Definitions

  • Liver cancer is one of the three major cancers in the liver, competing with stomach cancer and lung cancer for the second highest cancer mortality rate, commonly referred to as Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It affects people in their 40s and 60s, and four times more men than women. Liver cancer is more likely to occur if you have an underlying liver disease. If you have cirrhosis of any cause, it is a risk factor for liver cancer. Liver cirrhosis occurs in 75-85% of liver cancer patients, and 10-30% of cirrhosis patients develop liver cancer. Viral hepatitis is also an important risk factor. Among them, hepatitis B is involved in 60-70% of liver cancer patients, and hepatitis C is involved in about 10% of liver cancer patients.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing a liver disease, such as liver cancer and cirrhosis, via bacterial metagenomic analysis and, more particularly, to a method for diagnosing liver cancer and cirrhosis by performing bacterial metagenomic analysis using a subject-derived sample, and by analyzing an increase or decrease in the content of a specific bacterium-derived extracellular vesicle. An extracellular vesicle secreted from a bacterium present in the environment can be absorbed into the body and directly affect the occurrence of inflammation and cancer, and a liver disease, such as liver cancer and cirrhosis, is difficult to diagnose early on before any symptom appears, which makes efficient treatment difficult. As such, through the metagenomic analysis on a gene present in a bacterium-derived extracellular vesicle using a human body-derived sample according to the present invention, the risk of the onset of liver cancer and cirrhosis can be predicted in advance, enabling early diagnosis and prediction of a liver disease risk group and delay of the time of the onset or prevention of the onset through proper care, and early diagnosis is still possible even after the onset of cirrhosis or liver cancer, which can lower the incidence rate of the liver disease and enhance the treatment effect.

Description

세균 메타게놈 분석을 통한 간질환 진단 방법 Diagnosis of liver disease through bacterial metagenome analysis
본 발명은 세균 메타게놈 분석을 통해 간암 및 간경변 등의 간질환을 진단하는 방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 구체적으로는 피검체 유래 샘플을 이용해 세균 메타게놈 분석을 수행하여 특정 세균 유래 세포밖 소포의 함량 증감을 분석함으로써 간질환을 진단하는 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing liver diseases such as liver cancer and cirrhosis through bacterial metagenome analysis, and more specifically, to increase or decrease the content of specific bacterial-derived extracellular vesicles by performing bacterial metagenome analysis using a sample derived from a subject. The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing liver disease.
간암(liver cancer)은 간에서 발생하는, 암 사망률 2위를 놓고 위암, 폐암과 다투는 3대 암 중 하나로서 흔히 간세포암 (Hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC)를 말한다. 40~60대에 호발하며, 남자가 여자보다 4배 정도 많이 발생한다. 기저 간질환이 있는 경우 간암이 발생하기 쉬운데, 원인 불문하고 간경변이 있으면 간암의 위험인자가 된다. 간암 환자의 75~85%에서 간경변이 있으며, 간경변환자의 10~30%가 간암이 발생한다고 한다. 또한 바이러스성 간염이 있는 경우도 중요한 위험 인자인데, 그중에서도 B형간염이 간암환자의 60~70%에서, C형간염이 간암환자의 10%정도가 관련된다고 한다. 우리나라에서 B형간염이 있는 사람의 간암발생률은 정상인의 6배라고 하며, 일본, 미국, 유럽에서는 C형간염이 간암의 가장 중요한 위험인자라고 알려져 있다. 또한 술이 중요한 위험인자인데, 우리나라 간암의 10~20%가 알코올성 간 질환에서 발생한다. 그 외 대사질환, 예를 들어 혈색소증, 윌슨병 등을 가지고 있는 경우에도 간암 발생이 증가할 수 있으며, 경구피임약 (에스트로겐이 함유된 제품)도 간암의 발생 위험을 높인다. 당뇨, 비만, 조영제 사용 등도 간암 발생과 연관이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 대표적인 간세포암의 종양표지자는 알파태아단백 (Alphafetoprotein, AFP)으로서 혈액검사로 측정한다. 다른 종양표지자도 마찬가지지만 민감도 50~80%, 특이도 60~90%로 그다지 높지 않기 때문에 다른 검사 결과와 같이 해석해야 하는 한계가 있다. 최근에 나온 표지자로 PIVKA-II라고 하는 단백질도 있는데, 민감도 60-90%, 특이도 90%로 알파태아단백보다 좋다. Liver cancer is one of the three major cancers in the liver, competing with stomach cancer and lung cancer for the second highest cancer mortality rate, commonly referred to as Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It affects people in their 40s and 60s, and four times more men than women. Liver cancer is more likely to occur if you have an underlying liver disease. If you have cirrhosis of any cause, it is a risk factor for liver cancer. Liver cirrhosis occurs in 75-85% of liver cancer patients, and 10-30% of cirrhosis patients develop liver cancer. Viral hepatitis is also an important risk factor. Among them, hepatitis B is involved in 60-70% of liver cancer patients, and hepatitis C is involved in about 10% of liver cancer patients. In Korea, the incidence of liver cancer in people with hepatitis B is six times that of normal people. Hepatitis C is known to be the most important risk factor for liver cancer in Japan, the United States, and Europe. Alcohol is also an important risk factor, and 10-20% of Korean liver cancer occurs in alcoholic liver disease. Liver cancers may also increase with metabolic diseases such as hemochromatosis and Wilson's disease, and oral contraceptives (products containing estrogen) also increase the risk of developing liver cancer. Diabetes, obesity and the use of contrast agents are also known to be associated with liver cancer. Tumor markers of representative hepatocellular carcinoma are alphafetoprotein (AFP) and are measured by blood tests. The same is true for other tumor markers, but its sensitivity is 50-80% and specificity 60-90%. A recent marker is a protein called PIVKA-II, which is 60-90% sensitive and 90% specific, better than alpha-fetoprotein.
간부전 (肝不全, hepatic failure)은 간이 정상적인 생리 작용으로서의 단백질 합성과 대사 기능을 수행할 수 없는 상태를 말하고, 간기능부전 (肝機能不全) 또는 간기능상실(肝機能喪失)이라고도 한다. 간부전에는 두 가지 형태가 알려져 있는데, 급성 간부전은 간 문제로 인한 첫 증상 (황달 등)을 보인 후 4주 내로 간성 뇌증 (혼란, 인사불성, 혼수상태)이 진행되고, 단백질 (알부민 등) 혈액 응고 단백질의 생산이 줄어든다. 만성 간부전은 과도한 음주, B형 간염 혹은 C형 간염 바이러스, 자가면역, 유전적 원인, 철, 구리의 과잉섭취 등 대사적 원인 등에 의해 발생하는데, 간경변 (肝硬便, 영어: liver Cirrhosis)을 수반한다. 간경변은 간의 조직 세포에 문제가 생겨 간이 굳고 오므라드는 것이 특징이고, 간경화, 간섬유증으로도 부른다. 간경변은 광범위한 간세포 파괴의 결과로 섬유조직의 증식과 재생성 결절 형성의 형태학적 특징을 보이며, 2차적으로 간내혈관의 변형 및 간기능의 저하가 초래되는 질병이다. 간의 섬유화는 서서히 진행되어 상당한 경과가 있더라도 간기능 부전이 일어나기 전까지 자각증상이 없다. 따라서 조기에 간경변의 발생을 진단하는 것은 매우 어렵다. Liver failure (은 不全, hepatic failure) refers to a condition in which the liver can not perform protein synthesis and metabolic function as a normal physiological function, also referred to as liver failure (能 機能 不全) or liver failure (肝 機能 喪失). There are two known forms of hepatic insufficiency. Acute hepatic insufficiency develops hepatic encephalopathy (confusion, non-incompatibility, coma) within 4 weeks after the first symptoms of liver problems (such as jaundice), and blood clotting of proteins (albumin, etc.). The production of protein is reduced. Chronic liver failure is caused by excessive drinking, hepatitis B or hepatitis C virus, autoimmunity, genetic causes, and metabolic causes such as excessive intake of iron and copper, which are accompanied by cirrhosis (肝 硬 便, English: liver Cirrhosis). do. Cirrhosis is characterized by problems with liver tissue cells, causing the liver to harden and retract, also called cirrhosis and liver fibrosis. Hepatic cirrhosis is a disease that results in extensive hepatocellular destruction, showing morphological characteristics of fibrous tissue proliferation and regenerative nodule formation. Secondly, hepatic vascular deformation and deterioration of liver function are caused. Fibrosis of the liver progresses slowly and there is no subjective symptoms until significant progress is made. Therefore, it is very difficult to diagnose the occurrence of cirrhosis early.
한편, 인체에 공생하는 미생물은 100조에 이르러 인간 세포보다 10배 많으며, 미생물의 유전자수는 인간 유전자수의 100배가 넘는 것으로 알려지고 있다. 미생물총(microbiota 혹은 microbiome)은 주어진 거주지에 존재하는 세균(bacteria), 고세균(archaea), 진핵생물(eukarya)을 포함한 미생물 군집(microbial community)을 말하고, 장내 미생물총은 사람의 생리현상에 중요한 역할을 하며, 인체 세포와 상호작용을 통해 인간의 건강과 질병에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 우리 몸에 공생하는 세균은 다른 세포로의 유전자, 단백질 등의 정보를 교환하기 위하여 나노미터 크기의 소포(vesicle)를 분비한다. 점막은 200 나노미터(nm) 크기 이상의 입자는 통과할 수 없는 물리적인 방어막을 형성하여 점막에 공생하는 세균인 경우에는 점막을 통과하지 못하지만, 세균 유래 소포는 크기가 대개 100 나노미터 크기 이하라서 비교적 자유롭게 점막을 통화하여 우리 몸에 흡수된다.On the other hand, the symbiosis of the human body reaches 100 trillion times 10 times more than human cells, the number of genes of the microorganism is known to be more than 100 times the number of human genes. Microbiota (microbiota or microbiome) refers to a microbial community including bacteria, archaea and eukarya that exist in a given settlement.Intestinal microbiota is an important role in human physiology. It is known to have a great effect on human health and disease through interaction with human cells. The symbiotic bacteria secrete nanometer-sized vesicles to exchange information about genes and proteins in other cells. The mucous membrane forms a physical protective film that particles larger than 200 nanometers (nm) in size can't pass through, so that the symbiotic bacteria cannot pass through the mucosa, but bacterial-derived vesicles are usually less than 100 nanometers in size. It freely speaks to the mucous membrane and is absorbed by our body.
환경 유전체학이라고도 불리는 메타게놈학은 환경에서 채취한 샘플에서 얻은 메타게놈 자료에 대한 분석학이라고 할 수 있다(국내 공개특허 제2011-0073049호). 최근 16s 리보솜 RNA(16s rRNA) 염기서열을 기반으로 한 방법으로 인간의 미생물총의 세균 구성을 목록화하는 것이 가능해졌으며, 16s 리보솜 RNA의 유전자인 16s rDNA 염기서열을 차세대 염기서열분석 (next generation sequencing, NGS) platform을 이용하여 분석한다. 그러나 간암 발병에 있어서, 혈액 등의 인체 유래물에서 세균 유래 소포에 존재하는 메타게놈 분석을 통해 간암의 원인인자를 동정하고 간암 발병 위험도를 진단하는 방법에 대해서는 보고된 바가 없다.Metagenomics, also called environmental genomics, can be said to be an analysis of metagenomic data obtained from samples taken from the environment (Korean Patent Publication No. 2011-0073049). Recently, it has become possible to list the bacterial composition of the human microflora by a method based on 16s ribosomal RNA (16s rRNA) sequencing. Next generation sequencing of 16s rDNA sequencing gene of 16s ribosomal RNA is performed. , NGS) platform to analyze. However, in the development of liver cancer, there has been no report on a method for identifying the causative factors of liver cancer and diagnosing the risk of liver cancer through metagenomic analysis of bacteria-derived vesicles in human derivatives such as blood.

실시예Example 1. 장내 세균 및 세균 유래 소포의 체내 흡수, 분포, 및 배설 양상 분석 1. Analysis of absorption, distribution, and excretion of intestinal bacteria and bacterial-derived vesicles
장내 세균과 세균 유래 소포가 위장관을 통해 전신적으로 흡수되는 지를 평가하기 위하여 다음과 같은 방법으로 실험을 수행하였다. 마우스의 위장에 형광으로 표지한 장내세균과 장내 세균 유래 소포를 각각 50 μg의 용량으로 위장관으로 투여하고 0분, 5분, 3시간, 6시간, 12시간 후에 형광을 측정하였다. 마우스 전체 이미지를 관찰한 결과, 도 1a에 나타낸 바와 같이, 상기 세균(Bacteria)인 경우에는 전신적으로 흡수되지 않았지만, 세균 유래 소포(EV)인 경우에는, 투여 후 5분에 전신적으로 흡수되었고, 투여 3시간 후에는 방광에 형광이 진하게 관찰되어, 소포가 비뇨기계로 배설됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 소포는 투여 12시간까지 체내에 존재함을 알 수 있었다. In order to evaluate whether the intestinal bacteria and bacteria-derived vesicles are absorbed systemically through the gastrointestinal tract, experiments were performed as follows. Fluorescently labeled enterobacteriaceae and enteric bacteria-derived vesicles were administered to the gastrointestinal tract at doses of 50 μg, respectively, and the fluorescence was measured after 0, 5, 3, 6 and 12 hours. As a result of observing the entire image of the mouse, as shown in FIG. 1A, the bacteria (Bacteria) were not absorbed systemically, but in the case of bacteria-derived vesicles (EV), they were absorbed systemically 5 minutes after administration and administered.
