Abstract
Chemical proteomics, which involves studying the covalent modifications of proteins by small molecules, has significantly contributed to our understanding of protein function and has become an essential tool in drug discovery. Mass spectrometry (MS) is the primary method for identifying and quantifying protein-small molecule adducts. In this review, we discuss various methods for measuring proteomic reactivity using MS and covalent proteomics probes that engage through reactivity-driven and proximity-driven mechanisms. We highlight the applications of these methods and probes in live-cell measurements, drug target identification and validation, and characterizing protein-small molecule interactions. We conclude the review with current developments and future opportunities in the field, providing our perspectives on analytical considerations for MS-based analysis of the proteomic reactivity landscape.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) has become an attractive analytical method in clinical analysis due to its comprehensive advantages of high sensitivity, high specificity and high throughput. Separation techniques coupled MS detection (e.g., LC-MS/MS) have shown unique advantages over immunoassay and have developed as golden criterion for many clinical applications. This review summarizes the characteristics and applications of MS, and emphasizes the high efficiency of MS in clinical research. In addition, this review also put forward further prospects for the future of mass spectrometry technology, including the introduction of miniature MS instruments, point-of-care detection and high-throughput analysis, to achieve better development of MS technology in various fields of clinical application. Moreover, as ambient ionization mass spectrometry (AIMS) requires little or no sample pretreatment and improves the flux of MS, this review also summarizes its potential applications in clinic.

Abstract
Liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry (MS) has been increasingly used in quantitative proteomics studies. Here, we present a fast and sensitive approach for direct peptide identification from DIA data, MSFragger-DIA, which leverages the unmatched speed of the fragment ion indexing-based search engine MSFragger. Different from most existing methods, MSFragger-DIA conducts a database search of the DIA tandem mass (MS/MS) spectra prior to spectral feature detection and peak tracing across the LC dimension. To streamline the analysis of DIA data and enable easy reproducibility, we integrate MSFragger-DIA into the FragPipe computational platform for seamless support of peptide identification and spectral library building from DIA, data-dependent acquisition (DDA), or both data types combined. We compare MSFragger-DIA with other DIA tools, such as DIA-Umpire based workflow in FragPipe, Spectronaut, DIA-NN library-free, and MaxDIA. We demonstrate the fast, sensitive, and accurate performance of MSFragger-DIA across a variety of sample types and data acquisition schemes, including single-cell proteomics, phosphoproteomics, and large-scale tumor proteome profiling studies.

Abstract
Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs) represent ∼75% of RCC cases and account for most RCC-associated deaths. Inter- and intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) results in varying prognosis and treatment outcomes. To obtain the most comprehensive profile of ccRCC, we perform integrative histopathologic, proteogenomic, and metabolomic analyses on 305 ccRCC tumor segments and 166 paired adjacent normal tissues from 213 cases. Combining histologic and molecular profiles reveals ITH in 90% of ccRCCs, with 50% demonstrating immune signature heterogeneity. High tumor grade, along with BAP1 mutation, genome instability, increased hypermethylation, and a specific protein glycosylation signature define a high-risk disease subset, where UCHL1 expression displays prognostic value. Single-nuclei RNA sequencing of the adverse sarcomatoid and rhabdoid phenotypes uncover gene signatures and potential insights into tumor evolution. In vitro cell line studies confirm the potential of inhibiting identified phosphoproteome targets. This study molecularly stratifies aggressive histopathologic subtypes that may inform more effective treatment strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Single-cell proteomic analysis provides valuable insights into cellular heterogeneity allowing the characterization of the cellular microenvironment which is difficult to accomplish in bulk proteomic analysis. Currently, single-cell proteomic studies utilize data-dependent acquisition (DDA) mass spectrometry (MS) coupled with a TMT labelled carrier channel. Due to the extremely imbalanced MS signals among the carrier channel and other TMT reporter ions, the quantification is compromised. Thus, data-independent acquisition (DIA)-MS should be considered as an alternative approach towards single-cell proteomic study since it generates reproducible quantitative data. However, there are limited reports on the optimal workflow for DIA-MS-based single-cell analysis. METHODS We report an optimized DIA workflow for single-cell proteomics using Orbitrap Lumos Tribrid instrument. We utilized a breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231) and induced drug resistant polyaneuploid cancer cells (PACCs) to evaluate our established workflow. RESULTS We found that a short LC gradient was preferable for peptides extracted from single cell level with less than 2 ng sample amount. The total number of co-searching peptide precursors was also critical for protein and peptide identifications at nano- and sub-nano-gram levels. Post-translationally modified peptides could be identified from a nano-gram level of peptides. Using the optimized workflow, up to 1500 protein groups were identified from a single PACC corresponding to 0.2 ng of peptides. Furthermore, about 200 peptides with phosphorylation, acetylation, and ubiquitination were identified from global DIA analysis of 100 cisplatin resistant PACCs (20 ng). Finally, we used this optimized DIA approach to compare the whole proteome of MDA-MB-231 parental cells and induced PACCs at a single-cell level. We found the single-cell level comparison could reflect real protein expression changes and identify the protein copy number. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that the optimized DIA pipeline can serve as a reliable quantitative tool for single-cell as well as sub-nano-gram proteomic analysis.

Coupling suspension trapping-based sample preparation and data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry for sensitive exosomal proteomic analysis. Anal Bioanal Chem 2022; 414:2585-2595. [PMID: 35181835 PMCID: PMC9101639 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-022-03920-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Revised: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
It has been a challenge to analyze minute amounts of proteomic samples in a facile and robust manner. Herein, we developed a quantitative proteomics workflow by integrating suspension trapping (S-Trap)-based sample preparation and label-free data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry and then applied it for the analysis of microgram and even nanogram amounts of exosome samples. S-Trap-based sample preparation outperformed the traditional in-solution digestion-based approach and the commonly used filter-aided sample preparation (FASP)-based approach with regard to the number of proteins and peptides identified. Moreover, S-Trap-based sample preparation coupled with DIA mass spectrometry also showed the highest reproducibility for protein quantification. In addition, this approach allowed for identification and quantification of exosome proteins with low starting amounts (down to 50 ~ 200 ng). Finally, the proposed method was successfully applied to label-free quantification of exosomal proteins extracted from MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells and MCF-10A non-tumorigenic epithelial breast cells. Prospectively, we envision the integrated S-Trap sample preparation coupled with DIA quantification strategy as a promising alternative for highly efficient and sensitive analysis of trace amounts of proteomic samples (e.g., exosomal samples).

Abstract
Omics-based technologies have been largely adopted during this unprecedented global COVID-19 pandemic, allowing the scientific community to perform research on a large scale to understand the pathobiology of the SARS-CoV-2 infection and its replication into human cells. The application of omics techniques has been addressed to every level of application, from the detection of mutations, methods of diagnosis or monitoring, drug target discovery, and vaccine generation, to the basic definition of the pathophysiological processes and the biochemical mechanisms behind the infection and spread of SARS-CoV-2. Thus, the term COVIDomics wants to include those efforts provided by omics-scale investigations with application to the current COVID-19 research. This review summarizes the diverse pieces of knowledge acquired with the application of COVIDomics techniques, with the main focus on proteomics and metabolomics studies, in order to capture a common signature in terms of proteins, metabolites, and pathways dysregulated in COVID-19 disease. Exploring the multiomics perspective and the concurrent data integration may provide new suitable therapeutic solutions to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract
Efficient peptide and protein identifications from data-independent acquisition mass spectrometric (DIA-MS) data typically rely on a project-specific spectral library with a suitable size. Here, we describe subLib, a computational strategy for optimizing the spectral library for a specific DIA data set based on a comprehensive spectral library, requiring the preliminary analysis of the DIA data set. Compared with the pan-human library strategy, subLib achieved a 41.2% increase in peptide precursor identifications and a 35.6% increase in protein group identifications in a test data set of six colorectal tumor samples. We also applied this strategy to 389 carcinoma samples from 15 tumor data sets: up to a 39.2% increase in peptide precursor identifications and a 19.0% increase in protein group identifications were observed. Our strategy for spectral library size optimization thus successfully proved to deepen the proteome coverages of DIA-MS data.

Proteomic characterization of primary and metastatic prostate cancer reveals reduced proteinase activity in aggressive tumors. Sci Rep 2021; 11:18936. [PMID: 34556748 PMCID: PMC8460832 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-98410-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2021] [Accepted: 09/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a heterogeneous group of tumors with variable clinical courses. In order to improve patient outcomes, it is critical to clinically separate aggressive PCa (AG) from non-aggressive PCa (NAG). Although recent genomic studies have identified a spectrum of molecular abnormalities associated with aggressive PCa, it is still challenging to separate AG from NAG. To better understand the functional consequences of PCa progression and the unique features of the AG subtype, we studied the proteomic signatures of primary AG, NAG and metastatic PCa. 39 PCa and 10 benign prostate controls in a discovery cohort and 57 PCa in a validation cohort were analyzed using a data-independent acquisition (DIA) SWATH-MS platform. Proteins with the highest variances (top 500 proteins) were annotated for the pathway enrichment analysis. Functional analysis of differentially expressed proteins in NAG and AG was performed. Data was further validated using a validation cohort; and was also compared with a TCGA mRNA expression dataset and confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using PCa tissue microarray (TMA). 4,415 proteins were identified in the tumor and benign control tissues, including 158 up-regulated and 116 down-regulated proteins in AG tumors. A functional analysis of tumor-associated proteins revealed reduced expressions of several proteinases, including dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4), carboxypeptidase E (CPE) and prostate specific antigen (KLK3) in AG and metastatic PCa. A targeted analysis further identified that the reduced expression of DPP4 was associated with the accumulation of DPP4 substrates and the reduced ratio of DPP4 cleaved peptide to intact substrate peptide. Findings were further validated using an independently-collected tumor cohort, correlated with a TCGA mRNA dataset, and confirmed by immunohistochemical stains of PCa tumor microarray (TMA). Our study is the first large-scale proteomics analysis of PCa tissue using a DIA SWATH-MS platform. It provides not only an interrogative proteomic signature of PCa subtypes, but also indicates the critical roles played by certain proteinases during tumor progression. The spectrum map and protein profile generated in the study can be used to investigate potential biological mechanisms involved in PCa and for the development of a clinical assay to distinguish aggressive from indolent PCa.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive cancer with poor patient survival. Toward understanding the underlying molecular alterations that drive PDAC oncogenesis, we conducted comprehensive proteogenomic analysis of 140 pancreatic cancers, 67 normal adjacent tissues, and 9 normal pancreatic ductal tissues. Proteomic, phosphoproteomic, and glycoproteomic analyses were used to characterize proteins and their modifications. In addition, whole-genome sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, methylation, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), and microRNA sequencing (miRNA-seq) were performed on the same tissues to facilitate an integrated proteogenomic analysis and determine the impact of genomic alterations on protein expression, signaling pathways, and post-translational modifications. To ensure robust downstream analyses, tumor neoplastic cellularity was assessed via multiple orthogonal strategies using molecular features and verified via pathological estimation of tumor cellularity based on histological review. This integrated proteogenomic characterization of PDAC will serve as a valuable resource for the community, paving the way for early detection and identification of novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
There is a need for targeted analysis of biological fluids for diagnosis, prognosis, or monitoring the progression of diseases. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum have been widely used for the development of protein analysis for neurodegenerative diseases and other diseases, respectively. Recently, data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry (MS) has been developed to increase the throughput over data-dependent acquisition (DDA) on screening of a large number of samples and discovery of candidate targets. When it comes to target validation, the analytical performance of targeted analysis is critical. However, the inter- and intralaboratory analytical performances of the DIA-MS for targeted proteomic analysis of CSF and serum samples have not yet been investigated. In this study, we showed that the DIA-MS approach allowed us to identify and quantify 1732 CSF and 424 serum proteins, with 90% of proteins identified and quantified in at least 50% of DIA-MS runs. To evaluate the sensitivity, linearity, and dynamic range of the DIA approach, we included the stable isotope-labeled (SI) peptides into CSF and serum samples with serial dilutions. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of peptides was 0.1-0.5 fmol, and the dynamic range was over 3.53 orders of magnitude, with excellent linearity (r2 < 0.978) in CSF and serum samples. Finally, the reproducibility of the DIA-MS approach was evaluated using entire proteins identified in CSF and serum samples. The intralaboratory three replicate results showed reliable reproducibility with 12.5 and 17.3% of the median coefficient of variation (CV) in both CSF and serum matrices, whereas the median CVs of interlaboratory three replicates were 23.8 and 32.0% in CSF and serum samples, respectively. The comparison of the quantitative result between replicates showed close similarity at intra- and interlaboratories with a median Pearson correlation value of >0.98 in CSF and serum, respectively. In conclusion, we demonstrate the capability of the DIA approach as a targeted proteomic analysis for candidate proteins from CSF and serum samples.

Abstract
Lysosomes are the main degradative organelles of almost all eukaryotic cells. They fulfil a crucial function in cellular homeostasis, and impairments in lysosomal function are connected to a continuously increasing number of pathological conditions. In recent years, lysosomes are furthermore emerging as control centers of cellular metabolism, and major regulators of cellular signaling were shown to be activated at the lysosomal surface. To date, >300 proteins were demonstrated to be located in/at the lysosome, and the lysosomal proteome and interactome is constantly growing. For the identification of these proteins, and their involvement in cellular mechanisms or disease progression, mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics has proven its worth in a large number of studies. In this review, we are recapitulating the application of MS-based approaches for the investigation of the lysosomal proteome, and their application to a diverse set of research questions. Numerous strategies were applied for the enrichment of lysosomes or lysosomal proteins and their identification by MS-based methods. This allowed for the characterization of the lysosomal proteome, the investigation of lysosome-related disorders, the utilization of lysosomal proteins as biomarkers for diseases, and the characterization of lysosome-related cellular mechanisms. While these >60 studies provide a comprehensive picture of the lysosomal proteome across several model organisms and pathological conditions, various proteomics approaches have not been applied to lysosomes yet, and a large number of questions are still left unanswered.

Abstract
Although current LC-MS technology permits scientists to efficiently screen clinical samples in translational research, e.g., steroids, biogenic amines, and even plasma or serum proteomes, in a daily routine, maintaining the balance between throughput and analytical depth is still a limiting factor. A typical approach to enhance the proteome depth is employing offline two-dimensional (2D) fractionation techniques before reversed-phase nanoLC-MS/MS analysis (1D-nanoLC-MS). These additional sample preparation steps usually require extensive sample manipulation, which could result in sample alteration and sample loss. Here, we present and compare 1D-nanoLC-MS with an automated online-2D high-pH RP × low pH RP separation method for deep proteome profiling using a nanoLC system coupled to a high-resolution accurate-mass mass spectrometer. The proof-of-principle study permitted the identification of ca. 500 proteins with ∼10,000 peptides in 15 enzymatically digested crude serum samples collected from healthy donors in 3 laboratories across Europe. The developed method identified 60% more peptides in comparison with conventional 1D nanoLC-MS/MS analysis with ca. 4 times lower throughput while retaining the quantitative information. Serum sample preparation related changes were revealed by applying unsupervised classification techniques and, therefore, must be taken into account while planning multicentric biomarker discovery and validation studies. Overall, this novel method reduces sample complexity and boosts the number of peptide and protein identifications without the need for extra sample handling procedures for samples equivalent to less than 1 μL of blood, which expands the space for potential biomarker discovery by looking deeper into the composition of biofluids.

Abstract
Microglial activity in the aging neuroimmune system is a central player in aging-related dysfunction. Aging alters microglial function via shifts in protein signaling cascades. These shifts can propagate neurodegenerative pathology. Therapeutics require a multifaceted approach to understand and address the stochastic nature of this process. Polyphenols offer one such means of rectifying age-related decline. Our group used mass spectrometry (MS) analysis to explicate the complex nature of these aging microglial pathways. In our first experiment, we compared primary microglia isolated from young and aged rats and identified 197 significantly differentially expressed proteins between these groups. Then, we performed bioinformatic analysis to explore differences in canonical signaling cascades related to microglial homeostasis and function with age. In a second experiment, we investigated changes to these pathways in aged animals after 30-day dietary supplementation with NT-020, which is a blend of polyphenols. We identified 144 differentially expressed proteins between the NT-020 group and the control diet group via MS analysis. Bioinformatic analysis predicted an NT-020 driven reversal in the upregulation of age-related canonical pathways that control inflammation, cellular metabolism, and proteostasis. Our results highlight salient aspects of microglial aging at the level of protein interactions and demonstrate a potential role of polyphenols as therapeutics for age-associated dysfunction.

Abstract
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) has attracted chemists recently, for its charm can separate the independent signals from a mixed system and does not need prior knowledge. However, its dissatisfactory performance for the chemical measured signal is still blocking the practicability. Thus, this paper summarized the ICA processing path from the establishment of rectangular coordinates in linear space to the determination of the corresponding relation between the coordinate system and real components. The primary cause of the deviation between the ICA results and the chemical measurements is that the measuring signal was subject to uncertainty. Besides, uncertainty made the deviation of source signal from the statistical independence assumption, or in other words, it appeared to be nonorthogonal. For this key, it proposed to map the measured value to the high-order derivative space, use the derivative to narrow the peak width, reduce the influence of uncertainty, and improve the separation performance of ICA to chemical measurement signal, such as the spectrum. Actual cases of this paper showed that when up to 6th order, the separating results had been perfect for IR spectra, and even for homologs isomers.

Abstract
The Bruker timsTOF Pro is an instrument that couples trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS) to high-resolution time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry (MS). For proteomics, lipidomics, and metabolomics applications, the instrument is typically interfaced with a liquid chromatography (LC) system. The resulting LC-TIMS-MS data sets are, in general, several gigabytes in size and are stored in the proprietary Bruker Tims data format (TDF). The raw data can be accessed using proprietary binaries in C, C++, and Python on Windows and Linux operating systems. Here we introduce a suite of computer programs for data accession, including OpenTIMS, TimsR, and TimsPy. OpenTIMS is a C++ library capable of reading Bruker TDF files. It opens up Bruker's proprietary codebase. TimsPy and TimsR build on top of OpenTIMS, enabling swift and user-friendly data access to the raw data with Python and R. Both programs are available under a GPL3 license on all major platforms, extending the possibility to interact with timsTOF data to macOS. Additionally, OpenTIMS is capable of translating Bruker data into HDF5 files that can be easily analyzed from Python with the vaex module. OpenTIMS and TimsPy therefore provide easy and quick access to Bruker timsTOF raw data.

Comparative proteomics analysis reveals the molecular mechanism of enhanced cold tolerance through ROS scavenging in winter rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). PLoS One 2021; 16:e0243292.

Abstract
Two winter rapeseed cultivars, "NS" (cold tolerant) and "NF" (cold sensitive), were used to reveal the morphological, physiological, and proteomic characteristics in leaves of plants after treatment at -4°C for 12 h(T1) and 24 h(T2), and at room temperature(T0), to understand the molecular mechanisms of cold tolerance. Antioxidant activity and osmotic adjustment ability were higher, and plasma membrane injury was less obvious, in NS than in NF under cold stress. We detected different abundant proteins (DAPs) related to cold tolerance in winter rapeseed through data-independent acquisition (DIA). Compared with NF, A total of 1,235 and 1,543 DAPs were identified in the NSs under T1 and T2, respectively. Compared with NF, 911 proteins were more abundant in NS only after cold treatment. Some of these proteins were related to ROS scavenging through four metabolic pathways: lysine degradation; phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan; flavonoid biosynthesis; and ubiquinone and other terpenoid-quinone biosynthesis. Analysis of these proteins in the four candidate pathways revealed that they were rapidly accumulated to quickly enhance ROS scavenging and improve the cold tolerance of NS. These proteins were noticeably more abundant during the early stage of cold stress, which was critical for avoiding ROS damage.

Abstract
Background Proteomic characterization of cancers is essential for a comprehensive understanding of key molecular aberrations. However, proteomic profiling of a large cohort of cancer tissues is often limited by the conventional approaches. Methods We present a proteomic landscape of 16 major types of human cancer, based on the analysis of 126 treatment-naïve primary tumor tissues, 94 tumor-matched normal adjacent tissues, and 12 normal tissues, using mass spectrometry-based data-independent acquisition approach.
Results In our study, a total of 8527 proteins were mapped to brain, head and neck, breast, lung (both small cell and non-small cell lung cancers), esophagus, stomach, pancreas, liver, colon, kidney, bladder, prostate, uterus and ovary cancers, including 2458 tissue-enriched proteins. Our DIA-based proteomic approach has characterized major human cancers and identified universally expressed proteins as well as tissue-type-specific and cancer-type-specific proteins. In addition, 1139 therapeutic targetable proteins and 21 cancer/testis (CT) antigens were observed. Conclusions Our discoveries not only advance our understanding of human cancers, but also have implications for the design of future large-scale cancer proteomic studies to assist the development of diagnostic and/or therapeutic targets in multiple cancers.

Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disease with heterogeneity in manifestations and outcomes. System-level studies leveraging "omics" technologies are expected to define mechanisms contributing to sarcoidosis heterogeneous manifestations and course. With improvements in mass spectrometry (MS) and bioinformatics, it is possible to study protein abundance for a large number of proteins simultaneously. Contemporary fast-scanning MS enables the acquisition of spectral data for deep coverage of the proteins with data-dependent or data-independent acquisition MS modes. Studies leveraging MS-based proteomics in sarcoidosis have characterized BAL fluid (BALF), alveolar macrophages, plasma, and exosomes. These studies identified several differentially expressed proteins, including protocadherin-2 precursor, annexin A2, pulmonary surfactant A2, complement factors C3, vitamin-D-binding protein, cystatin B, and amyloid P, comparing subjects with sarcoidosis with control subjects. Other studies identified ceruloplasmin, complement factors B, C3, and 1, and others with differential abundance in sarcoidosis compared with other interstitial lung diseases. Using quantitative proteomics, most recent studies found differences in PI3K/Akt/mTOR, MAP kinase, pluripotency-associated transcriptional factor, and hypoxia response pathways. Other studies identified increased clathrin-mediated endocytosis and Fcγ receptor-mediated phagocytosis pathways in sarcoidosis alveolar macrophages. Although studies in mixed BAL and blood cells or plasma are limited, some of the changes in lung compartment are detected in the blood cells and plasma. We review proteomics for sarcoidosis with a focus on the existing MS data acquisition strategies, bioinformatics for spectral data analysis to infer protein identity and quantity, unique aspects about biospecimen collection and processing for lung-related proteomics, and proteomics studies conducted to date in sarcoidosis.

Abstract
Evidence of the involvement of epigenetics in pathologies such as cancer, diabetes, and neurodegeneration has increased global interest in epigenetic modifications. For nearly thirty years, it has been known that cancer cells exhibit abnormal DNA methylation patterns. In contrast, the large-scale analysis of histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs) has lagged behind because classically, histone modification analysis has relied on site specific antibody-based techniques. Mass spectrometry (MS) is a technique that holds the promise to picture the histone code comprehensively in a single experiment. Therefore, we developed an MS-based method that is capable of tracking all possible hPTMs in an untargeted approach. In this way, trends in single and combinatorial hPTMs can be reported and enable prediction of the epigenetic toxicity of compounds. Moreover, this method is based on the use of human cells to provide preliminary data, thereby omitting the need to sacrifice laboratory animals. Improving the workflow and the user-friendliness in order to become a high throughput, easily applicable, toxicological screening assay is an ongoing effort. Still, this novel toxicoepigenetic assay and the data it generates holds great potential for, among others, pharmaceutical industry, food science, clinical diagnostics and, environmental toxicity screening. •There is a growing interest in epigenetic modifications, and more specifically in histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs).•We describe an MS-based workflow that is capable of tracking all possible hPTMs in an untargeted approach that makes use of human cells.•Improving the workflow and the user-friendliness in order to become a high throughput, easily applicable, toxicological screening assay is an ongoing effort.
