RESUMO
For the first time proteins are described, reliably increasing and decreasing in urine with age in the range of 20 to 60 years. The combinations of proteins associated with changes in immune processes, violation of blood reology, including the risk of coagulopathy, anticancer defense mechanisms, insulin signaling pathway, changes in cell characteristics are characterized division and quality of the newly formed fabric. Thus, the age dynamics of the main processes triggers a cascade of reactions manifested in the closure of «pathological biochemical circles¼ that form the prerequisites for the development of diseases and, over time, clinical manifestations.

In our study urine protein composition of 18 healthy volunteers was compared with that of 18 patients with ischemic heart disease and concomitant hypertension. Liquid chromatography-mass-spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis of the second fraction of morning urine was carried out using nano-line high performance liquid chromatograph and hybrid mass spectrometer. The analysis revealed 23 proteins expressed in the endothelium, according to the information contained in the database Bgee, and 49 proteins, with direct functional link with the processes in the endothelium in the reconstruction of associative networks using ANDSystem program. Comparison of urine proteome of healthy people and patients with postinfarction cardiosclerosis revealed proteins specific for patients with cardiovascular disease. Thus, proteins vitronectin, syndecan-4, a histidine rich glycoprotein, endothelial protein C receptor, colony stimulating factor, cathepsin D and sekretogranin-1 may be considered as potential markers for cardiovascular diseases. Further research in this area should be conducted for clinical and experimental verification of these hypotheses.

We investigated changes in the urine protein composition of healthy volunteers in controlled conditions during 105-day isolation (Mars-500 program) at different levels of salt consumption. We used newest proteomic techniques based on chromatography-mass spectrometry and various methods of bioinformatics including opoSOM. The period of observation can be divided into three intervals with different dynamics of protein excretion: early (week 1-6), intermediate (week 7-11) and late interval (week 12-15). We identified about 10 different groups of co-detected proteins, which are directly affected by periods with different-levels of salt consumption. We also determined the biological functions of these proteins, tissue specificity and signaling pathways that involve them.

Specifics of urine proteome is sensitive to a multitude of factors. One is nutrition or entrance in organism of main nutrients including salt (NaCI). Purpose of the investigation was to study the proteomic composition of healthy human urine in the controlled environment of a 105-day isolation experiment (project <

The study was aimed at tracking the proteomic profile of urine in 8 normal volunteers to 5-day dry immersion (DI). The proteome composition was determined by chromatography-mass spectrometry on high-efficient on-line liquid nano chromatograph Agilent 1100; complementary information about the protein spectra was obtained by dint of mass-spectrometer MaXis Impact 4G and hybrid mass-spectrometer LTQ-FT. Functional associations between proteins and biological functions were analyzed using computer system ANDCell (Associative Networks Discovery in Cells). A total of 256 proteins were identified; for 43 proteins difference in the detection rate during the baseline data collection and on DI day 4 exceeded 20%.

The paper analyzes data on how physical exercise as a standard test of cosmonaut's performance, affects the renal function and urine protein profile. The investication involved 10 normal human subjects. Following exercise, rate of renal excretion of proteins increased. The occurrence of 4 proteins out of 9 in urine did not alter and of 2 (alpha-methylacyl coenzyme A racemase and cubilin) increased; occurrence of 3 proteins (kallikrein-1, osteopontin and vitamin K-dependent protein Z) decreased. Out of 24 proteins with molecular weights higher than albumin, 7 were detected in urine after exercise more frequently, 6 with same frequency as before the test and none less frequently which demonstrates lowered selectivity of the glomerular barrier during exercise.

We investigated the age dynamics of proteomic profile of urine in 52 healthy men aged 18 to 51 years. A special sample preparation was performed, followed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry of the minor proteins was performed on a nano-HPLC Agilent 1100 system («Agilent Technologies Inc.¼, USA) in combination with a LTQ-FT Ultra mass spectrometer («Thermo Electron¼, Germany). A total of 259 proteins were identified. According to the TiGER database, a tissue origin was established for 141 proteins and identified 715 processes in which they participate. We found a significant positive correlation with age, the number of proteins (R=0,566; p-value=1,24E-05) and the weight of proteins (R=0,45; p value=8,17E-04). Identified 23 proteins were significantly more frequent in the urine of subjects with increasing age (p<0,05), and only one protein - RGSL, Regulator of G protein signaling protein-like (MW 125.69) - less frequently.

Purpose of the study was to track permanent proteins of urine proteome in the 520-day isolation experiment at the IBMP Ground-Based Test Facility with controlled environmental parameters. Object of the investigation was urine sampled from 6 normal male subjects at the age of 25 to 37 years. Second morning aliquots were gathered during baseline data collection, on days 50, 93, 124, 153, 180, 251, 274, 303, 330, 371, 400 and 427 of isolation, and in 7 days after its completion. Samples were subject to chromatography-mass spectrometry; results were analyzed with the help of bioinformatics resources. The following 7 permanent proteins were observed in urine over the entire length of the investigation: epidermal growth factor, polymer immunoglobulin receptor, plasma serine protease inhibitor, protein AMBP, keratin, type II cytoskeletal 1, collagen alpha-1 (vi) chain, serum albumin.
