Project description:Although current LC-MS technology permits scientists to efficiently screen clinical samples in translational research, e.g. steroids, biogenic amines and even plasma or serum proteomes, in a daily routine, maintaining the balance between throughput and analytical depth is still a limiting factor. A typical approach to enhance the proteome depth is employing offline 2-dimensional (2D) fractionation techniques before nanoLC-MS/MS analysis. These additional sample preparation steps usually require extensive sample manipulation, which could result in sample alteration and sample loss. The consequent results variability increase the risk of false discovery, regardless of time-intensive sample preparation workload. Here we present and compare 1D-nanoLC-MS with an automated online-2D high-pH RP x low pH RP separation method for deep proteome profiling using a nanoLC system coupled to a high-resolution accurate-mass mass spectrometer. The proof-of-principle study permitted the identification of ca. 500 proteins with ~10,000 peptides in 15 enzymatically digested crude serum samples collected from healthy donors in 3 laboratories across Europe. The developed method identified 60% more peptides in comparison with conventional 1D nanoLC-MS/SM analysis with ca. 4 times lower throughput while retaining the quantitative information. Serum sample preparation artifacts were revealed by applying unsupervised classification techniques, and, therefore, must be taken into account while planning multicentric biomarker discovery and validation studies. Overall, this novel method reduces sample complexity and boosts the number of peptide and protein identifications without the need for extra sample handling procedures for samples equivalent to less than 1 µL of blood, which expands the space for potential biomarker discovery by looking deeper into the composition of biofluids.

Project description:The demand for novel three-dimensional (3D) cell culture models of adipose tissue has been increasing, and proteomic investigations are important for determining the underlying causes of obesity, type II diabetes, and metabolic disorders. In this study, we performed global quantitative proteomic profiling of three 3D-cultured 3T3-L1 cells (preadipocytes, adipocytes and co-cultured adipocytes with macrophages) and their 2D-cultured counterparts using 2D-nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS with iTRAQ labelling. A total of 2,885 shared proteins from six types of adipose cells were identified and quantified in four replicates. Among them, 48 proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism (e.g., PDHα, MDH1/2, FH) and the mitochondrial fatty acid beta oxidation pathway (e.g., VLCAD, ACADM, ECHDC1, ALDH6A1) were relatively up-regulated in the 3D co-culture model compared to those in 2D and 3D mono-cultured cells. Conversely, 12 proteins implicated in cellular component organisation (e.g., ANXA1, ANXA2) and the cell cycle (e.g., MCM family proteins) were down-regulated. These quantitative assessments showed that the 3D co-culture system of adipocytes and macrophages led to the development of insulin resistance, thereby providing a promising in vitro obesity model that is more equivalent to the in vivo conditions with respect to the mechanisms underpinning metabolic syndromes and the effect of new medical treatments for metabolic disorders.

Project description:An online, two-dimensional (2D) liquid chromatography (LC) quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (QToF-MS) method was developed for lipid profiling of rat peritoneal surface layers, in which the lipid classes and species could be simultaneously separated in one injection with a significantly increased sensitivity. Different lipid classes were separated on a normal-phase column in the first dimension and lipid molecular species were separated on a reversed-phase column in the second dimension, so that the ion suppression effects were reduced while the detection sensitivity was improved. Identified were 721 endogenous lipid species from 12 lipid classes, in which 415 structures were confirmed using tandem mass spectra, and the other 306 lipid molecular species were identified by accurate masses. The linearity, limit of detection, and repeatability were all satisfactory. The method was applied to the investigation of the lipid changes in rat peritoneal surface layer after peritoneal dialysis, and 32 potential lipid biomarkers were identified, as their concentrations in the dosed group were 2.2-12.5 times of those in the control group. The results revealed that this 2D LC-MS system was a promising tool for lipid profiling of complex biological samples.

Project description:The objective of the present investigation was to consider the level of variation in the protein expression patterns of closely related Salmonella serovars, in order to search for protein factors with levels of expression or posttranslational modifications characteristic for each serovar. For the comparative expression analysis we have utilised classic 2D GE approach which revealed several proteins with serovar specific expression as well as proteins which do not alter their expression levels between serovars and strains. The proteins of interest were identified using LC/MS/MS. Keywords: 2D GE, MS/MS

Project description:HPLC has been employed for decades to enhance detection sensitivity and quantification of complex analytes within biological mixtures. Among these analytes, glycans released from glycoproteins and glycolipids have been characterized as underivatized or fluorescently tagged derivatives by HPLC coupled to various detection methods. These approaches have proven extremely useful for profiling the structural diversity of glycoprotein and glycolipid glycosylation but require the availability of glycan standards and secondary orthogonal degradation strategies to validate structural assignments. A robust method for HPLC separation of glycans as their permethylated derivatives, coupled with in-line multidimensional ion fragmentation (MSn) to assign structural features independent of standards, would significantly enhance the depth of knowledge obtainable from biological samples. Here, we report an optimized workflow for LC-MS analysis of permethylated glycans that includes sample preparation, mobile phase optimization, and MSn method development to resolve structural isomers on-the-fly. We report baseline separation and MSn of isomeric N- and O-glycan structures, aided by supplementing mobile phases with Li+, which simplifies adduct heterogeneity and facilitates cross-ring fragmentation to obtain valuable monosaccharide linkage information. Our workflow has been adapted from standard proteomics-based workflows and, therefore, provides opportunities for laboratories with expertise in proteomics to acquire glycomic data with minimal deviation from existing buffer systems, chromatography media, and instrument configurations. Furthermore, our workflow does not require a mass spectrometer with high-resolution/accurate mass capabilities. The rapidly evolving appreciation of the biological significance of glycans for human health and disease requires the implementation of high-throughput methods to identify and quantify glycans harvested from sample sets of sufficient size to achieve appropriately powered statistical significance. The LC-MSn approach we report generates glycan isomeric separations and robust structural characterization and is amenable to autosampling with associated throughput enhancements.

Project description:The development of novel high-resolution separation techniques is crucial for advancing the complex sample analysis necessary for high-throughput top-down proteomics. Recently, our group developed an offline 2D high-pH RPLC/low-pH RPLC separation method and demonstrated good orthogonality between these two RPLC formats. Specifically, ultrahigh-pressure long capillary column RPLC separation has been applied as the second dimensional low-pH RPLC separation for the improvement of separation resolution. To further improve the throughput and sensitivity of the offline approach, we developed an online 2D ultrahigh-pressure nano-LC system for high-pH and low-pH RPLC separations in top-down proteomics. An online microtrap column with a dilution setup was used to collect eluted proteins from the first dimension high-pH separation and inject the fractions for ultrahigh-pressure long capillary column low-pH RPLC separation in the second dimension. This automatic platform enables the characterization of 1000+ intact proteoforms from 5 μg of intact E. coli cell lysate in 10 online-collected fractions. Here, we have demonstrated that our online 2D pH RP/RPLC system coupled with top-down proteomics holds the potential for deep proteome characterization of mass-limited samples because it allows the identification of hundreds of intact proteoforms from complex biological samples at low microgram sample amounts.

Project description:Fractionation prior to mass spectrometry is an indispensable step in proteomics. In this paper we report the success of performing offline reversed phase high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) fractionation on a C18 2.0 mm×150 mm column at the peptide level with microliter per minute flow rates prior to online nano-flow reversed phase liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS) using the well-studied fungus Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A C18 75 μm×150 mm column was used online and the online elution gradients for each fraction were adjusted in order to obtain well resolved separation. Comparing this method directly to only performing nanoLC-MS we observed a 61.6% increase in the number of identified proteins. At a 1% false discovery rate 1028 proteins were identified using two dimensions of RPLC versus 636 proteins identified in a single nano-flow separation. The majority of proteins identified by one dimension of nano-LC were present in the proteins identified in our two dimensional strategy. Although increasing analysis time, this non-orthogonal and facile pre-fractionation method affords a more comprehensive examination of the proteome.

Project description:Glycated proteins are emerging as good indicators for diabetes and age related diseases. However, the platform for analysis of glycated proteome has been relatively less well established. We here introduce an online 2D-LC-HCD-MS/MS platform for comprehensive glycated peptide quantification. This platform includes a boronate affinity column in the first dimension for enrichment, reversed phase nanoLC column in the second dimension for separation, a benchtop Orbitrap mass spectrometer with HCD-MS/MS for peptide sequencing, and MaxQuant bioinformatics tool for identification and quantification of glycated peptides. This online 2D-LC-HCD-MS/MS platform has high enrichment efficiency with 85% of identified peptides in the enriched fraction as glycated, high sensitivity for detection of glycated peptides with LOD and LOQ at 1.2 and 2.4 pg, respectively, and high reproducibility with interday CVs < 20% for 80% of the glycated peptides. The number of glycated peptides quantified in in vitro glycated human plasma increased more than 3-fold using this platform in comparison to that obtained using 1D-LC-HCD-MS/MS platform without boronate affinity enrichment. Application of this online platform to human plasma identified 376 glycated peptides from 10 μg of protein digests. This highly sensitive and reproducible online 2D platform is promising for glycated protein analysis of complex clinical samples.
