[PMID: 37256139 PMCID: PMC10225578 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1168023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Protein glycosylation is a widespread posttranslational modification that can impact the function of proteins. Dysregulated protein glycosylation has been linked to several diseases, including chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs). CRDs pose a significant public health threat globally, affecting the airways and other lung structures. Emerging researches suggest that glycosylation plays a significant role in regulating inflammation associated with CRDs. This review offers an overview of the abnormal glycoenzyme activity and corresponding glycosylation changes involved in various CRDs, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary arterial hypertension, non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, and lung cancer. Additionally, this review summarizes recent advances in glycomics and glycoproteomics-based protein glycosylation analysis of CRDs. The potential of glycoenzymes and glycoproteins for clinical use in the diagnosis and treatment of CRDs is also discussed.

Abstract
As the common and significant chemical modifications, post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in the functional proteome. Affected by the signal interference, low concentration, and insufficient ionization efficiency of impurities, the direct detection of PTMs by mass spectrometry (MS) still faces many challenges. Therefore, sample preparation and enrichment are an indispensable link before MS analysis of PTMs in proteomics. The rapid development of functionalized materials with diverse morphologies and compositions provides an avenue for sample preparation and enrichment for PTMs analysis. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the application of novel functionalized materials in sample preparation for phosphoproteomes and glycoproteomes analysis. In addition, this review specifically discusses the design and preparation of functionalized materials based on different enrichment mechanisms, and proposes research directions and potential challenges for proteomic PTMs research.

Differential Glycosylation Levels in Saliva from Patients with Lung or Breast Cancer: A Preliminary Assessment for Early Diagnostic Purposes. Metabolites 2021; 11:metabo11090566.

Abstract
Glycans play a fundamental role in several biological processes, such as cell-cell adhesion, signaling, and recognition. Similarly, abnormal glycosylation is involved in many pathological processes, among which include tumor growth and progression. Several highly glycosylated proteins found in blood are currently used in clinical practice as cancer biomarkers (e.g., CA125, PSA, and CA19-9). The development of novel non-invasive diagnostic procedures would greatly simplify the screening and discovery of pathologies at an early stage, thus also allowing for simpler treatment and a higher success rate. In this observational study carried out on 68 subjects diagnosed with either breast or lung cancer and 34 healthy volunteers, we hydrolyzed the glycoproteins in saliva and quantified the obtained free sugars (fucose, mannose, galactose, glucosamine, and galactosamine) by using high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed-amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD). The glycosidic profiles were compared by using multivariate statistical analysis, showing differential glycosylation patterns among the three categories. Furthermore, Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) analysis allowed obtaining a reliable and minimally invasive protocol able to discriminate between healthy and pathological subjects.

Abstract
N-linked glycoprotein is a highly interesting class of proteins for clinical and biological research. Over the last decade, large-scale profiling of N-linked glycoproteins and glycosylation sites from biological and clinical samples has been achieved through mass spectrometry-based glycoproteomic approaches. In this paper, we reviewed the human glycoproteomic profiles that have been reported in more than 80 individual studies, and mainly focused on the N-glycoproteins and glycosylation sites identified through their deglycosylated forms of glycosite-containing peptides. According to our analyses, more than 30,000 glycosite-containing peptides and 7,000 human glycoproteins have been identified from five different body fluids, twelve human tissues (or related cell lines), and four special cell types. As the glycoproteomic data is still missing for many organs and tissues, a systematical glycoproteomic analysis of various human tissues and body fluids using a uniform platform is still needed for an integrated map of human N-glycoproteomes.

Abstract
Glycosylation is one of the most common posttranslational modifications of proteins that plays essential roles in various biological processes, including protein folding, host-pathogen interaction, immune response, and inflammation and aberrant protein glycosylation is a well-known event in various disease states including cancer. As a result, it is critical to develop rapid and sensitive methods for the analysis of abnormal glycoproteins associated with diseases. Mass spectrometry (MS) in conjunction with different separation methods, such as capillary electrophoresis (CE), ion mobility (IM), and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has become a popular tool for glycoprotein analysis, providing highly informative fragments for structural identification of glycoproteins. This review provides an overview of the developments and accomplishments in the field of glycomics and glycoproteomics reported between 2014 and 2016.

Abstract
The glycoproteome remains severely understudied because of significant analytical challenges associated with glycoproteomics, the system-wide analysis of intact glycopeptides. This review introduces important structural aspects of protein N-glycosylation and summarizes the latest technological developments and applications in LC-MS/MS-based qualitative and quantitative N-glycoproteomics. These maturing technologies provide unique structural insights into the N-glycoproteome and its synthesis and regulation by complementing existing methods in glycoscience. Modern glycoproteomics is now sufficiently mature to initiate efforts to capture the molecular complexity displayed by the N-glycoproteome, opening exciting opportunities to increase our understanding of the functional roles of protein N-glycosylation in human health and disease.
