2020年11月09日,NATURE MEDICINE 雜志(IF:36.13)發(fā)表《Rapid pathogen detection by metagenomic next - generation sequencing of infected body fluids》研究文章,探討新一代宏基因組測序?qū)Ω腥倔w液快速進(jìn)行病原檢測的應(yīng)用,該研究入組160名急性病患者,并收集了182種體液進(jìn)行mNGS檢測,并與培養(yǎng)法、PCR、納米孔測序等方法進(jìn)行微生物學(xué)測試的對比。
我們使用體液中的無細(xì)胞DNA進(jìn)行了mNGS測試,以鑒定病原體。使用兩種測序平臺(tái)對160名急性病患者的182種體液的mNGS測試性能進(jìn)行了評估,并與使用培養(yǎng)物、16S細(xì)菌PCR和/或28S-內(nèi)部轉(zhuǎn)錄核糖體基因間隔子(28S-ITS)真菌PCR的微生物學(xué)測試進(jìn)行對比。通過Illumina測序,細(xì)菌的檢測靈敏度和檢測特異性分別為79%和91%,真菌為91%和89%;通過納米孔測序,細(xì)菌分別為75%和81%,真菌為91%和100%。在12例培養(yǎng)/ PCR陰性體液但最終被確診為感染的患者中,有7例(58%)是mNGS陽性。實(shí)時(shí)計(jì)算分析可通過中值50分鐘測序和6小時(shí)樣品到應(yīng)答時(shí)間的納米孔測序?qū)崿F(xiàn)病原體鑒定??焖俚膍NGS測試是診斷體液未知感染的潛在工具。

a, Schematic of mNGS body fluid analysis workflow. The clinical gold standard consisted of aggregated results from cultures, bacterial 16S PCR and/or fungal 28S–ITS PCR, while the composite standard also included confirmatory digital PCR with Sanger sequencing and clinical adjudication. For nanopore sequencing in <6?h, 40–60?min are needed for nucleic acid extraction, 2–2.5?h for mNGS library preparation, 1?h for nanopore 1D library preparation and 1?h for nanopore sequencing and analysis.
(臨床金標(biāo)準(zhǔn)由培養(yǎng)物、細(xì)菌16SPCR和/或真菌28S-ITSPCR的共同結(jié)果,而復(fù)核標(biāo)準(zhǔn)還包括與Sanger的驗(yàn)證性數(shù)字PCR測序和臨床診斷。 對于< 6? h的納米孔測序,核酸提取需40~60? min,mNGS文庫制備需2~ 2.5?h,納米孔1D 建庫需1?h,納米孔測序分析需1?h。)

b, Analysis workflow for the 182?body fluid samples included in the study. 170?samples were included in the accuracy assessment while 12?samples collected from patients with a clinical diagnosis of infection but negative microbiological testing were included for mNGS analysis. The pie chart displays the body fluid sample types analyzed in the study.
(在準(zhǔn)確性評估中包括170個(gè)樣本,從臨床診斷感染的患者中收集的12個(gè)樣本,但對陰性微生物樣本進(jìn)行了mNGS檢測。餅圖顯示研究中分析的體液樣本類型。)

c, Timing for mNGS testing relative to culture. Whereas culture-based pathogen identification can take days to weeks, mNGS testing using nanopore or Illumina sequencing platforms has an overall turnaround time of 5–24?h.
(基于培養(yǎng)的病原體鑒定可能需要幾天到幾周,而使用納米孔或Illumina測序平臺(tái)進(jìn)行mNGS測試的總體運(yùn)行時(shí)間為5-24小時(shí)。)
