Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a subset of brain biomarkers for determining Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), a method for screening a biological sample from a subject to determine whether the subject is suffering from traumatic brain injury, and an assay and kit for determining whether a subject is suffering from TBI.
  • TBI Traumatic Brain Injury
  • the brain is the major organ of the nervous system of all vertebrates and most invertebrates, acting to control a complex network of cell types and organs that coordinate motor output in response to sensory input.
  • the brain is the main sensory processor of the central nervous system (CNS), directing electrochemical signal impulses via the spinal cord to effector cells, such as muscles and glands, to generate a physiological response to a given environmental stimulus.
  • CNS central nervous system
  • effector cells such as muscles and glands
  • Communication between the CNS and effector cells is achieved via the peripheral nervous system (PNS), which comprises a network of nerves capable of conducting electrochemical signals.
  • Neurons are one of the primary cell types found in the brain, whilst collections of tightly bundled neurons and associated connective tissue make up the structure of nerves of the nervous system.
  • Neurons comprise an organelle-containing cell body and two types of extending fibres: dendrites, which conduct electrochemical signals towards the cell body; and axons, which conduct electrochemical signals away from the cell body to synaptic terminals.
  • dendrites which conduct electrochemical signals towards the cell body
  • axons which conduct electrochemical signals away from the cell body to synaptic terminals.
  • Axon are enclosed in an insulting layer of Schwann cells termed the myelin sheath and typically terminate at synaptic terminals which in turn communicate with other neurons or target cells via neurotransmitters released by the synapse.
  • the brain is protected by a layered structure in the form of bone, membrane and fluid which acts to minimise any possible damage.
  • the brain is encased in an outer layer of bone termed the skull or cranium, which provides protection against impact.
  • the dura mater, arachnoid membrane and pia mater three membranous layers termed the dura mater, arachnoid membrane and pia mater, known collectively as the meninges, provide a further lining for the brain.
  • the dura mater is situated as the outermost membranous layer, whilst the pia mater directly encloses the brain.
  • the arachnoid membrane is situated between the dura mater and pia mater. Further cushioning and immunological protection for the brain is provided by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a clear liquid found within the subarachnoid space between the arachnoid mater and pia mater.
  • CSF cerebrospinal fluid
  • a specialised network of closely-located capillaries termed the blood-brain barrier acts to ensure only certain molecules are able to pass into the brain.
  • Intracranial injury also known as TBI
  • TBI Intracranial injury
  • TBI is defined by the Demographics and Clinical Assessment Working Group of the International and Interagency Initiative towards Common Data Elements for Research on TBI and Psychological Health as 'an alteration in brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force'.
  • TBI injury There is a prevalence of TBI injury to males of 3:1 , with violence associated with between 7-10% of TBI in civilian practice. Trauma is the leading cause of mortality in the under-35 ages group in England and Wales, with head injury said to account for half of trauma deaths. In Europe, the annual aggregate incidence of hospitalised and fatal TBI has been estimated at approximately 235 per 100,000 people, whilst in the USA there were 403/100,000 Emergency Department visits for TBI per annum and
  • TBI Although the rate of TBI is reducing in the young, the global incidence of TBI is increasing. Possible reasons for this include increased global use of motor vehicles, and the increasingly elderly nature of the general population suffering head injuries as a result of falls. In recent times, there has been renewed focus of the effect of TBI as a result of deployed military personnel sustaining head trauma as a consequence of exposure to explosive blasts. Indeed, it has been suggested that mild TBI is a novel signature injury for British and American troops deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. In general, four types of blast injury have been described in relation to deployed
  • primary blast injuries relating to the over-pressure, also termed shock wave
  • secondary blast injury relating to primary and secondary fragments
  • tertiary blast injuries relating to the blast wind, also termed dynamic over-pressure
  • quaternary blast injuries relating to other injury mechanism
  • GSC Glasgow Coma Scale
  • CT Computerised Tomography
  • MRI Magnetic Resonance Imaging
  • EEG Electroencephalogram
  • ICP Intra-Cranial Pressure
  • a possible solution to determining TBI is to screen a biological sample, such as CSF or blood, for biomarkers indicative of TBI.
  • the term 'biomarker' as used herein is a biological characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biological processes, pathological processes or responses to a therapeutic intervention.
  • Biomarkers can be physical or biochemical measurements which can be used as a validated substitute for a clinical endpoint. Examples of biomarkers include certain cell types, proteins (for example enzymes, hormones, antibodies), gene products, genes or molecules that may indicate normal or abnormal biological processes or states.
  • Clinical screening for biomarkers may offer advantages that include earlier diagnosis of disease severity, allowing better prognostication and prediction of outcomes, and enable monitoring of on-going pathological processes and therapeutic interventions. Examples of biomarkers already used in other pathologies include Troponin-I after myocardial infarction or Prostate Specific Antigen in prostate cancer.
  • Biomarkers of TBI could potentially offer a high sensitivity and specificity for brain injury, if suitable biomarkers could be identified and assessed. Certain biomarkers may only be released after irreversible destruction of brain tissue, which could provide a good measure of TBI. Furthermore, biomarkers could allow for: better initial assessment of both mild and severe head injury in isolated head and polytrauma patients; monitoring of disease progression; and success of therapy (Neumar, R.W. (2002) Rule out TBI? Serum markers for traumatic brain injury. Ann Emerg Med, 39, 342-343;
  • biomarker of head injury Many attempts have been made to find a biomarker of head injury.
  • potential biomarkers such as Creatine Kinase, Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein, Lactate Dehydrogenase, Myelin Basic Protein and S100 protein have all been studied to varying degrees of success (Ingebrigtsen, T. & Romner, B. (2002) Biochemical serum markers of traumatic brain injury. J Trauma, 52, 798-808; Kochanek, P.M. et al. (2008)

  • a method for screening a biological sample from a subject to determine whether the subject is suffering from TBI comprising the steps of measuring the concentration of an axonal-associated neuronal biomarker and a dendritic-associated neuronal biomarker; and comparing the concentration of each biomarker with a respective control threshold concentration; wherein a concentration higher than its respective control threshold concentration is indicative of TBI.
  • the term 'biological sample' in relation to the present invention refers to a sample suitable for screening to determine whether the subject is suffering from TBI and includes, but not exclusively, CSF, blood or samples derived thereof (for example whole blood, plasma, serum, cell-free serum, cell-free plasma), tissues, cells, saliva, transpired secretion, urine, faeces, stomach fluid, digestive fluid, nasal fluid, cytosolic fluid or other biological tissue or fluid .sample recognised in the art.
  • the term 'subject' in relation to the present invention includes, but not exclusively, any person or other animal that; in particular, is in need or thought to be in need of being assessed to determine whether said person or other animal is suffering from TBI.
  • the Applicant has identified that neuronal damage to axons and dendrites are key elements to TBI, and that in some cases damage to one type of fibre may be more apparent than the other. Potentially one type of fibre may be affected independent of the other.
  • This characteristic has been exemplified by screening a biological sample for the presence and/or elevated concentration of an axonal-associated neuronal biomarker (pNF-H) and a dendritic-associated neuronal biomarker (MAP2), compared with respective control threshold concentrations for each biomarker.
  • pNF-H axonal-associated neuronal biomarker
  • MAP2 dendritic-associated neuronal biomarker
  • Screening a biological sample which has already been obtained from a subject, potentially circumvents the need for expensive techniques such as radiological-based methods (for example CT, MRI) for screening, wherein the nature of such complex or expensive techniques often allows only a minimum number of investigations to be performed, thus gaining only a limited snapshot of the clinical picture.
  • Screening of a biological sample offers a simpler means to determine whether a subject may be suffering from TBI, and monitoring changes in at least two categories of brain biomarker allows the evolution of the TBI to be followed.
  • the method provides a simple means for determining whether a subject is suffering from TBI. Given the many varied circumstances in which a subject can succumb to TBI, as well as the many potential biomarkers associated with the nervous system, this present invention has shown that a method comprising a simple combination of a minimum of two biomarkers from different cellular locations (i.e. axons and dendrites) is capable of indicating TBI in a biological sample from a subject. Evaluating biomarkers from at least two different locations within the brain allows a more global assessment of TBI to be conducted.
