Mikus MS, Kolmert J, Andersson L, et al., 2022, Plasma proteins elevated in severe asthma despite oral steroid use and unrelated to Type-2 inflammation, European Respiratory Journal, Vol: 59, Pages: 1-17, ISSN: 0903-1936
Rationale Asthma phenotyping requires novel biomarker discovery.Objectives To identify plasma biomarkers associated with asthma phenotypes by application of a new proteomic panel to samples from two well-characterised cohorts of severe (SA) and mild-to-moderate (MMA) asthmatics, COPD subjects and healthy controls (HCs).Methods An antibody-based array targeting 177 proteins predominantly involved in pathways relevant to inflammation, lipid metabolism, signal transduction and extracellular matrix was applied to plasma from 525 asthmatics and HCs in the U-BIOPRED cohort, and 142 subjects with asthma and COPD from the validation cohort BIOAIR. Effects of oral corticosteroids (OCS) were determined by a 2-week, placebo-controlled OCS trial in BIOAIR, and confirmed by relation to objective OCS measures in U-BIOPRED.Results In U-BIOPRED, 110 proteins were significantly different, mostly elevated, in SA compared to MMA and HCs. 10 proteins were elevated in SA versus MMA in both U-BIOPRED and BIOAIR (alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, apolipoprotein-E, complement component 9, complement factor I, macrophage inflammatory protein-3, interleukin-6, sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase 3, TNF receptor superfamily member 11a, transforming growth factor-β and glutathione S-transferase). OCS treatment decreased most proteins, yet differences between SA and MMA remained following correction for OCS use. Consensus clustering of U-BIOPRED protein data yielded six clusters associated with asthma control, quality of life, blood neutrophils, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and body mass index, but not Type-2 inflammatory biomarkers. The mast cell specific enzyme carboxypeptidase A3 was one major contributor to cluster differentiation.Conclusions The plasma proteomic panel revealed previously unexplored yet potentially useful Type-2-independent biomarkers and validated several proteins with established involvement in the pathophysiology of SA.

Badi Y, Pavel AB, Pavlidis S, et al., 2022, Mapping atopic dermatitis and anti–IL-22 response signatures to type 2–low severe neutrophilic asthma, Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, Vol: 149, Pages: 89-101, ISSN: 0091-6749
Background:Transcriptomic changes in patients who respond clinically to biological therapies may identify responses in other tissues or diseases.Objective:We sought to determine whether a disease signature identified in atopic dermatitis (AD) is seen in adults with severe asthma and whether a transcriptomic signature for patients with AD who respond clinically to anti–IL-22 (fezakinumab [FZ]) is enriched in severe asthma.Methods:An AD disease signature was obtained from analysis of differentially expressed genes between AD lesional and nonlesional skin biopsies. Differentially expressed genes from lesional skin from therapeutic superresponders before and after 12 weeks of FZ treatment defined the FZ-response signature. Gene set variation analysis was used to produce enrichment scores of AD and FZ-response signatures in the Unbiased Biomarkers for the Prediction of Respiratory Disease Outcomes asthma cohort.Results:The AD disease signature (112 upregulated genes) encompassing inflammatory, T-cell, TH2, and TH17/TH22 pathways was enriched in the blood and sputum of patients with asthma with increasing severity. Patients with asthma with sputum neutrophilia and mixed granulocyte phenotypes were the most enriched (P < .05). The FZ-response signature (296 downregulated genes) was enriched in asthmatic blood (P < .05) and particularly in neutrophilic and mixed granulocytic sputum (P < .05). These data were confirmed in sputum of the Airway Disease Endotyping for Personalized Therapeutics cohort. IL-22 mRNA across tissues did not correlate with FZ-response enrichment scores, but this response signature correlated with TH22/IL-22 pathways.Conclusions:The FZ-response signature in AD identifies severe neutrophilic asthmatic patients as potential responders to FZ therapy. This approach will help identify patients for future asthma clinical trials of drugs used successfully in other chronic diseases.

Reinke S, Naz S, Kermani N, et al., 2021, The carnitine pathway is dysregulated in asthma in an oral corticosteroid-independent mechanism, 2021 ERS International Congress, Publisher: European Respiratory Society, ISSN: 0903-1936
Background: Asthma is a heterogeneous disease with poorly defined phenotypes.Aim: To identify metabolic dysregulations associated with asthma severity and evaluate the effects of asthma medication upon observed metabotypes.Methods: Baseline urine was collected from healthy controls (HC, n=108), mild-to-moderate asthmatics (MMA, n=87) and severe asthmatics (SA, n=418) from the U-BIOPRED cohort. 12-18 month longitudinal samples were collected from the SA cohort (n=305). Metabolomic data were acquired using mass spectrometry and analyzed using multivariate statistics. Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) was performed on bronchial brushing transcriptomic data.Results: 90 metabolites were identified with 40 altered in asthma (FDR<0.1). Multivariate modeling showed that HC and MMA differed significantly from all SA (p=1.4 ×10-14) and that oral corticosteroid (OCS)-treated asthmatics differed significantly from non-treated (p=9.52 ×10-4). Longitudinal samples were metabolically stable relative to baseline. OCS affected the levels of 25% of the metabolites, while theophylline affected 12%, and omalizumab had a minimal effect. Carnitine levels decreased in SA in an OCS-independent fashion. Carnitine is involved in long-chain fatty acid metabolism in mitochondria, which decreased along with levels of the carnitine transporter SLC22A5 in association with asthma severity in bronchial brushings, with differences strengthened by Th2 high/low stratification.Conclusions: SA have a dysregulated urinary metabolic profile that is strongly confounded by OCS treatment. Altered carnitine metabolism is independent of OCS and associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, presenting a potential target for intervention.
