文摘
The rapid identification of protein biomarkers in biofluids is important to drug discovery and development. Here, we describe a general proteomic approach for the discovery and identification of proteins that exhibit a statistically significant difference in abundance in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) before and after pharmacological intervention. This approach, differential mass spectrometry (dMS), is based on the analysis of full scan mass spectrometry data. The dMS workflow does not require complex mixing and pooling strategies, or isotope labeling techniques. Accordingly, clinical samples can be analyzed individually, allowing the use of longitudinal designs and within-subject data analysis in which each subject acts as its own control. As a proof of concept, we performed multifactorial dMS analyses on CSF samples drawn at 6 time points from n = 6 cisterna magna ported (CMP) rhesus monkeys treated with 2 potent gamma secretase inhibitors (GSI) or comparable vehicle in a 3-way crossover study that included a total of 108 individual CSF samples. Using analysis of variance and statistical filtering on the aligned and normalized LC-MS data sets, we detected 26 features that were significantly altered in CSF by drug treatment. Of those 26 features, which belong to 10 distinct isotopic distributions, 20 were identified by MS/MS as 7 peptides from CD99, a cell surface protein. Six features from the remaining 3 isotopic distributions were not identified. A subsequent analysis showed that the relative abundance of these 26 features showed the same temporal profile as the ELISA measured levels of CSF Abeta 42 peptide, a known pharmacodynamic marker for γ-secretase inhibition. These data demonstrate that dMS is a promising approach for the discovery, quantification, and identification of candidate target engagement biomarkers in CSF.
