Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in the Western world. Studies of CLL antibody reactivity have shown differential targets to autoantigens and antimicrobial molecular motifs that support the current hypothesis of CLL pathogenesis.
In this study, we conducted a quantitative serum analysis of 7 immunoglobulins in CLL and monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL) patients (bead-suspension protein arrays) and a serological profile (IgG and IgM) study of autoantibodies and antimicrobial antigens (protein microarrays).
Significant differences in the IgA levels were observed according to disease progression and evolution as well as significant alterations in IgG1 according to IGHV mutational status. More representative IgG autoantibodies in the cohort were against nonmutagenic proteins and IgM autoantibodies were against vesicle proteins. Antimicrobial IgG and IgM were detected against microbes associated with respiratory tract infections.
Quantitative differences in immunoglobulin serum levels could be potential biomarkers for disease progression. In the top 5 tumoral antigens, we detected autoantibodies (IgM and IgG) against proteins related to cell homeostasis and metabolism in the studied cohort. The top 5 microbial antigens were associated with respiratory and gastrointestinal infections; moreover, the subsets with better prognostics were characterized by a reactivation of Cytomegalovirus. The viral humoral response could be a potential prognosis biomarker for disease progression.
慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)是西方世界最常见的白血病。对CLL抗体反应性的研究表明,其自身抗原和抗菌分子基序的靶点存在差异,这支持了当前关于CLL发病机制的假说。
在本研究中,我们对CLL和单克隆B细胞淋巴细胞增多症(MBL)患者的7种免疫球蛋白进行了定量血清分析(珠悬液蛋白阵列),并对自身抗体和抗菌抗原进行了血清学分析(IgG和IgM)(蛋白质微阵列)。
根据疾病进展和演变观察到IgA水平存在显著差异,根据IGHV突变状态观察到IgG1存在显著改变。该队列中更具代表性的IgG自身抗体针对非诱变蛋白,IgM自身抗体针对囊泡蛋白。检测到针对与呼吸道感染相关微生物的抗菌IgG和IgM。
免疫球蛋白血清水平的定量差异可能是疾病进展的潜在生物标志物。在排名前5的肿瘤抗原中,我们在研究队列中检测到针对与细胞稳态和代谢相关蛋白质的自身抗体(IgM和IgG)。排名前5的微生物抗原与呼吸道和胃肠道感染相关;此外,预后较好的亚组的特征是巨细胞病毒重新激活。病毒体液反应可能是疾病进展的潜在预后生物标志物。
