Antibody-based enrichment of peptides on magnetic beads for mass-spectrometry-based quantification of serum biomarkers.

ABSTRACT: A major bottleneck for validation of new clinical diagnostics is the development of highly sensitive and specific assays for quantifying proteins. We previously described a method, stable isotope standards with capture by antipeptide antibodies, wherein a specific tryptic peptide is selected as a stoichiometric representative of the protein from which it is cleaved, is enriched from biological samples using immobilized antibodies, and is quantitated using mass spectrometry against a spiked internal standard to yield a measure of protein concentration. In this study, we optimized a magnetic-bead-based platform amenable to high-throughput peptide capture and demonstrated that antibody capture followed by mass spectrometry can achieve ion signal enhancements on the order of 10(3), with precision (CVs <10%) and accuracy (relative error approximately 20%) sufficient for quantifying biomarkers in the physiologically relevant ng/mL range. These methods are generally applicable to any protein or biological fluid of interest and hold great potential for providing a desperately needed bridging technology between biomarker discovery and clinical application.

Project description:BackgroundOsteoarthritis (OA) is a slowly developing and debilitating disease, and there are no validated specific biomarkers for its early detection. To improve therapeutic approaches, identification of specific molecules/biomarkers enabling early determination of this disease is needed. This study aimed at identifying, with the use of proteomics/mass spectrometry, novel OA-specific serum biomarkers. As obesity is a major risk factor for OA, we discriminated obesity-regulated proteins to target only OA-specific proteins as biomarkers.MethodsSerum from the Osteoarthritis Initiative cohort was used and divided into 3 groups: controls (n=8), OA-obese (n=10) and OA-non-obese (n=10). Proteins were identified and quantified from the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analyses using MaxQuant software. Statistical analysis used the Limma test followed by the Benjamini-Hochberg method. To compare the proteomic profiles, the multivariate unsupervised principal component analysis (PCA) followed by the pairwise comparison was used. To select the most predictive/discriminative features, the supervised linear classification model sparse partial least squares regression discriminant analysis (sPLS-DA) was employed. Validation of three differential proteins was performed with protein-specific assays using plasma from a cohort derived from the Newfoundland Osteoarthritis.ResultsIn total, 509 proteins were identified, and 279 proteins were quantified. PCA-pairwise differential comparisons between the 3 groups revealed that 8 proteins were differentially regulated between the OA-obese and/or OA-non-obese with controls. Further experiments using the sPLS-DA revealed two components discriminating OA from controls (component 1, 9 proteins), and OA-obese from OA-non-obese (component 2, 23 proteins). Proteins from component 2 were considered related to obesity. In component 1, compared to controls, 7 proteins were significantly upregulated by both OA groups and 2 by the OA-obese. Among upregulated proteins from both OA groups, some of them alone would not be a suitable choice as specific OA biomarkers due to their rather non-specific role or their strong link to other pathological conditions. Altogether, data revealed that the protein CRTAC1 appears to be a strong OA biomarker candidate. Other potential new biomarker candidates are the proteins FBN1, VDBP, and possibly SERPINF1. Validation experiments revealed statistical differences between controls and OA for FBN1 (p=0.044) and VDPB (p=0.022), and a trend for SERPINF1 (p=0.064).ConclusionOur study suggests that 4 proteins, CRTAC1, FBN1, VDBP, and possibly SERPINF1, warrant further investigation as potential new biomarker candidates for the whole OA population.
