    Abstract Background: Breast cancer is regarded as a highly malignant neoplasm in the female population, posing a significant risk to women's overall well-being. The prevalence of breast cancer has been observed to rise in China, accompanied by an earlier age of onset when compared to Western countries. Breast cancer continues to be a prominent contributor to cancer-related mortality and morbidity among women, primarily due to its limited responsiveness to conventional treatment modalities. The diagnostic process is challenging due to the presence of non-specific clinical manifestations and the suboptimal precision of conventional diagnostic tests. There is a prevailing uncertainty regarding the most effective screening method and target populations, as well as the specificities and execution of screening programs.
    Aim: To identify diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for breast cancer.
    Methods: Overlapping differentially expressed genes were screened based on Gene Expression Omnibus (GSE36765, GSE10810, and GSE20086) and The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets. A protein-protein interaction network was applied to excavate the hub genes among these differentially expressed genes. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses, as well as gene set enrichment analyses, were conducted to examine the functions of these genes and their potential mechanisms in the development of breast cancer. For clarification of the diagnostic and prognostic roles of these genes, Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards analyses were conducted.
    Results: This study demonstrated that calreticulin, heat shock protein family B member 1, insulin-like growth Factor 1, interleukin-1 receptor 1, Krüppel-like factor 4, suppressor of cytokine signaling 3, and triosephosphate isomerase 1 are potential diagnostic biomarkers of breast cancer as well as potential treatment targets with clinical implications.
    Conclusion: The screening of biomarkers is of guiding significance for the diagnosis and prognosis of the diseases.

    Abstract Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a common virus in Europe and Asia, causing around 10,000 to 10,500 infections annually. It affects the central nervous system and poses threats to public health. However, the exact molecular mechanisms of TBE pathogenesis are not yet fully understood due to the complex interactions between the virus and its host. In this study, a comprehensive analysis was conducted to characterize the serum metabolome and proteome of adult patients infected with TBEV, in comparison to a control group of healthy individuals. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to monitor metabolic and proteomic alternations throughout the progression of the disease, significant physiological changes associated with different stages of the disease were identified. A total of 44 proteins and 115 metabolites exhibited significantly alternations in the sera of patients diagnosed with TBE. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses of these metabolites and proteins revealed differential enrichment of genes associated with the extracellular matrix, complement binding, hemostasis, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism between TBE patients and healthy controls. We gained valuable understanding of the specific metabolites implicated in the host's responses to TBE, establishing a basis for further research on TBE disease. SIGNIFICANCE: The current investigation revealed a comprehensive and systematic differences on TBE using LC-MS platform from human serum samples of TBE patients and healthy individuals providing the immune response to the invasion of TBE.

    Abstract Background: Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is the most prevalent arbovirus, with a tentative estimate of 10,000 to 10,500 infections occurring in Europe and Asia every year. Endemic in Northeast China, tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is emerging as a major threat to public health, local economies and tourism. The complicated array of host physiological changes has hampered elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of this disease.
    Methodology/principle findings: System-level characterization of the serum metabolome and lipidome of adult TBEV patients and a healthy control group was performed using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. By tracking metabolic and lipid changes during disease progression, crucial physiological changes that coincided with disease stages could be identified. Twenty-eight metabolites were significantly altered in the sera of TBE patients in our metabolomic analysis, and 14 lipids were significantly altered in our lipidomics study. Among these metabolites, alpha-linolenic acid, azelaic acid, D-glutamine, glucose-1-phosphate, L-glutamic acid, and mannose-6-phosphate were altered compared to the control group, and PC(38:7), PC(28:3;1), TAG(52:6), etc. were altered based on lipidomics. Major perturbed metabolic pathways included amino acid metabolism, lipid and oxidative stress metabolism (lipoprotein biosynthesis, arachidonic acid biosynthesis, leukotriene biosynthesis and sphingolipid metabolism), phospholipid metabolism and triglyceride metabolism. These metabolites were significantly perturbed during disease progression, implying their latent utility as prognostic markers.
    Conclusions/significance: TBEV infection causes distinct temporal changes in the serum metabolome and lipidome, and many metabolites are potentially involved in the acute inflammatory response and immune regulation. Our global analysis revealed anti- and pro-inflammatory processes in the host and changes to the entire metabolic profile. Relationships between metabolites and pathologies were established. This study provides important insight into the pathology of TBE, including its pathology, and lays the foundation for further research into putative markers of TBE disease.
