Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and a method and use thereof. In the present disclosure, based on bioinformatics analysis, a key diagnostic marker ribonucleotide reductase M2 (RRM2) for liver fibrosis is found. An expression level of RRM2 in serum of a patient to be tested can be detected to allow diagnosis of a stage of fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B. Compared with liver fibrosis indexes APRI, FIB-4, and M2BPGi, RRM2 has high diagnostic efficiency, and can allow staging diagnosis of fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B in which an alanine transaminase (ALT) level is normal or abnormal. The detection technique established by the present disclosure can be used to determine a course of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B. In addition, the diagnostic marker disclosed in the present disclosure may be used to prepare a reagent or a kit for diagnosing liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B or monitoring progression of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and can also be used to prepare an antiviral drug.
Description
DESCRIPTION LU504821
DIAGNOSTIC MARKER FOR LIVER FIBROSIS IN PATIENT WITH HEPATITIS B, AND
METHOD AND USE THEREOF
The present disclosure relates to the fields of biotechnology and medicine, and in particular to a diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and a use thereof.
It is well known that hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced hepatopathy is one of the main sources for immune liver diseases. In addition, chronic hepatitis B (CHB) contributes to the development of immune-mediated liver damage, thereby leading to progressive liver fibrosis or liver cirrhosis. Apparently, patients with hepatitis B are at a relatively high risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBV is a partially double-stranded DNA virus that infects liver cells and replicates in nuclei. In patients with hepatitis B, HBV clearance and liver damage are primarily induced by adaptive immune responses. Due to a medical burden caused by a large population of patients with hepatitis B in China, dynamic real-time monitoring should be adopted to control the progression of fibrosis.
Alanine transaminase (ALT) activity is an important reference index for treatment selection and prognosis evaluation of patients with hepatitis B. However, serum ALT levels are not always consistent with a state of liver damage. 37% of patients with hepatitis B in which an ALT level is normal have significant fibrosis and inflammation.
Currently, many patients with hepatitis B in which an ALT level is normal often miss the optimal antiviral therapy opportunity during routine examination. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find novel promising biomarkers.
The traditional liver fibrosis staging mainly relies on detection of a histopathologic, serum marker, or imaging method, but a gold standard of the staging is still liver histopathological examination with a pathological tissue acquired through liver biopsy.
Although the traditional pathological examination has a specified accuracy, the traditional pathological examination is an invasive means, which brings various inconveniences to patients, and even causes complications and sequelae such as bleeding and infection.
Compared with pathological examination, the development of serum markers facilitates,594g24 the staging diagnosis of liver fibrosis and leads to stable results. The widespread use of liver damage markers ALT and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) indicates a potential of serological markers in staging of liver fibrosis. Therefore, the search of effective non-invasive clinical serological markers is urgently needed to monitor the progression of liver fibrosis.
Ribonucleotide reductase (RR) is a multisubunit enzyme, which is a key enzyme for
DNA synthesis and repair, and plays a key role in regulation of an overall rate of DNA synthesis. An active RR complex consists of R1 and R2 subunits of a polymer, namely,
RRM1 and RRM2. Studies have shown that an increase in RRM2 activity is associated with malignant transformation, cancer cell growth, tumorigenesis, and HBV DNA replication.
RRM2 is often expressed in a disease-specific manner and thus has a potential to be a biomarker. At present, the relevant content of RRM2 in liver fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B still needs to be further investigated, and the exploration of a role of RRM2 in the occurrence and development of liver fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B is conducive to the exploration of novel biomarkers for diagnosis of liver fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B or markers for monitoring treatment responses, which plays an important role in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of liver fibrosis in patients with hepatitis B.
An objective of the present disclosure is to provide a diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and a use thereof. The present disclosure proposes that RRM2 can be used as a diagnostic marker for staging of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and an expression level of RRM2 in serum of a patient to be tested can be detected to allow early diagnosis for a patient with hepatitis B. The diagnostic marker provided in the present disclosure has excellent specificity, and can accurately identify a fibrosis stage of a patient with CHB in which an ALT level is normal or abnormal. The present disclosure has advantages such as reliability and supportability, and can allow rapid screening of liver fibrosis in a patient with CHB.
To solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides the following technical solutions: A diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B is provided, where the diagnostic marker is RRM2.
A diagnostic method using the diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient witfh,504821 hepatitis B described above is provided, where an expression level of RRM2 in serum of a patient with hepatitis B is detected to identify a stage of liver fibrosis in the patient with hepatitis B.
A use of the diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B described above in preparation of a reagent or a kit for diagnosing a stage of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B is provided.
In the use, the reagent or kit includes RRM2.
A use of the diagnostic marker for liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B described above in preparation of a drug for preventing or treating liver fibrosis in a patient with
CHB is provided.
In the use, the drug includes RRM2.
Compared with the prior art, the present disclosure proposes that RRM2 can be used as a diagnostic marker for staging of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and an expression level of RRM2 in serum of a patient to be tested can be detected to allow early diagnosis of liver fibrosis for a patient with hepatitis B. The diagnostic marker provided in the present disclosure has excellent specificity, and can accurately identify a fibrosis stage of a patient with CHB in which an ALT level is normal or abnormal. The diagnostic marker of the present disclosure has high sensitivity, standards for a detection level of the diagnostic marker are easily formulated, and a detection method of the diagnostic marker is simple, has high diagnostic efficiency and guaranteed reliability, and can allow rapid screening of liver fibrosis in a patient with CHB.

Expression Omnibus (GEO) (https://www.ncbi.nim.nih.gov/) database for analysis. An "ssGSEA" package was used to calculate an ssGSEA immune score for each patient and conduct clustering analysis. In addition, a distribution of 29 immune components in immune-associated subtypes was analyzed.
Experimental results were shown in FIG. 1. The results in FIG. 1 showed that the 124 patients with hepatitis B exhibited three different immune states (Immunity_H,
Immunity_M, and Immunity_L) during evaluation of the immune components, where levels of the 29 immune components in the Immunity_H group were higher than those in the Immunity_L group.
Example 2 Construction and functional enrichment analysis of key modules in a PPI network log fold change (FC)|>1 and P < 0.05 were used by the inventors of the present disclosure as standards for differential expression analysis among immune subtypes. To investigate an interaction between differential genes, the PPI network was generated through the STRING database (https://string-db.org/), and a minimum interaction score was 0.900. In Cytoscape software, an MCODE plugin was used to identify a key module.
Experimental results were shown in FIG. 2. The results in FIG. 2 showed that 391 differential genes were detected, a PPI network with 181 nodes and 1,206 edges was generated, and two key modules were identified.
Example 3 Association analysis of a module key gene RRM2 and fibrosis grading,504824 and staging
Grouping was conducted according to staging and grading, and expression levels of serum RRM2 in patients at different stages and grades in GSE84044 were subjected to differential analysis.
Experimental results were shown in FIG. 3. The results in FIG. 3 showed that RRM2 was positively correlated with a fibrosis grade and stage.
Example 4 Association analysis of serum RRM2 with a liver fibrosis stage
Blood samples were collected by the inventors of the present disclosure from 317, 146, and 179 patients with hepatitis B in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical
University (FAHWMU), the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (SAHWMU), and the First People's Hospital of Zunyi (FPHZ), respectively. Liver biopsy was conducted for each patient, and a liver tissue sample with a length of at least 2.0 cm was collected. The research of the present disclosure was approved by ethics committees of all centers; all patients signed written informed consent forms; and all experiments were consistent with principles of the Declaration of Helsinki (DoH).
A fibrosis stage of each liver sample acquired through liver biopsy was evaluated according to Ishak fibrosis scores (FO: no fibrosis; F = 3: significant fibrosis; and F = 5: liver cirrhosis). A blood sample was centrifuged at 1,000 g for 20 min in a 4°C centrifuge, and then upper serum was collected and stored at -80°C. Relevant clinical indexes such as age, sex, body mass index (BMI), ALT, AST, alkaline phosphatase (ALP),
Platelet (PLT), and HBV DNA of the patients with hepatitis B were measured.
Relevant clinical characteristics of the patients with hepatitis B were shown in Tab|@,504824 1.

Table 1
A serum RRM2 level in each patient with hepatitis B was quantitatively determined with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. Specific experimental steps were as follows: (a): Standard wells and a sample well were set. 50 uL of a standard was added to each of the standard wells at different concentrations. (b): 50 uL of a sample to be tested was added to the sample well, and no sample was added to a blank well. (c): 100 uL of a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled detection antibody was added to each one of the standard wells and the sample well other than the blank well, reaction wells were sealed with a sealing film, and an ELISA plate was incubated in a water bath or incubator at 37°C for 60 min. (d): A liquid in each well was discarded, the ELISA plate was pat-dried on absorbent paper, each well was filled with a washing liquid (350 pL) and allowed to stand for 1 min, the washing liquid was removed, and the ELISA plate was pat-dried on absorbent paper; and this washing process was repeated 5 times (the ELISA plate may be washed with a plate washer). LU504821 (e): 50 uL of each of substrates A and B was added to each well, and the ELISA plate was incubated at 37°C in the dark for 15 min. (f): 50 pL of a stop solution was added to each well, and within 15 min, an OD value of each well was determined at a wavelength of 450 nm. (9): With an OD value of a tested standard as x-coordinate and a concentration value of a standard as y-coordinate, a standard curve was plotted on coordinate paper or with related software, and a linear regression equation was acquired; and an OD value of a sample was substituted into the equation to calculate a concentration of the sample. (h): The correlation between an RRM2 level and a stage was analyzed.
Experimental results were shown in FIG. 4. The results in FIG. 4 showed that, with an increase in a stage of liver fibrosis, a serum RRM2 level in a patient with hepatitis B in which an ALT level was normal or abnormal gradually increased.
Example 5 Diagnostic values of serum RRM2, APRI, FIB-4, and M2BPGi
An ELISA kit was used by the inventors of the present disclosure to quantitatively determine serum RRM2 and M2BPGi levels in a patient with hepatitis B in which an ALT level was normal or abnormal, and experimental steps were the same as in Example 4.
APRI and FIB-4 scores are calculated according to the following formulas, respectively:
APRI = (AST/upper normal value/PLT count (10%L)) x 100; and
FIB-4 = (age x AST)/(PLT count (10%L) x ALT?)
The diagnostic values of serum RRM2, APRI, FIB-4, and M2BPGi were evaluated through receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
Results of the diagnostic values of serum RRM2, APRI, FIB-4, and M2BPGi wefg,504821 shown in Table 2.

Table 2
It can be seen from Table 2 that, in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical
University (FAHWMU), the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (SAHWMU), and the First People's Hospital of Zunyi (FPHZ), compared with APRI,
FIB-4, and M2BPGi, serum RRM2 has a high AUC value, that is, RRM2 can well diagnose a stage of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B.
Example 6 Correlation analysis of immune checkpoints between an RRM2 loW,504821 expression group and an RRM2 high expression group
A low-risk group and a high-risk group were divided by the inventors of the present disclosure according to a median serum RRM2 value in each cohort. PD-L1, CTLA4, and
LAGS in each group were then detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Specific steps were as follows:
RNA of each of PD-L1, CTLA4, and LAG3 in serum was extracted with a Trizol kit of
Thermo, and a concentration of the extracted RNA was determined by a nucleic acid quantification instrument, which needed to make an A260/280 ratio be 1.8 to 2.0. cDNA was then synthesized with a RevertAid First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit of Thermo.
An FASTA sequence of PD-L1 was as follows: >NM_001267706.2 Homo sapiens CD274 molecule (CD274), transcript variant 2, mRNA.

An SYBR Green method was used to conduct real-time fluorescent quantitative
PCR. With GAPDH as an internal reference gene, PD-L1, CTLA4, and LAG3-specific
RT-PCR primers were used to conduct real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR to obtain relative expression levels of PD-L1, CTLA4, and LAG3.
PD-L1: RT-PCR forward primer sequence (F: CATTTGCTGAACGCCCCATA) and reverse primer sequence (R: TGTCCAGATGACTTCGGCCT).
CTLA4: RT-PCR forward primer sequence (F: CCATGGACACGGGACTCTAC) and reverse primer sequence (R: GGGCTTCTTTTCTTTAGCAATTACA).
LAG3: RT-PCR forward primer sequence (F: CAGCTCCCGCTCTTCCATC) and reverse primer sequence (R: AATCGTCTTGGTCGCCACTTC).
GAPDH: forward primer sequence (F: GCTAGGGACGGCCTGAAG) and reverse primer sequence (R: GCCCAATACGACCAAATCCGT).
A real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR system was 20 pL in total, including: 10 uL of SYBR Green Realtime PCR Master Mix, 0.5 pL of a forward primer (10 uM), 0.5 uL of a reverse primer (10 uM), 1 uL of cDNA, and the balance of ddH2O.
A reaction system prepared according to the above system was placed in a 7500504821
Fast quantitative PCR System instrument to conduct PCR, and a PCR procedure was shown in Table 3: me ee mem

Table 3
Real time-PCR experimental result analysis: The analysis was conducted with software in the 7500 Fast quantitative PCR System instrument, and analysis results were expressed as mean + standard deviation (SD). The GraphpadPrism software was used to analyze the data differences among different samples and plot a curve (the student T-test was used to statistically analyze a difference between two groups of samples; and P < 0.05, indicating that the difference was statistically significant).
Experimental results were shown in FIG. 5. The results in FIG. 5 showed that a patient with hepatitis B in which an RRM2 level was high was associated with high immune checkpoint levels (PD-L1, CTLA4, and LAG3), that is, a patient with CHB in which an RRM2 level was high may benefit from immunotherapy.
The results in the above examples show that, in the present disclosure, based on bioinformatics analysis, a key diagnostic marker RRM2 for liver fibrosis is found. An expression level of RRM2 in serum of a patient to be tested can be detected to allow diagnosis of a stage of fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B. Compared with liver fibrosis indexes APRI, FIB-4, and M2BPGi, RRM2 has high diagnostic efficiency, and can allow staging diagnosis of fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B in which an ALT level is normal or abnormal.
In summary, in the present disclosure, RRM2 is used as a diagnostic marker for staging of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and an expression level of RRM2 in serum of a patient to be tested is detected to allow early diagnosis for a patient with hepatitis B.
The diagnostic marker provided in the present disclosure has excellent specificity, 594821 and can accurately identify a fibrosis stage of a patient with hepatitis B in which an ALT level is normal or abnormal.
The diagnostic marker of the present disclosure has high sensitivity, standards for a detection level of the diagnostic marker are easily formulated, and a detection method of the diagnostic marker is simple, has high diagnostic efficiency and guaranteed reliability, and can allow rapid screening of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B.
The detection technique established by the present disclosure can be used to determine a course of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B.
In addition, the diagnostic marker disclosed in the present disclosure may be used to prepare a reagent or a kit for diagnosing liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B or monitoring progression of liver fibrosis in a patient with hepatitis B, and can also be used to prepare an antiviral drug.
