Popis: | Background Several pro-oncogenic signals, including transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signalling from tumour microenvironment, generate intratumoural phenotypic heterogeneity and result in tumour progression and treatment failure. However, the precise diagnosis for tumour areas containing subclones with cytokine-induced malignant properties remains clinically challenging. Methods We established a rapid diagnostic system based on the combination of probe electrospray ionisation-mass spectrometry (PESI-MS) and machine learning without the aid of immunohistological and biochemical procedures to identify tumour areas with heterogeneous TGF-β signalling status in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). A total of 240 and 90 mass spectra were obtained from TGF-β-unstimulated and -stimulated HNSCC cells, respectively, by PESI-MS and were used for the construction of a diagnostic system based on lipidome. Results This discriminant algorithm achieved 98.79% accuracy in discrimination of TGF-β1-stimulated cells from untreated cells. In clinical human HNSCC tissues, this approach achieved determination of tumour areas with activated TGF-β signalling as efficiently as a conventional histopathological assessment using phosphorylated-SMAD2 staining. Furthermore, several altered peaks on mass spectra were identified as phosphatidylcholine species in TGF-β-stimulated HNSCC cells. Conclusions This diagnostic system combined with PESI-MS and machine learning encourages us to clinically diagnose intratumoural phenotypic heterogeneity induced by TGF-β. |
