A Data Set of 255,000 Randomly Selected and Manually Classified Extracted Ion Chromatograms for Evaluation of Peak Detection Methods.

ABSTRACT: Non-targeted mass spectrometry (MS) has become an important method over recent years in the fields of metabolomics and environmental research. While more and more algorithms and workflows become available to process a large number of non-targeted data sets, there still exist few manually evaluated universal test data sets for refining and evaluating these methods. The first step of non-targeted screening, peak detection and refinement of it is arguably the most important step for non-targeted screening. However, the absence of a model data set makes it harder for researchers to evaluate peak detection methods. In this Data Descriptor, we provide a manually checked data set consisting of 255,000 EICs (5000 peaks randomly sampled from across 51 samples) for the evaluation on peak detection and gap-filling algorithms. The data set was created from a previous real-world study, of which a subset was used to extract and manually classify ion chromatograms by three mass spectrometry experts. The data set consists of the converted mass spectrometry files, intermediate processing files and the central file containing a table with all important information for the classified peaks.

Project description:The different clinical behavior of low and high grade gliomas and the chance to develop novel selective agents that specifically target tumor-associated proteins in gliomas stimulate the research of molecules playing a role in glioma progression. Gene expression profiling using microarrays allows the study at the same time of the expression patterns of thousands of genes in tumor cells. In the present study microarrays with about 20,000 genes have been employed to discover the gene expression profile in 39 glial neoplasias (28 glioblastomas (GBM) and 11 low grade gliomas, namely 4 oligodendrogliomas, 5 pilocytic astrocytomas (PA), 2 fibrillary astrocytomas (FA)). Unsupervised classification through hierarchical cluster analysis identified 2 groups of tumours: one group mainly composed of low grade malignant tumours (10 low grade gliomas and 3 GBM), the other one constituted by GBM, with the exception of one low grade case. The nearest shrunken centroid classification method was used to identify genes useful to classify and best characterize high and low grade gliomas. [Tibshirani et al. 2002]; This procedure selected 9 genes as most informative for the classification task: ; Among them 7 genes were overexpressed in low grade gliomas, but underexpressed in GBM; on the contrary 2 genes were overexpressed in GBM, but underexpressed in low grade tumours; Forty five tumors were immunostained for IGFBP-2 . 81,5% GBM resulted immunopositive. On the contrary only one low grade glioma was positive. Gene expression profiling and immunohistochemistry suggest that IGFBP-2 may play a role in glioma progression. IGFBP-2 appears to be a novel immunohistochemical marker of malignancy in glial tumours and probably is the basis for targeted chemotherapy. Experiment Overall Design: We retrieved for this study 185 randomly selected cases of gliomas. All the cases had been received unfixed. A sample of neoplastic tissue had been flash frozen over liquid nitrogen and stored at -80Â°C into the frozen tissue bank of the Section of Pathology of Bellaria Hospital between 1990 and 2002. The remaining (specular) tissues were formalin fixed and paraffin embedded for routine histologic diagnosis. Experiment Overall Design: In the present investigation, only samples with rRNA 28S/18S ratio > 1.0 measured by Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent)and no evidence of ribosomal degradation were included. Some cases were excluded as the tissue samples were composed only by necrosis; other cases did not show neoplastic proliferation. Therefore only 39 glial neoplasias were suitable for the study: i.e. 28 GBMs and 11 low grade CNS tumors, namely 4 oligodendrogliomas (OL), 5 pilocytic astrocytomas (PA), 2 fibrillary astrocytoma (FA) showed a good quality of RNA. Experiment Overall Design: All the tumors were re-staged and graded according to 2000 WHO criteria at time of gene expression analysis by two pathologists (GM and VE). Experiment Overall Design: 39 glial neoplasias were labeled by Cy5. Common reference pool consisted of a mixture of total RNA from the low grade CNS tumor group (4 OL, 5 PA, 2 FA) labeled by Cy3. A series of the most informative genes were confirmed by RT-qPCR. Experiment Overall Design:

Project description:BackgroundThe immense diagnostic potential of human plasma has prompted great interest and effort in cataloging its contents, exemplified by the Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) Plasma Proteome Project (PPP) pilot project. Due to challenges in obtaining a reliable blood plasma protein list, HUPO later re-analysed their own original dataset with a more stringent statistical treatment that resulted in a much reduced list of high confidence (at least 95%) proteins compared with their original findings. In order to facilitate the discovery of novel biomarkers in the future and to realize the full diagnostic potential of blood plasma, we feel that there is still a need for an ultra-high confidence reference list (at least 99% confidence) of blood plasma proteins.MethodsTo address the complexity and dynamic protein concentration range of the plasma proteome, we employed a linear ion-trap-Fourier transform (LTQ-FT) and a linear ion trap-Orbitrap (LTQ-Orbitrap) for mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. Both instruments allow the measurement of peptide masses in the low ppm range. Furthermore, we employed a statistical score that allows database peptide identification searching using the products of two consecutive stages of tandem mass spectrometry (MS3). The combination of MS3 with very high mass accuracy in the parent peptide allows peptide identification with orders of magnitude more confidence than that typically achieved.ResultsHerein we established a high confidence set of 697 blood plasma proteins and achieved a high 'average sequence coverage' of more than 14 peptides per protein and a median of 6 peptides per protein. All proteins annotated as belonging to the immunoglobulin family as well as all hypothetical proteins whose peptides completely matched immunoglobulin sequences were excluded from this protein list. We also compared the results of using two high-end MS instruments as well as the use of various peptide and protein separation approaches. Furthermore, we characterized the plasma proteins using cellular localization information, as well as comparing our list of proteins to data from other sources, including the HUPO PPP dataset.ConclusionSuperior instrumentation combined with rigorous validation criteria gave rise to a set of 697 plasma proteins in which we have very high confidence, demonstrated by an exceptionally low false peptide identification rate of 0.29%.
