Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid assessment facilitates precision medicine for lung cancer

Lung cancer is the most common and fatal malignant disease worldwide and has the highest mortality rate among tumor-related causes of death.Early diagnosis and precision medicine can significantly improve the survival rate and prognosis of lung cancer patients.At present,the clinical diagnosis of lung cancer is challenging due to a lack of effective non-invasive detection methods and biomarkers,and treatment is primarily hindered by drug resistance and high tumor heterogeneity.Liquid biopsy is a method for detecting circulating biomarkers in the blood and other body fluids containing genetic information from primary tumor tissues.Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)is a potential liquid biopsy medium that is rich in a variety of bioactive substances and cell components.BALF contains information on the key characteristics of tumors,including the tumor subtype,gene mutation type,and tumor environment,thus BALF may be used as a diagnostic supplement to lung biopsy.In this review,the current research on BALF in the diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of lung cancer is summarized.The advantages and disadvantages of different components of BALF,including cells,cell-free DNA,extracellular vesicles,and micro RNA are introduced.In particular,the great potential of extracellular vesicles in precision diagnosis and detection of drug-resistant for lung cancer is highlighted.In addition,the performance of liquid biopsies with different body fluid sources in lung cancer detection are compared to facilitate more selective studies involving BALF,thereby promoting the application of BALF for precision medicine in lung cancer patients in the future.

Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid metagenomic next-generation sequencing assay for identifying pathogens in lung cancer patients

Background:For patients with lung cancer,timely identification of new lung lesions as infectious or non-infectious,and accurate identification of pathogens is very important in improving OS of patients.As a new auxiliary examination,metagenomic next-generation sequencing(mNGS)is believed to be more accurate in diagnosing infectious diseases in patients without underlying diseases,compared with conventional microbial tests(CMTs).We designed this study tofind out whether mNGS has better performance in distinguishing infectious and non-infectious diseases in lung cancer patients using bronchoalveolar lavagefluid(BALF).Materials and Methods:This study was a real-world retrospective review based on electronic medical records of lung cancer patients with bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL)and BALF commercial mNGS testing as part of clinical care from 1 April 2019 through 30 April 2022 at The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University.164 patients were included in this study.Patients were categorized into the pulmonary non-infectious disease(PNID)group(n=64)and the pulmonary infectious disease(PID)group(n=100)groups based onfinal diagnoses.Results:BALF mNGS increased the sensitivity rate by 60%compared to CMTs(81%vs.21%,p<0.05),whereas there was no significant difference in specificity(75%vs.98.4%,p>0.1).Among the patients with PID,bacteria were the most common cause of infection.Fungal infections occurred in 32%of patients,and Pneumocystis Yersini was most common.Patients with Tyrosine kinase inhibitors(TKIs)therapy possess longer overall survival(OS)than other anti-cancer agents,the difference between TKIs and immuno-checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)was insignificant(median OS TKIs vs.ICIs vs.Anti-angiogenic vs.Chemo vs.Radiotherapy=76 vs.84 vs.61 vs.58 vs.60).Conclusions:our study indicates that BALF mNGS can add value by improving overall sensitivity in lung cancer patients with potential pulmonary infection,and was outstanding in identifying Pneumocystis infection.It could be able to help physicians adjust the follow-up treatment to avoid the abuse of antibiotics.

Conclusion: Lung lavage via fiber bronchoscope combined with non-invasive positive pressure ventilation can effectively optimize the arterial blood gas levels, reduce systemic inflammatory stress state and protect the myocardial function of patients with COPD complicated by severe pneumonia.

Five-Year Survivors of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with Positive Pleural Lavage Cytology

Background: The pleural lavage cytology (PLC) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has been reported as a significant prognostic factor. The aim of this study is to clarify the clinicopathological characteristics of 5-year survivors of patients with positive PLC. Methods: Among 401 resected NSCLC patients, 30 (7.48%) patients with positive PLC were reviewed retrospectively. Results: Only 7 of 30 patients (23.3%) survived more than 5-year. There were no differences in age, gender, histology, pT status and pN status between 5-year survivors and non-survivors. On the other hand, the serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level was significantly higher in non-survivors. Among these 5-year survivors, 4 of 7 patients died of NSCLC recurrences more than 5 years after surgery. Remaining 3 patients survived without cancer recurrences. Interestingly these 3 survivors had not received any adjuvant therapies after surgery. Conclusion: None of the 5-year survivor with positive PLC had high serum CEA level. Furthermore 5-year survival did not equal to cure in NSCLC patients with positive PLC.

Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Cytology in the Diagnosis of Lung Tumors and Contribution to the Classification of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Entities:A Retrospective Clinocopathological Study

Background: Due to new therapeutic options in thoracic oncology, the pathological diagnosis of bronchial carcinoma has become more challenging. The majority of bronchial cancer is diagnosed from small biopsy specimens and the diagnosis often based on cytological methods. Aims: In this study, we reevaluated cytologic specimens in order to determine the diagnostic reliability of pulmonary cytopathologic techniques performed in our department. Material and methods: In our center bronchial lavage/bronchoalveolar lavage (BL/BAL) specimens are obtained both before and after forceps biopsy (FB) and subsequently processed. Retrospective data from a period of 60 months were retrieved from the institutional files. Sensitivity, specificity, as well as accuracy of cytological tumor typing were determined using histopathology of FB as gold standard. Also, the diagnostic yield of BL/BAL before and after FB was determined. Results: 678 cases were retrieved from the institutional files. The sensitivity and specificity of cytology were 83.0% and 83.4%, respectively. By FB in 3.9% of cytologically diagnosed non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC) a histological assignment to a NSCLC entity was not possible. Conclusions: Cytology is a reliable diagnostic tool in the diagnosis of lung malignancies. High diagnostic accuracy is achieved by a combination of BL/BAL before and after FB. The diagnostic yield of BL/BAL after FB was significantly higher than BL/BAL before FB. Subsequent tumor typing of cytologically diagnosed NSCLC was feasible in more than 95% of cases.

Biochemical Assessment of Acute Lung Injury Induced by Hexavalent Chromium Compound

Acute pulmonary injury triggered by sodium chromate (Na 2CrO 4) and it′s recovery duration were evaluated by analysing the biochemical responses in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids(BALF) in Sprague Dawley rats. The animals of five groups that received single intratracheal instillations of Na 2CrO 4 suspension at doses of 0.008, 0.04, 0.20, 0.98 and 4.88 mg·kg -1 body wt respectively were killed at d 2 after treatment in the dose response experiment. The animals of seven groups that received the instillations of 0.98 mg·kg -1 Na 2CrO 4 were sacrificed at d 2, 4, 7, 10, 14, 21 and 28 separately after exposure in the time course experiment. The biochemical indicators examined in the BALF included N acetyl β D glucosaminidase (NAG), gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), α 1 antitripsin(A1AT), albumin (Alb) and lysozyme(LYS). Based on the present findings, it was found that no effect dose and threshold dose of Na 2CrO 4 were 0.008 and 0.04 mg·kg -1 respectively and that the majority of biochemical parameters in the BALF showed the dose dependent and significant increases at dosed of ≥0.20 mg·kg -1 . And at the severe intoxication dose ≥0.98 mg·kg -1 all parameter values could significantly be increased, which lasted about 1 week and the recovery duration needed at least 4 weeks. The present study indicates that ≥0.98 mg·kg -1 Na 2CrO 4 can result in acute lung injury including pulmonary cyto biomembrane damage, diffuse alveolitis and edema, and that NAG, LYS, ALP, Alb and ACE are probably the valuable and early sensitive indicators for evaluating the injury after exposure to lower dose Na 2CrO 4 (<0.98 mg·kg -1 ).

THE DETECTION AND CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF hEGF AND β＿2－MG IN BALF OF PATIENTS WITH LUNG CANCER

Human epidermal growth factor (hEGF) and β2-Microglohulin(β2-MG) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and serum were detected in 74 patients with lung cancer and 76 patients with benign lung disease. The results showed that the positive rates or both hEGF (58.1%) and β2-MG (62. 2%) in BALF of the affected side of lung cancer were higher than those of either the healthy side of lung cancer or benign lung disease (P<0.05), and also higher than that in serum.The level of BALF-hEGF was highest in squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma, and it was higher in stages Ⅲ, Ⅳ than in stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ. The combinative detection or hEGF and β2-MG in BALF and serum will he valuable to early diagnosis of lung cancer.

Role of Active Principles of Podophyllum hexandrum in Amelioration of Radiation Mediated Lung Injuries by Reactive Oxygen/Nitrogen Species Reduction

Radiation induced reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) are reported to cause lung injuries such as pneumonitis and fibrosis which may be fatal at times. Current study is designed to analyse the radioprotective efficacy of P. hexandrum active principles (G-002M) on lungs of mice exposed to high dose of gamma irradiation (7 Gy). Cellular profiles and inflammatory cell infiltrates of irradiated bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) have shown correlations with lung pathology. Cell counts were determined in BALF of control, 7 Gy radiation exposed and radiation with G-002M pretreated mice. ROS/Nitric Oxide (NO) production was measured by 2,7?dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) and diaminofluorescein diacetate (DAF-2DA) through microscopy and flow cytometry respectively. Immunostaining of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in BALF cells and lung sections was also observed microscopically. iNOS ex- pression was observed in lungs by western blotting. BALF was also processed to estimate total protein, LDH, and phospholipids content. Catalase, reduced Glutathione (GSH), Glutathione reductase (GR) and lipid peroxidation were estimated in lung tissues. Pre-administration of G-002M significantly decreased radiation mediated neutrophils count in BALF of irradiated mice. ROS generation, iNOS expression, total protein, LDH and phospholipids were found less affected in G-002M pretreated group in comparison to radiation alone group. Radiation exposure to mice was found apparently leading to parenchymal fibrosis, an architectural distortion of the lung tissue with edema, infiltration of inflammatory blood cells with increased immunolabeling of iNOS. G-002M pretreatment significantly countered radiation mediated increased lipid peroxidation and decreased GR, catalase and GSH in mice. Current study demonstrates possible role of P. hexandrum (G-002M) in minimizing lung damage induced by radiation mediated ROS/RNS generation.

Role of PMN in the lung injury following cardiopulmonary bypass

Objective： To explore the role of polymorphonuclear neutrophils （PMN） activation in lung injury following cardiopulmonary bypass （CPB）. Methods： Twenty four cases of patients with rheumatic heart disease were enrolled in this study to detect the situation of PMN activation and the degree of lung injury. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF） and blood samples were collected just after anaesthesia and 4 h postoperatively. Related clinic data were recorded. Results： This cohort included 4 male and 20 female with age ranging from 29 to 69 years old, and body mass from 37 to 73 kg. Mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was （106.46±33.58） rain, mean cross clamp time was （77.58_＋28.02） rain, and mean mechanical ventilation time was （24.17±30.90） h. Postoperative PaO2/FiO2 decreased significantly than that during preoperation （P=0.000）. The postoperative WBC counts in peripheral blood and in BALF were both increased significantly than those during preoperation. And the postoperative rates of PMN in BALF were also increased significantly. Postoperative neutriphil elastase （NE） and myeloperoxidase （MPO） released from inflammatory ceils were increased significantly （P=0.000） both in plasma and BALF. The postoperative yon Willebrand factor （vWF） concentration in plasma was also increased significantly （P=0.000）. The postoperative concentration of sLPI in plasma was decreased, whereas it was increased significantly in BALF. Furthermore, there was a negative correlation between NE and PaO2/FiO2 both in BALF and in plasma. A negative correlation was present between vWF in plasma and PaO2/FiO2. A positive correlation was found between sLPI in plasma and PaO2/FiO2. Conclusion： PMN is recruited and activated after CPB and released large quantity of proteases, and lead to lung injury, sLPI is an important protective factor against inflammatory injury.
