Skeletal muscle as a molecular and cellular biomarker of disease progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis:a narrative review

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a fatal multisystemic neurodegenerative disease with motor neurons being a primary target.Although progressive weakness is a hallmark feature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis,there is considerable heterogeneity,including clinical presentation,progression,and the underlying triggers for disease initiation.Based on longitudinal studies with families harboring amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated gene mutations,it has become apparent that overt disease is preceded by a prodromal phase,possibly in years,where compensatory mechanisms delay symptom onset.Since 85-90%of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is sporadic,there is a strong need for identifying biomarkers that can detect this prodromal phase as motor neurons have limited capacity for regeneration.Current Food and Drug Administration-approved therapies work by slowing the degenerative process and are most effective early in the disease.Skeletal muscle,including the neuromuscular junction,manifests abnormalities at the earliest stages of the disease,before motor neuron loss,making it a promising source for identifying biomarkers of the prodromal phase.The accessibility of muscle through biopsy provides a lens into the distal motor system at earlier stages and in real time.The advent of“omics”technology has led to the identification of numerous dysregulated molecules in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis muscle,ranging from coding and non-coding RNAs to proteins and metabolites.This technology has opened the door for identifying biomarkers of disease activity and providing insight into disease mechanisms.A major challenge is correlating the myriad of dysregulated molecules with clinical or histological progression and understanding their relevance to presymptomatic phases of disease.There are two major goals of this review.The first is to summarize some of the biomarkers identified in human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis muscle that have a clinicopathological correlation with disease activity,evidence of a similar dysregulation in the SOD1G93A mouse during presymptomatic stages,and evidence of progressive change during disease progression.The second goal is to review the molecular pathways these biomarkers reflect and their potential role in mitigating or promoting disease progression,and as such,their potential as therapeutic targets in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Hypothetical hypoxia-driven rapid disease progression in hepatocellular carcinoma post transarterial chemoembolization:A case report

BACKGROUND Transarterial chemoembolization(TACE)is widely performed for intermediatestage or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC),but approximately half of patients do not respond to TACE treatment.We describe a case of rapidly progressing of HCC after TACE and provide a possible hypothesis for this condition.The finding may contribute to identifying patients who obtain less benefit from TACE,thus avoiding the unnecessary waste of medical resources and treatment during the golden hour window.CASE SUMMARY A 61-year-old woman had been diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B infection and HCC at Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B,which had been treated by segmental hepatectomy 14 mo ago.The tumor recurred in the two months after surgery.She received an initial TACE and then underwent systemic therapy with lenvatinib 8 mg daily due to an increased level of alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)after the first TACE.However,the tumor continued to progress with an increased level of AFP,and she underwent a second TACE,after which the tumor volume did not obviously decrease on the contrast-enhanced computed tomography image.One month later,she had a third TACE to control the residual HCC tumors.Two weeks after that,the HCC had increased dramatically with tea-colored urine and yellowish skin turgor.Eventually,the patient refused further treatment and went into hospice care.CONCLUSION Intense hypoxia induced by TACE can trigger rapid disease progression in infiltrative HCC patients with a large tumor burden.

Prediction for risk of disease progression among hospitalized COVID-19 patients

Objective:The COVID-19 pandemic poses a significant threat to global health.Given the lack of studies on risk factors for COVID-19 progression at present,this study aimed to build a predictive model to predict the progression risk among hospitalized COVID-19 patients.Methods:We extracted data from 1074 mild and moderate COVID-19 patients from Electronic Health Records(EHRs)in a designated Wuhan hospital including demographic characteristics and clinical and laboratory information.Disease progression was defined as progressing to severe critical illness after admission.The LASSO regression was used to select the predicted variables and a logistic regression model was applied to build the predictive model.Nomogram was used to show the results.Results:Seven variables were included in the predictive model:age per 10 years(OR,1.15;95%CI,1.03-1.29),lactate dehydrogenase(OR,1.73;95%CI,1.14-2.62),neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(OR,2.07;95%CI,1.42-3.02),eosinophil count(OR,2.10;95%CI,1.20-3.69),albumin(OR,2.37;95%CI,1.65-3.45),hemoglobin(OR,1.50;95%CI,1.10-2.05),D-dimer(OR,1.63;95%CI,1.19-2.23).The mean area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the predictive model was 0.72(95%CI,0.69-0.76).Conclusions:This study built a predictive model that could effectively predict the progression risk among hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

Locomotor analysis identifies early compensatory changes during disease progression and subgroup classification in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a motoneuron degenerative disease that is challenging to diagnose and presents with considerable variability in survival.Early identification and enhanced understanding of symptomatic patterns could aid in diagnosis and provide an avenue for monitoring disease progression.Use of the m SOD1 G93 A mouse model provides control of the confounding environmental factors and genetic heterogeneity seen in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients,while investigating underlying disease-induced changes.In the present study,we performed a longitudinal behavioral assessment paradigm and identified an early hindlimb symptom,resembling the common gait abnormality foot drop,along with an accompanying forelimb compensatory mechanism in the m SOD1 G93 A mouse.Following these initial changes,m SOD1 mice displayed a temporary hindlimb compensatory mechanism resembling an exaggerated steppage gait.As the disease progressed,these compensatory mechanisms were not sufficient to sustain fundamental locomotor parameters and more severe deficits appeared.We next applied these initial findings to investigate the inherent variability in B6 SJL m SOD1 G93 A survival.We identified four behavioral variables that,when combined in a cluster analysis,identified two subpopulations with different disease progression rates：a fast progression group and a slow progression group.This behavioral assessment paradigm,with its analytical approaches,provides a method for monitoring disease progression and detecting m SOD1 subgroups with different disease severities.This affords researchers an opportunity to search for genetic modifiers or other factors that likely enhance or slow disease progression.Such factors are possible therapeutic targets with the potential to slow disease progression and provide insight into the underlying pathology and disease mechanisms.

Multiple sclerosis：integration of modeling with biology,clinical and imaging measures to provide better monitoring of disease progression and prediction of outcome

Multiple Sclerosis（MS） is a major cause of neurological disability in adults and has an annual cost of approximately $28 billion in the United States. MS is a very complex disorder as demyelination can happen in a variety of locations throughout the brain; therefore, this disease is never the same in two patients making it very hard to predict disease progression. A modeling approach which combines clinical, biological and imaging measures to help treat and fight this disorder is needed. In this paper, I will outline MS as a very heterogeneous disorder, review some potential solutions from the literature, demonstrate the need for a biomarker and will discuss how computational modeling combined with biological, clinical and imaging data can help link disparate observations and decipher complex mechanisms whose solutions are not amenable to simple reductionism.

The brain compensatory mechanisms and Alzheimer's disease progression:a new protective strategy

Compensatory/adaptive mechanisms in the brain are hy- pothesized to be involved in its protection from the Alz- heimer＇s disease （AD） progression. These mechanisms are activated by malfunctioning of various brain systems： anti- oxidant, neurotrophic, neurotransmitter, immune, and oth- ers. Detailed analysis of compensatory^adaptive capabilities of these systems might be a start point for further discovery and development of perspective approaches for early diag- nostics and treatment of AD and associated neurodegenera- tive disorders.

Deep learning model based on PET/CT and combination with Cox proportional hazard model for predicting progression of lung invasive adenocarcinoma after surgery

Objective To observe the efficacy of deep learning(DL)model based on PET/CT and its combination with Cox proportional hazard model for predicting progressive disease(PD)of lung invasive adenocarcinoma within 5 years after surgery.Methods The clinical,PET/CT and 5-year follow-up data of 250 patients with lung invasive adenocarcinoma were retrospectively analyzed.According to PD or not,the patients were divided into the PD group(n=71)and non-PD group(n=179).The basic data and PET/CT findings were compared between groups,among which the quantitative variables being significant different between groups were transformed to categorical variables using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and corresponding cut-off value.Multivariant Cox proportional hazard model was used to select independent predicting factors of PD of lung invasive adenocarcinoma within 5 years after surgery.The patients were divided into training,validation and test sets at the ratio of 6∶2∶2,and PET/CT data in training set and validation set were used to train model and tuning parameters to build the PET/CT DL model,and the combination model was built in serial connection of DL model and the predictive factors.In test set,the efficacy of each model for predicting PD of lung invasive adenocarcinoma within 5 years after surgery was assessed and compared using the area under the curve(AUC).Results Patients'gender and smoking status,as well as the long diameter,SUV max and SUV mean of lesions measured on PET images,the long diameter,short diameter and type of lesions showed on CT were statistically different between groups(all P<0.05).Smoking(HR=1.787[1.053,3.031],P=0.031)and lesion SUV max>4.15(HR=5.249[1.062,25.945],P=0.042)were both predictors of PD of lung invasive adenocarcinoma within 5 years after surgery.In test set,the AUC of PET/CT DL model for predicting PD was 0.847,of the combination model was 0.890,of the latter was higher than of the former(P=0.036).Conclusion DL model based on PET/CT had high efficacy for predicting PD of lung invasive adenocarcinoma within 5 years after surgery.Combining with Cox proportional hazard model could further improve its predicting efficacy.

Treatment of refractory anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 anbibody-positive dermatomyositis complicated by rapidly progressing interstitial pulmonary disease:Two case reports

BACKGROUND Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody-positive(anti-MDA5 Ab+)dermatomyositis complicated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease(anti-MDA5 Ab+DM-RP-ILD)has an unclear underlying mechanism with no recommended unified treatment plan.Herein,one of the cases that we report(Case 2)was successfully treated with tocilizumab despite having lung infection.CASE SUMMARY Case 1 was a 30-year-old woman who was admitted due to recurrent rash for 5 mo,fever and cough for 1 mo,and chest tightness for 3 d.She was diagnosed with non-myopathic dermatomyositis(anti-MDA5 Ab+)and interstitial pneumonia,and was treated with the combination of hormone therapy and cyclophosphamide followed by oral tacrolimus.Case 2 was a 31-year-old man admitted due to systemic rash accompanied by muscle weakness of limbs for more than 1 mo,and chest tightness and dry cough for 4 d.He was diagnosed with dermatomyositis(anti-MDA5 Ab+)and acute interstitial pneumonia with Pneumocystis jirovecii and Aspergillus fumigatus infections and was treated with hormone therapy(without cyclophosphamide)and the combination of tocilizumab and tacrolimus.The condition of both patients eventually improved and they were discharged and showed clinically stable condition at the latest follow-up.CONCLUSION Tocilizumab could be a salvage treatment for patients with anti-MDA5 Ab+DMRP-ILD who are refractory to intensive immunosuppression.

Striatal oxidative damages and neuroinflammation correlate with progression and survival of Lewy body and Alzheimer diseases

Neurodegenerative diseases are a class of chronic and complex disorders featuring progressive loss of neurons in distinct brain areas.The mechanisms responsible for the disease progression in neurodegeneration are not fully illustrated.In this observational study,we have examined diverse biochemical parameters in the caudate and putamen of patients with Lewy body diseases(LBDs)and Alzheimer disease(AD),shedding some light on the involvement of oxidative damage and neuroinflammation in advanced neurodegeneration.We performed Spearman and Mantel-Cox analyses to investigate how oxidative stress and neuroinflammation exert comprehensive effects on disease progression and survival.Disease progression in LBDs correlated positively with poly(ADP-Ribose)and triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cell 2 levels in the striatum of LBD cohorts,indicating that potential parthanatos was a dominant feature of worsening disease progression and might contribute to switching microglial inflammatory phenotypes.Disease progression in AD corresponds negatively with 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine(8-oxo-d G)and myeloperoxidase concentrations in the striatum,suggesting that possible mitochondria dysfunction may be involved in the progression of AD via a mechanism ofβ-amyloid entering the mitochondria and subsequent free radicals generation.Patients with lower striatal 8-oxo-d G and myeloperoxidase levels had a survival advantage in AD.The age of onset also affected disease progression.Tissue requests for the postmortem biochemistry,genetics,and autoradiography studies were approved by the Washington University Alzheimer's Disease Research Center(ADRC)Biospecimens Committee(ethics approval reference number:T1705,approval date:August 6,2019).Recombinant DNA and Hazardous Research Materials were approved by the Washington University Environmental Health&Safety Biological Safety Committee(approval code:3739,approval date:February 25,2020).Radioactive Material Authorization was approved by the Washington University Environmental Health&Safety Radiation Safety Committee(approval code:1056,approval date:September 18,2019).

Neuroflament light and heterogeneity of disease progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis:development and validation of a prediction model to improve interventional trials

Background:Interventional trials in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)sufer from the heterogeneity of the disease as it considerably reduces statistical power.We asked if blood neuroflament light chains(NfL)could be used to antici‑pate disease progression and increase trial power.Methods:In 125 patients with ALS from three independent prospective studies-one observational study and two interventional trials-we developed and externally validated a multivariate linear model for predicting disease pro‑gression,measured by the monthly decrease of the ALS Functional Rating Scale Revised(ALSFRS-R)score.We trained the prediction model in the observational study and tested the predictive value of the following parameters assessed at diagnosis:NfL levels,sex,age,site of onset,body mass index,disease duration,ALSFRS-R score,and monthly ALSFRS-R score decrease since disease onset.We then applied the resulting model in the other two study cohorts to assess the actual utility for interventional trials.We analyzed the impact on trial power in mixed-efects models and compared the performance of the NfL model with two currently used predictive approaches,which anticipate disease progression using the ALSFRS-R decrease during a three-month observational period(lead-in)or since disease onset(ΔFRS).Results:Among the parameters provided,the NfL levels(P<0.001)and the interaction with site of onset(P<0.01)contributed signifcantly to the prediction,forming a robust NfL prediction model(R=0.67).Model application in the trial cohorts confrmed its applicability and revealed superiority over lead-in andΔFRS-based approaches.The NfL model improved statistical power by 61%and 22%(95%confdence intervals:54%-66%,7%-29%).Conclusion:The use of the NfL-based prediction model to compensate for clinical heterogeneity in ALS could signif‑cantly increase the trial power.NCT00868166,registered March23,2009;NCT02306590,registered December 2,2014.

Comparison of cognitive and UHDRS measures in monitoring disease progression in Huntington’s disease: a 12-month longitudinal study

Progressive cognitive decline is a feature of Huntington’s disease(HD),an inherited neurodegenerative movement disorder.Comprehensive neuropsychological testing is the‘gold standard’to establish cognitive status but is often impractical in time-constrained clinics.The study evaluated the utility of brief cognitive tests(MMSE and MoCA),UHDRS measures and a comprehensive neuropsychological tests battery in monitoring short-term disease progression in HD.Twenty-two manifest HD patients and 22 matched controls were assessed at baseline and 12-month.A linear mixed-effect model showed that although the HD group had minimal change in overall global cognition after 12 months,they did show a significant decline relative to the control group.The controls exhibited a practice effect in most of the cognitive domain scores over time.Cognitive decline at 12-month in HD was found in the executive function domain but the effect of this on global cognitive score was masked by the improvement in their language domain score.The varying practice effects by cognitive domain with repeated testing indicates the importance of comparing HD patients to control group in research trials and that cognitive progression over 12 months in HD should not be judged by changes in global cognitive score.The three brief cognitive tests effectively described cognition of HD patients on cross-sectional analysis.The UHDRS cognitive component,which focuses on testing executive function and had low variance over time,is a more reliable brief substitute for comprehensive neuropsychological testing than MMSE and MoCA in monitoring cognitive changes in HD patients after 12 months.

Location-based prediction model for Crohn’s disease regarding a novel serological marker,anti-chitinase 3-like 1 autoantibodies

BACKGROUND Defective neutrophil regulation in inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is thought to play an important role in the onset or manifestation of IBD,as it could lead to damage of the intestinal mucosal barrier by the infiltration of neutrophils in the inflamed mucosa and the accumulation of pathogens.Like neutrophils in the context of innate immune responses,immunoglobulin A(IgA)as an acquired immune response partakes in the defense of the intestinal epithelium.Under normal conditions,IgA contributes to the elimination of microbes,but in connection with the loss of tolerance to chitinase 3-like 1(CHI3L1)in IBD,IgA could participate in CHI3L1-mediated improved adhesion and invasion of potentially pathogenic microorganisms.The tolerance brake to CHI3L1 and the occurrence of IgA autoantibodies to this particular target,the exact role and underlying mechanisms of CHI3L1 in the pathogenesis of IBD are still unclear.AIM To determine the predictive potential of Ig subtypes of a novel serological marker,anti-CHI3L1 autoantibodies(aCHI3L1)in determining the disease phenotype,therapeutic strategy and long-term disease course in a prospective referral cohort of adult IBD patients.METHODS Sera of 257 Crohn’s disease(CD)and 180 ulcerative colitis(UC)patients from a tertiary IBD referral center of Hungary(Division of Gastroenterology,Department of Internal Medicine,Faculty of Medicine,University of Debrecen)were assayed for IgG,IgA,and secretory IgA(sIgA)type aCHI3L1 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using recombinant CHI3L1,along with 86 healthy controls(HCONT).RESULTS The IgA type was more prevalent in CD than in UC(29.2%vs 11.1%)or HCONT(2.83%;P<0.0001 for both).However,sIgA subtype aCHI3L1 positivity was higher in both CD and UC patients than in HCONT(39.3%and 32.8%vs 4.65%,respectively;P<0.0001).The presence of both IgA and sIgA aCHI3L1 antibodies was associated with colonic involvement(P<0.0001 and P=0.038,respectively)in patients with CD.Complicated disease behavior at sample procurement was associated with aCHI3L1 sIgA positivity(57.1%vs 36.0%,P=0.009).IgA type aCH3L1 was more prevalent in patients with frequent relapse during the disease course in the CD group(46.9%vs 25.7%,P=0.005).In a group of patients with concomitant presence of pure inflammatory luminal disease and colon involvement at the time of diagnosis,positivity for IgA or sIgA type aCH3L1 predicted faster progression towards a complicated disease course in time-dependent models.This association disappeared after merging subgroups of different disease locations.CONCLUSION CHI3L1 is a novel neutrophil autoantigenic target in IBD.The consideration of antibody classes along with location-based prediction may transform the future of serology in IBD.

Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor modifications: a promising strategy to delay the progression of Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer＇s disease （AD）, a fatal, progressive, neurodegener- ative disorder, is the most common cause of old-age demen- tia, accounting for 50-75% of dementia patients. Early stages of AD are marked by vocabulary shrinkage, spatial disori- entation, depression, apraxia, and deterioration of recent forms of declarative memory. In course of time, the patients require close supervision due to the loss of cognitive and functional abilities, and at the terminal stages of the disease, all forms of memory are severely impaired with the patients needing nursing home care （World Alzheimer Report, 2013）.

Factors contributing to clinical picture and progression of Huntington's disease

Huntington’s disease（HD）is an autosomal dominant,monogenic,progressive,neurodegenerative and rare disease with a frequency of10 per 100,000 in the Caucasian population and occurring more rarely in other races（Squitieri et al.,1994）.HD is,nevertheless,one of the most frequently and extensively studied diseases of those caused by a dynamic mutation.The HD mutation is located on the short arm of the 4th chromosome within the HTT gene.

Potential therapeutic interventions based on the role of the endoplasmic reticulum stress response in progressive neurodegenerative diseases

In 1945,Porter et al.published an electon microscopy study of cultured chick fibroblasts in which they observed：＇a granular background and details of a darker lacelike reticulum which in places appears to be made up of chains of＂vesicles＂＇（Porter et al.,1945）.This constituted the first published observation of the endoplasmic reticulum（ER）and,while it was not evident at that time,this cytoplasmic system of interconnecting membrane-lined channels, comprising vesicles, tubules and cisternae, has numerous important functions.

Transforming growth factor β1-mediated anti-inflammation slows progression of midbrain dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease?

Parkinson’s disease（PD）is characterized by the progressive loss of midbrain dopaminergic（m DA）neurons and a subsequent decrease in striatal dopamine levels,which cause the typical clinical motor symptoms such as muscle rigidity,bradykinesia and tremor.

Analysis of the Current Situation and Influencing Factors of Psychosocial Adaptation of Hemodialysis Patients

Objective:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of psychosocial adaptation of hemodialysis patients,and to provide a reference basis for the development of nursing interventions.Methods:435 hemodialysis patients from the hemodialysis centers of three tertiary A hospitals in Xi’an City were conveniently selected from April to August 2023,and were investigated using the General Information Questionnaire,the Psychosocial Adaptation to Disease Scale,the Fear of Disease Progression Simplification Scale,and the Personal Sense of Control Scale.Results:The psychosocial adaptation score of hemodialysis patients was(56.68±18.32);the results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that marital status,the form of payment for medical expenses,work status,degree of self-care in daily life,number of co-morbid chronic illnesses,fear of disease progression,and sense of personal mastery were the main influencing factors of psychosocial adaptation of hemodialysis patients.Conclusion:The psychosocial adaptation of hemodialysis patients is at the level of severe maladaptation,and healthcare professionals should formulate scientific and reasonable nursing intervention programs according to their influencing factors to enhance their psychosocial adaptation.
