Identification and validation of serum autoantibodies in children with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia by serological proteome analysis.
Article in Proteome science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundB-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is the most common malignancy of childhood. Even though significant progresses have been made in the treatment of B-ALL, some pediatric B-ALL have still poor prognosis. The identification of tumor autoantibodies may have utility in early cancer diagnosis and immunotherapy. In this study, we used serological proteome analysis (SERPA) to screen serum autoantibodies of pediatric B-ALL, aiming to contribute to the early detection of B-ALL in children.
methodsThe total proteins from three pooled B-ALL cell lines (NALM-6, REH and BALL-1 cells) were separated using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), which was followed by Western blot by mixed serum samples from children with B-ALL (n=20) or healthy controls (n=20). We analyzed the images of 2-D gel and Western blot by PDQuest software, and then identified the spots of immune responses in B-ALL samples compared with those in control samples. The proteins from spots were identified using mass spectrometry (MS). The autoantibodies against alpha-enolase (α-enolase) and voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 1 (VDAC1) were further validated in sera from another 30 children with B-ALL and 25 normal individuals by the use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein expression levels of the candidate antigens α-enolase and VDAC1 in B-ALL were thoroughly studied by immunohistochemical analysis.
resultsUtilizing the SERPA approach, α-enolase and VDAC1 were identified as candidate autoantigens in children with B-ALL. The frequencies of autoantibodies against α-enolase and VDAC1 in children with B-ALL were 27% and 23% by using ELISA analysis, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in normal controls (4% and 0, p<0.05). Immunohistochemical analysis showed the expression of α-enolase and VDAC1 was positive in 95% and 85% of B-ALL patients, respectively, but negative expression levels were showed in the control group.
conclusionsThis study incidated that α-enolase and VDAC1 may be the autoantigens associated with B-ALL. Therefore, α-enolase and VDAC1 autoantibodies may be the potential serological markers for children with B-ALL.
