SELDI-TOF MS detection of urinary hepcidin

Hepcidin is a 25-residue hepatic peptide that regulates iron absorption from the diet and tissue iron distribution. Inappropriately low Hepcidin expression is implicated in the pathogenesis of hereditary hemochromatosis and iron-loading anemias, like the thalassemias. Increased hepcidin expression mediates iron retention in the anemias of inflammation and plays a pathogenic role in iron-refractory iron-deficiency anemia (IRIDA). Because of its clinical importance, Hepcidin is expected to be a useful biomarker for diagnosis and management of iron-related disorders. So far an ELISA for human hepcidin and SELDI-TOF-MS based approaches have been applied to monitor urinary and/or serum hepcidin levels. Here we report a modified protocol for SELDI-TOF based detection of human, urinary hepcidin. We show that CM10 Proteinchips are superior to NP20 Proteinchips commonly used in previously reported protocols to sensitively and accurately detect urinary hepcidin. Application of this modified hepcidin assay accurately detects increased hepcidin levels in the urine of sepsis patients.

Tracing the transition of methicillin resistance in sub-populations of Staphylococcus aureus, using SELDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry and Artificial Neural Network Analysis

Strains (n = 99) of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from a large number of clinical sources and tested for methicillin sensitivity were analysed by MALDI-TOF-MS using the Weak Cation Exchange (CM10) ProteinChip Array (designated SELDI-TOF-MS). The profile data generated was analysed using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) Analysis modelling techniques. Seven key ions identified by the ANNs that were predictive of MRSA and MSSA were validated by incorporation into a model. This model exhibited an area under the ROC curve value of 0.9147 indicating the potential application of this approach for rapidly characterising MRSA and MSSA isolates. Nearly all strains (n = 97) were correctly assigned to the correct group, with only two aberrant MSSA strains being misclassified. However, approximately 21% of the strains appeared to be in a process of transition as resistance to methicillin was being acquired.

New potential biomarkers in the diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma

Objective: To analyse the alterations of serum proteins in cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in order to screen and validate serum marker patterns for the diagnosis of ESCC in the high-risk populations of Xinjiang, China. Methods: The serum proteomic patterns of 188 cases, including 139 patients with ESCC (54 Uygur, 45 Kazakh and 40 Han subjects) and 49 sex- and age-matched healthy controls, were detected using the SELDI-TOF-MS (surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization–time of flight–mass spectrometry) technology with the CM10 ProteinChip. Differences in protein peaks between patients with ESCC and controls were analysed using the Biomarker Pattern Software, and a primary diagnosis model of ESCC was developed and validated with SVM (support vector machines). This model was further evaluated by a large-scale blind test. Results: Two hundred and eighty-three protein peaks were detected within the molecular range of 0–20?kDa, among which, 140 peaks were significantly different between ESCC cases and controls (p?m/z 5667, 5709, 5876, 5979, 6043 and 6102) was established with a sensitivity of 97.12% and a specificity of 83.87%. The large-scale blind test generated a sensitivity of 91.43% and a specificity of 88.89%. Conclusions: The differential protein peaks analysed by SELDI-TOF-MS may contain promising serum biomarkers for screening ESCC. The diagnostic model which combined only six protein peaks had a satisfactory discriminatory power. The model should be further evaluated in other populations of ESCC patients and tested against controls. The nature and function of the discriminating proteins have yet to be elucidated.
