AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to find diagnostic biomarkers for pediatric immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) using proteomic techniques in children.
- Researchers analyzed protein expression using a 4D-DIA approach, leading to the identification of 55 different proteins in the ITP group, with MMP-9 and THBS1 showing significant differences.
- Validation through ELISA and ROC curves confirmed that MMP-9 was elevated and THBS1 was decreased in ITP patients, indicating their potential as biomarkers for ITP diagnosis but requiring more research.
Article Abstract
To use proteomic techniques to identify sensitive diagnostic biomarkers for paediatric immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). We selected children in ITP and control groups, using a four-dimensional data-independent acquisition approach (4D-DIA) to analyse its protein expression. The significantly differentially expressed proteins were selected for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) validation in a cohort comprising 50 samples (13 healthy controls, 15 secondary thrombocytopenia controls and 22 children with ITP). Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) were generated to diagnose ITP and to assess the diagnostic effectiveness of this approach. Compared with the control group, 55 differentially expressed proteins (43 increased and 12 decreased) were determined in the ITP group. Matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) and thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) were significantly expressed and selected for ELISA. The verification outcomes aligned with the findings from the proteomic examinations. In contrast to the control cohort, the ITP subjects exhibited markedly elevated plasma MMP-9 levels and reduced plasma THBS1 concentrations. Additionally, the ROC curves indicated the diagnostic value of these biomarkers. In conclusion, proteomics facilitates identifying the sensitive biomarkers for ITP diagnosis. We have preliminarily selected two differentially expressed proteins, MMP-9 and THBS1, whose potential role as biomarkers for diagnosing ITP requires further research.

Background: Bioinformatics analysis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) expression profiles can aid in understanding its molecular mechanisms and identifying new targets for diagnosis and treatment.
Aim: In this study, we analyzed expression profile datasets and miRNA expression profiles related to HCC from the GEO using R software to detect differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRs).
Methods And Results: Common DEGs were identified, and a PPI network was constructed using the STRING database and Cytoscape software to identify hub genes.

The study by Cao aimed to identify early second-trimester biomarkers that could predict gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) development using advanced proteomic techniques, such as Isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Their analysis revealed 47 differentially expressed proteins in the GDM group, with retinol-binding protein 4 and angiopoietin-like 8 showing significantly elevated serum levels compared to controls. Although these findings are promising, the study is limited by its small sample size ( = 4 per group) and lacks essential details on the reproducibility and reliability of the protein quantification methods used.

Oil palm () yield is impacted by abiotic stresses, leading to significant economic losses. To understand the core abiotic stress transcriptome (CAST) of oil palm, we performed RNA-Seq analyses of oil palm leaves subjected to drought, salinity, waterlogging, heat, and cold stresses. A total of 19,834 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is recognized as a significant risk factor for glaucoma; however, the molecular mechanisms through which hyperglycemia affects TM function remain unclear. This study investigated the impact of high glucose on gene expression in human TM (HTM) cells to uncover pathways that contribute to TM dysfunction and glaucoma pathogenesis under diabetic conditions.

However, whether and how lncRNAs and m A coordinately regulate resistance remain elusive. Here, we show that many differentially expressed lncRNAs enrich m A, and more lncRNAs tend to have higher m A content in CML cells resistant to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).
