Abstract
Background: Tuberculosis (TB) diagnostic monitoring is paramount to clinical decision-making and the host biomarkers appears to play a significant role. The currently available diagnostic technology for TB detection is inadequate. In the present study, we aimed to identify biomarkers for diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) using urinary metabolomic and proteomic analysis.
Methods: In the study, urine from 40 PTB, 40 lung cancer (LCA), 40 community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients and 40 healthy controls (HC) was collected. Biomarker panels were selected based on random forest (RF) analysis.
Results: A total of 3,868 proteins and 1,272 annotated metabolic features were detected using pairwise comparisons. Using AUC ≥ 0.80 as a cutoff value, we picked up five protein biomarkers for PTB diagnosis. The five-protein panel yielded an AUC for PTB/HC, PTB/CAP and PTB/LCA of 0.9840, 0.9680 and 0.9310, respectively. Additionally, five metabolism biomarkers were selected for differential diagnosis purpose. By employment of the five-metabolism panel, we could differentiate PTB/HC at an AUC of 0.9940, PTB/CAP of 0.8920, and PTB/LCA of 0.8570.
Conclusion: Our data demonstrate that metabolomic and proteomic analysis can identify a novel urine biomarker panel to diagnose PTB with high sensitivity and specificity. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that it is possible to perform non-invasive clinical diagnoses of PTB through these urine biomarkers.
