This study was conducted to analyze alterations in the human serum proteome as a consequence of infection by malaria parasites Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax to obtain mechanistic insights about disease pathogenesis, host immune response, and identification of potential protein markers. Serum samples from patients diagnosed with falciparum malaria (FM) (n?=?20), vivax malaria (VM) (n?=?17) and healthy controls (HC) (n?=?20) were investigated using multiple proteomic techniques and results were validated by employing immunoassay-based approaches. Specificity of the identified malaria related serum markers was evaluated by means of analysis of leptospirosis as a febrile control (FC). Compared to HC, 30 and 31 differentially expressed and statistically significant (p<0.05) serum proteins were identified in FM and VM respectively, and almost half (46.2%) of these proteins were commonly modulated due to both of the plasmodial infections. 13 proteins were found to be differentially expressed in FM compared to VM. Functional pathway analysis involving the identified proteins revealed the modulation of different vital physiological pathways, including acute phase response signaling, chemokine and cytokine signaling, complement cascades and blood coagulation in malaria. A panel of identified proteins consists of six candidates; serum amyloid A, hemopexin, apolipoprotein E, haptoglobin, retinol-binding protein and apolipoprotein A-I was used to build statistical sample class prediction models. By employing PLS-DA and other classification methods the clinical phenotypic classes (FM, VM, FC and HC) were predicted with over 95% prediction accuracy. Individual performance of three classifier proteins; haptoglobin, apolipoprotein A-I and retinol-binding protein in diagnosis of malaria was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The discrimination of FM, VM, FC and HC groups on the basis of differentially expressed serum proteins demonstrates the potential of this analytical approach for the detection of malaria as well as other human diseases. 相似文献

Vivax malaria is the most widely distributed human malaria resulting in 80-300 million clinical cases every year. It causes severe infection and mortality but is generally regarded as a benign disease and has not been investigated in detail. The present study aimed to perform human serum proteome analysis in a malaria endemic area in India to identify potential serum biomarkers for vivax malaria and understand host response. The proteomic analysis was performed on 16 age and gender matched subjects (vivax patients and control) in duplicate. Protein extraction protocols were optimized for large coverage of the serum proteome and to obtain high-resolution data. Identification of 67 differentially expressed and statistically significant (Student's t-test; p<0.05) protein spots was established by MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry. Many of the identified proteins such as apolipoprotein A and E, serum amyloid A and P, haptoglobin, ceruloplasmin, and hemopexin are interesting from a diagnostic point of view and could further be studied as potential serum biomarkers. The differentially expressed serum proteins in vivax malaria identified in this study were subjected to functional pathway analysis using multiple software, including Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA), Protein ANalysis THrough Evolutionary Relationships (PANTHER) and Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) functional annotation tool for better understanding of the biological context of the identified proteins, their involvement in various physiological pathways and association with disease pathogenesis. Functional pathway analysis of the differentially expressed proteins suggested the modulation of multiple vital physiological pathways, including acute phase response signaling, complement and coagulation cascades, hemostasis and vitamin D metabolism pathway due to this parasitic infection.

Recently developed proteomic technologies allow to profile thousands of proteins within a high-throughput approach towards biomarker discovery, although results are not as satisfactory as expected. In the present study we demonstrate that serum proteome denaturation is a key underestimated feature; in fact, a new differential denaturation protocol better discriminates serum proteins according to their electrophoretic mobility as compared to single-denaturation protocols. Sixty nine different denaturation treatments were tested and the 3 most discriminating ones were selected (TRIDENT analysis) and applied to human sera, showing a significant improvement of serum protein discrimination as confirmed by MALDI-TOF/MS and LC-MS/MS identification, depending on the type of denaturation applied. Thereafter sera from mice and patients carrying cutaneous melanoma were analyzed through TRIDENT. Nine and 8 protein bands were found differentially expressed in mice and human melanoma sera, compared to healthy controls (p<0.05); three of them were found, for the first time, significantly modulated: α2macroglobulin (down-regulated in melanoma, p<0.001), Apolipoprotein-E and Apolipoprotein-A1 (both up-regulated in melanoma, p<0.04), both in mice and humans. The modulation was confirmed by immunological methods. Other less abundant proteins (e.g. gelsolin) were found significantly modulated (p<0.05).Conclusions: i) serum proteome contains a large amount of information, still neglected, related to proteins folding; ii) a careful serum denaturation may significantly improve analytical procedures involving complex protein mixtures; iii) serum differential denaturation protocol highlights interesting proteomic differences between cancer and healthy sera. 相似文献

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease. To identify endogenous peptides possibly involved in the progression of TOF, we performed comparative peptidomic profiling of maternal serum between normal fetuses and fetuses suffering from TOF. A total of 278 differentially expressed peptides, including 94 over‐expressed peptides and 184 under‐expressed peptides, originating from 227 protein precursors were identified by liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) in maternal serum of fetuses with TOF compared to normal controls. Further, ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) was used to identify putative roles for these peptides in cardiovascular development. Two peptides were derived from functional domains of proteins involved in heart development and associated with TOF; these may represent candidate bioactive peptides involved in TOF. These peptides may be related to the pathologic changes in the heart associated with TOF, and may be useful as novel biomarkers for prenatal diagnosis of TOF. J. Cell.

A nuclear phosphoprotein, DEK, is implicated in certain human diseases, such as leukemia and antoimmune disorders, and a major component of metazoan chromatin. Basically as a modulator of chromatin structure, it can involve in various DNA and RNA‐dependent processes and function as either an activator or repressor. Despite of numerous efforts to suggest the biological role of DEK, direct target proteins of DEK in different physiological status remains elusive. To investigate if DEK protein triggers the changes in certain protein networks, DEK was knocked down at both types of cell clones using siRNA expression. Here we provide a catalogue of proteome profiles in total cell lysates derived from normal HeLa and DEK knock‐down HeLa cells and a good in vitro model system for dissecting the protein networks due to this proto‐oncogenic DEK protein. In this biological context, we compared total proteome changes by the combined methods of two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis, quantitative image analysis and MALDI‐TOF MS analysis. There were a large number of targets for DEK, which were differentially expressed in DEK knock‐down cells and consisted of 58 proteins (41 up‐regulated and 17 down‐regulated) differentially regulated expression was further confirmed for some subsets of candidates by Western blot analysis using specific antibodies. In the identified 58 spots, 16% of proteins are known to be associated with apoptosis. Among others, we identified apoptosis related proteins such as Annexins, Enolase1, Lamin A, and Glutathione‐S‐transferase omega 1. These results are consistent with recent studies indicating the crucial role of DEK in apoptosis pathway. We further demonstrated by ChIP analysis that knock‐down of DEK caused hyperacetylation of histones around Prx VI promoter which is upregulated in our profile. Using immunoblotting analysis, we have demonstrated the modulation of other caspase‐dependent apoptosis related proteins by DEK knock‐down and further implicate its role in apoptosis pathway. J.

In‐depth studies on the proteome of reflex tears are still inadequate. Hence, further studies on this subject will unravel the key proteins which are conjectured to possess vital functions in the protection of the ocular surface. Therefore, this study investigated the differences in the expression levels in proteome of reflex compared to basal tears. Basal (n = 10) and reflex (n = 10) tear samples from healthy subjects were collected employing the capillary method, subsequently pooled and the proteomes were characterized employing 1DE combined with LC‐ESI‐MS/MS strategy for label‐free quantitative (LFQ) analysis. The differentially expressed proteins were validated by 2DE combined with LC‐ESI‐MS/MS and targeted‐MS approach called accurate inclusion mass screening (AIMS) strategies. The analysis of the reflex tear proteome demonstrated increased abundance in proline‐rich protein 4 (PRR4) and zymogen granule protein 16 homolog B (ZG16B) for the first time. Other abundant lacrimal proteins, e.g. lactotransferrin and lysozyme remained constant. Predominantly, the lacrimal gland‐specific PRR4 represents the major increased protein in reflex tears in an attempt to wash out irritants that come into contact with the eye. Conversely, decreased abundance in Ig alpha‐1 chain C, polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, cystatin S/SN, clusterin and mammaglobin were observed. This study had further unraveled the intricate proteome regulation during reflex tearing, especially the potential role of PRR4, which may be the key player in the protection and maintenance of dynamic balance of the ocular surface. 相似文献

Psoriasis is a common chronic autoimmune skin disease involving the activation of T cells. To explore the proteomic signature of peripheral blood mononuclear cells, a quantitative analysis of their global proteome was conducted in samples from Chinese patients with new‐onset psoriasis (n = 31) and healthy controls (n = 32) using an integrated quantitative approach with tandem mass tag labeling and LC–MS/MS. Protein annotation, unsupervised hierarchical clustering, functional classification, functional enrichment and cluster, and protein–protein interaction analyses were performed. A total of 5178 proteins were identified, of which 4404 proteins were quantified. The fold‐change cutoff was set at 1.2 (patients vs controls); 335 proteins were upregulated, and 107 proteins were downregulated. The bioinformatics analysis indicated that the differentially expressed proteins were involved in processes related to the activation of immune cells including the nuclear factor kappa‐light‐chain‐enhancer of activated B cells (NF‐κB) pathway, cellular energy metabolism, and proliferation. Three upregulated proteins and two phosphorylated proteins in the NF‐κB pathway were verified or identified by Western blotting. These results confirm that the NF‐κB pathway is critical to psoriasis. In addition, many differentially expressed proteins identified in this study have never before been associated with psoriasis, and further studies on these proteins are necessary. 相似文献

Tyrosol (TYR, 2‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)ethanol), one of the main phenols in olive oil and olive fruit, significantly strengthens resistance to thermal and oxidative stress in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and extends its lifespan. To elucidate the cellular functions regulated by TYR, we have used a proteomic procedure based on 2DE coupled with MS with the aim to identify the proteins differentially expressed in nematodes grown in a medium containing 250 μM TYR. After the comparison of the protein profiles from 250 μM TYR and from control, 28 protein spots were found to be altered in abundance (≥twofold). Analysis by MALDI‐TOF/TOF and PMF allowed the unambiguous identification of 17 spots, corresponding to 13 different proteins. These proteins were as follows: vitellogenin‐5, vitellogenin‐2, bifunctional glyoxylate cycle protein, acyl CoA dehydrogenase‐3, alcohol dehydrogenase 1, adenosylhomocysteinase, elongation factor 2, GTP‐binding nuclear protein ran‐1, HSP‐4, protein ENPL‐1 isoform b, vacuolar H ATPase 12, vacuolar H ATPase 13, GST 4. Western‐blot analysis of yolk protein 170, ras‐related nuclear protein, elongation factor 2, and vacuolar H ATPase H subunit supported the proteome evidence. 相似文献

We have explored proteins related to mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The serum proteome of 35 amnestic MCI patients and 35 cognitively healthy persons was investigated by LC MS. We identified 108 differentially expressed peptides between MCI patients and controls, belonging to 39 proteins. Eight proteins were selected for further investigation by quantitative protein measurements using a MRM assay; apolipoprotein E, carboxypeptidase N subunit 2, complement factor B (CFAB), galectin‐3 binding protein (LG3BP), lumican, serum amyloid A‐4 protein (SAA4), serum amyloid P‐component, and sex hormone binding globulin. Results of the quantitative protein measurements showed significantly decreased levels of carboxypeptidase N subunit 2, CFAB, LG3BP, SAA4, and serum amyloid P‐component in serum from amnestic MCI patients compared with cognitive healthy controls (two‐sided t‐test; p < 0.05). Apolipoprotein E and lumican showed no significant difference in protein levels, sex hormone binding globulin could not be quantified since the MRM assay did not reach the required sensitivity. A model based on the three most significantly decreased proteins (CFAB, LG3BP, and SAA4) showed a sensitivity and specificity of 73 and 66%, respectively, for the initial sample set. A small external validation set yielded 77% sensitivity and 75% specificity. 相似文献

To understand the intracellular responses in recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells adapted to grow in serum‐free suspension culture, a proteomic approach was employed. After rCHO cells producing erythropoietin were adapted to grow in suspension culture with the two different serum‐free media (SFM4CHO? and SF‐L1), proteome analyses were carried out using 2‐D PAGE and based on spot intensities, 58 high‐intensity protein spots were selected. Of the 58 protein spots, which represented 34 different kinds of proteins, 55 were identified by MALDI‐TOF‐MS, and MS/MS. Compared with the results in serum‐containing medium, six proteins, four de novo synthesis of nucleotides‐related proteins (dihydrolipoamide S‐acetyltransferase, transaldolase, inosine‐5′‐monophosphate dehydrogenase 2, and lymphoid‐restricted membrane protein) and two molecular chaperones (heat shock protein 70 kDa and 60 kDa [HSC70, HSP60]) were significantly increased in SFM4CHO?. From the results of proteomic analysis, HSP60 and HSC70, which were increased in both SFM, were selected as candidate proteins for engineering and rCHO cell lines overexpressing these genes were constructed. Cells overexpressing HSP60 and/or HSC70 showed 10–15% enhanced cell concentration during serum‐free adaptation and 15–33% reduction in adaptation time. Taken together, identification of differentially expressed proteins in rCHO cells by a proteomic study can provide insights into understanding the intracellular events and clues to find candidate genes for cell engineering for improved performance of rCHO cells during adaptation to serum‐free suspension culture. © 2011 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Congenital scoliosis (CS) is a three‐dimensional deformity of the spine affecting quality of life. We have demonstrated TBX6 haploinsufficiency is the most important contributor to CS. However, the pathophysiology at the protein level remains unclear. Therefore, this study was to explore the differential proteome in serum of CS patients with TBX6 haploinsufficiency. Sera from nine CS patients with TBX6 haploinsufficiency and nine age‐ and gender‐matched healthy controls were collected and analysed by isobaric tagged relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) labelling coupled with mass spectrometry (MS). In total, 277 proteins were detected and 20 proteins were designated as differentially expressed proteins, which were submitted to subsequent bioinformatics analysis. Gene Ontology classification analysis showed the biological process was primarily related to ‘cellular process’, molecular function ‘structural molecule activity’ and cellular component ‘extracellular region’. IPA analysis revealed ‘LXR/RXR activation’ was the top pathway, which is a crucial pathway in lipid metabolism. Hierarchical clustering analysis generated two clusters. In summary, this study is the first proteomic research to delineate the total and differential serum proteins in TBX6 haploinsufficiency‐caused CS. The proteins discovered in this experiment may serve as potential biomarkers for CS, and lipid metabolism might play important roles in the pathogenesis of CS. 相似文献

Maslinic acid (MA) is a pentacyclic triterpene used as a feed additive to stimulate growth, protein‐turnover rates, and hyperplasia in fish. To further our understanding of cellular mechanisms underlying the action of MA, we have used 2‐DE coupled with MS to identify proteins differentially expressed in the livers of juvenile gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) grown under fish‐farm conditions and fed with a 100 mg/kg MA‐enriched diet (MA100). After the comparison of the protein profiles from MA100 fed fish and from control, 49 protein spots were found to be altered in abundance (≥2‐fold). Analysis by MALDI‐TOF/TOF allowed the unambiguous identification of 29 spots, corresponding to 19 different proteins. These proteins were: phosphoglucomutase, phosphoglucose isomerase, S‐adenosyl methionine‐dependent methyltransferase class I, aldehyde dehydrogenase, catalase, 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase, 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvic dioxygenase, methylmalonate‐semialdehyde dehydrogenase, lysozyme, urate oxidase, elongation factor 2, 60 kDa heat‐shock protein, 58 kDa glucose‐regulated protein, cytokeratin E7, type‐II keratin, intermediate filament proteins, 17‐β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 4, and kinase suppressor of Ras1. Western blot analysis of kinase suppressor of Ras1, glucose 6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, elongation factor 2, 60 kDa heat‐shock protein, and catalase supported the proteome evidence. Based on the changes found in the protein‐expression levels of these proteins, we proposed a cellular‐signalling pathway to explain the hepatic‐cell response to the intake of a diet containing MA. 相似文献

Chagas disease is initiated upon infection by Trypanosoma cruzi. Among the health consequences is a decline in heart function, and the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying this manifestation are not well understood. To explore the possible mechanisms, we employed IgY LC10 affinity chromatography in conjunction with ProteomeLab PF2D and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis to resolve the proteome signature of high and low abundance serum proteins in chagasic patients. MALDI-TOF MS/MS analysis yielded 80 and 14 differentially expressed proteins associated with cardiomyopathy of chagasic and other etiologies, respectively. The extent of oxidative stress-induced carbonyl modifications of the differentially expressed proteins (n = 26) was increased and coupled with a depression of antioxidant proteins. Functional annotation of the top networks developed by ingenuity pathway analysis of proteome database identified dysregulation of inflammation/acute phase response signaling and lipid metabolism relevant to production of prostaglandins and arachidonic acid in chagasic patients. Overlay of the major networks identified prothrombin and plasminogen at a nodal position with connectivity to proteome signature indicative of heart disease (i.e., thrombosis, angiogenesis, vasodilatation of blood vessels or the aorta, and increased permeability of blood vessel and endothelial tubes), and inflammatory responses (e.g., platelet aggregation, complement activation, and phagocyte activation and migration). The detection of cardiac proteins (myosin light chain 2 and myosin heavy chain 11) and increased levels of vinculin and plasminogen provided a comprehensive set of biomarkers of cardiac muscle injury and development of clinical Chagas disease in human patients. These results provide an impetus for biomarker validation in large cohorts of clinically characterized chagasic patients. 相似文献

To better understand the underlying molecular basis of leaf development in maize, a reference map of nuclear proteins in basal region of seedling leaf was established using a combination of 2DE and MALDI‐TOF‐MS. In total, 441 reproducible protein spots in nuclear proteome of maize leaf basal region were detected with silver staining in a pH range of 3–10, among which 203 spots corresponding to 163 different proteins were identified. As expected, proteins implicated in RNA and protein‐associated functions were overrepresented in nuclear proteome. Remarkably, a high percentage (10%) of proteins was identified to be involved in cell division and growth. In addition, comparative nuclear proteomic analysis in leaf basal region of highly heterotic hybrid Mo17/B73 and its parental lines was also performed and 52 of 445 (11.69%) detected protein spots were differentially expressed between the hybrid and its parental lines, among which 16 protein spots displayed nonadditively expressed pattern. These results indicated that hybridization between two parental lines can cause changes in the expression of a variety of nuclear proteins, which may be responsible for the observed leaf size heterosis. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to investigate the early response to mechanical stress in neonatal rat mandibular chondrocytes by proteomic analysis. To evaluate its molecular mechanism, chondrocytes were isolated and cultured in vitro, then loaded mechanical stress by four‐point bending system on different patterns. Morphological observation, flow cytometric analysis, and MTT assays indicated that 4,000 µstrain loading for 60 min was an appropriate mechanical stimulus for the following proteome analysis, which produced a transient but obvious inhibitory effect on the cell cycle. Therefore, we took a proteomic approach to identify significantly differential expression proteins in chondrocytes under this mechanical stress. Using 2‐DE and MALDI‐TOF, we identified seven differentially expressed proteins including the MAPK pathway inhibitor RKIP, cytoskeleton proteins, actin and vimentin, and other selected proteins. Some differentially expressed proteins were validated by both Western blot analysis and fluorescent staining of cytoskeleton at different loading times. The vimentin and RKIP responsive expression were also proven in vivo in oral orthopedic treatment rats, which was in line with the result in vitro. The histological changes in cartilage also showed the inhibition effect. Furthermore, the expressional level of phosphorylated ERK was increased, which demonstrates the changes in MAPK activity. Taken together, these data indicate that mechanical stress resulted in vimentin expression changes first and then led to the subsequent changes in actin expression, MAPK pathway regulated by RKIP and heat shock protein GRP75. All those changes contributed to the cytoskeleton remolding and cell cycle inhibition, finally led to condylar remodeling. J. Cell. Physiol. 223:610–622, 2010. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to identify growth hormone (GH) responsive proteins and protein expression patterns by short‐term recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) therapy in patients with idiopathic short stature (ISS) using proteomic analysis. Seventeen children (14 males and three females) with ISS were included. They were treated with rhGH at a dose of 0.31 ± 0.078 mg/kg/week for 3 months. Immunodepletion of six highly‐abundant serum proteins followed by 2D DIGE analysis, and subsequent MALDI TOF MS, were employed to generate a panel of proteins differentially expressed after short‐term rhGH therapy and verify the differences in serum levels of specific proteins by rhGH therapy. Fourteen spots were differentially expressed after rhGH treatment. Among them, apo E and apo L‐1 expression were consistently enhanced, whereas serum amyloid A was reduced after rhGH therapy. The differential expressions of these proteins were subsequently verified by Western blot analysis using sera of the before and after rhGH treatment. This study suggests that rhGH therapy influences lipoprotein metabolism and enhances apo L‐1 protein expression in ISS patients. 相似文献

Grapes are commercially grown worldwide for fresh fruit and wine. They are mainly classified into bunch and muscadine grapes. These species differ in their sugar content and composition, photosynthetic efficiency and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses. Grape berry relies on carbohydrates produced during photosynthesis to support its development and composition. In view of the unique physiology and genetic make‐up of muscadine grape, a proteomics study was performed to increase our knowledge of Vitis leaf proteome in order to improve enological and disease tolerance characteristics of grape species. A high throughput two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis (2‐DE) was conducted on muscadine, bunch and hybrid bunch leaf proteins. The differentially expressed proteins were excised from 2‐DE gels, subjected to in‐gel trypsin digestion, and analysed in MALDI/TOF mass spectrometer. The mass spectra were collected and protein identification was performed by searching against Viridiplantae database using Matrix Science algorithm. Proteins were mapped to universal protein resource to study gene ontology. We have discovered >255 proteins with pIs between 3.5 and 8.0 and molecular weight between 12 and 100 kDa among the Vitis species. Comparative analysis of leaf proteome showed that 54 polypeptides varied qualitatively and quantitatively among the three Vitis species studied. Of these, seven proteins were unique to muscadine, two proteins were present in both muscadine and bunch, while 28 proteins were common to all the three species. Bioinformatic analysis of these proteins showed that they are involved in signal transduction pathway, transport of metabolites, energy metabolism, protein trafficking, photosynthesis and defence. We have also identified proteins unique to muscadine grape that are involved in defence and stress tolerance. In addition, photosynthesis‐related proteins were found to be more abundant in Vitis vinifera grape compared to other Vitis species. 相似文献
