Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths. Saliva diagnosis is an essential approach for clinical applications owing to its noninvasive and material-rich features. The purpose of this study was to investigate differences in wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-based recognition of salivary protein N-linked glycan profiles to distinguish non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients from controls. We used WGA-magnetic particle conjugates to isolate glycoproteins in the pooled saliva of healthy volunteers (HV, n = 35), patients with benign pulmonary disease (BPD, n = 35), lung adenocarcinoma (ADC, n = 35), and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC, n = 35), following to release the N-linked glycans from the isolated proteins with PNGase F, and further identified and annotated the released glycans by MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS, respectively. The results showed that 34, 35, 39, and 44 N-glycans recognized by WGA were identified and annotated from pooled saliva samples of HV, BPD, ADC, and SCC, respectively. Furthermore, the proportion of N-glycans recognized by WGA in BPD (81.2 %), ADC (90.1 %), and SCC (88.7 %), increased compared to HV (71.9 %). Two N-glycan peaks (m/z 2286.799, and 3399.211) specifically recognized by WGA were present only in NSCLC. These findings suggest that altered salivary glycopatterns such as sialic acids and GlcNAc containing N-glycans recognized by WGA might serve as potential personalized biomarkers for the diagnosis of NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) harbor abundant glycans that mediate various functions, such as intercellular communication and disease advancement, which play significant roles in disease progression. However, the presence of EV heterogeneity in body fluids and the complex nature of the glycan structures have posed challenges for the detection of EV glycans. In this study, we provide a streamlined method integrated, membrane-specific separation with lectin-induced aggregation strategy (MESSAGE), for multiplexed profiling of EV glycans. By leveraging a rationally designed lectin-induced aggregation strategy, the expression of EV glycans is converted to size-based signals. With the assistance learning machine algorithms, the MESSAGE strategy with high sensitivity, specificity, and simplicity can be used for early cancer diagnosis and classification, as well as monitoring cancer metastasis via 20 μL plasma sample within 2 h. Furthermore, our platform holds promise for advancing the field of EV-based liquid biopsy for clinical applications, opening new possibilities for the profiling of EV glycan signatures in various disease states.

Carbodiimide assisted preparation of immobilized lectin stationary phases for high performance lectin affinity chromatography of sub-glycoproteomics from cancer and disease free human sera. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2024; 1233:123992. [PMID: 38199060 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2023.123992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a precursor carboxy-silica support was demonstrated in the immobilization of two different lectins, namely concanavalin A (Con A) and wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) for use in high performance lectin affinity chromatography (LAC) for the selective capturing and enrichment of glycoproteins from healthy/disease free and cancer human sera. The lectin columns thus obtained (i.e., Con A- and WGA-columns) showed no nonspecific interactions toward some chosen standard glycoproteins and non-glycoproteins. Both columns were shown in sub-glycoproteomics enrichment from human sera including disease free and adenocarcinoma cancer sera. The collected fractions were subjected to LC-MS/MS for identification of the captured glycoproteins, whereby the total number of identified proteins using Con A column from disease-free and cancer sera were 164 and 188, respectively while 133 and 103 proteins were identified in the fractions captured by the WGA column from disease-free and cancer sera samples, respectively. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between the disease free and cancer sera in both the Con A and WGA column fractions were identified via the plot of the abundance vs. the protein ratio whereby the binary logarithm of average intensities of cancer and disease free sera were plotted against the binary logarithm of cancer/disease free sera ratios. The proteins that exhibit log 2 (cancer/healthy) ratio values greater than +2 and less than -2 in both categories are considered as DEPs. Furthermore, for visualization of the data arrangement, Q-Q scatterplot were also used whereby the binary logarithm of cancer serum was plotted against the binary logarithm of disease-free serum for both Con A and WGA. For Con A column, 28 up-regulated and 10 down regulated proteins were identified with a total of 38 DEPs while only two being non-glycoproteins. Furthermore, the up-regulated, and down regulated proteins recorded for WGA column are 14 and 6, respectively, totaling 20 proteins including 3 non-glycoproteins. Some of the non-specific binding to lectin are most likely due to protein-protein interactions.

Abstract
Poor lifestyle choices and genetic predisposition are factors that increase the number of cancer cases, one example being breast cancer, the third most diagnosed type of malignancy. Currently, there is a demand for the development of new strategies to ensure early detection and treatment options that could contribute to the complete remission of breast tumors, which could lead to increased overall survival rates. In this context, the glycans observed at the surface of cancer cells are presented as efficient tumor cell markers. These carbohydrate structures can be recognized by lectins which can act as decoders of the glycocode. The application of plant lectins as tools for diagnosis/treatment of breast cancer encompasses the detection and sorting of glycans found in healthy and malignant cells. Here, we present an overview of the most recent studies in this field, demonstrating the potential of lectins as: mapping agents to detect differentially expressed glycans in breast cancer, as histochemistry/cytochemistry analysis agents, in lectin arrays, immobilized in chromatographic matrices, in drug delivery, and as biosensing agents. In addition, we describe lectins that present antiproliferative effects by themselves and/or in conjunction with other drugs in a synergistic effect.

Abstract
Affinity monolith chromatography (AMC) is a liquid chromatographic technique that utilizes a monolithic support with a biological ligand or related binding agent to isolate, enrich, or detect a target analyte in a complex matrix. The target-specific interaction exhibited by the binding agents makes AMC attractive for the separation or detection of a wide range of compounds. This article will review the basic principles of AMC and recent developments in this field. The supports used in AMC will be discussed, including organic, inorganic, hybrid, carbohydrate, and cryogel monoliths. Schemes for attaching binding agents to these monoliths will be examined as well, such as covalent immobilization, biospecific adsorption, entrapment, molecular imprinting, and coordination methods. An overview will then be given of binding agents that have recently been used in AMC, along with their applications. These applications will include bioaffinity chromatography, immunoaffinity chromatography, immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography, and dye-ligand or biomimetic affinity chromatography. The use of AMC in chiral separations and biointeraction studies will also be discussed.

Abstract
Glycosylation is one of the most significant post-translational modifications occurring to proteins, since it affects some of their basic properties, such as their half-life or biological activity. The developments in analytical methodologies has greatly contributed to a more comprehensive understanding of the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the glycosylation state of proteins. Despite those advances, the difficulty of a full characterization of glycosylation still remains, mainly due to the complexity of the glycoprotein and/or glycopeptide mixture especially when they are present in complex biological samples. For this reason, various techniques that allow a prior selective enrichment of exclusively glycosylated proteins or glycopeptides have been developed in the past and are coupled either on- or off- line with separation and detection methods. One of the most commonly implemented enrichment methods includes the use of lectin proteins immobilized on various solid supports. Lectins are a group of different, naturally occurring proteins that share a common characteristic, which concerns their affinity for specific sugar moieties of glycoproteins. This review presents the different formats and conditions for the use of lectins in affinity chromatography and in solid phase extraction, including their use in dispersive mode, along with the recent progress made on either commercial or home-made lectin-based affinity sorbents, which can lead to a fast and automated glycosylation analysis.

Abstract
Changes in glycoprotein content, altered glycosylations, and aberrant glycan structures are increasingly recognized as cancer hallmarks. Because breast cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer deaths in the world, it is highly urgent to find other reliable biomarkers for its initial diagnosis and to learn as much as possible about this disease. In this Review, the applications of lectins to a screening of potential breast cancer biomarkers published during recent years are overviewed. These data provide a deeper insight into the use of modern strategies, technologies, and scientific knowledge in glycoproteomic breast cancer research. Particular attention is concentrated on the use of lectin-based affinity techniques, applied independently or most frequently in combination with mass spectrometry, as an effective tool for the targeting, separation, and reliable identification of glycoprotein molecules. Individual procedures and lectins used in published glycoproteomic studies of breast-cancer-related glycoproteins are discussed. The summarized approaches have the potential for use in diagnostic and predictive applications. Finally, the use of lectins is briefly discussed from the view of their future applications in the analysis of glycoproteins in cancer.

Abstract
Two types of monolithic stationary phases with incorporated hydroxyl functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (OH-MWCNTs) were introduced and evaluated, namely, the poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monolith, denoted as poly(GMA-co-EDMA), and a diol derivative of the poly(GMA-co-EDMA) monolith. The diol derivative monolith was obtained by subjecting the poly(GMA-co-EDMA) monolith with physically incorporated OH-MWCNTs to an acid treatment with 0.1 M sulfuric acid at a moderate temperature of 50 °C for a total of 7.5 h. Also, the poly(GMA-co-EDMA) monolith with both physically and covalently incorporated OH-MWCNTs was prepared by subjecting the physically incorporated monolithic column to a Lewis acid catalyzed reaction in the presence of BF3 in order to react some of the OH-MWCNTs with the epoxy rings of the poly(GMA-co-EDMA) monolith. In all cases, the OH-MWCNTs were subjected to high power sonication at an output power of 10 W for 15 min with the aim of better dispersing the incorporated nanotubes into the monoliths under investigation. In fact, high power sonication yielded columns with a relatively higher plate count (∼2 fold increase) when compared to low power sonication. While the incorporation of OH-MWCNTs into the poly(GMA-co-EDMA) monolith acted as an amendment boosting the nonpolar character of the monolith and providing additional π-π interactions, the diol derivative monolith with its polar backbone character acted nearly as a support for the OH-MWCNT stationary phase giving rise to a carbon nanotube sorbent providing hydrophobic and π-π interactions via the incorporated OH-MWCNTs. These two kinds of columns were evaluated using alkylbenzenes, toluene derivatives, aniline compounds, phenols and polyaromatic hydrocarbons.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation plays fundamental roles in many biological processes as one of the most common, and the most complex, posttranslational modification. Alterations in glycosylation profile are now known to be associated with many diseases. As a result, the discovery and detailed characterization of glycoprotein disease biomarkers is a primary interest of biomedical research. Advances in mass spectrometry (MS)-based glycoproteomics and glycomics are increasingly enabling qualitative and quantitative approaches for site-specific structural analysis of protein glycosylation. While the complexity presented by glycan heterogeneity and the wide dynamic range of clinically relevant samples like plasma, serum, cerebrospinal fluid, and tissue make comprehensive analyses of the glycoproteome a challenging task, the ongoing efforts into the development of glycoprotein enrichment, enzymatic digestion, and separation strategies combined with novel quantitative MS methodologies have greatly improved analytical sensitivity, specificity, and throughput. This review summarizes current MS-based glycoproteomics approaches and highlights recent advances in its application to cancer biomarker and neurodegenerative disease research.

Abstract
Affinity monolith chromatography, or AMC, is a liquid chromatographic method in which the support is a monolith and the stationary phase is a biological-binding agent or related mimic. AMC has become popular for the isolation of biochemicals, for the measurement of various analytes, and for studying biological interactions. This review will examine the principles and applications of AMC. The materials that have been used to prepare AMC columns will be discussed, which have included various organic polymers, silica, agarose, and cryogels. Immobilization schemes that have been used in AMC will also be considered. Various binding agents and applications that have been reported for AMC will then be described. These applications will include the use of AMC for bioaffinity chromatography, immunoaffinity chromatography, dye-ligand affinity chromatography, and immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography. The use of AMC with chiral stationary phases and as a tool to characterize biological interactions will also be examined.

Abstract
The surface of nanoporous gold (np-Au) monoliths was modified via a flow method with the lectin Concanavalin A (Con A) to develop a substrate for separation and extraction of glycoproteins. Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of α-lipoic acid (LA) on the np-Au monoliths were prepared followed by activation of the terminal carboxyl groups to create amine reactive esters that were utilized in the immobilization of Con A. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to determine the surface coverages of LA and Con A on np-Au monoliths which were found to be 1.31×10(18) and 1.85×10(15)moleculesm(-2), respectively. An in situ solution depletion method was developed that enabled surface coverage characterization without damaging the substrate and suggesting the possibility of regeneration. Using this method, the surface coverages of LA and Con A were found to be 0.989×10(18) and 1.32×10(15)moleculesm(-2), respectively. The selectivity of the Con A-modified np-Au monolith for the high mannose-containing glycoprotein ovalbumin (OVA) versus negative control non-glycosylated bovine serum albumin (BSA) was demonstrated by the difference in the ratio of the captured molecules to the immobilized Con A molecules, with OVA:Con A=2.3 and BSA:Con A=0.33. Extraction of OVA from a 1:3 mole ratio mixture with BSA was demonstrated by the greater amount of depletion of OVA concentration during the circulation with the developed substrate. A significant amount of captured OVA was eluted using α-methyl mannopyranoside as a competitive ligand. This work is motivated by the need to develop new materials for chromatographic separation and extraction substrates for use in preparative and analytical procedures in glycomics.

Abstract
This review article expands on the previous one (S. Selvaraju and Z. El Rassi, Electrophoresis 2012, 33, 74-88) by reviewing pertinent literature in the period extending from early 2011 to present. As the previous review article, the present one is concerned with proteomic sample preparation (e.g., depletion of high-abundance proteins, reduction of the protein dynamic concentration range, enrichment of a particular subproteome), and the subsequent chromatographic and/or electrophoretic prefractionation prior to peptide separation and identification by LC-MS/MS. This review article, however, is distinguished from its earlier version by expanding on capturing/enriching subphosphoproteomes by immobilized metal affinity chromatography and metal oxide affinity chromatography. Seventy-seven papers published in the period extending from mid-2011 to the present have been reviewed. By no means this review article is exhaustive, given the fact that its aim is to give a concise treatment of the latest developments in the field.

Abstract
The advance of glycoproteomic technologies has offered unique insights into the importance of glycosylation in determining the functional roles of a protein within a cell. Biologically active glycoproteins include the categories of enzymes, hormones, proteins involved in cell proliferation, cell membrane proteins involved in cell-cell recognition, and communication events or secreted proteins, just to name a few. The recent progress in analytical instrumentation, methodologies, and computational approaches has enabled a detailed exploration of glycan structure, connectivity, and heterogeneity, underscoring the staggering complexity of the glycome repertoire in a cell. A variety of approaches involving the use of spectroscopy, MS, separation, microfluidic, and microarray technologies have been used alone or in combination to tackle the glycoproteome challenge, the research results of these efforts being captured in an overwhelming number of annual publications. This work is aimed at reviewing the major developments and accomplishments in the field of glycoproteomics, with focus on the most recent advancements (2012-2014) that involve the use of capillary separations and MS detection.

Abstract
The analysis of protein glycosylation is important for biomedical and biopharmaceutical research. Recent advances in LC-MS analysis have enabled the identification of glycosylation sites, the characterisation of glycan structures and the identification and quantification of glycoproteins and glycopeptides. However, this type of analysis remains challenging due to the low abundance of glycopeptides in complex protein digests, the microheterogeneity at glycosylation sites, ion suppression effects and the competition for ionisation by co-eluting peptides. Specific sample preparation is necessary for comprehensive and site-specific glycosylation analyses using MS. Therefore, researchers continue to pursue new columns to broaden their applications. The current manuscript covers recent literature published from 2008 to 2013. The stationary phases containing various chemical bonding methods or ligands immobilisation strategies on solid supports that selectively enrich N-linked or sialylated N-glycopeptides are categorised with either physical or chemical modes of binding. These categories include lectin affinity, hydrophilic interactions, boronate affinity, titanium dioxide affinity, hydrazide chemistry and other separation techniques. This review should aid in better understanding the syntheses and physicochemical properties of each type of stationary phases for enriching glycoproteins and glycopeptides.

Abstract
Combinatorial peptide ligand library (CPLL) was evaluated as an off line step to narrow the differences of protein concentration in human serum prior to the capturing of human fucome from disease-free and breast cancer sera by a multicolumn platform via lectin affinity chromatography (LAC) followed by the fractionation of the captured glycoproteins by reversed phase chromatography (RPC). Two monolithic lectin columns specific to fucose, namely Aleuria aurantia lectin (AAL) and Lotus tetragonolobus agglutinin (LTA) columns were utilized to capture the fucome, which was subsequently fractionated by RPC yielding desalted fractions in volatile acetonitrile-rich mobile phase, which after vacuum evaporation were subjected to tryptic digestion prior to LC-MS/MS analysis. AAL has a strong affinity towards core fucosylated N-glycans and has a weak binding towards fucose in the outer arm while LTA can bind to glycans having fucose present in the outer arm. The combined strategy consisting of the CPLL, multicolumn platform and LC-MS/MS analysis permitted the identification of the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in breast cancer serum yielding 58 DEPs in both the LTA and AAL fractions with 6 DEPs common to both lectins. 17 DEPs were of the low abundance type, 16 DEPs of the borderline abundance type, 4 DEPs of the medium abundance type and 15 DEPs of the high abundance type. The remaining 6 DEPs are of unknown concentration. Only proteins exhibiting 99.9% protein identification probability, 95% peptide identification probability, and a minimum of 5 unique peptides were considered in finding the DEPs via scatterplots.

Abstract
A fully integrated platform was developed for capturing/fractionating human fucome from disease-free and breast cancer sera. It comprised a multicolumn operated by HPLC pumps and switching valves for the simultaneous depletion of high abundance proteins via affinity-based subtraction and the capturing of fucosylated glycoproteins via lectin affinity chromatography followed by the fractionation of the captured glycoproteins by reversed phase chromatography (RPC). Two lectin columns specific to fucose, namely Aleuria aurantia lectin (AAL) and Lotus tetragonolobus agglutinin (LTA) were utilized. The platform allowed the "cascading" of the serum sample from column-to-column in the liquid phase with no sample manipulation between the various steps. This guaranteed no sample loss and no propagation of experimental biases between the various columns. Finally, the fucome was fractionated by RPC yielding desalted fractions in volatile acetonitrile-rich mobile phase, which after vacuum evaporation were subjected to trypsinolysis for LC-MS/MS analysis. This permitted the identification of the differentially expressed proteins (DEP) in breast cancer serum yielding a broad panel of 35 DEP from the combined LTA and AAL captured proteins and a narrower panel of eight DEP that were commonly differentially expressed in both LTA and AAL fractions, which are considered as more representative of cancer altered fucome.

Abstract
Affinity monolith chromatography (AMC) is a type of liquid chromatography that uses a monolithic support and a biologically related binding agent as a stationary phase. AMC is a powerful method for the selective separation, analysis, or study of specific target compounds in a sample. This review discusses the basic principles of AMC and recent developments and applications of this method, with particular emphasis being given to work that has appeared in the last 5 years. Various materials that have been used to prepare columns for AMC are examined, including organic monoliths, silica monoliths, agarose monoliths, and cryogels. These supports have been used in AMC for formats that have ranged from traditional columns to disks, microcolumns, and capillaries. Many binding agents have also been employed in AMC, such as antibodies, enzymes, proteins, lectins, immobilized metal ions, and dyes. Some applications that have been reported with these binding agents in AMC are bioaffinity chromatography, immunoaffinity chromatography or immunoextraction, immobilized-metal-ion affinity chromatography, dye-ligand affinity chromatography, chiral separations, and biointeraction studies. Examples are presented from fields that include analytical chemistry, pharmaceutical analysis, clinical testing, and biotechnology. Current trends and possible directions in AMC are also discussed.

Abstract
Glycoproteomics is an important aspect in the research of cancer biomarker discovery. The objective of our study is to screen the profile of serum glycoproteins in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and to discover differentially expressed glycoproteins in HCC with or without metastasis. We collected serum from HCC patients and divided them into two groups (non-metastatic HCC group and metastatic HCC group) according to 2002 UICC TNM staging system. Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) lectin was used to enrich the serum glycoproteins by lectin affinity chromatography. The enriched glycoproteins were labeled with mass-balanced isobaric tags (iTRAQ) and analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Two differential glycoproteins were validated by Western blot and biochemical methods, respectively. Fifteen differential serum glycoproteins with WGA affinity were identified (p < 0.05). Among them, nine proteins were up-regulated (>1.5-folds) and six were down-regulated (<0.5-folds) in HCC patients with metastasis. Expression of alpha-1-antitrypsin (SERPINA1) and apolipoprotein A-I (APOA1) was validated by Western blot and biochemical methods, respectively (p < 0.05). Our study has obtained a set of HCC metastasis-associated glycoproteins which may serve as novel prognostic candidates and potential therapeutic targets for HCC metastasis. SERPINA1 might act as a potential glycoprotein biomarker of HCC metastasis.
