Multiplex selected reaction monitoring assay for quantification of 15 human tissue kallikreins in biological samples

ABSTRACT: Human tissue kallikreins (KLKs) are a group of 15 secreted serine proteases encoded by the largest contiguous cluster of protease genes in the human genome. KLKs are involved in coordination of numerous physiological functions including regulation of blood pressure, neuronal plasticity, skin desquamation and semen liquefaction, and thus represent promising diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Until now, quantification of KLKs in biological and clinical samples was accomplished only by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). In this work, we developed a multiplex selected reaction monitoring (SRM) assay for the simultaneous quantification of all 15 KLKs. Proteotypic peptides for each KLK were carefully selected based on experimental data and then multiplex in a single assay. Assay performance was evaluated using three different mass spectrometry platforms including triple quadrupole, quadrupole-ion trap and quadrupole-orbitrap instruments. Heavy isotope-labeled synthetic peptides with a quantifying tag were used for absolute quantification of KLKs in seminal plasma, sweat and cervico-vaginal fluid, with limits of detection ranging from 5 to 500 ng/mL. Analytical performance of the SRM assay was evaluated by measuring endogenous KLKs in relevant clinical samples and results were compared to selected ELISAs. The multiplex SRM assay was proven to be an accurate, reproducible, sensitive and highly specific alternative to the existing antibody-based assays. Finally, we used immunoenrichment-SRM and ELISA to unambiguously detect and quantify seminal plasma levels of kallikrein-4, a highly prostate-specific protein and a potential biomarker of prostate-related diseases. The presented multiplex SRM assay is an alternative analytical tool to study the biological and pathological roles of human KLKs.

Project description:Advancements in animal models and cell culture techniques have been invaluable in the elucidation of molecular events and mechanisms regulating muscle atrophy. However, few studies have examined muscle atrophy in humans using modern experimental techniques. The purpose of this study was to examine and validate changes in global gene transcription during immobilization-induced muscle atrophy in humans. Healthy men and women (N=24) were subjected to two weeks of unilateral limb immobilization, with muscle biopsies obtained before, and after 48 hours (48H) and 14 days (14D) of immobilization. Both muscle cross sectional area (~ 5 %) and strength (10-20 %) were significantly reduced in men and women after 14D of immobilization. Micro-array analysis of total RNA extracted from biopsy samples uncovered 575 and 3,128 probes representing multiple genes, which were significantly altered at 48H and 14D, respectively. As a group, genes involved in mitochondrial bioenergetics and carbohydrate metabolism were predominant features at both 48H and 14D, with genes involved in protein synthesis and degradation significantly down-regulated and up-regulated, respectively, at 14D of muscle atrophy. There was also a significant decrease in the protein content of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, and the enzyme activity of cytochrome c oxidase and citrate synthase after 14D of immobilization. Furthermore, protein ubiquitination and oxidative damage were significantly increased by 48H and 14D of immobilization, respectively. These results suggest that transcriptional and post-transcriptional suppression of mitochondrial processes is sustained throughout 14D of immobilization, while protein ubiquitination plays an early but transient role in the progression of immobilization-induced muscle atrophy in humans. 72 samples taken from quadriceps of healthy ambulatory young men and women. Samples were taken at 3 timepoints throughout a 14 day period, the initial sample was taken at time 0 (PRECAST), then the limb was immobilized via a brace, and the 2nd sample was taken at 48 hours (CAST02D). The third sample was taken following 14 days of immobilization (CAST14D).
