PURPOSE: Behçet's disease-associated uveitis (BDU) is a severe, recurrent inflammatory condition affecting the eye and is part of a systemic vasculitis with unknown etiology, making biomarker discovery essential for disease management. In this study, we intend to investigate potential urinary biomarkers to monitor the disease activity of BDU.
METHODS: Firstly, label-free data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and tandem mass tag (TMT)-labeled quantitative proteomics methods were used to profile the proteomes of urine from active and quiescent BDU patients, respectively. For further exploration, the remaining fifty urine samples were analyzed by a data-independent acquisition (DIA) quantitative proteomics method.
RESULTS: Twenty-nine and 21 differential proteins were identified in the same urine from BDU patients by label-free DDA and TMT-labeled analyses, respectively. Seventy-nine differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were significantly changed in other active BDU urine samples compared to those in quiescent BDU urine samples by IDA analysis. Gene Ontology (GO) and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analyses revealed that the DEPs were associated with multiple functions, including the immune and neutrophil activation responses. Finally, seven proteins were identified as candidate biomarkers for BDU monitoring and recurrence prediction, namely, CD38, KCRB, DPP4, FUCA2, MTPN, S100A8 and S100A9.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed that urine can be a good source of biomarkers for BDU. These dysregulated proteins provide potential urinary biomarkers for BDU activity monitoring and provide valuable clues for the analysis of the pathogenic mechanisms of BDU.
