Simple targeted assays for metabolic pathways and signaling: a powerful tool for targeted proteomics

ABSTRACT: We introduce STAMPS, a pathway centric web service for the development of targeted proteomics assays. STAMPS guides the user by providing several intuitive interfaces for a rapid and simplified method design. Applying our curated framework to signaling and metabolic pathways, we reduced average assay development time by a factor of ~150 and revealed that the insulin signaling is actively controlled by protein abundance changes in insulin sensitive and resistance states.

We introduce STAMPS, a pathway-centric web service for the development of targeted proteomics assays. STAMPS guides the user by providing several intuitive interfaces for a rapid and simplified method design. Applying our curated framework to signaling and metabolic pathways, we reduced the average assay development time by a factor of ∼150 and revealed that the insulin signaling is actively controlled by protein abundance changes in insulin-sensitive and -resistance states. Although at the curr ...[more]

Project description:Aims/hypothesis AGEs are considered environmental contributors of type 1 diabetes, but the exact role AGEs play early in pathogenesis of the disease, remains unidentified. We aimed to reduce AGEs with the pharmacotherapy alagebrium chloride in MIN6N8 cells and early in life in NOD mice to determine its impact on beta cell immunogenicity, function, and disease progression. Methods MIN6N8 cells were cultured with AGEs with or without short-term alagebrium therapy to determine the effect on ER stress and beta cell antigen presentation via a reporter assay for protein responses in the unfolded protein response, the enzymatic activity of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase-1 (ERAP1) and the immunopeptidome. To determine the effect of short-term alagebrium therapy on beta cells in vivo, female NOD mice were treated with alagebrium and insulin secretion, insulitis, and immune cell repertoire were studied. Adoptive transfer studies and diabetes progression studies were used to consider the impact of alagebrium on immune cell function and disease outcome. Results In MIN6N8 cells, alagebrium therapy inhibited the induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the activity of ERAP1 by AGE-modified proteins. Alagebrium treated-MIN6N8 cells did not change the MHC Class I presentation of known beta cell antigens but did induce proteomic changes related to ER homeostatic pathways. Prior to overt autoimmune diabetes, female NOD mice treated with alagebrium for 30-40 days had improved insulin secretion, reduced insulitis and amplified proportions of pancreatic CD8+ T cells, mature B cells and F4/80+ macrophages. Splenocytes from alagebrium-treated mice adoptively transferred disease to NODscid recipients and maintained interferon production in vitro. While partial protection of islets by alagebrium was seen following the adoptive transfer of activated NOD G9C8 transgenic TCR CD8+ T cells, alagebrium therapy in NOD mice did not reduce diabetes progression. Conclusions/interpretation Our data suggests that in experimental models of diabetes, short-term alagebrium treatment allows for beta cell improvement, and maintenance of immune cell function, which does not fully mitigate diabetes progression.

Project description:Myotonic Dystrophy type 2 (DM2) is an autosomal-dominant, multisystemic disease with a core manifestation of proximal muscle weakness, muscle atrophy, myotonia, and myalgia. The disease-causing CCTG tetranucleotide expansion within the CNBP gene on chromosome 3 leads to an RNA-dominated spliceopathy which is currently untreatable. Research exploring the pathophysiological mechanisms in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 resulted in new insights into disease mechanisms and identified mitochondrial dysfunction as promising therapeutic target. It remains unclear whether similar mechanisms underlie DM2 and, if so, whether these might also serve as potential therapeutic targets. In this cross-sectional study, we studied DM2 skeletal muscle biopsy specimens on proteomic, molecular, and morphological including ultrastructural levels in two separate patient cohorts consisting of 8 (explorative cohort) and 40 (confirmatory cohort) patients. Seven muscle biopsy specimens obtained from four female and three male DM2 patients underwent proteomic analysis. We performed immunoblotting of respiratory chain complexes, mitochondrial DNA copy number determination and long-range PCR (LR-PCR) to study mitochondrial deletions on six biopsies. Forty-eight biopsy samples were studied by light and electron microscopy. Proteomic analysis revealed a downregulation of essential mitochondrial proteins, namely of subunits of respiratory chain complexes I, III, and IV (e.g. mt-CO1, mt-ND1, mt-CYB, NDUFB6) and associated translation factors (TACO1). Light microscopy showed an age-inappropriate amount of COX-deficient fibers in most biopsy specimens. Electron microscopy revealed widespread ultrastructural mitochondrial abnormalities including dysmorphic mitochondria with paracrystalline inclusions. Immunoblotting and LR-PCR did not reveal significant differences between patients and controls, while mtDNA-copy number measurement revealed a reduction of mtDNA-copy numbers in the patient group compared to controls. This first multi-level study of DM2 unravels thus far undescribed functional and structural mitochondrial abnormalities. While the molecular link between the tetranucleotide expansion, and mitochondrial dysfunction needs to be further elucidated, these findings may provide an additional route for treatment strategies for DM2.
