Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mass spectrometry-based proteomics reveals dynamic molecular signatures underlying phenotypes reflecting normal and perturbed conditions in living systems. Although valuable on its own, the proteome has only one level of moleclar information, with the genome, epigenome, transcriptome, and metabolome, all providing complementary information. Multi-omic analysis integrating information from one or more of these other domains with proteomic information provides a more complete picture of molecular contributors to dynamic biological systems. AREAS COVERED Here, we discuss the improvements to mass spectrometry-based technologies, focused on peptide-based, bottom-up approaches that have enabled deep, quantitative characterization of complex proteomes. These advances are facilitating the integration of proteomics data with other 'omic information, providing a more complete picture of living systems. We also describe the current state of bioinformatics software and approaches for integrating proteomics and other 'omics data, critical for enabling new discoveries driven by multi-omics. EXPERT COMMENTARY Multi-omics, centered on the integration of proteomics information with other 'omic information, has tremendous promise for biological and biomedical studies. Continued advances in approaches for generating deep, reliable proteomic data and bioinformatics tools aimed at integrating data across 'omic domains will ensure the discoveries offered by these multi-omic studies continue to increase.

Direct molecular dissection of tumor parenchyma from tumor stroma in tumor xenograft using mass spectrometry-based glycoproteomics. Oncotarget 2018; 9:26431-26452. [PMID: 29899869 PMCID: PMC5995176 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.25449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2018] [Accepted: 05/02/2018] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
The most widely used cancer animal model is the human-murine tumor xenograft. Unbiased molecular dissection of tumor parenchyma versus stroma in human-murine xenografts is critical for elucidating dysregulated protein networks/pathways and developing therapeutics that may target these two functionally codependent compartments. Although antibody-reliant technologies (e.g., immunohistochemistry, imaging mass cytometry) are capable of distinguishing tumor-proper versus stromal proteins, the breadth or extent of targets is limited. Here, we report an antibody-free targeted cross-species glycoproteomic (TCSG) approach that enables direct dissection of human tumor parenchyma from murine tumor stroma at the molecular/protein level in tumor xenografts at a selectivity rate presently unattainable by other means. This approach was used to segment/dissect and obtain the protein complement phenotype of the tumor stroma and parenchyma of the metastatic human lung adenocarcinoma A549 xenograft, with no need for tissue microdissection prior to mass-spectrometry analysis. An extensive molecular map of the tumor proper and the associated microenvironment was generated along with the top functional N-glycosylated protein networks enriched in each compartment. Importantly, immunohistochemistry-based cross-validation of selected parenchymal and stromal targets applied on human tissue samples of lung adenocarcinoma and normal adjacent tissue is indicative of a noteworthy translational capacity for this unique approach that may facilitate identifications of novel targets for next generation antibody therapies and development of real time preclinical tumor models.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mass spectrometry (MS) is the premier tool for discovering novel disease-associated protein biomarkers. Unfortunately, when applied to complex body fluid samples, MS has poor sensitivity for the detection of low abundance biomarkers (≪10 ng/mL), derived directly from the diseased tissue cells or pathogens. Areas covered: Herein we discuss the strengths and drawbacks of technologies used to concentrate low abundance analytes in body fluids, with the aim to improve the effective sensitivity for MS discovery. Solvent removal by dry-down or dialysis, and immune-depletion of high abundance serum or plasma proteins, is shown to have disadvantages compared to positive selection of the candidate biomarkers by affinity enrichment. A theoretical analysis of affinity enrichment reveals that the yield for low abundance biomarkers is a direct function of the binding affinity (Association/Dissociation rates) used for biomarker capture. In addition, a high affinity capture pre processing step can effectively dissociate the candidate biomarker from partitioning with high abundance proteins such as albumin. Expert commentary: Properly designed high affinity capture materials can enrich the yield of low abundance (0.1-10 picograms/mL) candidate biomarkers for MS detection. Affinity capture and concentration, as an upfront step in sample preparation for MS, combined with MS advances in software and hardware that improve the resolution of the chromatographic separation can yield a transformative new class of low abundance biomarkers predicting disease risk or disease latency.
