摘要: 目的 分析耐多药与药物敏感肺结核患者的外周血转录组学差异及免疫浸润特征、并探讨差异基因表达水平与免疫细胞占比的关联性,为耐多药肺结核的发病机制解析提供依据。方法 本研究为横断面研究,选取2024年1月至12月在新疆维吾尔自治区第六人民医院就诊的10例肺结核患者为研究对象,根据分子药敏结果分为耐多药组(n=5)和药物敏感组(n=5)。收集10例患者静脉血全血样本并提取RNA进行高通量测序,通过mRNA转录组学分析获得两组中的差异基因。采用基因本体论(gene ontology,GO)和京都基因与基因组百科全书(Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes,KEGG)数据库,对差异基因进行功能注释及通路富集分析,以明确其关联功能与核心富集通路。基于quantiseq算法计算样本的免疫细胞组成并比较免疫细胞占比在两组间的差异。挑选免疫相关差异基因,采用Spearman相关分析计算该类基因与上述免疫细胞占比之间的相关性。结果 研究以药物敏感肺结核患者为对照,基于既定的差异基因筛选阈值,在耐多药肺结核患者中共筛选出583个差异表达基因,其中上调基因330个、下调基因253个。10种免疫细胞中,耐多药肺结核患者中性粒细胞占比显著高于药物敏感肺结核患者(P<0.05)。共7个免疫相关差异基因的表达值与中性粒细胞占比具有较强的相关性(|R|>0.5),其中MAP1LC3A和CASP5的表达水平与中性粒细胞占比的相关性最强。MAP1LC3A的表达水平与中性粒细胞占比呈负相关(R=-0.527,P=0.117),而CASP5的表达水平与中性粒细胞占比呈正相关(R=0.661,P=0.038)。结论 与药物敏感肺结核患者相比,耐多药肺结核患者的外周血中性粒细胞占比显著增加。耐多药肺结核患者外周血的MAP1LC3A表达水平下调和CASP5表达水平上调与中性粒细胞占比增加高度相关。由MAP1LC3A介导的自噬机制和以CASP5为主的中性粒细胞胞外杀菌网络生成及炎症反应异常或是深入探究肺结核耐药机制的重要突破口。

Abstract: Objective To analyze the differences in peripheral blood transcriptomics and immune infiltration characteristics between multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and drug-susceptible tuberculosis (DS-TB) patients, explore the correlation between differential gene expression levels and immune cell proportions, and provide evidence for elucidating the pathogenesis of MDR-TB. Method This cross-sectional study enrolled 10 pulmonary tuberculosis patients who admitted to Sixth People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January to December 2024. Based on molecular drug sensitivity results, they were divided into a multidrug-resistant group and a drug-sensitive group. Venous whole blood samples were collected from each patients, and RNA was extracted for high-throughput sequencing. Differentially expressed genes in the two groups were identified through mRNA transcriptomics analysis. The gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) databases were used to perform functional annotation and pathway enrichment analysis on the differentially expressed genes to clarify their associated functions and core enriched pathways. The immune cell composition of the patients was calculated using the quantexq algorithm, and the differences in immune cell percentage between the two groups were compared. Immune-related differentially expressed genes were selected, and Spearman correlation analysis was used to calculate the correlation between these genes and the immune cell percentages. Result Using drug-sensitive pulmonary tuberculosis patients as the control and based on the predefined screening thresholds for differentially expressed genes, a total of 583 differentially expressed genes were identified in multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis patients, including 330 upregulated genes and 253 downregulated genes. Among the 10 immune cell types, the percentage of neutrophils in multidrug-resistant group was significantly higher than that in drug-sensitive tuberculosis group (P<0.05). The expression levels of seven immune-related differentially expressed genes showed a strong correlation with the percentage of neutrophils (|R|>0.5), with MAP1LC3A and CASP5 showing the strongest correlation. Specifically, the expression level of MAP1LC3A was negatively correlated with the proportion of neutrophils (R=-0.527, P=0.117), while the expression level of CASP5 was positively correlated with the proportion of neutrophils (R=0.661, P=0.038). Conclusion Compared with drug-sensitive patients, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients had a significantly increased percentage of peripheral blood neutrophils. Downregulation of MAP1LC3A and upregulation of CASP5 in the peripheral blood of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients were highly correlated with the increased percentage of neutrophils.The autophagy mechanism mediated by MAP1LC3A and the abnormal neutrophil extracellular traps generation and inflammatory response mainly based on CASP5 were important breakthroughs for in-depth research into the drug resistance mechanism of pulmonary tuberculosis.
