Abstract
INTRODUCTION Radiological/nuclear accidents, hostile military activity, or terrorist strikes have the potential to expose a large number of civilians and military personnel to high doses of radiation resulting in the development of acute radiation syndrome and delayed effects of exposure. Thus, there is an urgent need for sensitive and specific assays to assess the levels of radiation exposure to individuals. Such radiation exposures are expected to alter primary cellular proteomic processes, resulting in multifaceted biological responses. AREAS COVERED This article covers the application of proteomics, a promising and fast developing technology based on quantitative and qualitative measurements of protein molecules for possible rapid measurement of radiation exposure levels. Recent advancements in high-resolution chromatography, mass spectrometry, high-throughput, and bioinformatics have resulted in comprehensive (relative quantitation) and precise (absolute quantitation) approaches for the discovery and accuracy of key protein biomarkers of radiation exposure. Such proteome biomarkers might prove useful for assessing radiation exposure levels as well as for extrapolating the pharmaceutical dose of countermeasures for humans based on efficacy data generated using animal models. EXPERT OPINION The field of proteomics promises to be a valuable asset in evaluating levels of radiation exposure and characterizing radiation injury biomarkers.

Abstract
The global analysis of the proteome is an important tool in cell biology. Comparative proteomic evaluations can identify and compare the composition, dynamics, and modifications between different samples. Comparing tissue proteomes under different conditions is crucial for advancing the biomedical field. Fluorescence two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) is a sensitive and robust biochemical method that can compare multiple protein samples over a broad dynamic range on the same analytical gel and can be used to establish differentially expressed protein profiles between different sample groups. 2D-DIGE involves fluorescently labeling protein samples with CyDye flours, via a two-dye or a three-dye system, pre-separation by isoelectric point, and molecular weight. DIGE circumvents gel-to-gel variability by multiplexing samples to a single gel and through the use of a pooled internal standard for normalization, thus enabling accurate high-resolution analysis of differences in protein abundance between samples. This chapter discusses 2D-DIGE as a comparative tissue proteomic technique and describes in detail the experimental steps required for comparative proteomic analysis employing both options of two-dye and three-dye DIGE minimal labeling.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the major type of primary liver cancer. In this chapter, we describe our routine two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) workflow for analysis of mouse liver tissue in physiological conditions, as well as of mouse HCC. 2D-DIGE still constitutes a valuable comparative proteomics technique, not only providing information on global protein expression in a sample but also on potential posttranslational protein modifications, occurrence of protein degradation fragments, and the existence of protein isoforms. Thus, 2D-DIGE analysis provides highly complementary data to non-gel-based shotgun mass spectrometry (MS) methods (e.g., liquid chromatography (LC)-MS/MS)-allowing, for example, identification of novel protein biomarkers for HCC or increasing insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying hepatocarcinogenesis.

Abstract
Lung cancer is responsible for the most cancer-related mortality worldwide and the mechanism of its development is poorly understood. Proteomics has become a powerful tool offering vital knowledge related to cancer development. Using a two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) approach, we sought to compare tissue samples from non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients taken from the tumor center and tumor margin. Two subtypes of NSCLC, adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) were compared. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD032736 and PXD032962 for ADC and SCC, respectively. For ADC proteins, 26 significant canonical pathways were identified, including Rho signaling pathways, a semaphorin neuronal repulsive signaling pathway, and epithelial adherens junction signaling. For SCC proteins, nine significant canonical pathways were identified, including hypoxia-inducible factor-1α signaling, thyroid hormone biosynthesis, and phagosome maturation. Proteins differentiating the tumor center and tumor margin were linked to cancer invasion and progression, including cell migration, adhesion and invasion, cytoskeletal structure, protein folding, anaerobic metabolism, tumor angiogenesis, EMC transition, epithelial adherens junctions, and inflammatory responses. In conclusion, we identified several proteins that are important for the better characterization of tumor development and molecular specificity of both lung cancer subtypes. We also identified proteins that may be important as biomarkers and/or targets for anticancer therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is a key enzyme that mediates the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Skeletal muscles contain high levels of the cytosolic isoform CA3. This enzyme has antioxidative function and plays a crucial role in the maintenance of intracellular pH homeostasis. AREAS COVERED Since elevated levels of serum CA3, often in combination with other muscle-specific proteins, are routinely used as a marker of general muscle damage, it was of interest to examine recent analyses of this enzyme carried out by modern proteomics. This review summarizes the mass spectrometry-based identification and evaluation of CA3 in normal, adapting, dystrophic, and aging skeletal muscle tissues. EXPERT OPINION The mass spectrometric characterization of CA3 confirmed this enzyme as a highly useful marker of both physiological and pathophysiological alterations in skeletal muscles. Cytosolic CA3 is clearly enriched in slow-twitching type I fibers, which makes it an ideal marker for studying fiber type shifting and muscle adaptations. Importantly, neuromuscular diseases feature distinct alterations in CA3 in skeletal muscle tissues versus biofluids, such as serum. Characteristic changes of CA3 in age-related muscle wasting and dystrophinopathy established this enzyme as a suitable biomarker candidate for differential diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression and therapeutic impact.

Skeletal muscle alterations in tachycardia-induced heart failure are linked to deficient natriuretic peptide signalling and are attenuated by RAS-/NEP-inhibition. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0225937. [PMID: 31800630 PMCID: PMC6892497 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0225937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2019] [Accepted: 11/15/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Heart failure induced cachexia is highly prevalent. Insights into disease progression are lacking. Methods Early state of left ventricular dysfunction (ELVD) and symptomatic systolic heart failure (HF) were both induced in rabbits by tachypacing. Tissue of limb muscle (LM) was subjected to histologic assessment. For unbiased characterisation of early and late myopathy, a proteomic approach followed by computational pathway-analyses was performed and combined with pathway-focused gene expression analyses. Specimen of thoracic diaphragm (TD) served as control for inactivity-induced skeletal muscle alterations. In a subsequent study, inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-system and neprilysin (RAS-/NEP) was compared to placebo. Results HF was accompanied by loss of protein content (8.7±0.4% vs. 7.0±0.5%, mean±SEM, control vs. HF, p<0.01) and a slow-to-fast fibre type switch, establishing hallmarks of cachexia. In ELVD, the enzymatic set-up of LM and TD shifted to a catabolic state. A disturbed malate-aspartate shuttle went well with increased enzymes of glycolysis, forming the enzymatic basis for enforced anoxic energy regeneration. The histological findings and the pathway analysis of metabolic results drew the picture of suppressed PGC-1α signalling, linked to the natriuretic peptide system. In HF, natriuretic peptide signalling was desensitised, as confirmed by an increase in the ratio of serum BNP to tissue cGMP (57.0±18.6pg/ml/nM/ml vs. 165.8±16.76pg/ml/nM/ml, p<0.05) and a reduced expression of natriuretic peptide receptor-A. In HF, combined RAS-/NEP-inhibition prevented from loss in protein content (8.7±0.3% vs. 6.0±0.6% vs. 8.3±0.9%, Baseline vs. HF-Placebo vs. HF-RAS/NEP, p<0.05 Baseline vs. HF-Placebo, p = 0.7 Baseline vs. HF-RAS/NEP). Conclusions Tachypacing-induced heart failure entails a generalised myopathy, preceding systolic dysfunction. The characterisation of “pre-cachectic” state and its progression is feasible. Early enzymatic alterations of LM depict a catabolic state, rendering LM prone to futile substrate metabolism. A combined RAS-/NEP-inhibition ameliorates cardiac-induced myopathy independent of systolic function, which could be linked to stabilised natriuretic peptide/cGMP/PGC-1α signalling.

Abstract
More than a decade has passed since the finalization of the Human Genome Project. Omics technologies made a huge leap from trendy and very expensive to routinely executed and relatively cheap assays. Simultaneously, we understood that omics is not a panacea for every problem in the area of human health and personalized medicine. Whilst in some areas of research omics showed immediate results, in other fields, including asthma, it only allowed us to identify the incredibly complicated molecular processes. Along with their possibilities, omics technologies also bring many issues connected to sample collection, analyses and interpretation. It is often impossible to separate the intrinsic imperfection of omics from asthma heterogeneity. Still, many insights and directions from applied omics were acquired-presumable phenotypic clusters of patients, plausible biomarkers and potential pathways involved. Omics technologies develop rapidly, bringing improvements also to asthma research. These improvements, together with our growing understanding of asthma subphenotypes and underlying cellular processes, will likely play a role in asthma management strategies.

Identification of protein changes in the blood plasma of lung cancer patients subjected to chemotherapy using a 2D-DIGE approach. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0223840.

Abstract
A comparative analysis of blood samples (depleted of albumin and IgG) obtained from lung cancer patients before chemotherapy versus after a second cycle of chemotherapy was performed using two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). The control group consisted of eight patients with non-cancerous lung diseases, and the experimental group consisted of four adenocarcinoma (ADC) and four squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) patients. Analyses of gels revealed significant changes in proteins and/or their proteoforms between control patients and lung cancer patients, both before and after a second cycle of chemotherapy. Most of these proteins were related to inflammation, including acute phase proteins (APPs) such as forms of haptoglobin and transferrin, complement component C3, and clusterin. The variable expression of APPs can potentially be used for profiling lung cancer. The greatest changes observed after chemotherapy were in transferrin and serotransferrin, which likely reflect disturbances in iron turnover after chemotherapy-induced anaemia. Significant changes in plasma proteins between ADC and SCC patients were also revealed, suggesting use of plasma vitronectin as a potential marker of SCC.

Abstract
The mass spectrometric analysis of skeletal muscle proteins has used both peptide-centric and protein-focused approaches. The term 'top-down proteomics' is often used in relation to studying purified proteoforms and their post-translational modifications. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, in combination with peptide generation for the identification and characterization of intact proteoforms being present in two-dimensional spots, plays a critical role in specific applications of top-down proteomics. A decisive bioanalytical advantage of gel-based and top-down approaches is the initial bioanalytical focus on intact proteins, which usually enables the swift identification and detailed characterisation of specific proteoforms. In this review, we describe the usage of two-dimensional gel electrophoretic top-down proteomics and related approaches for the systematic analysis of key components of the contractile apparatus, with a special focus on myosin heavy and light chains and their associated regulatory proteins. The detailed biochemical analysis of proteins belonging to the thick and thin skeletal muscle filaments has decisively improved our biochemical understanding of structure-function relationships within the contractile apparatus. Gel-based and top-down proteomics has clearly established a variety of slow and fast isoforms of myosin, troponin and tropomyosin as excellent markers of fibre type specification and dynamic muscle transition processes.
