AI hybrid survival assessment for advanced heart failure patients with renal dysfunction. Nat Commun 2024; 15:6756. [PMID: 39117613 PMCID: PMC11310499 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-50415-9] [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: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Renal dysfunction (RD) often characterizes the worse course of patients with advanced heart failure (AHF). Many prognosis assessments are hindered by researcher biases, redundant predictors, and lack of clinical applicability. In this study, we enroll 1736 AHF/RD patients, including data from Henan Province Clinical Research Center for Cardiovascular Diseases (which encompasses 11 hospital subcenters), and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. We developed an AI hybrid modeling framework, assembling 12 learners with different feature selection paradigms to expand modeling schemes. The optimized strategy is identified from 132 potential schemes to establish an explainable survival assessment system: AIHFLevel. The conditional inference survival tree determines a probability threshold for prognostic stratification. The evaluation confirmed the system's robustness in discrimination, calibration, generalization, and clinical implications. AIHFLevel outperforms existing models, clinical features, and biomarkers. We also launch an open and user-friendly website www.hf-ai-survival.com , empowering healthcare professionals with enhanced tools for continuous risk monitoring and precise risk profiling.

Abstract
Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAD) is among the most prevalent chronic diseases globally. Circadian rhythm disruption (CRD) is closely associated with the progression of various diseases. However, the precise role of CRD in the development of CAD remains to be elucidated. The Circadian rhythm disruption score (CRDscore) was employed to quantitatively assess the level of CRD in CAD samples. Our investigation revealed a significant association between high CRDscore and adverse prognosis in CAD patients, along with a substantial correlation with CAD progression. Remarkably distinct CRDscore distributions were also identified among various subtypes. In summary, we have pioneered the revelation of the relationship between CRD and CAD at the single-cell level and established reliable markers for the development, treatment, and prognosis of CAD. A deeper understanding of these mechanisms may offer new possibilities for incorporating "the therapy of coronary heart disease based circadian rhythm" into personalized medical treatment regimens.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a serious inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. As the traditional diagnostic techniques have various limitations in the practice and diagnosis of early ulcerative colitis, it is necessary to develop new diagnostic models from molecular biology to supplement the existing methods. In this study, we developed a machine learning-based synthesis to construct an artificial intelligence diagnostic model for ulcerative colitis, and the correctness of the model is verified using an external independent dataset. According to the significantly expressed genes related to the occurrence of UC in the model, an unsupervised quantitative ulcerative colitis related score (UCRScore) based on principal coordinate analysis was established. The UCRScore is not only highly generalizable across UC bulk cohorts at different stages, but also highly generalizable across single-cell datasets, with the same effect in terms of cell numbers, activation pathways and mechanisms. As an important role of screening genes in disease occurrence, based on connectivity map analysis, 5 potential targeting molecular compounds were identified, which can be used as an additional supplement to the therapeutic of UC. Overall, this study provides a potential tool for differential diagnosis and assessment of bio-pathological changes in UC at the macroscopic level, providing an opportunity to optimize the diagnosis and treatment of UC.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction dominates coronary artery disease mortality. Identifying bio-signatures for plaque destabilization and rupture is important for preventing the transition from coronary stability to instability and the occurrence of thrombosis events. This computational systems biology study enrolled 2,235 samples from 22 independent bulks cohorts and 14 samples from two single-cell cohorts. A machine-learning integrative program containing nine learners was developed to generate a warning classifier linked to atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability signature (APVS). The classifier displays the reliable performance and robustness for distinguishing ST-elevation myocardial infarction from chronic coronary syndrome at presentation, and revealed higher accuracy to 33 pathogenic biomarkers. We also developed an APVS-based quantification system (APVSLevel) for comprehensively quantifying atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability, empowering early-warning capabilities, and accurate assessment of atherosclerosis severity. It unraveled the multidimensional dysregulated mechanisms at high resolution. This study provides a potential tool for macro-level differential diagnosis and evaluation of subtle genetic pathological changes in atherosclerosis.

Abstract
As one of the most prevalent heritable cardiovascular diseases, dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) induces cardiac insufficiency and dysfunction. Although genetic mutation has been identified one of the causes of DCM, the usage of genetic biomarkers such as RNAs for DCM early diagnosis is still being overlooked. In addition, the alternation of RNAs could reflect the progression of the diseases, as an indicator for the prognosis of patients. Therefore, it is beneficial to develop genetic based diagnostic tool for DCM. RNAs are often unstable within circulatory system, leading to the infeasibility for clinical application. Recently discovered exosomal miRNAs have the stability that is then need for diagnostic purpose. Hence, fully understanding of the exosomal miRNA within DCM patients is vital for clinical translation. In this study, we employed the next generation sequencing based on the plasma exosomal miRNAs to comprehensively characterize the miRNAs expression in plasma exosomes from DCM patients exhibiting chronic heart failure (CHF) compared to healthy individuals. A complex landscape of differential miRNAs and target genes in DCM with CHF patients were identified. More importantly, we discovered that 92 differentially expressed miRNAs in DCM patients undergoing CHF were correlated with several enriched pathways, including oxytocin signalling pathway, circadian entrainment, hippo signalling pathway-multiple species, ras signalling pathway and morphine addiction. This study reveals the miRNA expression profiles in plasma exosomes in DCM patients with CHF, and further reveal their potential roles in the pathogenesis of it, presenting a new direction for clinical diagnosis and management of DCM patients with CHF.

Identification of potential resistance mechanisms and therapeutic targets for the relapse of BCMA CAR-T therapy in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma through single-cell sequencing. Exp Hematol Oncol 2023; 12:44. [PMID: 37158921 PMCID: PMC10165782 DOI: 10.1186/s40164-023-00402-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/10/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND BCMA CAR-T is highly effective for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma(R/R-MM) and significantly improves the survival of patients. However, the short remission time and high relapse rate of MM patients treated with BCMA CAR-T remain bottlenecks that limit long-term survival. The immune microenvironment of the bone marrow (BM) in R/R-MM may be responsible for this. The present study aims to present an in-depth analysis of resistant mechanisms and to explore potential novel therapeutic targets for relapse of BCMA CAR-T treatment via single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of BM plasma cells and immune cells. METHODS This study used 10X Genomic scRNA-seq to identify cell populations in R/R-MM CD45+ BM cells before BCMA CAR-T treatment and relapse after BCMA CAR-T treatment. Cell Ranger pipeline and CellChat were used to perform detailed analysis. RESULTS We compared the heterogeneity of CD45+ BM cells before BCMA CAR-T treatment and relapse after BCMA CAR-T treatment. We found that the proportion of monocytes/macrophages increased, while the percentage of T cells decreased at relapse after BCMA CAR-T treatment. We then reclustered and analyzed the alterations in plasma cells, T cells, NK cells, DCs, neutrophils, and monocytes/macrophages in the BM microenvironment before BCMA CAR-T treatment and relapse after BCMA CAR-T treatment. We show here that the percentage of BCMA positive plasma cells increased at relapse after BCMA CAR-T cell therapy. Other targets such as CD38, CD24, SLAMF7, CD138, and GPRC5D were also found to be expressed in plasma cells of the R/R-MM patient at relapse after BCMA CAR-T cell therapy. Furthermore, exhausted T cells, TIGIT+NK cells, interferon-responsive DCs, and interferon-responsive neutrophils, increased in the R/R-MM patient at relapse after BCMA CAR-T cell treatment. Significantly, the proportion of IL1βhi Mφ, S100A9hi Mφ, interferon-responsive Mφ, CD16hi Mφ, MARCO hi Mφ, and S100A11hi Mφ significantly increased in the R/R-MM patient at relapse after BCMA CAR-T cell therapy. Cell-cell communication analysis indicated that monocytes/macrophages, especially the MIF and APRIL signaling pathway are key players in R/R-MM patient at relapse after BCMA CAR-T cell therapy. CONCLUSION Taken together, our data extend the understanding of intrinsic and extrinsic relapse of BCMA CAR-T treatment in R/R-MM patient and the potential mechanisms involved in the alterations of antigens and the induced immunosuppressive microenvironment, which may provide a basis for the optimization of BCMA CAR-T strategies. Further studies should be performed to confirm these findings.

[PMID: 37091151 PMCID: PMC10113630 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1169395] [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: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 04/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Identifying Kidney Renal Papillary Cell Carcinoma (KIRP) patients with high-risk, guiding individualized diagnosis and treatment of patients, and identifying effective prognostic targets are urgent problems to be solved in current research on KIRP. Methods In this study, data of multi omics for patients with KIRP were collected from TCGA database, including mRNAs, lncRNAs, miRNAs, data of methylation, and data of gene mutations. Data of multi-omics related to prognosis of patients with KIRP were selected for each omics level. Further, multi omics data related to prognosis were integrated into cluster analysis based on ten clustering algorithms using MOVICS package. The multi omics-based cancer subtype (MOCS) were compared on biological characteristics, immune microenvironmental cell abundance, immune checkpoint, genomic mutation, drug sensitivity using R packages, including GSVA, clusterProfiler, TIMER, CIBERSORT, CIBERSORT-ABS, quanTIseq, MCPcounter, xCell, EPIC, GISTIC, and pRRophetic algorithms. Results The top ten OS-related factors for KIRP patients were annotated. Patients with KIRP were divided into MOCS1, MOCS2, and MOCS3. Patients in the MOCS3 subtype were observed with shorter overall survival time than patients in the MOCS1 and MOCS2 subtypes. MOCS1 was negatively correlated with immune-related pathways, and we found global dysfunction of cancer-related pathways among the three MOCS subtypes. We evaluated the activity profiles of regulons among the three MOCSs. Most of the metabolism-related pathways were activated in MOCS2. Several immune microenvironmental cells were highly infiltrated in specific MOCS subtype. MOCS3 showed a significantly lower tumor mutation burden. The CNV occurrence frequency was higher in MOCS1. As for treatment, we found that these MOCSs were sensitive to different drugs and treatments. We also analyzed single-cell data for KIRP. Conclusion Based on a variety of algorithms, this study determined the risk classifier based on multi-omics data, which could guide the risk stratification and medication selection of patients with KIRP.
