RESUMO
Despite the advantages of fewer missing values by collecting fragment ion data on all analytes in the sample as well as the potential for deeper coverage, the adoption of data-independent acquisition (DIA) in proteomics core facility settings has been slow. The Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities conducted a large interlaboratory study to evaluate DIA performance in proteomics laboratories with various instrumentation. Participants were supplied with generic methods and a uniform set of test samples. The resulting 49 DIA datasets act as benchmarks and have utility in education and tool development. The sample set consisted of a tryptic HeLa digest spiked with high or low levels of 4 exogenous proteins. Data are available in MassIVE MSV000086479. Additionally, we demonstrate how the data can be analyzed by focusing on 2 datasets using different library approaches and show the utility of select summary statistics. These data can be used by DIA newcomers, software developers, or DIA experts evaluating performance with different platforms, acquisition settings, and skill levels.

Sportomics is a subject-centered holistic method similar to metabolomics focusing on sports as the metabolic challenge. Dried blood spot is emerging as a technique due to its simplicity and reproducibility. In addition, mass spectrometry and integrative computational biology enhance our ability to understand exercise-induced modifications. We studied inflammatory blood proteins (Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein-A1AG1; Albumin; Cystatin C; C-reactive protein-CRP; Hemoglobin-HBA; Haptoglobin-HPT; Insulin-like growth factor 1; Lipopolysaccharide binding protein-LBP; Mannose-binding lectin-MBL2; Myeloperoxidase-PERM and Serum amyloid A1-SAA1), in 687 samples from 97 World-class and Olympic athletes across 16 sports in nine states. Data were analyzed with Spearman's rank-order correlation. Major correlations with CRP, LBP; MBL2; A1AG1, and SAA1 were found. The pairs CRP-SAA1 and CRP-LBP appeared with a robust positive correlation. Other pairs, LBP-SAA1; A1AG1-CRP; A1AG1-SAA1; A1AG1-MBL, and A1AG1-LBP, showed a broader correlation across the sports. The protein-protein interaction map revealed 1500 interactions with 44 core proteins, 30 of them linked to immune system processing. We propose that the inflammation follow-up in exercise can provide knowledge for internal cargo management in training, competition, recovery, doping control, and a deeper understanding of health and disease.

Imaging the inventory of microbial small molecule interactions provides important insights into microbial chemical ecology and human medicine. Herein we demonstrate a new method for enhanced detection and analysis of metabolites present in interspecies interactions of microorganisms on surfaces. We demonstrate that desorption electrospray ionization-imaging mass spectrometry (DESI-IMS) using microporous membrane scaffolds (MMS) enables enhanced spatiochemical analyses of interacting microbes among tested sample preparation techniques. Membrane scaffolded DESI-IMS has inherent advantages compared to matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) and other IMS methods through direct IMS analyses of microbial chemistry in situ. This rapid imaging method yields sensitive MS analyses with unique m/z measurements when compared to liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) via unmediated sampling by MMS DESI-IMS. Unsupervised segmentation imaging analysis of acquired DESI-IMS data reveals distinct chemical regions corresponding to intermicrobial phenomenon such as predation and communication. We validate the method by linking Myxovirescin A and DKxanthene-560 to their known biological roles of predation and phase variation, respectively. In addition to providing the first topographic locations of known natural products, we prioritize 54 unknown features using segmentation within the region of predation. Thus, DESI-IMS and unsupervised segmentation spatially annotates the known biology of myxobacteria and provides functional exploration of newly uncharacterized small molecules.

In proteomics studies, it is generally accepted that depth of coverage and dynamic range is limited in data-directed acquisitions. The serial nature of the method limits both sensitivity and the number of precursor ions that can be sampled. To that end, a number of data-independent acquisition (DIA) strategies have been introduced with these methods, for the most part, immune to the sampling issue; nevertheless, some do have other limitations with respect to sensitivity. The major limitation with DIA approaches is interference, i.e., MS/MS spectra are highly chimeric and often incapable of being identified using conventional database search engines. Utilizing each available dimension of separation prior to ion detection, we present a new multi-mode acquisition (MMA) strategy multiplexing both narrowband and wideband DIA acquisitions in a single analytical workflow. The iterative nature of the MMA workflow limits the adverse effects of interference with minimal loss in sensitivity. Qualitative identification can be performed by selected ion chromatograms or conventional database search strategies.

The grand vision of the human proteome project (HPP) is moving closer to reality with the recent announcement by HUPO of the creation of the HPP consortium in charge of the development of a two-part HPP, one focused on the description of proteomes of biological samples or related to diseases (B/D-HPP) and the other dedicated to a systematic description of proteins as gene products encoded in the human genome (the C-HPP). This new initiative of HUPO seeks to identify and characterize at least one representative protein from every gene, create a protein distribution atlas and a protein pathway or network map. This vision for proteomics can be the roadmap of biological and clinical research for years to come if it delivers on its promises. The Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) to HUPO shares the visions of C-HPP. The IAB will support and critically accompany the overall project goals and the definitions of the critical milestones. The member companies are in a unique position to develop hardware and software, reagents and standards, procedures, and workflows to ensure a reliable source of tools available to the proteomics community worldwide. In collaboration with academia, the IAB member companies can and must develop the tools to reach the ambitious project goals. We offer to partner with and challenge the academic groups leading the C-HPP to define both ambitious and obtainable goals and milestones to make the C-HPP a real and trusted resource for future biology.

A randomized, controlled, open-label, parallel-group, single-center study to determine biomarkers of exposure to 12 selected harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHC) in cigarette smoke, excretion of mutagenic material in urine, and serum Clara cell 16-kDa protein (CC16) in 102 male and female Japanese subjects who smoked Marlboro Ultra Lights Menthol cigarettes (M4J(M); 4 mg tar and 0.3mg nicotine) at baseline. Subjects were randomized to continue smoking M4J(M), or switch to smoking either the Electrically Heated Cigarette Smoking System menthol cigarette (EHCSS-K6(M); 5mg tar and 0.3mg nicotine) or the Lark One menthol cigarette (Lark1(M); 1mg tar and 0.1mg nicotine), or to no-smoking. The mean decreases from baseline to Day 5/6 were statistically significant (p ≤ 0.05) for exposure to 10 of 12 cigarette smoke HPHC including the primary endpoint (carbon monoxide) and urinary excretion of mutagenic material in the EHCSS-K6(M) group (-12.3% to -83.4%). Smaller, but statistically significant reductions (p ≤ 0.05) occurred in the Lark1(M) group (-3.3% to -35.2%), with the exception of urinary mutagens. The largest mean reductions (all p ≤ 0.05) in exposure to cigarette smoke HPHC and excretion of mutagenic material occurred in the no-smoking group (-1.4% to -93.6%). Serum CC16, an indicator of lung epithelial injury, was not significantly different between groups.

This randomized, open-label, ambulatory, controlled clinical study investigated biomarkers associated with cardiovascular risk and biomarkers of exposure to 10 selected harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHC) in cigarette smoke in 316 male and female Polish smokers. Subjects were randomized to continue smoking conventional cigarettes (CC; N=79) or switch to smoking the Electrically Heated Cigarette Smoking System series-K cigarette (EHCSS-K6; N=237). Biomarker assessments were performed at several time points during the study at baseline and during the 1-month investigational period. The primary biomarkers were high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and white blood cell counts. No statistically significant differences in the two primary biomarkers were found between the study groups at the end of the study. End-of-study comparisons of secondary biomarkers between study groups indicated an increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and reductions in red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit levels in the EHCSS-K6 group. All biomarkers of exposure to cigarette smoke HPHC were decreased in the EHCSS-K6 group, despite an increase in cigarette consumption, compared to the CC group. There were no apparent differences in any of the safety assessment parameters between the groups, and the overall incidence of study-related adverse events was low.

A randomized, controlled, open-label parallel-group, single-center study to determine biomarkers of exposure to 12 selected harmful and potentially harmful constituents (HPHC) in cigarette smoke and urinary excretion of mutagenic material in 72 male and female Korean subjects smoking Lark One cigarettes (1.0mg tar, 0.1mg nicotine, and 1.5mg CO) at baseline. Subjects were randomized to continue smoking Lark One cigarettes, or switch to an Electrically Heated Cigarette Smoking System (EHCSS) and EHCSS-K3 cigarette (3mg tar, 0.2mg nicotine, and 0.6 mg CO), or to no-smoking. The mean decreases from baseline to Day 8 were statistically significant (all p<0.05) for 10 of 12 HPHC in mainstream cigarette smoke including CO (the primary objective) in the EHCSS-K3 group (range: -1.5% to -74.2%). Exposure to the other determined HPHC was not significantly different. In the Lark One group, the mean exposure to 6 of 12 HPHC in cigarette smoke was significantly (all p<0.05) decreased; however, exposure to CO was significantly increased. The largest mean reductions in biomarkers of exposure to HPHC occurred in smokers who switched to no-smoking (-3.4% to -98.9%). The mean excretion of mutagenic material was significantly decreased (p<0.05) in the EHCSS-K3 and no-smoking groups (-31.8% and -45.3%, respectively), and increased in the Lark One group (+31.5%).
