grade, eventually stage, which indicate that in early BC, the BC patients share common metabolomics fingerprint in blood plasma independent of grade, stage or molecular subtype of BC. We observed statistically significant correlations between tumour proliferation marker Ki-67 level and circulating metabolites: alanine, citrate, tyrosine, glutamine, histidine and proline. This may point out the metabolites those levels could be associated with tumour growth, and conversely, the rate of tumour proliferation could be potentially estimated from plasma metabolites. When analyzing metabolomic changes in BC, we concluded that some of them could be associated with the metabolomic features of cancer cells, but the other observed alterations in blood plasma are the results of the complex mutual biochemical pathways in the comprehensive inter-organ metabolic exchange and communication. In the end, statistical discrimination against controls performed with AUC >0.91 showed the very promising potential of plasma metabolomics in the search for biomarkers for oncologic diseases.

Abstract
In the present review, we will discuss the recent advances in the understanding of the role of histamine and histamine receptors in cancer biology. The controversial role of the histaminergic system in different neoplasias including gastric, colorectal, oesophageal, oral, pancreatic, liver, lung, skin, blood and breast cancers will be reviewed. The expression of histamine receptor subtypes, with special emphasis on the histamine H4 receptor, in different cell lines and human tumours, the signal transduction pathways and the associated biological responses as well as the in vivo treatment of experimental tumours with pharmacological ligands will be described. The presented evidence demonstrates that histamine regulates cancer-associated biological processes during cancer development in multiple cell types, including neoplastic cells and cells in the tumour micro-environment. The outcome will depend on tumour cell type, the level of expression of histamine receptors, signal transduction associated with these receptors, tumour micro-environment and histamine metabolism, reinforcing the complexity of cancer disease. Findings show the pivotal role of H4 receptors in the development and progression of many types of cancers, and considering its immunomodulatory properties, the H4 receptor appears to be the most promising molecular therapeutic target for cancer treatment within the histamine receptor family. Furthermore, the H4 receptor is differentially expressed in tumours compared with normal tissues, and in most cancer types in which data are available, H4 receptor expression is associated with clinicopathological characteristics, suggesting that H4 receptors might represent a novel cancer biomarker.

Abstract
In this study, a highly sensitive analysis method for the rapid detection of histamine (HA), imidazole-4-acetic acid (IAA) and 1-methylhistamine (MHA) in pregnant women's fingernails was developed using the ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS). HA and MHA were connected with 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-F) as the derivation reagent for the first time. IAA was derivatized with 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-7-piperazino-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-PZ) successfully. The derivative mixtures were simultaneously separated within 8 min on an ACQUITY UPLCTM BEH C18 column (1.7 μm, 100 × 2.1 mm i.d.) by isocratic elution using a mixture of 20 mM HCOONH4 and CH3CN (82:18) as the mobile phase, and sensitively detected by selected reaction monitoring (SRM). The quantitative analysis of HA, IAA, and MHA are performed by SRM using the fragmentation transitions of m/z 337.2 → 292.1, 420.6 → 375.1 and 351.2 → 306.0 under the positive ESI mode. The calibration curves for HA, IAA and MHA are presented herein, and their correlation coefficient were found to be above 0.9998, the measured detection limit for derivatized histamine and metabolites ranged from 0.06 to 0.15 fmol, and the relative standard derivation of intra-day and inter-day assays was 6.3%. Furthermore, the mean recoveries (%) of the standards added to human fingernails were in the range of 90.2 - 100.5%. The validated method was successfully applied to analyze human fingernail samples from three pregnant women and three healthy non-pregnant women. To the best of our knowledge, this report about the detection of histamine and metabolites in the fingernails of pregnant women's fingernails is the first published.

Abstract
Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) is a key determinant of the levels of endogenous histamine that has long been recognized to play important pathophysiological roles during development of chronic heart failure (CHF). Meanwhile, certain genetic variants in HDC gene were reported to affect the function of HDC and associated with histamine-related diseases. However, the relation between polymorphisms of HDC gene and CHF risk remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the associations between 2 nonsynonymous HDC polymorphisms (rs17740607 and rs2073440) and CHF. We designed a 2-stage case-control study, in which we genotyped 439 patients with CHF and 467 healthy controls recruited in Xi'an, China, and replicated this study in 413 patients with CHF and 452 healthy subjects in Kunming, China. We also performed in vitro experiments to further validate the functional consequences of variants positively associated with CHF. The rs17740607 polymorphism showed replicated associations with all-cause CHF according to genotype and allele distribution and also under a dominant and additive genetic model after adjusted for traditional cardiovascular-related factors. Functional experiments further demonstrated that rs17740607 polymorphism decreased the HDC activity. In conclusion, HDC rs17740607 polymorphism is at least a partial loss-of-function variant and acts as a protective factor against CHF, which provides novel highlights for investigating the contribution of CHF.

Abstract
Histamine is an important mediator of anaphylactic reactions. Although several methods have been developed to measure histamine levels, each has its limitations. In this study, we developed and validated a convenient bioanalytical method for the qualitative and quantitative determination of histamine in plasma samples from humans, beagle dogs, Sprague-Dawley rats, and imprinting control region mice. A simple plasma protein precipitation method using acetonitrile was selected, and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry was used for sample separation and detection. Histamine was subjected to gradient elution with acetonitrile, ammonium acetate buffer, and formic acid. A mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization source was operated in the positive-ion multiple reaction monitoring mode for the detection of histamine and the internal standard. The [M+H](+) transitions were m/z 112→95 for histamine and m/z 116→99 for d4-histamine, which was used as the internal standard. The lower limit of quantification was 0.2μg/L and the calibration range was 0.2-500μg/L. The overall recovery ranged from 93.6% to 102.8%. The intra- and inter-run precision and accuracy were <15% for plasma samples from all four species. The method was validated by measuring the plasma histamine concentrations in five healthy human volunteers. In conclusion, we have developed and validated a novel bioanalytical method for the quantification of histamine levels in plasma samples from various mammalian species.

Abstract
Fractions collected from humic acids under acidic and basic conditions were immobilized on silica gel and used as adsorbents for a variety of agricultural pesticide compounds bearing a single carboxyl functional group and biogenic amines in acetonitrile. Among these compounds examined under the same conditions, the percentage of adsorption varies considerably from 0 to almost 100%. The percentage is found to be highly related to the structure of the analyte and the type of functional group attached to it. The adsorption, better performed on adsorbent immobilized with the fraction collected under acidic conditions, is believed to result from the reversible interaction between the functional moieties of the analyte and humic acids (e.g., amino or carboxyl group of analyte vs carboxyl group of humic acids, etc.) as no adsorption is observed under the same conditions for analytes that are derivatives of alcohol, amide, and ester. Given the nature of the analyte, the time needed to reach the maximum percent of adsorption decreases as the amount of adsorbent is increased. Also, the longer the time that has elapsed, the higher the percentage of analyte adsorbed, thus indicating that the adsorption process is surface-oriented. Factors such as the acidic or basic origin of the additive in the liquid phase of the matrix also affect the percentage of analyte adsorbed.

In this review, we introduce new types of fluorescence derivatization LC analysis methods. These are (1) detection-selective derivatization methods based on fluorescence interactions generated from fluorescently labeled analytes: excimer fluorescence derivatization and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) derivatization; (2) separation-selective derivatization methods using the fluorous separation technique: fluorous derivatization, F-trap fluorescence derivatization, and fluorous scavenging derivatization (FSD).

Abstract
Colorectal carcinogenesis involves the overexpression of many immediate-early response genes associated with growth and inflammation, which significantly alters downstream protein synthesis and small-molecule metabolite production. We have performed a serum metabolic analysis to test the hypothesis that the distinct metabolite profiles of malignant tumors are reflected in biofluids. In this study, we have analyzed the serum metabolites from 64 colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and 65 healthy controls using gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOFMS) and Acquity ultraperformance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (Acquity UPLC-QTOFMS). Orthogonal partial least-squares discriminate analysis (OPLS-DA) models generated from GC-TOFMS and UPLC-QTOFMS metabolic profile data showed robust discrimination from CRC patients and healthy controls. A total of 33 differential metabolites were identified using these two analytical platforms, five of which were detected in both instruments. These metabolites potentially reveal perturbation of glycolysis, arginine and proline metabolism, fatty acid metabolism and oleamide metabolism, associated with CRC morbidity. These results suggest that serum metabolic profiling has great potential in detecting CRC and helping to understand its underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
The rapid determination of histamine (HA) and several metabolites, i.e., 1-methylhistamine (MHA), imidazole-4-acetic acid (IAA), and 1-methyl-4-imidazole-acetic acid (MIAA), in mice hairs was performed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-TOF-MS). HA and MHA, having a primary amino group (NH(2)) in their structures, were first labeled with 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-F) at 60 degrees C for 45 min in the mixture of 0.1M borax (pH 9.3) and acetonitrile (CH(3)CN). On the other hand, 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-7-piperazino-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-PZ) was used for the labeling of a carboxylic acid group (COOH) in IAA and MIAA in the presence of 2,2'-dipyridyl disulfide (DPDS) and triphenylphosphine (TPP). The reaction with DBD-PZ was completed at 50 degrees C after 2h. The resulting derivatives of HA and the metabolites were perfectly separated using an ACQUITY UPLCtrade mark BEH C(18) column (1.7 microm, 100 x 2.1mm, i.d.) with the mixture of 20 mM HCOONH(4) and CH(3)CN (8:2). The structures of HA and the metabolites were identified from the protonated-molecular ions [M+H](+) and the de-protonated-molecular ions [M-H](-) of authentic compounds, obtained from TOF-MS measurement. A good linearity was achieved from the calibration curves, obtained by plotting the peak area ratios of the analytes relative to the internal standard (IS), i.e., histamine-alpha,alpha,beta,beta-d(4) (HA-d(4)) or 4-imidazolecarboxylic acid (ICA), against the injected amounts of each compound (1.0-25 pmol, r(2)=0.998). The detection limits of HA and the metabolites were less than 1 pmol. The proposed method was applied to the determination in the hair shafts of C3H mice. The average concentrations of HA, MHA, IAA and MIAA in 1mg of the hair shafts were 16.3 pmol (n=7), 21.6 pmol (n=3), 6.6 pmol (n=3) and 7.1 pmol (n=3), respectively. Because the proposed method provides good mass accuracy and the trace detection of HA and several metabolites in hair, this analytical technique seems to be applicable for the determination of various biological compounds in hair.

Mast cells and their mediators are important conveyors in the communication from the innate enteric immune system to the enteric nervous system (ENS). However, it is not known whether a mediator cocktail released from activated human mast cells affects neural activity in the ENS. We used the Multi-Site Optical Recording Technique to image single cell activity in guinea-pig and human ENS after application of a mast cell mediator cocktail (MCMC) that was released from isolated human intestinal mucosa mast cells stimulated by IgE-receptor cross-linking. Local application of MCMC onto individual ganglia evoked an excitatory response consisting of action potential discharge. This excitatory response occurred in 31%, 38% or 11% neurons of guinea-pig submucous plexus, human submucous plexus, or guinea-pig myenteric plexus, respectively. Compound action potentials from nerve fibres or fast excitatory synaptic inputs were not affected by MCMC. This study demonstrates immunoneural signalling in the human gut and revealed for the first time that an MCMC released from stimulated human intestinal mast cells induces excitatory actions in the human and guinea-pig ENS.

Abstract
Sensitive determination of histamine (HA) in hair was carried out by column-switching reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS). HA was labeled with excess amounts of 4-(N,N-dimethylaminosulfonyl)-7-fluoro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DBD-F) at 60 degrees C for 30 min in a mixture of 0.1 M borax (pH 9.3) and acetonitrile (CH(3)CN). The resulting DBD-HA derivative was roughly separated by a Mightysil RP-18 GP (100 x 2mm i.d., 3 microm) with an acidic mobile phase containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. DBD-HA in the fraction flowing due to a position change in the six-port column-switching valve was then completely separated by a Wakopak Navi C30 (150 x 2mm i.d., 5 microm) with 20 mM AcONH(4)-CH(3)CN (8:2). The mass spectrometer was operated in the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mode for the product ion (m/z 292) obtained from MS-MS measurement using the protonated molecular ion [M+H](+) (m/z 337) as the precursor ion. Good linearity was achieved from the calibration curve obtained by plotting peak area ratios of the internal standard (HA-d(4)) against the injected amounts of HA (1.66-16.6 pmol, r(2)=0.999). The coefficients of variation, at 1.66- and 16.6-pmol injections, were 5.6 and 3.7%, respectively (n=6). Furthermore, the detection limit was 0.167 pmol. The efficiency of the recommended procedure was identified from the determination in the rat hair root after intraperitoneal administration of HA. The proposed method was applied to HA determination in the hair shaft of Dark Agouti rats and healthy volunteers. The variations in the concentrations in 1mg of hair shaft were 0.80-1.84 pmol (mean+/-SD=1.33+/-0.33, n=12) in rats and 0.94-72.3 pmol (17.2+/-21.5, n=16) in humans. The determination of HA in the plasma of rats and humans was also performed successfully by this method. Because the proposed method provides good precision and trace detection of HA in hair, the analytical technique seems to be applicable for the determination of various biogenic amines in hair.

Abstract
A nano-liquid chromatographic /tandem mass spectrometric (nanoHPLC/MS/MS) method has been developed for the sensitive determination of histamine, a vital neurotransmitter. The method involved pre-column derivatization of histamine with 7-fluoro-4-nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD-F), thus increasing the hydrophobicity of the analyte and allowing it to be retained and stacked on a nanoelectrospay emitter packed with C18 reversed-phase particles. Sodium 1-heptanesulfonate, added as an ion-pairing reagent in the mobile phase for sample loading, was found to facilitate greatly the analyte retention. The packed nanoelectrospray emitter was easily prepared using fused-silica capillary of 75 microm i.d., and included creating an electrospray emitter tip and then slurry-packing a 5 cm long column with 5 microm silica-based particles. After sample loading, the mobile phase was changed for separation and a characteristic precursor-to-product ion transition, m/z 275 --> 258, was used for the quantification. A linear calibration curve in the range from 1.0-100 ng/mL histamine with an r2 value of 0.9995 was obtained. The detection limit was estimated to be 0.1 ng/mL histamine in water. In a preliminary validation, the method was applied to determine histamine in alcoholic beverages and rat brain tissues.

Abstract
A highly sensitive, selective and simple method is described for the determination of histamine by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection. The method is based on an intramolecular excimer-forming fluorescence derivatization of histamine with 4-(1-pyrene)butyric acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (PSE), followed by reversed-phase HPLC. Histamine, having two amino moieties in a molecule, was converted to the dipyrene-labeled derivative by reaction with PSE. The derivative afforded intramolecular excimer fluorescence (450-540 nm), which can clearly be discriminated from the monomer fluorescence (370-420 nm) emitted from PSE. Typically, a 10 micro L sample solution was mixed with 100 micro L of derivatization reagent solution, which was a mixture of 0.5 mm PSE in acetonitrile and 0.5 mm potassium carbonate in water (8:2, v/v). The derivatization was carried out at 100 degrees C for 90 min. The PSE derivative of histamine could be separated by reversed-phase ODS column with isocratic elution using acetonitrile:water (82:18, v/v) containing 0.03% triethylamine. The detection limit (singnal-to-noise ratio = 3) of histamine was 0.5 fmol for a 30 micro L injection. The method was successfully applied to the determination of histamine in human urine, and had enough selectivity and sensitivity for urinary histamine quantification.
