Project description:Successful vaccination against smallpox with conventional vaccinia virus is usually determined by the development of a vesicular skin lesion at the site of vaccinia inoculation, called a ‘take’. Although previous vaccination is known to be associated with attenuation of the take, the immunology that underlies a no-take in vaccinia-naïve individuals is not well understood. We hypothesized that antibody profiling of individuals before and after receiving vaccinia would reveal differences between takes and no-takes that may help better understand the phenomenon. Using vaccinia proteome microarrays and recombinant protein ELISAs we first examined the antibody response in vaccinia-naïve individuals that failed to take after receiving different doses of the replication competent smallpox vaccines, DryVax® and APSV. Most that received diluted vaccine failed to respond, whereas 4 other no-takes receiving diluted vaccine, and 4 receiving undiluted vaccine, mounted an antibody response. Interestingly, their antibody profiles were not significantly different from controls that did show a take. However, we did find elevated antibody titers in no-takes prior to receiving DryVax® that was significantly different from takes. Although the sample size studied was small, we conclude the failure to take in responders correlates with pre-existing immunity of unknown etiology that may attenuate the skin reaction in a way similar to previous smallpox vaccination. Antibody profiling was peformed on sera from vaccinees receiving smallpox vaccines, either Wyeth DryVax or Aventis Pasteur Vaccine ('WetVax') in NIH-sponsored clinical trials. These samples comprise 23 vaccinia naïve no-takes, and 50 vaccinia naïve takes and 25 previoulsy vaccinated takes as controls. Samples from d0 (day of vaccination) and at the peak of the antibody repsonse (d28) were taken from each donor and probed in triplicate against the proteome arrays.

Project description:Recent work has bolstered the possibility that peripheral changes may be relevant to Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis in the brain. While age-associated blood-borne proteins have been targeted to restore function to the aged brain, it remains unclear whether other dysfunctional systemic states can be exploited for similar benefits. Here we investigate whether APOE allelic variation or presence of brain amyloid are associated with plasma proteomic changes and the molecular processes associated with these changes. Using the SOMAscan assay, we measured 1,305 plasma proteins from 53 homozygous, APOE3 and APOE4 subjects without dementia. We investigated the relationship of either the APOE-ε4 allele or amyloid positivity with plasma proteome changes by linear mixed effects modeling and ontology-based pathway and module trait correlation analyses. APOE4 is associated with plasma protein differences linked to atherosclerosis, tyrosine kinase activity, cholesterol transport, extracellular matrix, and synaptogenesis pathways. Independent of APOE4, we found that subjects likely harboring brain amyloid exhibit plasma proteome signatures associated with AD-linked pathways, including neurovascular dysfunction. Our results indicate that APOE4 status or presence of brain amyloid are associated with plasma proteomic shifts prior to the onset of symptoms, suggesting that systemic pathways in certain risk contexts may be plausible targets for disease modification.

Project description:Human infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis results in a continuum of ill-defined, clinical manifestations with stable latent M. tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and severe active disease at the ends. Identifying different states of infection is of importance to tuberculosis (TB) control since risk of developing active disease varies among different asymptomatic states while infectiousness varies among patients with different bacterial burden. We investigated changes in proteome-scale antibody responses during disease progression in a non-human primate model of tuberculosis. We probed M. tuberculosis proteome microarrays with serial sera collected from three infection-outcome groups (active, reactivation, and latent). We found that each infection outcome is associated with characteristic changes in the antibody levels and number of antigenic targets, which suggested an association between antibody responses and bacillary burden. Additional proteome-scale serological profiling of > 400 human TB suspects established that antibody responses are positively associated with bacterial load. Thus tuberculosis-specific antibody levels and number of antigenic targets increases with disease progression. To investigate antibody responses during the course of infection, we probed M. tuberculosis proteome microarrays with serial sera collected from experimentally infected cynomolgus macaques. Based on infection outcome, the macaques were grouped into three classes; A) active disease (n = 4), B) latent infection (n=5) and C) reactivation disease (n = 5). Note that the macaques in the reactivation class developed signs of disease spontaneously without any experimental intervention. For each animal, we tested one pre-infection time point and approximately ten post-infection time points at one-month intervals.

Project description:The availability of human genome sequence has transformed biomedical research over the past decade. However, an equivalent map for the human proteome with direct measurements of proteins and peptides was lacking. To this end, Akhilesh Pandey's lab reported a draft map of the human proteome based on high resolution Fourier transform mass spectrometry-based proteomics technology, which included an in-depth proteomic profiling of 30 histologically normal human samples including 17 adult tissues, 7 fetal tissues and 6 purified primary hematopoietic cells ( http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature13302 ). The profiling resulted in identification of proteins encoded by greater than 17,000 genes accounting for ~84% of the total annotated protein-coding genes in humans. This large human proteome catalog (available as an interactive web-based resource at http://www.humanproteomemap.org) complements available human genome and transcriptome data to accelerate biomedical research in health and disease. Pandey's lab and collaborators request that those considering use of this primary dataset for commercial purposes contact pandey@jhmi.edu. The full details of this study can be found in the PRIDE database: www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/archive/projects/PXD000561/. This ArrayExpress entry represents a top level summary of the metadata only which formed the basis of the reanalysis performed by Joyti Choudhary's team ( jc4@sanger.ac.uk ), results of which are presented in the Expression Atlas at EMBL-EBI : http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gxa/experiments/E-PROT-1.
