Anal Biochem 2024; 689:115497. [PMID: 38461948 DOI: 10.1016/j.ab.2024.115497] [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: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024]
Abstract
The naturally occurring peptides and digested proteins of fetal versus adult bovine serum were compared by LC-ESI-MS/MS after correction against noise from blank injections and random MS/MS spectra as statistical controls. Serum peptides were extracted by differential precipitation with mixtures of acetonitrile and water. Serum proteins were separated by partition chromatography over quaternary amine resin followed by tryptic digestion. The rigorous X!TANDEM goodness of fit algorithm that has a low error rate as demonstrated by low FDR q-values (q ≤ 0.01) showed qualitative and quantitative agreement with the SEQUEST cross correlation algorithm on 12,052 protein gene symbols. Tryptic digestion provided a quantitative identification of the serum proteins where observation frequency reflected known high abundance. In contrast, the naturally occurring peptides reflected the cleavage of common serum proteins such as C4A, C3, FGB, HPX, A2M but also proteins in lower concentration such as F13A1, IK, collagens and protocadherins. Proteins associated with cellular growth and development such as actins (ACT), ribosomal proteins like Ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6), synthetic enzymes and extracellular matrix factors were enriched in fetal calf serum. In contrast to the large literature from cord blood, IgG light chains were absent from fetal serum as observed by LC-ESI-MS/MS and confirmed by ELISA.

Abstract
Surface modifications can be applied to biomaterials to alter the various surface properties that influence protein-material interactions and the cellular response. The plasma protein fetuin-A has been found to adsorb to many biomaterials but details of its interactions with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and roles in regulating the immune response are not clear. Here, PDMS modifications are achieved by altering the ratio of PDMS formulations to control elastic modulus, and by coating PDMS with polydopamine (PDA) to attach fetuin-A. Surface characterization confirmed that altering the PDMS formulation changed the elastic modulus without affecting surface wetting properties. Surface roughness was measured using atomic force microscopy and surface chemistry was determined using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, with only minor changes detected on the softest samples. PDA deposition on PDMS was confirmed and contact angle measurements demonstrated an increase in hydrophilicity. Fetuin-A adsorption was influenced by the PDMS formulations, adsorption changed in a competitive plasma environment, and PDA was able to immobilize the greatest amount of fetuin-A. The inflammatory effects of fetuin-A were investigated, and data suggests that the elastic modulus influences cytokine secretion from macrophages at certain timepoints, a result likely due to varied protein amounts and orientations/conformations in response to material stiffness. The addition of a PDA layer demonstrated the potentially cytokine mitigating effect upon fetuin-A immobilization when compared to unmodified PDMS samples. The results provide new insight into the interactions of fetuin-A with PDMS and PDA, and the potential immune regulatory properties of fetuin-A modified materials.

Abstract
Fetal serum supports the immortal growth of mammalian cell lines in culture while adult serum leads to the terminal differentiation and death of cells in culture. Many of the proteins in fetal serum that support the indefinite division and growth of cancerous cell lines remain obscure. The peptides and proteins of fetal versus adult serum were analyzed by liquid chromatography, nano electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS). Three batches of fetal serum contained the Alpha Fetoprotein marker while adult serum batches did not. Insulin (INS), and insulin-like growth factor (ILGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF) and platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) were increased in fetal serum. New fetal growth factors including MEGF, HDGFRP and PSIP1 and soluble growth receptors such as TNFR, EGFR, NTRK2 and THRA were discovered. Addition of insulin or the homeotic transcription factor PSIP1, also referred to as Lens Epithelium Derived Growth Factor (LEDGF), partially restored the rounded phenotype of rapidly dividing cells but was not as effective as fetal serum. Thus, a new growth factor in fetal serum, LEDGF/PSIP1, was directly observed by tandem mass spectrometry and confirmed by add back experiments to cell culture media alongside insulin.

Abstract
Background A practical strategy to discover sepsis specific proteins may be to compare the plasma peptides and proteins from patients in the intensive care unit with and without sepsis. The aim was to discover proteins and/or peptides that show greater observation frequency and/or precursor intensity in sepsis. The endogenous tryptic peptides of ICU-Sepsis were compared to ICU Control, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, female normal, sepsis, heart attack, Alzheimer’s and multiple sclerosis along with their institution-matched controls, female normals and normal samples collected directly onto ice. Methods Endogenous tryptic peptides were extracted from individual sepsis and control EDTA plasma samples in a step gradient of acetonitrile for random and independent sampling by LC–ESI–MS/MS with a set of robust and sensitive linear quadrupole ion traps. The MS/MS spectra were fit to fully tryptic peptides within proteins using the X!TANDEM algorithm. The protein observation frequency was counted using the SEQUEST algorithm after selecting the single best charge state and peptide sequence for each MS/MS spectra. The protein observation frequency of ICU-sepsis versus ICU Control was subsequently tested by Chi square analysis. The average protein or peptide log10 precursor intensity was compared across disease and control treatments by ANOVA in the R statistical system. Results Peptides and/or phosphopeptides of common plasma proteins such as ITIH3, SAA2, SAA1, and FN1 showed increased observation frequency by Chi square (χ2 > 9, p < 0.003) and/or precursor intensity in sepsis. Cellular gene symbols with large Chi square values from tryptic peptides included POTEB, CTNNA1, U2SURP, KIF24, NLGN2, KSR1, GTF2H1, KIT, RPS6KL1, VAV2, HSPA7, SMC2, TCEB3B, ZNF300, SUPV3L1, ADAMTS20, LAMB4, MCCC1, SUPT6H, SCN9A, SBNO1, EPHA1, ABLIM2, cB5E3.2, EPHA10, GRIN2B, HIVEP2, CCL16, TKT, LRP2 and TMF1 amongst others showed increased observation frequency. Similarly, increased frequency of tryptic phosphopeptides were observed from POM121C, SCN8A, TMED8, NSUN7, SLX4, MADD, DNLZ, PDE3B, UTY, DEPDC7, MTX1, MYO1E, RXRB, SYDE1, FN1, PUS7L, FYCO1, USP26, ACAP2, AHI1, KSR2, LMAN1, ZNF280D and SLC8A2 amongst others. Increases in mean precursor intensity in peptides from common plasma proteins such as ITIH3, SAA2, SAA1, and FN1 as well as cellular proteins such as COL24A1, POTEB, KANK1, SDCBP2, DNAH11, ADAMTS7, MLLT1, TTC21A, TSHR, SLX4, MTCH1, and PUS7L among others were associated with sepsis. The processing of SAA1 included the cleavage of the terminal peptide D/PNHFRPAGLPEKY from the most hydrophilic point of SAA1 on the COOH side of the cystatin C binding that was most apparent in ICU-Sepsis patients compared to all other diseases and controls. Additional cleavage of SAA1 on the NH2 terminus side of the cystatin binding site were observed in ICU-Sepsis. Thus there was disease associated variation in the processing of SAA1 in ICU-Sepsis versus ICU controls or other diseases and controls. Conclusion Specific proteins and peptides that vary between diseases might be discovered by the random and independent sampling of multiple disease and control plasma from different hospital and clinics by LC–ESI–MS/MS for storage in a relational SQL Server database and analysis with the R statistical system that will be a powerful tool for clinical research. The processing of SAA1 may play an unappreciated role in the inflammatory response to Sepsis.

The plasma peptides of breast versus ovarian cancer. Clin Proteomics 2019; 16:43.

Abstract
Background There is a need to demonstrate a proof of principle that proteomics has the capacity to analyze plasma from breast cancer versus other diseases and controls in a multisite clinical trial design. The peptides or proteins that show a high observation frequency, and/or precursor intensity, specific to breast cancer plasma might be discovered by comparison to other diseases and matched controls. The endogenous tryptic peptides of breast cancer plasma were compared to ovarian cancer, female normal, sepsis, heart attack, Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis along with the institution-matched normal and control samples collected directly onto ice. Methods Endogenous tryptic peptides were extracted from individual breast cancer and control EDTA plasma samples in a step gradient of acetonitrile, and collected over preparative C18 for LC-ESI-MS/MS with a set of LTQ XL linear quadrupole ion traps working together in parallel to randomly and independently sample clinical populations. The MS/MS spectra were fit to fully tryptic peptides or phosphopeptides within proteins using the X!TANDEM algorithm. The protein observation frequency was counted using the SEQUEST algorithm after selecting the single best charge state and peptide sequence for each MS/MS spectra. The observation frequency was subsequently tested by Chi Square analysis. The log10 precursor intensity was compared by ANOVA in the R statistical system. Results Peptides and/or phosphopeptides of common plasma proteins such as APOE, C4A, C4B, C3, APOA1, APOC2, APOC4, ITIH3 and ITIH4 showed increased observation frequency and/or precursor intensity in breast cancer. Many cellular proteins also showed large changes in frequency by Chi Square (χ2 > 100, p < 0.0001) in the breast cancer samples such as CPEB1, LTBP4, HIF-1A, IGHE, RAB44, NEFM, C19orf82, SLC35B1, 1D12A, C8orf34, HIF1A, OCLN, EYA1, HLA-DRB1, LARS, PTPDC1, WWC1, ZNF562, PTMA, MGAT1, NDUFA1, NOGOC, OR1E1, OR1E2, CFI, HSA12, GCSH, ELTD1, TBX15, NR2C2, FLJ00045, PDLIM1, GALNT9, ASH2L, PPFIBP1, LRRC4B, SLCO3A1, BHMT2, CS, FAM188B2, LGALS7, SAT2, SFRS8, SLC22A12, WNT9B, SLC2A4, ZNF101, WT1, CCDC47, ERLIN1, SPFH1, EID2, THOC1, DDX47, MREG, PTPRE, EMILIN1, DKFZp779G1236 and MAP3K8 among others. The protein gene symbols with large Chi Square values were significantly enriched in proteins that showed a complex set of previously established functional and structural relationships by STRING analysis. An increase in mean precursor intensity of peptides was observed for QSER1 as well as SLC35B1, IQCJ-SCHIP1, MREG, BHMT2, LGALS7, THOC1, ANXA4, DHDDS, SAT2, PTMA and FYCO1 among others. In contrast, the QSER1 peptide QPKVKAEPPPK was apparently specific to ovarian cancer. Conclusion There was striking agreement between the breast cancer plasma peptides and proteins discovered by LC-ESI-MS/MS with previous biomarkers from tumors, cells lines or body fluids by genetic or biochemical methods. The results indicate that variation in plasma peptides from breast cancer versus ovarian cancer may be directly discovered by LC-ESI-MS/MS that will be a powerful tool for clinical research. It may be possible to use a battery of sensitive and robust linear quadrupole ion traps for random and independent sampling of plasma from a multisite clinical trial.

Abstract
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) is the most common and widely known as serious complication of pregnancy. As this syndrome is a major leading cause of maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity/mortality worldwide, many studies have sought to identify candidate molecules as potential disease biomarkers (DBMs) for use in clinical examinations. Accumulating evidence over the past 2 decades that the many proteolytic peptides appear in human humoral fluids, including peripheral blood, in association with an individual's health condition. This review provides the potential utility of peptidomic analysis for monitoring for pathophysiological status in HDP, and presents an overview of current status of peptide quantification technology. Especially, the technical limitations of the methods used for DBM discovery in the blood are discussed.

Abstract
Background It may be possible to discover new diagnostic or therapeutic peptides or proteins from blood plasma using LC–ESI–MS/MS to identify, with a linear quadrupole ion trap to identify, quantify and compare the statistical distributions of peptides cleaved ex vivo from plasma samples from different clinical populations. Methods A systematic method for the organic fractionation of plasma peptides was applied to identify and quantify the endogenous tryptic peptides from human plasma from multiple institutions by C18 HPLC followed nano electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometry (LC–ESI–MS/MS) with a linear quadrupole ion trap. The endogenous tryptic peptides, or tryptic phospho peptides (i.e. without exogenous digestion), were extracted in a mixture of organic solvent and water, dried and collected by preparative C18. The tryptic peptides from 6 institutions with 12 different disease and normal EDTA plasma populations, alongside ice cold controls for pre-analytical variation, were characterized by mass spectrometry. Each patient plasma was precipitated in 90% acetonitrile and the endogenous tryptic peptides extracted by a stepwise gradient of increasing water and then formic acid resulting in 10 sub-fractions. The fractionated peptides were manually collected over preparative C18 and injected for 1508 LC–ESI–MS/MS experiments analyzed in SQL Server R. Results Peptides that were cleaved in human plasma by a tryptic activity ex vivo provided convenient and sensitive access to most human proteins in plasma that show differences in the frequency or intensity of proteins observed across populations that may have clinical significance. Combination of step wise organic extraction of 200 μL of plasma with nano electrospray resulted in the confident identification and quantification ~ 14,000 gene symbols by X!TANDEM that is the largest number of blood proteins identified to date and shows that you can monitor the ex vivo proteolysis of most human proteins, including interleukins, from blood. A total of 15,968,550 MS/MS spectra ≥ E4 intensity counts were correlated by the SEQUEST and X!TANDEM algorithms to a federated library of 157,478 protein sequences that were filtered for best charge state (2+ or 3+) and peptide sequence in SQL Server resulting in 1,916,672 distinct best-fit peptide correlations for analysis with the R statistical system. SEQUEST identified some 140,054 protein accessions, or some ~ 26,000 gene symbols, proteins or loci, with at least 5 independent correlations. The X!TANDEM algorithm made at least 5 best fit correlations to more than 14,000 protein gene symbols with p-values and FDR corrected q-values of ~ 0.001 or less. Log10 peptide intensity values showed a Gaussian distribution from E8 to E4 arbitrary counts by quantile plot, and significant variation in average precursor intensity across the disease and controls treatments by ANOVA with means compared by the Tukey–Kramer test. STRING analysis of the top 2000 gene symbols showed a tight association of cellular proteins that were apparently present in the plasma as protein complexes with related cellular components, molecular functions and biological processes. Conclusions The random and independent sampling of pre-fractionated blood peptides by LC-ESI-MS/MS with SQL Server-R analysis revealed the largest plasma proteome to date and was a practical method to quantify and compare the frequency or log10 intensity of individual proteins cleaved ex vivo across populations of plasma samples from multiple clinical locations to discover treatment-specific variation using classical statistics suitable for clinical science. It was possible to identify and quantify nearly all human proteins from EDTA plasma and compare the results of thousands of LC–ESI–MS/MS experiments from multiple clinical populations using standard database methods in SQL Server and classical statistical strategies in the R data analysis system.

Abstract
The role that biomaterials play in the clinical treatment of damaged organs and tissues is changing. While biomaterials used in permanent medical devices were required to passively take over the function of a damaged tissue in the long term, current biomaterials are expected to trigger and harness the self-regenerative potential of the body in situ and then to degrade, the foundation of regenerative medicine. To meet these different requirements, it is imperative to fully understand the interactions biomaterials have with biological systems, in space and in time. This knowledge will lead to a better understanding of the regenerative capabilities of biomaterials aiding their design with improved functionalities (e.g. biocompatibility, bioactivity). Proteins play a pivotal role in the interaction between biomaterials and cells or tissues. Protein adsorption on the material surface is the very first event of this interaction, which is determinant for the subsequent processes of cell growth, differentiation, and extracellular matrix formation. Against this background, the aim of the current review is to provide insight in the current knowledge of the role of proteins in cell-biomaterial and tissue-biomaterial interactions. In particular, the focus is on proteomics studies, mainly using mass spectrometry, and the knowledge they have generated on protein adsorption of biomaterials, protein production by cells cultured on materials, safety and efficacy of new materials based on nanoparticles and the analysis of extracellular matrices and extracellular matrix-derived products. In the outlook, the potential and limitations of this approach are discussed and mass spectrometry imaging is presented as a powerful technique that complements existing mass spectrometry techniques by providing spatial molecular information about the material-biological system interactions.

Abstract
The success and the quality of hemodialysis therapy are mainly related to both clearance and biocompatibility properties of the artificial membrane packed in the hemodialyzer. Performance of a membrane is strongly influenced by its interaction with the plasma protein repertoire during the extracorporeal procedure. Recognition that a number of medium-high molecular weight solutes, including proteins and protein-bound molecules, are potentially toxic has prompted the development of more permeable membranes. Such membrane engineering, however, may cause loss of vital proteins, with membrane removal being nonspecific. In addition, plasma proteins can be adsorbed onto the membrane surface upon blood contact during dialysis. Adsorption can contribute to the removal of toxic compounds and governs the biocompatibility of a membrane, since surface-adsorbed proteins may trigger a variety of biologic blood pathways with pathophysiologic consequences. Over the last years, use of proteomic approaches has allowed polypeptide spectrum involved in the process of hemodialysis, a key issue previously hampered by lack of suitable technology, to be assessed in an unbiased manner and in its full complexity. Proteomics has been successfully applied to identify and quantify proteins in complex mixtures such as dialysis outflow fluid and fluid desorbed from dialysis membrane containing adsorbed proteins. The identified proteins can also be characterized by their involvement in metabolic and signaling pathways, molecular networks, and biologic processes through application of bioinformatics tools. Proteomics may thus provide an actual functional definition as to the effect of a membrane material on plasma proteins during hemodialysis. Here, we review the results of proteomic studies on the performance of hemodialysis membranes, as evaluated in terms of solute removal efficiency and blood-membrane interactions. The evidence collected indicates that the information provided by proteomic investigations yields improved molecular and functional knowledge and may lead to the development of more efficient membranes for the potential benefit of the patient.

Abstract
Immune cells play vital roles in regulating bone dynamics. Successful bone regeneration requires a favourable osteo-immune environment. The high plasticity and diversity of immune cells make it possible to manipulate the osteo-immune response of immune cells, thus modulating the osteoimmune environment and regulating bone regeneration. With the advancement in nanotechnology, nanotopographies with different controlled surface properties can be fabricated. On tuning the surface properties, the osteo-immune response can be precisely modulated. This highly tunable characteristic and immunomodulatory effects make nanotopography a promising strategy to precisely manipulate osteoimmunomdulation for bone tissue engineering applications. This review first summarises the effects of the immune response during bone healing to show the importance of regulating the immune response for the bone response. The plasticity of immune cells is then reviewed to provide rationales for manipulation of the osteoimmune response. Subsequently, we highlight the current types of nanotopographies applied in bone biomaterials and their fabrication techniques, and explain how these nanotopographies modulate the immune response and the possible underlying mechanisms. The effects of immune cells on nanotopography-mediated osteogenesis are emphasized, and we propose the concept of "nano-osteoimmunomodulation" to provide a valuable strategy for the development of nanotopographies with osteoimmunomodulatory properties that can precisely regulate bone dynamics.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare and critically evaluate a variety of techniques to measure the quantity and biological activity of protein sorption to contact lenses over short time periods. METHODS A literature review was undertaken investigating the major techniques to measure protein sorption to soft contact lens materials, with specific reference to measuring protein directly on lenses using in situ, ex situ, protein structural, and biological activity techniques. RESULTS The use of in situ techniques to measure protein quantity provides excellent sensitivity, but many are not directly applicable to contact lenses. Many ex situ techniques struggle to measure all sorbed proteins, and these measurements can have significant signal interference from the lens materials themselves. Techniques measuring the secondary and tertiary structures of sorbed proteins have exhibited only limited success. CONCLUSIONS There are a wide variety of techniques to measure both the amount of protein and the biological activity of protein sorbed to soft contact lens materials. To measure the mass of protein sorbed to soft contact lenses (not just thin films) over short time periods, the method of choice should be I radiolabeling. This technique is sensitive enough to measure small amounts of deposited protein, provided steps are taken to limit and measure any interaction of the iodine tracer with the materials. To measure the protein activity over short time periods, the method of choice should be to measure the biological function of sorbed proteins. This may require new methods or adaptations of existing ones.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During haemodialysis procedure, the contact of blood with the membrane material contained in the hemodialyser results in protein deposition and adsorption, and surface-adsorbed proteins may trigger a variety of biological pathways with potential pathophysiologic consequences. The present work was undertaken to examine for protein adsorption capacity of two membranes used for clinical haemodialysis, namely cellulose triacetate (a derivatized cellulosic membrane) and the synthetic polymer polysulfone-based helixone. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a prospective cross-over study in chronic haemodialysis patients, routinely treated with a cellulose triacetate dialyser (n=3) or with a helixone dialyser (n=3). Dialysers from each patient were obtained after dialysis session, and flushed with a litre of saline to remove residual blood. Adsorbed proteins were then eluted by a strong chaotropic buffer. Patients were next switched to the other membrane dialyser for four weeks, at the end of this period protein adsorption being evaluated again. After silver staining, expression profile protein of the two groups was analyzed by 2-DE gels, analyzed and identified by Peptide Mass-finger printing and MALDI-TOF-MS/MS sequency. Moreover nanoLC-MS/MS shotgun profiling was pursued using a semi-quantitative label free approach by emPAI data analysis. RESULTS A total of 54 differentially expressed proteins were identified: 22 proteins more concentrated in helixone membrane (predominantly low abundant plasma proteins) and 32 in cellulose triacetate (most represented by high abundant plasma proteins). The difference proved to be related to membrane material and not to patient's characteristics. DISCUSSION Proteomic techniques represent a useful approach for the investigation of proteins surface-adsorbed onto a haemodialysis membrane, and can also be applied for critical assessment to compare efficiencies of different dialyser membrane materials in the adsorption of plasma proteins.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine is a multidisciplinary field utilizing the potential of stem cells and the regenerative capability of the body to restore, maintain, or enhance tissue and organ functions. Stem cells are unspecialized cells that can self-renew but also differentiate into several somatic cells when subjected the appropriate environmental cues. The ability to reliably direct stem cell fate would provide tremendous potential for basic research and clinical therapies. Proper tissue function and regeneration rely on the spatial and temporal control of biophysical and biochemical cues, including soluble molecules, cell-cell contacts, cell-extracellular matrix contacts, and physical forces. The mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. This review focuses on the stem cell-extracellular matrix interactions by summarizing the observations of the effects of material variables (such as overall architecture, surface topography, charge, ζ-potential, surface energy, and elastic modulus) on the stem cell fate. It also deals with the mechanisms underlying the effects of these extrinsic, material variables. Insight in the environmental interactions of the stem cells is crucial for the development of new material-based approaches for cell culture experiments and future experimental and clinical regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
There is urgent need for biomarkers that provide early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) as well as discrimination of autoimmune pancreatitis, as current clinical approaches are not suitably accurate for precise diagnosis. We used mass spectrometry to analyze protein profiles of more than 300 plasma specimens obtained from PDAC, noncancerous pancreatic diseases including autoimmune pancreatitis patients and healthy subjects. We obtained 1063 proteomic signals from 160 plasma samples in the training cohort. A proteomic signature consisting of 7 mass spectrometry signals was used for construction of a proteomic model for detection of PDAC patients. Using the test cohort, we confirmed that this proteomic model had discrimination power equal to that observed with the training cohort. The overall sensitivity and specificity for detection of cancer patients were 82.6% and 90.9%, respectively. Notably, 62.5% of the stage I and II cases were detected by our proteomic model. We also found that 100% of autoimmune pancreatitis patients were correctly assigned as noncancerous individuals. In the present paper, we developed a proteomic model that was shown able to detect early-stage PDAC patients. In addition, our model appeared capable of discriminating patients with autoimmune pancreatitis from those with PDAC.

Abstract
Tissue engineering is an emerging field of research which combines the use of cell-seeded biomaterials both in vitro and/or in vivo with the aim of promoting new tissue formation or regeneration. In this context, how cells colonize and interact with the biomaterial is critical in order to get a functional tissue engineering product. Cell-biomaterial interaction is referred to here as the phenomenon involved in adherent cells attachment to the biomaterial surface, and their related cell functions such as growth, differentiation, migration or apoptosis. This process is inherently complex in nature involving many physico-chemical events which take place at different scales ranging from molecular to cell body (organelle) levels. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that the mechanical environment at the cell-biomaterial location may play an important role in the subsequent cell function, which remains to be elucidated. In this paper, the state-of-the-art research in the physics and mechanics of cell-biomaterial interaction is reviewed with an emphasis on focal adhesions. The paper is focused on the different models developed at different scales available to simulate certain features of cell-biomaterial interaction. A proper understanding of cell-biomaterial interaction, as well as the development of predictive models in this sense, may add some light in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine fields.

Abstract
It is difficult to convey the accelerating rate and growing importance of mass spectrometry applications to human blood proteins and peptides. Mass spectrometry can rapidly detect and identify the ionizable peptides from the proteins in a simple mixture and reveal many of their post-translational modifications. However, blood is a complex mixture that may contain many proteins first expressed in cells and tissues. The complete analysis of blood proteins is a daunting task that will rely on a wide range of disciplines from physics, chemistry, biochemistry, genetics, electromagnetic instrumentation, mathematics and computation. Therefore the comprehensive discovery and analysis of blood proteins will rank among the great technical challenges and require the cumulative sum of many of mankind's scientific achievements together. A variety of methods have been used to fractionate, analyze and identify proteins from blood, each yielding a small piece of the whole and throwing the great size of the task into sharp relief. The approaches attempted to date clearly indicate that enumerating the proteins and peptides of blood can be accomplished. There is no doubt that the mass spectrometry of blood will be crucial to the discovery and analysis of proteins, enzyme activities, and post-translational processes that underlay the mechanisms of disease. At present both discovery and quantification of proteins from blood are commonly reaching sensitivities of ∼1 ng/mL.

As materials technology and the field of tissue engineering advance, the role of cellular adhesive mechanisms, in particular, interactions with implantable devices, becomes more relevant in both research and clinical practice. A key tenet of medical device technology is to use the exquisite ability of biological systems to respond to the material surface or chemical stimuli in order to help to develop next-generation biomaterials. The focus of this review is on recent studies and developments concerning focal adhesion formation in osteoneogenesis, with an emphasis on the influence of synthetic constructs on integrin-mediated cellular adhesion and function.

Abstract
The brain is unquestionably the most fascinating organ, and the hippocampus is crucial in memory storage and retrieval and plays an important role in stress response. In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), the seizure origin typically involves the hippocampal formation. Despite tremendous progress, current knowledge falls short of being able to explain its function. An emerging approach toward an improved understanding of the complex molecular mechanisms that underlie functions of the brain and hippocampus is neuroproteomics. Mass spectrometry has been widely used to analyze biological samples, and has evolved into an indispensable tool for proteomics research. In this review, we present a general overview of the application of mass spectrometry in proteomics, summarize neuroproteomics and systems biology-based discovery of protein biomarkers for epilepsy, discuss the methodology needed to explore the epileptic hippocampus proteome, and also focus on applications of ingenuity pathway analysis (IPA) in disease research. This neuroproteomics survey presents a framework for large-scale protein research in epilepsy that can be applied for immediate epileptic biomarker discovery and the far-reaching systems biology understanding of the protein regulatory networks. Ultimately, knowledge attained through neuroproteomics could lead to clinical diagnostics and therapeutics to lessen the burden of epilepsy on society.

Abstract
Many peptides of biological or medicinal importance may be derived from proteolytic actions and are found at low concentrations in human blood fluids. Endogenous polypeptides from human serum were precipitated in acetonitrile and the precipitate was then selectively extracted with water modified by organic solvents and collected over C18 resin. Extraction of serum with C18 alone, and the acetonitrile supernatant or ultrafiltration collected over C18, served as controls. The samples were analyzed by SDS-PAGE, or C18 high pressure liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization using a Paul ion trap and Qq-TOF. Spectra were correlated without specifying an enzyme using the X!TANDEM or the Paragon algorithms. Multiple endogenous peptides from plasminogen, coagulation factors, collagens, serum amyloid, receptors, zinc finger/bromo peptide proteins, ryanodine receptor, calmodulin binding activator, erythroid differentiation factor, testes cancer antigen, extracellular matrix protein, myeloid/lymphoid leukemia 2 and many low abundance proteins were correlated by X!TANDEM with protein expect values of approximately E-16 or less. Proteins with binding sites for nucleic acids, phosphoinositides, and other cellular locations were also observed using the Qq-TOF and Paragon algorithm. Proteins with low expectation scores and overlapping peptides sequences were observed. The existence of these proteins in serum has been confirmed by tryptic digestion and LC-ESI-MS/MS. The presence of plasminogen, serum amyloid and zinc finger RNA binding proteins were confirmed by Western blot. There was agreement on the detection of endogenous peptides from low abundance proteins associated with the biology of cancer from the examination of the blood peptides by ion trap and Qq-TOF, tryptic digests of blood proteins, and Western blot.

Abstract
UNLABELLED As materials technology and the field of biomedical engineering advances, the role of cellular mechanisms, in particular adhesive interactions with implantable devices, becomes more relevant in both research and clinical practice. A key tenet of medical device design has evolved from the exquisite ability of biological systems to respond to topographical features or chemical stimuli, a process that has led to the development of next-generation biomaterials for a wide variety of clinical disorders. In vitro studies have identified nanoscale features as potent modulators of cellular behavior through the onset of focal adhesion formation. The focus of this review is on the recent developments concerning the role of nanoscale structures on integrin-mediated adhesion and cellular function with an emphasis on the generation of medical constructs with regenerative applications. FROM THE CLINICAL EDITOR In this review, recent developments related to the role of nanoscale structures on integrin-mediated adhesion and cellular function is discussed, with an emphasis on regenerative applications.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether differences in lysozyme deposition and/or activity exist on worn etafilcon and balafilcon contact lenses following care with a polyquaternium-based system (PQ) or a polyhexanide-based system (PHMB). METHODS Following acid-based deposit extraction, lysozyme concentration was determined via Western blotting and lysozyme activity was determined by a micrococcyl assay. RESULTS Lysozyme deposition on etafilcon lenses was greater following disinfection with the PHMB-based system (1551 +/- 371 micro g/lens vs 935 +/- 271 micro g/lens; p < 0.001). Deposition on balafilcon lenses was not influenced by the care regimen (10 +/- 3.5 micro g/lens vs 10 +/- 5 micro g/lens; p = 0.89). For both materials, the percentage of denatured lysozyme was greater when they were exposed to the PHMB-based system (28 vs 21%; p = 0.05 (etafilcon) and 57 vs 40%; p = 0.04 (balafilcon)). CONCLUSIONS The quantity and conformation of lysozyme deposited on hydrogel contact lens materials is significantly influenced by both lens material and care regimen.

Abstract
We have studied the influence of oxygen radio frequency glow discharge (RfGD) on the surface and bulk properties of poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PDLLA) and the effect of this surface modification on both protein adsorption and bone cell behavior. PDLLA films were characterized before and after plasma surface modification by water contact angle, surface energy, and adhesion tension of water as well as by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray electron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) spectroscopy. RfGD-films showed an increase in hydrophilicity and surface energy when compared with untreated films. Surface morphological changes were observed by SEM. Chemical analysis indicated significant differences in both atomic percentages and oxygen functional group. Protein adsorption was evaluated by combining solute depletion and spectroscopic techniques. Bovine serum albumin (BSA), fibronectin (FN), vitronectin (VN), and fetal bovine serum (FBS) were used in this study. RfGD-treated surfaces adsorbed more BSA and FN from single specie solutions than FBS that is a more complex, multi-specie solution. MG63 osteoblast-like cells and primary cultures of fetal rat calvarial (FRC) cells were used to assess both the effect of RfGD treatment and protein adsorption on cell attachment and proliferation. In the absence of preadsorbed proteins, cells could not distinguish between treated and untreated surfaces, with the exception of MG63 cells cultured for longer periods of time. In contrast, the adsorption of proteins increased the cells' preference for treated surfaces, thus indicating a crucial role for adsorbed proteins in mediating the response of osteogenic cells to the RfGD-treated PDLLA surface.

Abstract
Current understanding of the mechanisms involved in osseointegration following implantation of a biomaterial has led to adhesion quantification being implemented as an assay of cytocompatibility. Such measurement can be hindered by intra-sample variation owing to morphological changes associated with the cell cycle. Here we report on a new scanning electron microscopical method for the simultaneous immunogold labelling of cellular focal adhesions and S-phase nuclei identified by BrdU incorporation. Prior to labelling, cellular membranes are removed by tritonization and antigens of non-interest blocked by serum incubation. Adhesion plaque-associated vinculin and S-phase nuclei were both separately labelled with a 1.4 nm gold colloid and visualized by subsequent colloid enhancement via silver deposition. This study is specifically concerned with the effects microgroove topographies have on adhesion formation in S-phase osteoblasts. By combining backscattered electron (BSE) imaging with secondary electron (SE) imaging it was possible to visualize S-phase nuclei and the immunogold-labelled adhesion sites in one energy 'plane' and the underlying nanotopography in another. Osteoblast adhesion to these nanotopographies was ascertained by quantification of adhesion complex formation.

Abstract
We have developed an automated procedure for aligning peaks in multiple TOF spectra that eliminates common timing errors and small variations in spectrometer output. Our method incorporates high-resolution peak detection, re-binning, and robust linear data fitting in the time domain. This procedure aligns label-free (uncalibrated) peaks to minimize the variation in each peak's location from one spectrum to the next, while maintaining a high number of degrees of freedom. We apply our method to replicate pooled-serum spectra from multiple laboratories and increase peak precision (t/sigma(t)) to values limited only by small random errors (with sigma(t) less than one time count in 89 out of 91 instances, 13 peaks in seven datasets). The resulting high precision allowed for an order of magnitude improvement in peak m/z reproducibility. We show that the CV for m/z is 0.01% (100 ppm) for 12 out of the 13 peaks that were observed in all datasets between 2995 and 9297 Da.

Abstract
Porous HA/TCP bioceramics were immersed in pure bovine serum to observe the growth and
formation of apatite. HRTEM, FTIR, and SEM coupled with EDS were used for the characterization of
immersed samples. SEM results showed that some beamed crystals formed on the surface of ceramics
granules, and with postponement of immersion time, crystals extended and became bigger, strap-like
crystals became sheet-like crystals. HRTEM observations indicated that new-formed crystals developed
along axes direction according to parallel layers. IR spectrum showed CO3
2- characteristic peaks existed
besides O-P-O and OH- characteristic peaks. EDS results showed that calcium and phosphor ratio was
1.95 (mol ratio). The results indicated that bovine serums were advantaged to bone-like apatite formation.

Abstract
Blood peptides can be concentrated, extracted, and analyzed with strong signal-to-noise ratios by precipitation in organic solvents followed by extraction in water. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and electrospray ionization (ESI) hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight (Qq-TOF) were used to analyze the precipitated and extracted endogenous peptides from fetal calf serum. C18 solid-phase extraction with or without prior precipitation in ammonium sulfate, size exclusion chromatography, dealbuminization, dye affinity chromatography, ultrafiltration, and differential precipitation in organic solvents were compared. Hundreds of different ions could be observed by MALDI in the various fractions. It appeared that some peptides were freely dissolved and that not all peptides in blood were obliged to remain bound to albumin or other high-molecular-mass proteins. Mass spectra with high signal-to-noise ratios were obtained from polypeptides precipitated with organic solvents followed by extraction of the peptides from the pellet with water. The peptides extracted from organic precipitates were analyzed by nano liquid chromatography (LC)-ESI-Qq-TOF. In addition to many commonly abundant serum proteins, apparent low-abundance peptides associated with cancer biology from proteins such as insulin-like growth factor II, thymosin beta4 and beta9, plasminogen, coagulation factors, and extracellular matrix protein 1 were observed.

Abstract
Current understanding of the mechanisms involved in ossesoinegration following implantation of a biomaterial has led to an emphasis being placed on the modification of material topography to control interface reactions. Recent studies have inferred nanoscale topography as an important mediator of cell adhesion and differentiation. Biomimetic strategies in orthopaedic research aim to exploit these influences to regulate cellular adhesion and subsequent bony tissue formation. Here experimental topographies of nanoscale pits demonstrating varying order have been fabricated by electron-beam lithography in (poly)carbonate. Osteoblast adhesion to these nanotopographies was ascertained by quantification of the relation between adhesion complex formation and total cell area. This study is specifically concerned with the effects these nanotopographies have on adhesion formation in S-phase osteoblasts as identified by BrdU incorporation. Nanopits were found to reduce cellular spreading and adhesion formation.

Abstract
The superelastic, shape memory alloy nitinol ( approximately 50% nickel and approximately 50% titanium) is an important medical device material used for stent applications. However, the role specific surfaces properties have in protein adsorption remain controversial. In this study the effects of nitinol wire surface roughness, hydrophobicity and elemental composition upon albumin adsorption are investigated. In particular, we demonstrate that the technique of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry in the so-called surface mode can be used for the direct detection of albumin on the wire surfaces. In addition, albumin adsorbing to the wires was determined by using (125)I-labelled albumin. Albumin was detected on all wire samples. Surface roughness and hydrophobicity appeared to have no effect on albumin adsorption. There was however a clear correlation between the surface nickel and oxygen concentration and the amount of albumin adsorbed. Samples with higher levels of nickel and less oxygen in the surface oxide layer of the wires showed increased albumin adsorption, which could lead to improved biocompatibility. However, nickel is a toxic substance and can cause many adverse effects on humans, and thus nitinol with a slightly enriched surface nickel concentration that does not exhibit nickel release may have potential as a medical device material.

Abstract
Monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) are key inflammatory cells and are central to the foreign body response to implant materials. MDM have been shown to exhibit changes in actin cytoskeleton, multinucleation, cell size, and function in response to small alterations in polycarbonate-urethane (PCNU) surface chemistry. Although PCNU chemistry has an influence on de novo protein synthesis, no assessments of the protein expression profiles of MDM have yet been reported. The rapid emerging field of expression proteomics facilitates the study of changes in cellular protein profiles in response to their microenvironment. The current study applied proteomic techniques, 2-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) combined with MALDI-ToF (matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight) mass spectrometry, to determine differences in MDM protein expression influenced by PCNU. Results indicated that MDM responded to material chemistry by modulation of structural proteins (i.e. actin, vimentin, and tubulin). Additionally, intracellular protein modulation which requires proteins responsible for trafficking (i.e. chaperone proteins) and protein structure modification (i.e. bond rearrangement and protein folding) were also altered. This study demonstrated for the first time that a proteomics approach was able to detect protein expression profile changes in MDM cultured on different material surfaces, forming the basis for utilizing further quantitative proteomics techniques that could assist in elucidation of the mechanisms involved in MDM-material interaction.

Abstract
Protein-adsorptive properties are a key feature of membranes used for hemodialysis treatment. Protein adsorption is vital to the biocompatibility of a membrane material and influences membrane's performance. The object of the present study is to investigate membrane biocompatibility by correlating the adsorbed proteome repertoire with structural feature of the membrane surfaces. Minidialyzers of identical structural characteristics composed of either cellulose diacetate or ethylenevinyl alcohol materials were employed to develop an ex vivo apparatus to investigate protein adsorption. Adsorbed proteins were eluted by a strong chaotropic buffer condition and investigated by 2-DE coupled to both MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS) mass fingerprinting and fragmentation analysis on a nanoLC-MS/MS hybrid instrument. Membrane surface characterization included evaluation of roughness (atomic force microscopy), elemental chemical composition (X-ray-photoelectron-spectroscopy), and hydrophilicity (pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance). The present study identifies a number of different proteins as common or characteristic of filter material interaction, showing that proteomic techniques are a promising approach for the investigation of proteins surface-adsorbed onto hemodialysis membrane. Proteomic analysis enables the characterization of protein layers of unknown composition.

Abstract
With the growing interest in clinical interventions that involve medical devices, the role for new biomaterials in modern medicine is currently expanding at a phenomenal rate. Failure of most implant materials stems from an inability to predict and control biological phenomena, such as protein adsorption and cell interaction, resulting in an inappropriate host response to the materials. Contemporary advances in biological investigation are starting to shift focus in the biomaterials field, in particular with the advent of high-throughput methodologies for gene and protein expression profiling. Here, we examine the role that emerging transcriptomic and proteomic technologies could play in relation to biomaterial development and usage. Moreover, a number of studies are highlighted which have utilized such approaches in order to try to create a deeper understanding of cell-biomaterial interactions and, hence, improve our ability to predict and control the biocompatibility of new materials.

Abstract
This review describes the use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and continues coverage of the field from the previous review published in 1999 (D. J. Harvey, Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry of carbohydrates, 1999, Mass Spectrom Rev, 18:349-451) for the period 1999-2000. As MALDI mass spectrometry is acquiring the status of a mature technique in this field, there has been a greater emphasis on applications rather than to method development as opposed to the previous review. The present review covers applications to plant-derived carbohydrates, N- and O-linked glycans from glycoproteins, glycated proteins, mucins, glycosaminoglycans, bacterial glycolipids, glycosphingolipids, glycoglycerolipids and related compounds, and glycosides. Applications of MALDI mass spectrometry to the study of enzymes acting on carbohydrates (glycosyltransferases and glycosidases) and to the synthesis of carbohydrates, are also covered.

Abstract
As potential applications of nanotechnology and nanoparticles increase, so too does the likelihood of human exposure to nanoparticles. Because of their small size, nanoparticles are easily taken up into cells (by receptor-mediated endocytosis), whereupon they have essentially free access to all cellular compartments. Similarly to macroscopic biomaterial surfaces (that is, implants), nanoparticles become coated with a layer of adsorbed proteins immediately upon contact with physiological solutions (unless special efforts are taken to prevent this). The process of adsorption often results in conformational changes of the adsorbed protein, which may be affected by the larger curvature of nanoparticles compared with implant surfaces. Protein adsorption may result in the exposure at the surface of amino acid residues that are normally buried in the core of the native protein, which are recognized by the cells as "cryptic epitopes." These cryptic epitopes may trigger inappropriate cellular signaling events (as opposed to being rejected by the cells as foreign bodies). However, identification of such surface-exposed epitopes is nontrivial, and the molecular nature of the adsorbed proteins should be investigated using biological and physical science methods in parallel with systems biology studies of the induced alterations in cell signaling.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometric (MALDI-TOF MS) analysis of proteins in salt-containing solution was performed for the first time using porous anodic alumina (PAA) membrane as sample support. The resulting spectral quality of proteins under standard sample preparation conditions was superior to that of normal metal sample stages. Analysis of phosphate-doped protein solutions indicated that porous anodic alumina membranes as a target yielded better results than a metallic target for salt-containing solutions. Because of the biocompatibility of the PAA, proteins can be adsorbed on the PAA and thus a washing process can be introduced to remove the salts from the PAA target before MS analysis. This desalting step significantly enhanced spectral quality, and better signal-to-noise ratios were obtained. The present technique is promising for proteomics research.

Abstract
A quantitative determination of peptides incorporated into poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolide) microspheres by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was accomplished in a single step without pretreatment for extracting the peptide from the microsphere. The conventional extraction methods often underestimate the actual amount of peptide because of incomplete extraction from the microspheres or loss during the procedures. In this study, the microspheres dissolved in acetonitrile containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid were mixed with matrix solution containing the internal standard, and the peptide content was directly determined by MALDI-TOF MS. The drug content values determined by MALDI-TOF MS in both the leuprolide- and salmon calcitonin-incorporated microspheres were closer to the theoretical contents than those determined by the conventional extraction method. This method using MALDI-TOF MS could be a good alternative to time-consuming and less-accurate conventional methods.

Abstract
Binary aqueous solutions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and beta-lactoglobulin (bLG) were subject to flux-stepping and constant flux ultrafiltration to identify the apparent critical flux and to study the mechanisms and factors affecting fouling when the membrane is permeable to one protein component. Membranes from these filtration experiments were analyzed using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) to locate and quantify levels of fouling below and above the apparent critical flux. Hydrophilic (PLTK) regenerated cellulose and hydrophobic (PBTK) polysulfone asymmetric membranes were used, both of 30 kDa nominal molecular weight cut-off. For the hydrophilic PLTK membrane, protein deposition was shown to depend on electrostatic forces, exhibiting little or no fouling when the proteins had the same charge sign as that of the membrane. This was found to apply for both dilute equal mass-per-unit-volume and equimolar binary mixtures. For the PBTK membrane, hydrophobic protein-membrane attractive forces were sufficiently strong to cause deposition of bLG even in the presence of repulsive electrostatic forces. For the PBTK membrane deposition exceeded monolayer coverage below and above apparent critical flux conditions but for the PLTK membrane this generally occurred when the apparent critical flux was exceeded. MALDI-MS was shown to be a facile direct analytical technique for individually quantifying adsorbed proteins on membrane surfaces at levels as low as 50 fmol/mm(2). The high levels of compound specificity inherent to mass spectrometry make this approach especially suited to the quantification of individual components in mixed deposits. In this study, MALDI-MS was found to be successful in identifying and quantifying the protein species responsible for fouling.

Abstract
Electrophoretic and chromatographic sample preparations were compared and together detected the presence of some 600 types of protein products in human serum. Proteins from crude serum preseparated by ionic electrophoresis, chromatography, or a combination of both were analyzed. Proteins were digested with trypsin or chymotrypsin. Naturally occurring peptides were also collected by reversed-phase chromatography. The resulting peptides were identified by tandem mass spectrometry. The peptides were either desorbed by a laser from a metal chip into a quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer or ionized as an electro-spray from reversed-phase chromatography via a metal needle under voltage into an ion-trap mass spectrometer. All of the commonly known proteins associated with serum were detected, and the two mass spectrometers agreed on the identity of abundant serum proteins. Preseparation of serum proteins prior to digestion markedly enhanced the capacity to detect un-common proteins from blood. Electrophoretic- and chromatography-based experiments were found to be complementary. Many novel cellular proteins not previously associated with serum were recorded.
