RESUMEN
Glutathione S-transferase P1 (GST-P1) is considered as a detoxification enzyme and can be upregulated in several cancers. Therefore, qualification and/or quantification of GST-P1 in biological fluids can be noteworthy in cancer diagnostic and/or prognostic methods. Whereas costly immunoassays methods are routinely used for clinical analysis, long analysis time per sample is still considered as their disadvantages. To create a fast, efficient, and economical GST-P1 qualification and/or quantification technique, we developed an affinity magnetic nanoparticle-MS method. In proposed method there is no need for any pretreatment for reducing the complexity of sample and depletion of high abundant proteins that are used in routinely immunoassays methods. After enrichment of GST-P1 from blood plasma samples by affinity magnetic nanoparticle (without any pretreatment), the final eluent was analyzed using MALDI-TOF, IM-Q-TOF and LC-ESI-Q-TOF MS. For the first time this study demonstrates the suitability of affinity magnetic nanoparticle-MS method for qualification/quantification of GST-P1 from acute lymphoblastic leukemia blood plasma samples with the limit-of-detection 0.0094 ppm in less than 5 h. Our finding showed that in these blood plasma samples the level of GST-P1 can be up to six times more than healthy children.
