[PMID: 38417449 DOI: 10.1111/cas.16112] [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: 11/28/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Identifying novel biomarkers for early detection of lung cancer is crucial. Non-invasively available saliva is an ideal biofluid for biomarker exploration; however, the rationale underlying biomarker detection from organs distal to the oral cavity in saliva requires clarification. Therefore, we analyzed metabolomic profiles of cancer tissues compared with those of adjacent non-cancerous tissues, as well as plasma and saliva samples collected from patients with lung cancer (n = 109 pairs). Additionally, we analyzed plasma and saliva samples collected from control participants (n = 83 and 71, respectively). Capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry were performed to comprehensively quantify hydrophilic metabolites. Paired tissues were compared, revealing 53 significantly different metabolites. Plasma and saliva showed 44 and 40 significantly different metabolites, respectively, between patients and controls. Of these, 12 metabolites exhibited significant differences in all three comparisons and primarily belonged to the polyamine and amino acid pathways; N1-acetylspermidine exhibited the highest discrimination ability. A combination of 12 salivary metabolites was evaluated using a machine learning method to differentiate patients with lung cancer from controls. Salivary data were randomly split into training and validation datasets. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve were 0.744 for cross-validation using training data and 0.792 for validation data. This model exhibited a higher discrimination ability for N1-acetylspermidine than that for other metabolites. The probability of lung cancer calculated using this model was independent of most patient characteristics. These results suggest that consistently different salivary biomarkers in both plasma and lung tissues might facilitate non-invasive lung cancer screening.

Abstract
Liquid biopsy, a novel detection method, has recently become an active research area in clinical cancer owing to its unique advantages. Studies on circulating free DNA, circulating tumor cells, and exosomes obtained by liquid biopsy have shown great advances and they have entered clinical practice as new cancer biomarkers. The metabolism of the body is dynamic as cancer originates and progresses. Metabolic abnormalities caused by cancer can be detected in the blood, sputum, urine, and other biological fluids via systemic or local circulation. A considerable number of recent studies have focused on the roles of metabolic molecules in cancer. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of metabolic markers from various biological fluids in the latest clinical studies, which may contribute to cancer screening and diagnosis, differentiation of cancer typing, grading and staging, and prediction of therapeutic response and prognosis.

Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 244:115779. [PMID: 37922808 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115779] [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: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
A label-free detection method for noninvasive biofluids enables rapid on-site disease screening and early-stage cancer diagnosis by analyzing metabolic alterations. Herein, we develop three-dimensional plasmonic hexaplex nanostructures coated on a paper substrate (3D-PHP). This flexible and highly absorptive 3D-PHP sensor is integrated with commercial saliva collection tube to create an efficient on-site sensing platform for lung cancer screening via surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) measurement of human saliva. The multispike hexaplex-shaped gold nanostructure enhances contact with saliva viscosity, enabling effective sampling and SERS enhancement. Through testing patient salivary samples, the 3D-PHP sensor demonstrates successful lung cancer detection and diagnosis. A logistic regression-based machine learning model successfully classifies benign and malignant patients, exhibiting high clinical sensitivity and specificity. Additionally, important Raman peak positions related to different lung cancer stages are investigated, suggesting insights for early-stage cancer diagnosis. Integrating 3D-PHP senor with the conventional saliva collection tube platform is expected to offer promising practicality for rapid on-site disease screening and diagnosis, and significant advancements in cancer detection and patient care.

Abstract
This review article compiles critical pre-analytical factors for sample collection and extraction of eight uncommon or underexplored biological specimens (human breast milk, ocular fluids, sebum, seminal plasma, sweat, hair, saliva, and cerebrospinal fluid) under the perspective of clinical metabolomics. These samples are interesting for metabolomics studies as they reflect the status of living organisms and can be applied for diagnostic purposes and biomarker discovery. Pre-collection and collection procedures are critical, requiring protocols to be standardized to avoid contamination and bias. Such procedures must consider cleaning the collection area, sample stimulation, diet, and food and drug intake, among other factors that impact the lack of homogeneity of the sample group. Precipitation of proteins and removal of salts and cell debris are the most used sample preparation procedures. This review intends to provide a global view of the practical aspects that most impact results, serving as a starting point for the designing of metabolomic experiments.

Abstract
Fundamental studies on biomarkers as well as developed assays for their detection can provide valuable information facilitating clinical decisions. For patients with lung cancer, there are established circulating biomarkers such as serum progastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and cytokeratin-19 fragment (CYFRA21-1). There are also molecular biomarkers for targeted therapy such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene, KRAS gene, and BRAF gene. However, there is still an unmet need for biomarkers that can be used for early detection and predict treatment response and survival. In this review, we describe the lung cancer biomarkers that are currently being used in clinical practice. We also discuss emerging preclinical and clinical studies on new biomarkers such as omics-based biomarkers for their potential clinical use to detect, predict, or monitor subtypes of lung cancer. Additionally, between-method differences in tumor markers warrant further development and improvement of the standardization and harmonization for each assay.

Abstract
Metabolomics samples like human urine or serum contain upwards of a few thousand metabolites, but individual analytical techniques can only characterize a few hundred metabolites at best. The uncertainty in metabolite identification commonly encountered in untargeted metabolomics adds to this low coverage problem. A multiplatform (multiple analytical techniques) approach can improve upon the number of metabolites reliably detected and correctly assigned. This can be further improved by applying synergistic sample preparation along with the use of combinatorial or sequential non-destructive and destructive techniques. Similarly, peak detection and metabolite identification strategies that employ multiple probabilistic approaches have led to better annotation decisions. Applying these techniques also addresses the issues of reproducibility found in single platform methods. Nevertheless, the analysis of large data sets from disparate analytical techniques presents unique challenges. While the general data processing workflow is similar across multiple platforms, many software packages are only fully capable of processing data types from a single analytical instrument. Traditional statistical methods such as principal component analysis were not designed to handle multiple, distinct data sets. Instead, multivariate analysis requires multiblock or other model types for understanding the contribution from multiple instruments. This review summarizes the advantages, limitations, and recent achievements of a multiplatform approach to untargeted metabolomics.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is an important cause of end-stage renal disease with changes in metabolic characteristics. The objective of this study was to study changes in serum metabolic characteristics in patients with DKD and to examine metabolite panels to distinguish DKD from diabetes with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). We recruited 40 type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with or without DKD from a single center for a cross-sectional study. Serum metabolic profiling was performed with MALDI-TOF-MS using a vertical silicon nanowire array. Differential metabolites between DKD and diabetes patients were selected, and their relevance to the clinical parameters of DKD was analyzed. We applied machine learning methods to the differential metabolite panels to distinguish DKD patients from diabetes patients. Twenty-four differential serum metabolites between DKD patients and diabetes patients were identified, which were mainly enriched in butyrate metabolism, TCA cycle, and alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism. Among the metabolites, l-kynurenine was positively correlated with urinary microalbumin, urinary microalbumin/creatinine ratio (UACR), creatinine, and urea nitrogen content. l-Serine, pimelic acid, 5-methylfuran-2-carboxylic acid, 4-methylbenzaldehyde, and dihydrouracil were associated with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The panel of differential metabolites could be used to distinguish between DKD and diabetes patients with an AUC value reaching 0.9899-0.9949. Among the differential metabolites, l-kynurenine was related to the progression of DKD. The differential metabolites exhibited excellent performance at distinguishing between DKD and diabetes. This study provides a novel direction for metabolomics-based clinical detection of DKD.

Abstract
This review analyzed 21 scientific papers on the determination of amino acids in various types of cancer in saliva. Most of the studies are on oral cancer (8/21), breast cancer (4/21), gastric cancer (3/21), lung cancer (2/21), glioblastoma (2/21) and one study on colorectal, pancreatic, thyroid and liver cancer. The amino acids alanine, valine, phenylalanine, leucine and isoleucine play a leading role in the diagnosis of cancer via the saliva. In an independent version, amino acids are rarely used; the authors combine either amino acids with each other or with other metabolites, which makes it possible to obtain high values of sensitivity and specificity. Nevertheless, a logical and complete substantiation of the changes in saliva occurring in cancer, including changes in salivary amino acid levels, has not yet been formed, which makes it important to continue research in this direction.

Abstract
Late diagnosis is one of the major contributing factors to the high mortality rate of lung cancer, which is now the leading cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. At present, low-dose CT (LDCT) screening in the high-risk population, in which lung cancer incidence is higher than that of the low-risk population is the predominant diagnostic strategy. Although this has efficiently reduced lung cancer mortality in large randomized trials, LDCT screening has high false-positive rates, resulting in excessive subsequent follow-up procedures and radiation exposure. Complementation of LDCT examination with biofluid-based biomarkers has been documented to increase efficacy, and this type of preliminary screening can potentially reduce potential radioactive damage to low-risk populations and the burden of hospital resources. Several molecular signatures based on components of the biofluid metabolome that can possibly discriminate patients with lung cancer from healthy individuals have been proposed over the past two decades. In the present review, advancements in currently available technologies in metabolomics were reviewed, with particular focus on their possible application in lung cancer screening and early detection.

Abstract
Saliva is a complex biological fluid with a variety of biomolecules, such as DNA, RNA, proteins, metabolites and microbiota, which can be used for the screening and diagnosis of many diseases. In addition, saliva has the characteristics of simple collection, non-invasive and convenient storage, which gives it the potential to replace blood as a new main body of fluid biopsy, and it is an excellent biological diagnostic fluid. This review integrates recent studies and summarizes the research contents of salivaomics and the research progress of saliva in early diagnosis of oral and systemic diseases. This review aims to explore the value and prospect of saliva diagnosis in clinical application.

[PMID: 36676953 PMCID: PMC9863679 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13010028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Cancers are the leading cause of death worldwide. The most common cancers include breast, lung, and colorectum. Salivary metabolome profiling is a novel non-invasive method in oncological diagnosis. This systematic review was designed to answer the question "Are salivary metabolites reliable for the diagnosis of systemic cancers?". Following the inclusion and exclusion criteria, nineteen studies were included (according to PRISMA statement guidelines). Changes in salivary metabolome were most commonly determined in patients with breast cancer, gastrointestinal cancers, and lung cancer. Most studies involved unstimulated whole saliva as the diagnostic material, evaluated by different spectroscopic methods. Among the found saliva metabolites, the alterations in the metabolic pathways of amino acids and polyamines were most frequently observed, which showed significant predictive values in oncological diagnostics. The most frequently encountered risks of bias were the absence of data regarding blinding, sample size justification, and randomisation. In conclusion, salivary metabolites seem to be potentially reliable for detecting the most common systemic cancers. However, further research is desirable to confirm these outcomes and to detect new potential metabolic biomarkers in saliva.

Abstract
Although the incidence and mortality of lung cancer have decreased significantly in the past decade, it is still one of the leading causes of death, which greatly impairs people’s life and health. Proteomics is an emerging technology that involves the application of techniques for identifying and quantifying the overall proteins in cells, tissues and organisms, and can be combined with genomics, transcriptomics to form a multi-omics research model. By comparing the content of proteins between normal and tumor tissues, proteomics can be applied to different clinical aspects like diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis, especially the exploration of disease biomarkers and therapeutic targets. The applications of proteomics have promoted the research on lung cancer. To figure out potential applications of proteomics associated with lung cancer, we summarized the role of proteomics in studies about tumorigenesis, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment and resistance of lung cancer in this review, which will provide guidance for more rational application of proteomics and potential therapeutic strategies of lung cancer.
