[0002] Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular dysplasia disease characterized by dilated venous vessels and capillaries, with an incidence of about 0.16% to 0.5%. CCM often causes symptoms such as epilepsy, hemorrhagic stroke, headache, or focal neurological deficits, which seriously threatens the life safety of patients. CCM can be caused by gene mutations, for example, CCM1 / KRIT1, CCM2 / MGC4607, and CCM3 / PDCD10 CCM gene family mutations can all cause CCM lesions.

[0003] In the treatment of CCM, the corresponding gene mutation type is first determined, and a suitable treatment method is adopted according to the gene mutation type, which can effectively improve the treatment effect.

[0056] The specific embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0057] The first aspect of the present disclosure provides a system for identifying the gene mutation type of a cerebral cavernous malformation patient, the system comprising an image input device, a computing device and an output device; the image input device is used to input the imaging examination image of the head of the cerebral cavernous malformation patient; the computing device comprises a memory and a processor, the memory stores a computer program, and the processor is configured to execute the computer program stored in the memory to realize the following discrimination: judging the lesion characteristics of the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image input by the image input device; if the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image is characterized by punctate multifocal lesions, it is determined that the cerebral cavernous malformation patient has CCM gene germ cell mutation; if the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image is characterized by popcorn lesions, it is determined that the cerebral cavernous malformation patient has MAP3K3 c.1323C>G type gene mutation; the output device is used to output the discrimination result of the computing device.

[0058] In addition, the present inventors have found that if the imaging examination image corresponds to a cerebral cavernous malformation characterized by subacute hemorrhage, it indicates that the cerebral cavernous malformation patient may have CCM gene somatic cell mutation.

[0059] In the present disclosure, the system provided by the present disclosure can determine the gene mutation type of the cerebral cavernous malformation patient based on the imaging examination image of the cerebral cavernous malformation of the cerebral cavernous malformation patient, and therefore the present disclosure provides a non-invasive method for determining the gene mutation type corresponding to CCM, at least partially enriches the diagnosis method of CCM, and can provide a strong basis for the rationalization and targeted treatment of CCM.

[0060] The MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation can activate the CCM1 / 2 / 3 inhibited ERK5 signal, can activate the ERK1 / 2, JNK and p38 pathways by inducing the enhanced kinase activity of MEKK3, and specifically, the expression of PDGFRb (MIM: 173410), FGF1 (MIM: 131220), FGFR2 (MIM: 176943), GPER1 (MIM: 601805), MT3 (MIM: 139255), NDRG4 (MIM: 614463) and TREM2 (MIM: 605086) in the endothelial cells of the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation is up-regulated, indicating that ERK1 and ERK2 are activated.

[0061] Furthermore, after determining that the patient with cavernous malformation has a MAP3K3 c.1323C>G type gene mutation, the processor can also be used to: determine that the patient with cavernous malformation does not have a CCM1 / 2 / 3 type gene mutation.

[0062] To reveal the genetic landscape of CCM, deep whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on fresh frozen surgical specimens and corresponding peripheral blood samples from 38 patients in the discovery cohort. Using MUTracer, four germline mutations affecting the CCM1 and CCM3 genes, as well as 16 non-synonymous somatic mutations, were identified, located in CCM1, CCM2, MAP3K3 (MIM:602539), PIK3CA (MIM:171834), and MAP2K7 (MIM:6030142), respectively. Figure 1 As shown.

[0063] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that, under statistically consistent conditions (P=0.04), among the 38 patients in the cohort, 12 patients with CCM1 / 2 / 3 mutations (D29, D06, D13, D36, D32, D14, D21, D17, D19, D27, D18, D31) did not have the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation, while 9 patients with the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation (D24, D16, D12, D09, D22, D04, D33, D28, D03) did not have the CCM1 / 2 / 3 mutation. This indicates that the MAP3K3c.1323C>G mutation and the CCM1 / 2 / 3 mutation cannot coexist in patients; they are mutually exclusive.

[0064] According to this disclosure, the memory may also store feature data of cavernous malformations. When the computing device determines the pathological features of the cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image input by the image input device, it can compare the imaging examination image with the feature data of the cavernous malformation to obtain a comparison result. Then, based on the comparison result, it can determine the pathological features of the cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image.

[0065] According to this disclosure, the characteristic data of the cavernous malformation can vary within a certain range. For example, the characteristic data of the cavernous malformation may include a cavernous malformation image library, which may contain preset images. The preset images may include type I images, type II images, type III images, and type IV images. Among them, the type I images are characterized by subacute hemorrhage, the type II images are characterized by popcorn-like lesions, the type III images are characterized by chronic hemorrhage, and the type IV images are characterized by punctate multifocal lesions.

[0066] Specifically, according to the Zabramski classification, based on imaging examination images, the CCM lesions of the above patients can be divided into four subtypes: Type I is characterized by subacute hemorrhage, Type II by popcorn-like lesions, Type III by chronic hemorrhage, and Type IV by punctate multifocal lesions. Among these, for example... Figure 2 As shown, in MRI images, type I appears as a high signal on T1- and T2-weighted imaging, type II appears as a typical mulberry-like lesion on T1- and T2-weighted imaging, type III appears as a small punctate lesion on T1- and T2-weighted imaging, and type IV appears as multiple punctate lesions on susceptibility-weighted imaging sequences. In CT images, type I appears as a high-density hemorrhage; type II generally shows poor or no contrast enhancement, but calcifications can sometimes be seen on CT images; types III and IV are generally not visible on CT.

[0067] The preset images can be, for example, historical diagnostic imaging images corresponding to different lesion characteristics, or standard images simulated by machine learning from historical diagnostic imaging images. Each subtype may have only one preset image or multiple preset images.

[0068] Furthermore, comparing the imaging examination image with the feature data of the cavernous malformation to obtain the comparison result may include: performing image matching between the imaging examination image and a preset image in the cavernous malformation image database to obtain the image classification corresponding to the imaging examination image.

[0069] Specifically, the method for matching imaging examination images with preset images in the image library can be a conventional image matching algorithm and / or image similarity comparison algorithm in the field, such as the mean absolute difference algorithm (MAD), the sum of absolute errors algorithm (SAD), the sum of squared errors algorithm (SSD), the mean sum of squared errors algorithm (MSD), the normalized product correlation algorithm (NCC), the sequential similarity detection algorithm (SSDA), the Hadamard transform algorithm (SATD), and other algorithms.

[0070] Further, the determining the lesion feature of the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the imageology examination image according to the comparison result can comprise: if the imageology examination image corresponds to the image classification of type II, determining that the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the imageology examination image is characterized by popcorn-like lesion; and if the imageology examination image corresponds to the image classification of type IV, determining that the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the imageology examination image is characterized by punctate multifocal lesion.

[0071] Optionally, the imageology examination image comprises a magnetic resonance image and / or a CT image; and the system can further comprise an image acquisition device; preferably, the image acquisition device can be a magnetic resonance imaging device and / or a CT scanning device. The image acquisition device can be connected to the image input device correspondingly, and can transmit the imageology examination image acquired thereby to the image input device.

[0072] The second aspect of the present disclosure provides a system for determining a treatment scheme for a patient with brain cavernous hemangioma, which comprises an image input device, a computing device and an output device; the image input device is used for inputting an imageology examination image of the head of the patient with brain cavernous hemangioma; the computing device comprises a memory and a processor, the memory stores a computer program, and the processor is configured to execute the computer program stored in the memory to realize the following discrimination: judging the lesion feature of the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the imageology examination image input by the image input device; if the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the imageology examination image is characterized by punctate multifocal lesion, determining that the treatment scheme for the patient with brain cavernous hemangioma comprises a treatment scheme targeting CCM gene germ cell mutation; if the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the imageology examination image is characterized by popcorn-like lesion, determining that the treatment scheme for the patient with brain cavernous hemangioma comprises a treatment scheme targeting MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation or MAPK downstream pathway; and the output device is used for outputting the discrimination result of the computing device.

[0073] In the present disclosure, specifically, since the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation can activate the MAPK downstream pathway, when it is determined that the brain cavernous hemangioma corresponding to the magnetic resonance image is characterized by popcorn-like lesion, it can be determined that the patient to be tested has MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation, and further, it can be determined that the treatment scheme for the patient to be tested comprises a treatment scheme targeting MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation or MAPK downstream pathway.

[0074] Further, after determining that the treatment scheme for the patient with the cerebral cavernous malformation includes a treatment scheme targeting the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G mutation or a MAPK downstream pathway, the processor is further configured to determine that the treatment scheme for the patient with the cerebral cavernous malformation does not include a treatment scheme targeting the CCM1 / 2 / 3 mutation.

[0075] Optionally, the memory further stores characteristic data of the cerebral cavernous malformation, and the determining of the lesion characteristics of the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image input by the image input device comprises: comparing the imaging examination image with the characteristic data of the cerebral cavernous malformation to obtain a comparison result; and determining the lesion characteristics of the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image according to the comparison result.

[0076] Optionally, the characteristic data of the cerebral cavernous malformation comprises a cerebral cavernous malformation image library, and the cerebral cavernous malformation image library contains preset images, the preset images comprising type I images, type II images, type III images, and type IV images, wherein the type I images are characterized by subacute hemorrhage, the type II images are characterized by popcorn-like lesions, the type III images are characterized by chronic hemorrhage, and the type IV images are characterized by punctate multifocal lesions.

[0077] Further, the comparing of the imaging examination image with the characteristic data of the cerebral cavernous malformation to obtain a comparison result can comprise: performing image matching of the imaging examination image with the preset images in the cerebral cavernous malformation image library to obtain an image classification corresponding to the imaging examination image.

[0078] Further, the determining of the lesion characteristics of the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image according to the comparison result comprises: if the image classification corresponding to the imaging examination image is type II, determining that the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image is characterized by popcorn-like lesions; and if the image classification corresponding to the imaging examination image is type IV, determining that the cerebral cavernous malformation corresponding to the imaging examination image is characterized by punctate multifocal lesions.

[0079] Optionally, the imaging examination image comprises a magnetic resonance image and / or a CT image; and the system can further comprise an image acquisition device; preferably, the image acquisition device is a magnetic resonance imaging device and / or a CT scanning device.

[0080] The present disclosure will be further described by way of examples, but the present disclosure is not limited in any way by the examples. The raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment involved in the examples of the present disclosure can be obtained by purchase, unless otherwise specified.

[0081] Example 1

[0082] This example is used to illustrate that the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation exists in patients with cerebral cavernous malformations characterized by popcorn-like lesions.

[0083] Based on the magnetic resonance images of 38 CCM patients, the CCM lesion types of the above-mentioned patients are classified into four subtypes according to the Zabramski classification method: Type I is characterized by subacute hemorrhage, Type II is characterized by popcorn-like lesions, Type III is characterized by chronic hemorrhage, and Type IV is characterized by punctate multifocal lesions. After classification, among the 38 CCM patients, 25 cases are Type I CCM lesions, 7 cases are Type II CCM lesions, 0 cases are Type III CCM lesions, and 6 cases are Type IV CCM lesions, as shown in Table 1. The magnetic resonance images corresponding to the above-mentioned four CCM lesion subtypes are shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 Figure 2

[0084] Using the operation in accordance with the standard of medical ethics committee, the CCM lesion tissue medical waste obtained after surgical treatment of the above-mentioned 38 CCM patients is collected, classified according to the CCM lesion subtype, and frozen for preservation as a discovery sample. Each patient whose sample is collected has obtained the consent of himself / herself and his / her treatment expert before the sample is collected, and has written proof materials.

[0085] The discovery samples of the above-mentioned four subtypes are detected by droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR), and the detection results are shown in Table 2. The detection results (P<0.001) show that the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation exists in 2 / 25 cases of Type I, 7 / 7 cases of Type II, and 0 / 6 cases of Type IV. Statistical regularity shows that the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation exists in patients with magnetic resonance images showing Type II. Figure 3

[0086] Example 2

[0087] This example is used to verify that the cerebral cavernous malformation patients with the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation are patients with popcorn-like lesion characteristics.

[0088] Using the operation in accordance with the standard of medical ethics committee, the CCM lesion tissue medical waste obtained after surgical treatment of 56 CCM patients is collected as a verification sample. Each patient whose sample is collected has obtained the consent of himself / herself and his / her treatment expert before the sample is collected, and has written proof materials.

[0089] ​​​The sequencing results of the digital polymerase chain reaction on the above-mentioned found samples show that the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation exists in 25 verification samples, and the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation does not exist in the remaining verification samples.

[0090] The magnetic resonance detection is performed on the patients corresponding to the above-mentioned 25 verification samples with the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation, and the subtypes of each patient are determined based on the obtained magnetic resonance images. The detection results show that 4 of them are type I, 17 are type II, and 4 are type III. It can be seen that the gene mutation detection results are basically consistent with the magnetic resonance detection results, and the deviation conforms to the statistical law, which indicates that the system of the present disclosure can accurately identify the patients with the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation according to the magnetic resonance images of the CCM patients.

[0091] Example 3

[0092] The found samples (38 patients) in Example 1 and the verification samples (56 patients) in Example 2 are taken as experimental samples (94 patients) together, and the subtype classification is performed based on the magnetic resonance images. Among them, 52 are type I, 26 are type II, 5 are type III, and 11 are type IV.

[0093] The droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) detection is performed respectively, and the detection results show that the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation exists in 6 / 52 cases of type I (0.12), 24 / 26 cases of type II (0.92), 0 / 11 cases of type IV (0), and 4 / 5 cases of type III (0.80).

[0094] Based on the above detection results, a two-step decision tree model for inferring the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation based on radiological evaluation is provided, as shown in Figure 4 wherein the numbers at each node represent the probability of the occurrence of the MAP3K3 c.1323C>G gene mutation. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC ROC) of the above-mentioned model is 0.97 and 0.92 respectively in the found samples and the verification samples, as shown in Figure 5 which indicates that the system of the present disclosure has high credibility.

[0095] Based on the above detection results, a two-step decision tree model for inferring the CCM gene germ cell mutation based on radiological evaluation is provided, as shown in Figure 6 wherein the numbers at each node represent the probability of the occurrence of the CCM gene germ cell mutation. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC ROC) of the above-mentioned model is 0.85, as shown in Figure 7As shown, it is illustrated that the system of the present disclosure has high credibility.
