    Abstract: Patients with isolated pulmonary embolism (PE) have a distinct clinical profile from those with deep vein thrombosis (DVT)-associated PE, with more pulmonary conditions and atherosclerosis. These findings suggest a distinct molecular pathophysiology and the potential involvement of alternative pathways in isolated PE. To test this hypothesis, data from 532 individuals from the Genotyping and Molecular Phenotyping of Venous ThromboEmbolism Project, a multicenter prospective cohort study with extensive biobanking, were analyzed. Targeted, high-throughput proteomics, machine learning, and bioinformatic methods were applied to contrast the acute-phase plasma proteomes of isolated PE patients (n = 96) against those of patients with DVT-associated PE (n = 276) or isolated DVT (n = 160). This resulted in the identification of shared molecular processes between PE phenotypes, as well as an isolated PE-specific protein signature. Shared processes included upregulation of inflammation, response to oxidative stress, and the loss of pulmonary surfactant. The isolated PE-specific signature consisted of 5 proteins: interferon-γ, glial cell line–derived neurotrophic growth factor, polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 3, peptidyl arginine deiminase type-2, and interleukin-15 receptor subunit α. These proteins were orthogonally validated using cis protein quantitative trait loci. External replication in an independent population-based cohort (n = 5778) further validated the proteomic results and showed that they were prognostic for incident primary isolated PE in individuals without history of VTE (median time to event: 2.9 years; interquartile range: 1.6-4.2 years), supporting their possible involvement in the early pathogenesis. This study has identified molecular overlaps and differences between VTE phenotypes. In particular, the results implicate noncanonical pathways more commonly associated with respiratory and atherosclerotic disease in the acute pathophysiology of isolated PE.

    Abstract: The obesity paradox, the controversial finding that obesity promotes disease development but protects against sequelae in patients, has been observed in venous thromboembolism (VTE). The aim of this investigation was to identify a body mass–related proteomic signature in VTE patients and to evaluate whether this signature mediates the obesity paradox in VTE patients. Data from the Genotyping and Molecular Phenotyping in Venous ThromboEmbolism Project, a prospective cohort study of 693 VTE patients, were analyzed. A combined end point of recurrent VTE or all-cause death was used. Relative quantification of 444 proteins was performed using high-throughput targeted proteomics technology. Measurements were performed in samples collected during the acute VTE event and at 12-month follow-up. An 11-protein signature (CLEC4C, FABP4, FLT3LG, IL-17C, LEP, LYVE1, MASP1, ST2, THBS2, THBS4, TSLP) for body mass in VTE patients was identified. The signature did not significantly mediate the obesity paradox (change in hazard ratio [HR]: 0.04; likelihood ratio test of nested models = 7.7; P = .74), but its main constituent protein, leptin, was inversely associated with recurrent VTE or death (adjusted HR [95% confidence interval] per standard deviation increase: 0.66 [0.46-0.94]). This relationship was significantly (P = .007) modified by markers of leptin resistance (ie, high body mass index and high circulating matrix metalloproteinase-2 levels). Although the signature did not substantially explain the obesity paradox, leptin appears to be protective against disease recurrence and death in VTE patients. This protective effect was abrogated under conditions of leptin resistance and hence was unrelated to the obesity paradox.
