Alterations in the Salivary Proteome and N-Glycome of Sjogren's Syndrome Patients.

ABSTRACT: We used isobaric mass tagging (iTRAQ) and lectin affinity capture mass spectrometry (MS)-based workflows for global analyses of parotid saliva (PS) and whole saliva (WS) samples obtained from patients diagnosed with primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS) who were enrolled in the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance (SICCA) as compared with two control groups. The iTRAQ analyses revealed up- and down-regulation of numerous proteins that could be involved in the disease process (e.g., histones) or attempts to mitigate the ensuing damage (e.g., bactericidal/permeability increasing fold containing family (BPIF) members). An immunoblot approach applied to independent sample sets confirmed the pSS associated up-regulation of β2-microglobulin (in PS) and down-regulation of carbonic anhydrase VI (in WS) and BPIFB2 (in PS). Beyond the proteome, we profiled the N-glycosites of pSS and control samples. They were enriched for glycopeptides using lectins Aleuria aurantia and wheat germ agglutinin, which recognize fucose and sialic acid/N-acetyl glucosamine, respectively. MS analyses showed that pSS is associated with increased N-glycosylation of numerous salivary glycoproteins in PS and WS. The observed alterations of the salivary proteome and N-glycome could be used as pSS biomarkers enabling easier and earlier detection of this syndrome while lending potential new insights into the disease process.

Project description:There is a critical need to deconvolute the heterogeneity displayed by the minor salivary glands of primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) patients. This is challenging primarily because the disease etiology remains unknown. The hypothesis includes that initial events in the disease pathogenesis target the salivary glands, thereby triggering the development of focal infiltrates (≥50 mononuclear cells) and finally germinal center-like structures. However, the proportion of key mononuclear immune cells residing at these sites, in combination with the overall ratio of morphometric tissue atrophy and adipose infiltration within the minor salivary glands (MSG) parenchyma at distinct phases of inflammatory disease establishment and progression have not been quantified in detail. In this cross-sectional study, we intended to address this problem by stratifying 85 patients into mild (S1), moderate (S2), and severe (S3) stages using the Inflammatory severity index. We found that mild (<3%) and marked (≥3%) levels of atrophy were accompanied by the respective levels of adipose infiltration in the non-SS sicca controls (p <0.01), but not in pSS patients. The percentage of adipose infiltration significantly correlated with the age of patients (r = 0.458, p <0.0001) and controls (r = 0.515, p <0.0001). The CD4+ T helper cell incidence was reduced in the focal infiltrates of the MSG of S2 patients compared to S1 (p <0.01), and in S2 compared to S1 and S3 combined (p <0.05). CD20+ B cells increased from S1 to S3 (p <0.01) and S2 to S3 (p <0.01), meanwhile CD138+ plasma cells diminished in S3 patients compared to both S1 and S2 groups combined (p <0.01). The proportion of patients with anti-Ro/SSA+, anti-La/SSB+, and RF+ increased over the course of inflammatory disease progression and they were significantly more common in the S3 group relative to S1 (p <0.05). On the other hand, S2 patients measured a higher mean salivary flow relative to S1 and S3 patients combined (p <0.05). Our results demonstrate how the proposed Inflammatory severity index stratification revealed pathological cell and tissue-associated aberrations in the salivary component over the course of inflammatory progression, and their correlations to clinical outcomes. This could be directly transferred to the optimization of available diagnostic strategies applied for pSS patients.
