Latosinska A, Frantzi M, Siwy J. Peptides as "better biomarkers"? Value, challenges, and potential solutions to facilitate implementation. MASS SPECTROMETRY REVIEWS 2024; 43:1195-1236. [PMID: 37357849 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21854] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/27/2023]
Abstract
Peptides carry important functions in normal physiological and pathophysiological processes and can serve as clinically useful biomarkers. Given the ability to diffuse passively across endothelial barriers, endogenous peptides can be examined in several body fluids, including among others urine, blood, and cerebrospinal fluid. This review article provides an update on the recently published literature that reports on investigating native peptides in body fluids using mass spectrometry-based platforms, specifically those studies that focus on the application of peptides as biomarkers to improve clinical management. We emphasize on the critical evaluation of their clinical value, how close they are to implementation, and the associated challenges and potential solutions to facilitate clinical implementation. During the last 5 years, numerous studies have been published, demonstrating the increased interest in mass spectrometry for the assessment of endogenous peptides as potential biomarkers. Importantly, the presence of few successful examples of implementation in patients' management and/or in the context of clinical trials indicates that the peptide biomarker field is evolving. Nevertheless, most studies still report evidence based on small sample size, while validation phases are frequently missing. Therefore, a gap between discovery and implementation still exists.

Unveiling novel serum biomarkers in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: a pilot proteomic exploration. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1440985. [PMID: 39286634 PMCID: PMC11403330 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1440985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Recent advancements in proteomics have shown promise in identifying biomarkers for various cancers. Our study is the first to compare the serum proteomes of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) with cirrhosis (CIR), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), aiming to identify a proteomic signature that can effectively distinguish among these conditions. Utilizing high-throughput mass spectrometry on serum samples, we identified 845 proteins, of which 646 were suitable for further analysis. Unique clustering patterns were observed among the five groups, with significant proteomic differences. Our key findings include: S100 calcium-binding protein A9 (S100A9) and haptoglobin (HP) were more abundant in iCCA, while intercellular adhesion molecule 2 (ICAM2) was higher in HCC. Serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) and A4 (SAA4) emerged as potential biomarkers, with SAA1 significantly different in the iCCA vs healthy controls (HC) comparison, and SAA4 in the HCC vs HC comparison. Elevated levels of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) in HCC suggested its potential as a differentiation and diagnostic marker. Angiopoietin-1 receptor (TEK) also showed discriminatory and diagnostic potential in HCC. ELISA validation corroborated mass spectrometry findings. Our study underscores the potential of proteomic profiling in distinguishing iCCA from other liver conditions and highlights the need for further validation to establish robust diagnostic biomarkers.

Hepatobiliary Pancreat Dis Int 2024; 23:385-392. [PMID: 38040523 DOI: 10.1016/j.hbpd.2023.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is a common public health issue and is currently deemed a disease. Research has shown that the risk of gallstones in individuals with obesity is elevated. This study aimed to explore the bile proteomics differences between cholelithiasis patients with obesity and normal body weight. METHODS Bile samples from 20 patients (10 with obesity and 10 with normal body weight) who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at our center were subjected to tandem mass tag labeling (TMT) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), followed by further bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS Among the differentially expressed proteins, 23 were upregulated and 67 were downregulated. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that these differentially expressed proteins were mainly involved in cell development, inflammatory responses, glycerolipid metabolic processes, and protein activation cascades. In addition, the activity of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR, a subfamily of nuclear receptors) signaling pathway was decreased in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. Two downregulated proteins in the PPAR signaling pathway, APO A-I and APO A-II, were confirmed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. CONCLUSIONS The PPAR signaling pathway may play a crucial role in the development of cholelithiasis among patients with obesity. Furthermore, biliary proteomics profiling of gallstones patients with obesity is revealed, providing a reference for future research.

MicroRNAs as Bile-based biomarkers in pancreaticobiliary cancers (MIRABILE): a cohort study. Int J Surg 2024; 110:01279778-990000000-01834. [PMID: 39041944 PMCID: PMC11486953 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000001888] [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: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Biliary obstruction can be due to both malignant and benign pancreaticobiliary disease. Currently, there are no biomarkers that can accurately help make this distinction. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are stable molecules in tissue and biofluids that are commonly deregulated in cancer. The MIRABILE study aimed to identify miRNAs in bile that can differentiate malignant from benign pancreaticobiliary disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS There were 111 patients recruited prospectively at endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC) for obstructive jaundice, and bile was aspirated for cell-free RNA (cfRNA) extraction and analysis. In a discovery cohort of 78 patients (27 with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), 14 cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), 37 benign disease), cfRNA was subjected to small-RNA sequencing. LASSO regression was used to define bile miRNA signatures, and NormFinder to identify endogenous controls. In a second cohort of 87 patients (34 PDAC, 14 CCA, 39 benign disease), RT-qPCR was used for validation. RESULTS LASSO regression identified 14 differentially-expressed bile miRNAs of which 6 were selected for validation. When comparing malignant and benign pancreaticobiliary disease, bile miR-340 and miR-182 were validated and significantly differentially expressed (P<0.05 and P<0.001, respectively). This generated an AUC of 0.79 (95%CI 0.70-0.88, sensitivity 65%; specificity 82%) in predicting malignant disease. CONCLUSION Bile collected during biliary drainage contains miRNAs able to differentiate benign from malignant pancreaticobiliary diseases in patients with obstructive jaundice. These bile miRNAs have the potential to increase diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is currently recognized as a life-threatening disease, leading to an exponential increase in morbidity and mortality worldwide. At present, AKI is characterized by a significant increase in serum creatinine (SCr) levels, typically followed by a sudden drop in glomerulus filtration rate (GFR). Changes in urine output are usually associated with the renal inability to excrete urea and other nitrogenous waste products, causing extracellular volume and electrolyte imbalances. Several molecular mechanisms were proposed to be affiliated with AKI development and progression, ultimately involving renal epithelium tubular cell-cycle arrest, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, the inability to recover and regenerate proximal tubules, and impaired endothelial function. Diagnosis and prognosis using state-of-the-art clinical markers are often late and provide poor outcomes at disease onset. Inappropriate clinical assessment is a strong disease contributor, actively driving progression towards end stage renal disease (ESRD). Proteins, as the main functional and structural unit of the cell, provide the opportunity to monitor the disease on a molecular level. Changes in the proteomic profiles are pivotal for the expression of molecular pathways and disease pathogenesis. Introduction of highly-sensitive and innovative technology enabled the discovery of novel biomarkers for improved risk stratification, better and more cost-effective medical care for the ill patients and advanced personalized medicine. In line with those strategies, this review provides and discusses the latest findings of proteomic-based biomarkers and their prospective clinical application for AKI management.

Identification of a novel bile marker clusterin and a public online prediction platform based on deep learning for cholangiocarcinoma. BMC Med 2023; 21:294. [PMID: 37553571 PMCID: PMC10408060 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-023-02990-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly aggressive malignant tumor, and its diagnosis is still a challenge. This study aimed to identify a novel bile marker for CCA diagnosis based on proteomics and establish a diagnostic model with deep learning. METHODS A total of 644 subjects (236 CCA and 408 non-CCA) from two independent centers were divided into discovery, cross-validation, and external validation sets for the study. Candidate bile markers were identified by three proteomics data and validated on 635 clinical humoral specimens and 121 tissue specimens. A diagnostic multi-analyte model containing bile and serum biomarkers was established in cross-validation set by deep learning and validated in an independent external cohort. RESULTS The results of proteomics analysis and clinical specimen verification showed that bile clusterin (CLU) was significantly higher in CCA body fluids. Based on 376 subjects in the cross-validation set, ROC analysis indicated that bile CLU had a satisfactory diagnostic power (AUC: 0.852, sensitivity: 73.6%, specificity: 90.1%). Building on bile CLU and 63 serum markers, deep learning established a diagnostic model incorporating seven factors (CLU, CA19-9, IBIL, GGT, LDL-C, TG, and TBA), which showed a high diagnostic utility (AUC: 0.947, sensitivity: 90.3%, specificity: 84.9%). External validation in an independent cohort (n = 259) resulted in a similar accuracy for the detection of CCA. Finally, for the convenience of operation, a user-friendly prediction platform was built online for CCA. CONCLUSIONS This is the largest and most comprehensive study combining bile and serum biomarkers to differentiate CCA. This diagnostic model may potentially be used to detect CCA.

Derivatization to increase the detectability of small peptides in blood serum in the analysis by ESI and MALDI high resolution mass spectrometric methods. Talanta 2023; 253:123922. [PMID: 36122435 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2022.123922] [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: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
This work highlights the efficient approach to highly sensitive determination of dipeptides that can present in biological liquids at very low and trace quantities. The approach involves preliminary derivatization of peptides with tris(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-methyl carbenium hexafluoroborate followed by ESI and MALDI high-resolution mass spectrometry. Using model dipeptides with various amino acid compositions and sequences, it was shown that the derivatization reaction proceeded smoothly in mild conditions and gave rise to pink-red colored salt derivatives. Ready cations of interest for the analysis are easily desorbed from the salt-derivatives providing strong signals in ESI and MALDI mass spectra and this ensures high sensitivity of the analysis. Another positive aspect is the removal of the target signal from the region of a matrix noise, since the introduced fragment possesses a large mass increment (359 Da). High resolution mass spectrometry, which provides the determination of accurate weights and elemental compositions of ions, was used to reliably detect model dipeptides added to artificial urine and blood serum. A number of these dipeptides was shown to be present in real blood serum collected from volunteers. Collision induced dissociation of precursor cations composed of derivatizing reagent and dipeptide moieties gives rise to characteristic and simple fragmentation mass spectra. A comparison of limits of detection (LOD) measured for non-modified and derivatized dipeptides showed that the latter derivatives provide the highest sensitivity when LOD is determined by using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions. The suggested derivatization approach was shown to be useful for unambiguous identification of special dipeptides in artificial media and dietary supplements.

[PMID: 35619118 PMCID: PMC9134609 DOI: 10.1186/s13046-022-02386-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is still a deadly tumour. Histological and molecular aspects of thioacetamide (TAA)-induced intrahepatic CCA (iCCA) in rats mimic those of human iCCA. Carcinogenic changes and therapeutic vulnerabilities in CCA may be captured by molecular investigations in bile, where we performed bile proteomic and metabolomic analyses that help discovery yet unknown pathways relevant to human iCCA. Methods Cholangiocarcinogenesis was induced in rats (TAA) and mice (JnkΔhepa + CCl4 + DEN model). We performed proteomic and metabolomic analyses in bile from control and CCA-bearing rats. Differential expression was validated in rat and human CCAs. Mechanisms were addressed in human CCA cells, including Huh28-KRASG12D cells. Cell signaling, growth, gene regulation and [U-13C]-D-glucose-serine fluxomics analyses were performed. In vivo studies were performed in the clinically-relevant iCCA mouse model. Results Pathways related to inflammation, oxidative stress and glucose metabolism were identified by proteomic analysis. Oxidative stress and high amounts of the oncogenesis-supporting amino acids serine and glycine were discovered by metabolomic studies. Most relevant hits were confirmed in rat and human CCAs (TCGA). Activation of interleukin-6 (IL6) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) pathways, and key genes in cancer-related glucose metabolic reprogramming, were validated in TAA-CCAs. In TAA-CCAs, G9a, an epigenetic pro-tumorigenic writer, was also increased. We show that EGFR signaling and mutant KRASG12D can both activate IL6 production in CCA cells. Furthermore, phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), the rate-limiting enzyme in serine-glycine pathway, was upregulated in human iCCA correlating with G9a expression. In a G9a activity-dependent manner, KRASG12D promoted PHGDH expression, glucose flow towards serine synthesis, and increased CCA cell viability. KRASG12D CAA cells were more sensitive to PHGDH and G9a inhibition than controls. In mouse iCCA, G9a pharmacological targeting reduced PHGDH expression. Conclusions In CCA, we identified new pro-tumorigenic mechanisms: Activation of EGFR signaling or KRAS mutation drives IL6 expression in tumour cells; Glucose metabolism reprogramming in iCCA includes activation of the serine-glycine pathway; Mutant KRAS drives PHGDH expression in a G9a-dependent manner; PHGDH and G9a emerge as therapeutic targets in iCCA.

Abstract
Simple Summary A liquid biopsy has the characteristics of low trauma and easy acquisition in the diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma. Many researchers try to find diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers of CCA through blood, urine, bile and other body fluids. Due to the close proximity of bile to the lesion and the stable nature, bile gradually comes into people’s view. The evaluation of human bile diagnostic biomarkers is not only to the benefit of screening more suitable clinical markers but also of exploring the pathological changes of the disease. Abstract Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a multifactorial malignant tumor of the biliary tract, and the incidence of CCA is increasing in recent years. At present, the diagnosis of CCA mainly depends on imaging and invasive examination, with limited specificity and sensitivity and late detection. The early diagnosis of CCA always faces the dilemma of lacking specific diagnostic biomarkers. Non-invasive methods to assess the degree of CAA have been developed throughout the last decades. Among the many specimens looking for CCA biomarkers, bile has gotten a lot of attention lately. This paper mainly summarizes the recent developments in the current research on the diagnostic biomarkers for CCA in human bile at the levels of the gene, protein, metabolite, extracellular vesicles and volatile organic compounds.

Abstract
Defective complement activation has been associated with various types of kidney disease. This led to the hypothesis that specific urine complement fragments may be associated with kidney disease etiologies, and disease progression may be reflected by changes in these complement fragments. We investigated the occurrence of complement fragments in urine, their association with kidney function and disease etiology in 16,027 subjects, using mass spectrometry based peptidomics data from the Human Urinary Proteome/Peptidome Database. Twenty-three different urinary peptides originating from complement proteins C3, C4 and factor B (CFB) could be identified. Most C3-derived peptides showed inverse association with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), while the majority of peptides derived from CFB demonstrated positive association with eGFR. Several peptides derived from the complement proteins C3, C4 and CFB were found significantly associated with specific kidney disease etiologies. These peptides may depict disease-specific complement activation and could serve as non-invasive biomarkers to support development of complement interventions through assessing complement activity for patients’ stratification and monitoring of drug impact. Further investigation of these complement peptides may provide additional insight into disease pathophysiology and could possibly guide therapeutic decisions, especially when targeting complement factors.

Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma is an uncommon and highly aggressive biliary tract malignancy with few manifestations until late disease stages. Diagnosis is currently achieved through a combination of clinical, biochemical, radiological and histological techniques. A number of reported cancer biomarkers have the potential to be incorporated into diagnostic pathways, but all lack sufficient sensitivity and specificity limiting their possible use in screening and early diagnosis. The limitations of standard serum markers such as CA19-9, CA125 and CEA have driven researchers to identify multiple novel biomarkers, yet their clinical translation has been slow with a general requirement for further validation in larger patient cohorts. We review recent advances in the diagnostic pathway for suspected CCA as well as emerging diagnostic biomarkers for early detection, with a particular focus on non-invasive approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biliary tract cancers (BTCs) are rare and highly heterogenous malignant neoplasms. Because obtaining BTC tissues is challenging, the purpose of this study was to explore the potential roles of bile as a liquid biopsy medium in patients with BTC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty-nine consecutive patients with suspected BTC were prospectively enrolled in this study. Capture-based targeted sequencing was performed on tumor tissues, whole blood cells, plasma, and bile samples using a large panel consisting of 520 cancer-related genes. RESULTS Of the 28 patients enrolled in this cohort, tumor tissues were available in eight patients, and plasma and bile were available in 28 patients. Somatic mutations were detected in 100% (8/8), 71.4% (20/28), and 53.6% (15/28) of samples comprising tumor tissue DNA, bile cell-free DNA (cfDNA), and plasma cfDNA, respectively. Bile cfDNA showed a significantly higher maximum allele frequency than plasma cfDNA (P = 0.0032). There were 56.2% of somatic single-nucleotide variant (SNVs)/insertions and deletions (indels) shared between bile and plasma cfDNA. When considering the genetic profiles of tumor tissues as the gold standard, the by-variant sensitivity and positive predictive value for SNVs/indels in bile cfDNA positive for somatic mutations were both 95.5%. The overall concordance for SNVs/indels in bile was significantly higher than that in plasma (99.1% versus 78.3%, P < 0.0001). Moreover, the sensitivity of CA 19-9 combined with bile cfDNA achieved 96.4% in BTC diagnosis. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that bile cfDNA was superior to plasma cfDNA in the detection of tumor-related genomic alterations. Bile cfDNA as a minimally invasive liquid biopsy medium might be a supplemental approach to confirm BTC diagnosis.

Abstract
Capillary electrophoresis coupled online with mass detection is a modern tool for analyzing wide ranges of compounds in complex samples, including urine. Capillary electrophoresis with mass spectrometry allows the separation and identification of various analytes spanning from small ions to high molecular weight protein complexes. Similarly to the much more common liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry techniques, the capillary electrophoresis separation reduces the complexity of the mixture of analytes entering the mass spectrometer resulting in reduced ion suppression and a more straightforward interpretation of the mass spectrometry data. This review summarizes capillary electrophoresis with mass spectrometry studies published between the years 2017 and 2021, aiming at the determination of various compounds excreted in urine. The properties of the urine, including its diagnostical and analytical features and chemical composition, are also discussed including general protocols for the urine sample preparation. The mechanism of the electrophoretic separation and the instrumentation for capillary electrophoresis with mass spectrometry coupling is also included. This review shows the potential of the capillary electrophoresis with mass spectrometry technique for the analyses of different kinds of analytes in a complex biological matrix. The discussed applications are divided into two main groups (capillary electrophoresis with mass spectrometry for the determination of drugs and drugs of abuse in urine and capillary electrophoresis with mass spectrometry for the studies of urinary metabolome).

Abstract
Simple Summary In this study, the application of capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry enabled identification of 31 urinary peptides significantly associated with hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis and prognosis. Further assessment of these peptides lead to prediction of cellular proteases involved in their development namely Meprin A subunit α and Kallikrein-6. Subsequent identification of the proteases was verified by immunohistochemistry in normal liver, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Histopathological assessment of the proteases revealed numerical gradient staining signifying their involvement in liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma formation. The discovered urinary peptides offered a potential noninvasive tool for diagnosis and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is known to be associated with protein alterations and extracellular fibrous deposition. We investigated the urinary proteomic profiles of HCC patients in this prospective cross sectional multicentre study. 195 patients were recruited from the UK (Coventry) and Germany (Hannover) between 1 January 2013 and 30 June 2019. Out of these, 57 were HCC patients with a background of liver cirrhosis (LC) and 138 were non-HCC controls; 72 patients with LC, 57 with non-cirrhotic liver disease and 9 with normal liver function. Analysis of the urine samples was performed by capillary electrophoresis (CE) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS). Peptide sequences were obtained and 31 specific peptide markers for HCC were identified and further integrated into a multivariate classification model. The peptide model demonstrated 79.5% sensitivity and 85.1% specificity (95% CI: 0.81–0.93, p < 0.0001) for HCC and 4.1-fold increased risk of death (95% CI: 1.7–9.8, p = 0.0005). Proteases potentially involved in HCC progression were mapped to the N- and C-terminal sequence motifs of the CE-MS peptide markers. In silico protease prediction revealed that kallikrein-6 (KLK6) elicits increased activity, whilst Meprin A subunit α (MEP1A) has reduced activity in HCC compared to the controls. Tissue expression of KLK6 and MEP1A was subsequently verified by immunohistochemistry.

Abstract
Background Liver fibrosis is a consequence of chronic inflammation and is associated with protein changes within the hepatocytes structure. In this study, we aimed to investigate if this is reflected by the urinary proteome and can be explored to diagnose liver fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. Methods In a multicentre combined cross-sectional and prospective diagnostic test validation study, 129 patients with varying degrees of liver fibrosis and 223 controls without liver fibrosis were recruited. Additionally, 41 patients with no liver, but kidney fibrosis were included to evaluate interference with expressions of kidney fibrosis. Urinary low molecular weight proteome was analysed by capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass spectrometry (CE-MS) and a support vector machine marker model was established by integration of peptide markers for liver fibrosis. Findings CE-MS enabled identification of 50 urinary peptides associated with liver fibrosis. When combined into a classifier, LivFib-50, it separated patients with liver fibrosis (N = 31) from non-liver disease controls (N = 123) in cross-sectional diagnostic phase II evaluation with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.94 (95% confidence intervals (CI): 0.89–0.97, p<0.0001). When adjusted for age, LivFib-50 demonstrated an AUC of 0.94 (95% CI: 0.89–0.97, p<0.0001) in chronic liver disease patients with (N = 19) or without (N = 17) liver fibrosis progression. In this prospective diagnostic phase III validation set, age-adjusted LivFib-50 showed 84.2% sensitivity (95% CI: 60.4–96.6) and 82.4% specificity (95% CI: 56.6–96.2) for detection of liver fibrosis. The sequence-identified peptides are mainly fragments of collagen chains, uromodulin and Na/K-transporting ATPase subunit γ. We also identified ten putative proteolytic cleavage sites, eight were specific for matrix metallopeptidases and two for cathepsins. Interpretation In liver fibrosis, urinary peptides profiling offers potential diagnostic markers and leads to discovery of proteolytic sites that could be targets for developing anti-fibrotic therapy.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 infection results in a mild-to-moderate disease course in most patients, allowing outpatient self-care and quarantine. However, in approx. 10% of cases a two- or three-phasic critical disease course with starting from day 7 to 10 is observed. To facilitate and plan outpatient care, biomarkers prognosing such worsening at an early stage appear of outmost importance. In this accelerated article, we report on the identification of urinary peptides significantly associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection, and the development of a multi-marker urinary peptide based test, COVID20, that may enable prognosis of critical and fatal outcomes in COVID-19 patients. COVID20 is composed of 20 endogenous peptides mainly derived from various collagen chains that enable differentiating moderate or severe disease from critical state or death with 83% sensitivity at 100% specificity. Based on the performance in this pilot study, testing in a prospective study on 1000 patients has been initiated. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) and pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) may lead to the development of extrahepatic obstructive cholestasis. However, biliary stenoses can also be caused by benign conditions, and the identification of their etiology still remains a clinical challenge. We performed metabolomic and proteomic analyses of bile from patients with benign (n = 36) and malignant conditions, CCA (n = 36) or PDAC (n = 57), undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography with the aim of characterizing bile composition in biliopancreatic disease and identifying biomarkers for the differential diagnosis of biliary strictures. Comprehensive analyses of lipids, bile acids and small molecules were carried out using mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR) in all patients. MS analysis of bile proteome was performed in five patients per group. We implemented artificial intelligence tools for the selection of biomarkers and algorithms with predictive capacity. Our machine-learning pipeline included the generation of synthetic data with properties of real data, the selection of potential biomarkers (metabolites or proteins) and their analysis with neural networks (NN). Selected biomarkers were then validated with real data. We identified panels of lipids (n = 10) and proteins (n = 5) that when analyzed with NN algorithms discriminated between patients with and without cancer with an unprecedented accuracy.

Abstract
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive disease of the bile ducts that usually results in chronic liver disease often requiring liver transplantation. Endoscopy remains crucial to the care of these patients, although magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography has replaced endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) as the primary imaging modality for diagnosis. For detection of dysplasia or cholangiocarcinoma, ERCP with intraductal sampling remains compulsory. Moreover, dominant strictures play an important part in the disease development, and management by balloon dilatation or stenting could contribute to long-term prognosis. In addition, endoscopy offers management for adverse events such as bile leaks and anastomotic strictures after liver transplantation. Finally, the special phenotype of inflammatory bowel disease associated with PSC as well as the frequent occurrence of portal hypertension mandates close follow-up with colonoscopy and upper endoscopy. With the emergence of novel techniques, the endoscopist remains a key member of the multidisciplinary team caring for PSC patients.
