Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare disease that threatens multiple organs in the human body. TSC‑associated renal angiomyolipoma (TSC‑RAML) has potentially life‑threatening complications and a generally poor prognosis. The present study aimed to find plasma proteomic diagnostics and disease‑associated markers, and explore the tumor microenvironment using multi‑omics. To achieve this goal, the plasma proteomics as well as tissue proteomics, bulk and single‑cell RNA transcriptome from patients with TSC‑RAML were examined and analyzed. The results suggested that plasma proteins such as MMP9 and C‑C motif chemokine ligand 5 were able to differentiate TSC‑RAML from sporadic angiomyolipoma and renal cyst. A correlation analysis revealed that plasma proteomics were associated with lymphangioleiomyomatosis, TSC‑RAML grading and whole‑body disease burden. Tissue proteomics of participants with TSC‑RAML revealed disturbed small molecule catabolic process, mitochondrial matrix component and actin binding function. Bulk and single‑cell RNA sequencing suggested a greater number of tumor‑like cells, fibroblasts and mononuclear macrophages within the tumor microenvironment. The above results indicated that TSC‑RAML exhibited a characteristic and disease‑associated plasma proteomic profile. The unique microenvironment, made up of fibroblasts and mono‑macrophages, may promote tumorigenesis and TSC‑RAML progression.
结节性硬化症复合征(TSC)是一种威胁人体多器官的罕见疾病。与 TSC 相关的肾血管平滑肌脂肪瘤(TSC-RAML)具有潜在的危及生命的并发症和普遍较差的预后。本研究旨在寻找血浆蛋白质组学诊断和疾病相关标志物,并使用多组学探索肿瘤微环境。为了实现这一目标,对 TSC-RAML 患者的血浆蛋白质组学以及组织蛋白质组学、批量和单细胞 RNA 转录组进行了检查和分析。结果表明,MMP9 和 C-C 基序趋化因子配体 5 等血浆蛋白能够将 TSC-RAML 与散发性血管平滑肌脂肪瘤和肾囊肿区分开来。相关性分析表明,血浆蛋白质组学与淋巴管平滑肌瘤病、TSC-RAML 分级和全身疾病负担有关。TSC-RAML 患者的组织蛋白质组学显示小分子分解代谢过程、线粒体基质成分和肌动蛋白结合功能受到干扰。批量和单细胞 RNA 测序表明肿瘤微环境中存在更多的肿瘤样细胞、成纤维细胞和单核巨噬细胞。上述结果表明,TSC-RAML 表现出特征性和疾病相关的血浆蛋白质组学特征。由成纤维细胞和单核巨噬细胞组成的独特微环境可能促进肿瘤发生和 TSC-RAML 进展。
