Résumé
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease of unknown etiology and poorly understood pathophysiology. There is no specific biomarker either for diagnosis or prognosis. The aim of our study was to investigate differentially expressed proteins in the CSF and serum from patients with ALS to determine their role in the disease process and evaluate their utility as diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers. We performed mass spectrometry in the CSF from 3 patients with ALS and 3 healthy controls (HCs). The results were compared with motor cortex dysregulated transcripts obtained from 11patients with sporadic ALS and 8 HCs. Candidate proteins were tested using ELISA in the serum of 123 patients with ALS, 30 patients with Alzheimer disease (AD), 28 patients with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and 102 HCs. Patients with ALS, AD, and FTD were prospectively recruited from January 2003 to December 2020. A group of age-matched HCs was randomly selected from the Sant Pau Initiative on Neurodegeneration cohort of the Sant Pau Memory Unit. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2) and osteopontin (Spp1) were differentially expressed in the CSF and the motor cortex transcriptome of patients with ALS compared with that in HCs ( Our discovery-based approach identified NOD2 as a novel biomarker in ALS and adds evidence to the contribution of Spp1 in the disease process. Both proteins are involved in innate immunity and autophagy and are increased in the serum from patients with ALS. Our data support a relevant role of neuroinflammation in the pathophysiology of the disease and may identify targets for disease-modifying treatments in ALS. Further longitudinal studies should investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of NOD2 and Spp1 in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease of unknown etiology and poorly understood pathophysiology. There is no specific biomarker either for diagnosis or prognosis. The aim of our study was to investigate differentially expressed proteins in the CSF and serum from patients with ALS to determine their role in the disease process and evaluate their utility as diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers.
METHODS
We performed mass spectrometry in the CSF from 3 patients with ALS and 3 healthy controls (HCs). The results were compared with motor cortex dysregulated transcripts obtained from 11patients with sporadic ALS and 8 HCs. Candidate proteins were tested using ELISA in the serum of 123 patients with ALS, 30 patients with Alzheimer disease (AD), 28 patients with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and 102 HCs. Patients with ALS, AD, and FTD were prospectively recruited from January 2003 to December 2020. A group of age-matched HCs was randomly selected from the Sant Pau Initiative on Neurodegeneration cohort of the Sant Pau Memory Unit.
RESULTS
Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein 2 (NOD2) and osteopontin (Spp1) were differentially expressed in the CSF and the motor cortex transcriptome of patients with ALS compared with that in HCs (
DISCUSSION
Our discovery-based approach identified NOD2 as a novel biomarker in ALS and adds evidence to the contribution of Spp1 in the disease process. Both proteins are involved in innate immunity and autophagy and are increased in the serum from patients with ALS. Our data support a relevant role of neuroinflammation in the pathophysiology of the disease and may identify targets for disease-modifying treatments in ALS. Further longitudinal studies should investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of NOD2 and Spp1 in clinical practice.
