Reproducibility of Differential Proteomic Technologies in CPTAC Fractionated Xenografts.

ABSTRACT: The NCI Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) employed a pair of reference xenograft proteomes for initial platform validation and ongoing quality control of its data collection for The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) tumors. These two xenografts, representing basal and luminal-B human breast cancer, were fractionated and analyzed on six mass spectrometers in a total of 46 replicates divided between iTRAQ and label-free technologies, spanning a total of 1095 LC-MS/MS experiments. These data represent a unique opportunity to evaluate the stability of proteomic differentiation by mass spectrometry over many months of time for individual instruments or across instruments running dissimilar workflows. We evaluated iTRAQ reporter ions, label-free spectral counts, and label-free extracted ion chromatograms as strategies for data interpretation (source code is available from http://homepages.uc.edu/~wang2x7/Research.htm ). From these assessments, we found that differential genes from a single replicate were confirmed by other replicates on the same instrument from 61 to 93% of the time. When comparing across different instruments and quantitative technologies, using multiple replicates, differential genes were reproduced by other data sets from 67 to 99% of the time. Projecting gene differences to biological pathways and networks increased the degree of similarity. These overlaps send an encouraging message about the maturity of technologies for proteomic differentiation.

A Description of the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) Common Data Analysis Pipeline.

Project description:The Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) has produced large proteomics data sets from the mass spectrometric interrogation of tumor samples previously analyzed by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) program. The availability of the genomic and proteomic data is enabling proteogenomic study for both reference (i.e., contained in major sequence databases) and nonreference markers of cancer. The CPTAC laboratories have focused on colon, breast, and ovarian tissues in the first round of analyses; spectra from these data sets were produced from 2D liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analyses and represent deep coverage. To reduce the variability introduced by disparate data analysis platforms (e.g., software packages, versions, parameters, sequence databases, etc.), the CPTAC Common Data Analysis Platform (CDAP) was created. The CDAP produces both peptide-spectrum-match (PSM) reports and gene-level reports. The pipeline processes raw mass spectrometry data according to the following: (1) peak-picking and quantitative data extraction, (2) database searching, (3) gene-based protein parsimony, and (4) false-discovery rate-based filtering. The pipeline also produces localization scores for the phosphopeptide enrichment studies using the PhosphoRS program. Quantitative information for each of the data sets is specific to the sample processing, with PSM and protein reports containing the spectrum-level or gene-level ("rolled-up") precursor peak areas and spectral counts for label-free or reporter ion log-ratios for 4plex iTRAQ. The reports are available in simple tab-delimited formats and, for the PSM-reports, in mzIdentML. The goal of the CDAP is to provide standard, uniform reports for all of the CPTAC data to enable comparisons between different samples and cancer types as well as across the major omics fields.

Reproducibility of 18F-FDG microPET studies in mouse tumor xenografts.

Project description:UNLABELLED:(18)F-FDG has been used to image mouse xenograft models with small-animal PET for therapy response. However, the reproducibility of serial scans has not been determined. The purpose of this study was to determine the reproducibility of (18)F-FDG small-animal PET studies. METHODS:Mouse tumor xenografts were formed with B16F10 murine melanoma cells. A 7-min small-animal PET scan was performed 1 h after a 3.7- to 7.4-MBq (18)F-FDG injection via the tail vein. A second small-animal PET scan was performed 6 h later after reinjection of (18)F-FDG. Twenty-five sets of studies were performed. Mean injected dose per gram (%ID/g) values were calculated from tumor regions of interest. The coefficient of variation (COV) from studies performed on the same day was calculated to determine the reproducibility. Activity from the second scans performed after 6 h were adjusted by subtracting the estimated residual activity from the first (18)F-FDG injection. For 7 datasets, an additional scan immediately before the second injection was performed, and residual activity from this additional delayed scan was subtracted from the activity of the second injection. COVs of both subtraction methods were compared. Blood glucose values were measured at the time of injection and used to correct the %ID/g values. RESULTS:The COV for the mean %ID/g between (18)F-FDG small-animal PET scans performed on the same day 6 h apart was 15.4% +/- 12.6%. The delayed scan subtraction method did not produce any significant change in the COV. Blood glucose correction increased the COV. The injected dose, tumor size, and body weight did not appear to contribute to the variability of the scans. CONCLUSION:(18)F-FDG small-animal PET mouse xenograft studies were reproducible with moderately low variability. Therefore, serial small-animal PET studies may be performed with reasonable accuracy to measure tumor response to therapy.

Proteomic technologies for the study of osteosarcoma.

Project description:Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone cancer of children and is established during stages of rapid bone growth. The disease is a consequence of immature osteoblast differentiation, which gives way to a rapidly synthesized incompletely mineralized and disorganized bone matrix. The mechanism of osteosarcoma tumorogenesis is poorly understood, and few proteomic studies have been used to interrogate the disease thus far. Accordingly, these studies have identified proteins that have been known to be associated with other malignancies, rather than being osteosarcoma specific. In this paper, we focus on the growing list of available state-of-the-art proteomic technologies and their specific application to the discovery of novel osteosarcoma diagnostic and therapeutic targets. The current signaling markers/pathways associated with primary and metastatic osteosarcoma that have been identified by early-stage proteomic technologies thus far are also described.

Proteomic analysis of fractionated Toxoplasma oocysts reveals clues to their environmental resistance.

Project description:Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that is unique in its ability to infect a broad range of birds and mammals, including humans, leading to an extremely high worldwide prevalence and distribution. This work focuses on the environmentally resistant oocyst, which is the product of sexual replication in felids and an important source of human infection. Due to the difficulty in producing and working with oocysts, relatively little is known about how this stage is able to resist extreme environmental stresses and how they initiate a new infection, once ingested. To fill this gap, the proteome of the wall and sporocyst/sporozoite fractions of mature, sporulated oocysts were characterized using one-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by LC-MS/MS on trypsin-digested peptides. A combined total of 1021 non-redundant T. gondii proteins were identified in the sporocyst/sporozoite fraction and 226 were identified in the oocyst wall fraction. Significantly, 172 of the identified proteins have not previously been identified in Toxoplasma proteomic studies. Among these are several of interest for their likely role in conferring environmental resistance including a family of small, tyrosine-rich proteins present in the oocyst wall fractions and late embryogenesis abundant domain-containing (LEA) proteins in the cytosolic fractions. The latter are known from other systems to be key to enabling survival against desiccation.

Proteomic Characterization of Head and Neck Cancer Patient-Derived Xenografts.

Project description:UnlabelledDespite advances in treatment approaches for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), survival rates have remained stagnant due to the paucity of preclinical models that accurately reflect the human tumor. Patient-derived xenografts (PDX) are an emerging model system where patient tumors are implanted directly into mice. Increased understanding of the application and limitations of PDXs will facilitate their rational use. Studies to date have not reported protein profiles of PDXs. Therefore, we developed a large cohort of HNSCC PDXs and found that tumor take rate was not influenced by the clinical, pathologic, or processing features. Protein expression profiles, from a subset of the PDXs, were characterized by reverse-phase protein array and the data was compared with The Cancer Genome Atlas HNSCC data. Cluster analysis revealed that HNSCC PDXs were more similar to primary HNSCC than to any other tumor type. Interestingly, while a significant fraction of proteins were expressed similarly in both primary HNSCC and PDXs, a subset of proteins/phosphoproteins were expressed at higher (or lower) levels in PDXs compared with primary HNSCC. These findings indicate that the proteome is generally conserved in PDXs, but mechanisms for both positive and negative model selection and/or differences in the stromal components exist.ImplicationsProteomic characterization of HNSCC PDXs demonstrates potential drivers for model selection and provides a framework for improved utilization of this expanding model system.

Model-based evaluation of image-guided fractionated whole-brain radiation therapy in pediatric diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma xenografts.

Project description:Radiation therapy (RT) is currently the standard treatment for diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), the most common cause of death in children with brain cancer. A pharmacodynamic model was developed to describe the radiation-induced tumor shrinkage and overall survival in mice bearing DIPG. CD1-nude mice were implanted in the brain cortex with luciferase-labeled patient-derived orthotopic xenografts of DIPG (SJDIPGx7 H3F3AWT / K27 M and SJDIPGx37 H3F3AK27M / K27M ). Mice were treated with image-guided whole-brain RT at 1 or 2 Gy/fraction 5-days-on 2-days-off for a cumulative dose of 20 or 54 Gy. Tumor progression was monitored with bioluminescent imaging (BLI). A mathematical model describing BLI and overall survival was developed with data from mice receiving 2 Gy/fraction and validated using data from mice receiving 1 Gy/fraction. BLI data were adequately fitted with a logistic tumor growth function and a signal distribution model with linear radiation-induced killing effect. A higher tumor growth rate in SJDIPGx37 versus SJDIPGx7 xenografts and a killing effect decreasing with higher tumor baseline (p < 0.0001) were identified. Cumulative radiation dose was suggested to inhibit the tumor growth rate according to a Hill function. Survival distribution was best described with a Weibull hazard function in which the hazard baseline was a continuous function of tumor BLI. Significant differences were further identified between DIPG cell lines and untreated versus treated mice. The model was adequately validated with mice receiving 1 Gy/fraction and will be useful in guiding future preclinical trials incorporating radiation and to support systemic combination therapies with RT.

Proteomic characterization of human plasma high density lipoprotein fractionated by gel filtration chromatography.

Project description:Plasma levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are inversely proportional to the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Recent applications of modern proteomic technologies have identified upward of 50 distinct proteins associated with HDL particles with many of these newly discovered proteins implicating HDL in nonlipid transport processes including complement activation, acute phase response and innate immunity. However, almost all MS-based proteomic studies on HDL to date have utilized density gradient ultracentrifugation techniques for HDL isolation prior to analysis. These involve high shear forces and salt concentrations that can disrupt HDL protein interactions and alter particle function. Here, we used high-resolution size exclusion chromatography to fractionate normal human plasma to 17 phospholipid-containing subfractions. Then, using a phospholipid binding resin, we identified proteins that associate with lipoproteins of various sizes by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. We identified 14 new phospholipid-associated proteins that migrate with traditionally defined HDL, several of which further support roles for HDL in complement regulation and protease inhibition. The increased fractionation inherent to this method allowed us to visualize HDL protein distribution across particle size with unprecedented resolution. The observed heterogeneity across subfractions suggests the presence of HDL particle subpopulations each with distinct protein components that may prove to impart distinct physiological functions.

Evaluation of accuracy and reproducibility of a relocatable maxillary fixation system for fractionated intracranial stereotactic radiation therapy.

Project description:Accurate localisation is an essential component for the delivery of intracranial stereotactic treatment. For fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy, we compared the daily localisation accuracy of a standard thermoplastic mask with a new maxillary fixation device (MFD).Daily pre-treatment kV cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of 23 patients (12 localised in the MFD and 11 in the mask) with benign skull-based lesions were reviewed retrospectively. The set up accuracy was measured in 6° of freedom, to ascertain both individual and population random and systematic errors. The appropriate clinical target volume to planning target volume margin was computed from set up error data.A total of 682 CBCT scans were evaluated. Systematic (Σ) and random (σ) population errors were Σ = 0.8 mm, 0.2 mm and 0.2 mm and σ = 0.3 mm, 0.3 mm and 0.2 mm, respectively, for the standard mask in the left/right (LR), superior/inferior (SI), and anterior/posterior (AP) translational planes, and Σ = 0.2 mm, 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm and σ = 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm and 0.2 mm, respectively, for the MFD. There was a reduction in rotation errors in the MFD compared to the mask. Margin calculations suggested an isotropic margin could be safely reduced to 2 mm for the MFD.The two devices demonstrate similar daily positional accuracy for fractionated stereotactic treatment of intracranial lesions. Combined with daily image guidance and couch correction, either of these devices is a viable frameless option for fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy.

Lab-on-a-chip technologies for proteomic analysis from isolated cells.

Project description:Lab-on-a-chip systems offer a versatile environment in which low numbers of cells and molecules can be manipulated, captured, detected and analysed. We describe here a microfluidic device that allows the isolation, electroporation and lysis of single cells. A431 human epithelial carcinoma cells, expressing a green fluorescent protein-labelled actin, were trapped by dielectrophoresis within an integrated lab-on-a-chip device containing saw-tooth microelectrodes. Using these same trapping electrodes, on-chip electroporation was performed, resulting in cell lysis. Protein release was monitored by confocal fluorescence microscopy.
