Identification and validation of a novel autoantibody biomarker panel for differential diagnosis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by Metoboroghene O. Mowoe, Metoboroghene O. Mowoe, Hisham Allam, Joshua Nqada, Marc Bernon, Karan Gandhi, Sean Burmeister, Urda Kotze, Miriam Kahn, Christo Kloppers, Suba Dharshanan, Zafirah Azween, Pamela Maimela, Paul Townsend, Eduard Jonas, Jonathan M. Blackburn, Jonathan M. Blackburn

“…Autoantibodies (AAbs) in principle make attractive biomarkers as they arise early in disease, report on disease-associated perturbations in cellular proteomes, and are static in response to other common stimuli, yet are measurable in the periphery, potentially well in advance of the onset of clinical symptoms.MethodsHere, we used high-throughput, custom cancer antigen microarrays to identify a clinically relevant autoantibody biomarker combination able to differentially detect PDAC. …”

Extracellular vesicles from fifth-stage larval Angiostrongylus cantonensis upregulate cholesterol biosynthesis and suppress NLRP2-associated inflammatory responses in mouse astrocy... by Chien-Ju Cheng, Lian-Chen Wang, Lichieh Julie Chu, Kuang-Yao Chen, Ching-Yun Huang, Kuo-Lun Lan, Kuo-Yang Huang

“…Ultrastructural features showed that EVs from adult worms are smaller in size compared with those from L5. Proteomic analysis identified stage-specific proteins packaged in L5 and adult worm EVs. …”

The HFA‐PEFF score identifies ‘early‐HFpEF’ phenogroups associated with distinct biomarker profiles by Michiel T.H.M. Henkens, Anne‐Mar vanOmmen, Sharon Remmelzwaal, Gideon B. Valstar, Ping Wang, Job A.J. Verdonschot, Mark R. Hazebroek, Leonard Hofstra, Vanessa P.M. vanEmpel, Joline W.J. Beulens, Hester M. denRuijter, Stephane R.B. Heymans

“…The aims of this pilot study are to (i) identify distinct phenogroups by cluster analysis of HFA‐PEFF domain scores in subjects that present with HF‐like symptoms and (ii) study whether these phenogroups may be associated with distinct blood proteome profiles. Methods and results Subjects referred to the Cardiology Centers of the Netherlands, location Utrecht, with non‐acute possibly cardiac‐related symptoms (such as dyspnoea or fatigue) were prospectively enrolled in the HELPFul cohort (N = 507) and were included in the current analysis. …”

Eizirik, Maria Asuncion Martínez‐Brocca, Marta Vives‐Pi, Benoit R. Gauthier

“…Cell subpopulations were then treated or not with BL001, a pharmacological agonist of LRH‐1/NR5A2, and processed for: (1) Cell surface marker profiling, (2) cytokine secretome profiling, (3) autologous T‐cell proliferation, (4) RNAseq and (5) proteomic analysis. BL001‐target gene expression levels were confirmed by quantitative PCR. …”
