J Chromatogr A 2024; 1730:465173. [PMID: 39025024 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.465173] [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: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 07/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
A dipeptide-based bifunctional material immobilized with Ti4+ (denoted as APE-MBA-VPA-Ti4+) was developed using precipitation polymerization. This polymer combines hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and immobilized metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) enrichment strategies, allowing for the individual and simultaneous enrichment of glycopeptides and phosphopeptides. It demonstrated high sensitivity (0.1 fmol μL-1 for glycopeptides, 0.005 fmol μL-1 for phosphopeptides), strong selectivity (molar ratio HRP: BSA = 1:1000, β-casein: BSA = 1:2500), consistent reusability (10 cycles) and satisfactory recovery rate (93.5 ± 1.8 % for glycopeptides, 91.6 ± 0.6 % for phosphopeptides) in the individual enrichment. Utilizing nano LC-MS/MS technology, the serum of liver cancer patients was analyzed after enrichment individually, resulting in the successful capture of 333 glycopeptides covering 262 glycosylation sites, corresponding to 131 glycoproteins, as well as 67 phosphopeptides covering 57 phosphorylation sites, related to 48 phosphoproteins. In comparison, the serum of normal healthy individuals yielded a total of 283 glycopeptides covering 244 glycosylation sites corresponding to 126 glycoproteins, as well as 66 phosphopeptides covering 56 phosphorylation sites related to 37 phosphoproteins. Label-free quantification identified 10 differentially expressed glycoproteins and 8 differentially expressed phosphoproteins in the serum of liver cancer patients. Among them, glycoproteins (HP, BCHE, AGT, C3, and PROC) and phosphoproteins (ZYX, GOLM1, GP1BB, CLU, and TNXB) showed upregulation and displayed potential as biomarkers for liver cancer.

Abstract
Polyoxometalate-based metal-organic frameworks (POMOFs) have become a promising affinity material for separation and enrichment. The analysis of protein phosphorylation represents a challenge for the development of efficient enrichment materials. Here, a novel zirconium-rich magnetic POMOF was successfully designed and prepared for the enrichment of phosphopeptides. The binding affinity of the nanomaterial partly came from Fe-O clusters in the MOF. The Lewis acid-base interactions between V-O clusters and zirconium ions in V10O28-Zr4+ and phosphate groups in phosphopeptides further strengthened the enrichment ability. The zirconium-rich magnetic POMOF was employed to capture phosphopeptides from non-fat milk, human saliva, and serum. Additionally, 748 unique phosphopeptide peaks were detected from the tryptic digests of lung cancer A549 cell proteins with a high specificity (86.9 %). POMOFs will become an active competitor for the design of protein affinity materials and will provide a new approach for phosphopeptide analysis.

Abstract
As one of the most common post-translational modification of proteins, protein phosphorylation plays a vital role in many physiological processes. The enrichment of phosphopeptides is highly important before the mass spectrometry detection since phosphopeptides are susceptible to interferences from high-abundance non-phosphopeptides. In this study, we designed a novel magnetic composite (Fe3O4@PDA-PEI-Fe3+) for phosphopeptide enrichment with a facile protocol. The developed Fe3O4@PDA-PEI-Fe3+ is a marvelous material with multiple functional groups, and can effectively enrich phosphopeptides through the synergistic effect of three mechanisms, i.e., immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography raised form Fe3+, electrostatic interaction between amine and phosphate groups, and hydrogen bond between the hydrogen atoms of amine groups and oxygen atoms of phosphate groups. Combined with mass spectrometry, the material shows excellent enrichment performance, high sensitivity (0.4 fmol), good selectivity (β-casein:BSA= 1:500, w:w), and stable reusability (at least 5 cycles). In addition, the material was successfully applied to enrich phosphopeptides from skim milk and human saliva samples, implying that it is an ideal adsorbent for the phosphopeptide enrichment in complex biological samples and provides valuable insights into the field of phosphopeptide analysis.

Abstract
The spatial distribution of lipidomes in tissues is of great importance in studies of living processes, diseases, and therapies. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) has become a critical technique for spatial lipidomics. However, MSI of low-abundance or poorly ionizable lipids is still challenging because of the ion suppression from high-abundance lipids. Here, a metal-organic framework (MOF) Zr6O4(OH)4(1,3,5-Tris(4-carboxyphenyl) benzene)2(triflate)6(Zr6OTf-BTB) was prepared and used for selective on-tissue adsorption of phospholipids to reduce ion suppression from them to poorly ionizable lipids. The results show that Zr6OTf-BTB with strong Lewis acidic sites and a large specific surface area (647.9 m2·g-1) could selectively adsorb phospholipids under 1% FA-MeOH. Adsorption efficiencies of phospholipids are 88.4-144.9 times higher than those of other neutral lipids. Moreover, the adsorption capacity and the adsorption kinetic rate constant of the new material to phospholipids are higher than those of Zr6-BTB (242.72 vs 73.96 mg·g-1, 0.0442 vs 0.0220 g·mg-1·min-1). A Zr6OTf-BTB sheet was prepared by a lamination technique for on-tissue phospholipid adsorption from brain tissue. Then, the tissue section on the Zr6OTf-BTB sheet was directly imaged via ambient liquid extraction-MSI with 1% FA-MeOH as the sampling solvent. The results showed that phospholipids could be 100% removed directly on tissue, and the detection coverage of the Zr6OTf-BTB-enhanced MSI method to ceramides (Cers) and hexosylceramides (HexCers) was increased by 5-26 times compared with direct tissue MSI (26 vs 1 and 17 vs 3). The new method provides an efficient and convenient way to eliminate the ion suppression from phospholipids in MSI, largely improving the detection coverage of low-abundance and poorly ionizable lipids.

Abstract
In this work, a novel fluorescence sensor UiO-66-PSM based on post-synthetic modified metal-organic frameworks was prepared for the detection of berberine hydrochloride (BBH) in the traditional Chinese herb Coptis. UiO-66-PSM was synthesized by a simple Schiff base reaction with UiO-66-NH2 and phthalaldehyde (PAD). The luminescence quenching can be attributed to the photo-induced electron transfer process from the ligand of UiO-66-PSM to BBH. The UiO-66-PSM sensor exhibited fast response time, low detection limit, and high selectivity to BBH. Moreover, the UiO-66-PSM sensor was successfully applied to the quantitative detection of BBH in the traditional Chinese herb Coptis, and the detection results obtained from the as-fabricated fluorescence sensing assay were consistent with those of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), indicating that this work has potential applicability for the detection of BBH in traditional Chinese herbs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein phosphorylation has been implicated in life processes including molecular interaction, protein structure transformation, and malignant disease. An in-depth study of protein phosphorylation may provide vital information for the discovery of early biomarkers. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based techniques have become an important method for phosphopeptide identification. Nevertheless, direct detection remains challenging because of the low ionization efficiency of phosphopeptides and serious interference from non-phosphopeptides. There is a great need for an efficient enrichment strategy to analyze protein phosphorylation prior to MS analysis. RESULTS In this study, a novel nanocomposite was prepared by introducing titanium ions into two-dimensional magnetic graphite nitride. The nanocomposite was combined with immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) and anion-exchange chromatography mechanisms for phosphoproteome research. The nanocomposite had the advantages of a large specific surface (412.9 m2 g-1), positive electricity (175.44 mV), and excellent magnetic property (35.7 emu g-1). Moreover, it presented satisfactory selectivity (α-casein:β-casein:bovine serum albumin = 1:1:5000), a low detection limit (0.02 fmol), great recyclability (10 cycles), and high recovery (92.8%). The nanocomposite demonstrated great practicability for phosphopeptides from non-fat milk, human serum, and saliva. Further, the nanocomposite was applied to enrich phosphopeptides from a more complicated specimen, A549 cell lysate. A total of 890 phosphopeptides mapping to 564 phosphoproteins were successfully detected with nano LC-MS. SIGNIFICANCE We successfully designed and developed an efficient analysis platform for phosphopeptides, which includes protein digestion, phosphopeptide enrichment, and MS detection. The MS-based enrichment platform was further used to analyze phosphopeptides from complicated bio-samples. This work paves the way for the design and preparation of graphite nitride-based IMAC materials for phosphoproteome analysis.

Abstract
In the present study, by employing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), tetraethylene pentaamine (TEPA), and rhodamine B (Rb), we designed and synthesized a magnetic adsorbent (Fe3O4@EDTA@TEPA@Rb) on the basis of reversible charge change of Rb and applied to capture phosphopeptides. Rb existing in open planarized zwitterion form when stimulated by acidic loading buffer adsorbs negative phosphopeptides via electrostatic interaction. Under the stimulation of alkalic eluent, ring-closed structure of Rb is formed to elute the enriched phosphopeptides. TEPA containing rich amino groups is used as a crosslinking agent, which is also protonated in acidic loading buffer to bond phosphopeptides. Then phosphopeptides are eluted when TEPA deprotonates in alkalic eluent. Coupled with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) detection, phosphopeptide signals originated from 0.4 fmol/μL β-casein digests were successfully detected. In addition, Fe3O4@EDTA@TEPA@Rb can also efficiently enrich phosphopeptides from skimmed milk, human serum and saliva samples (26, 4, 39 phosphopeptides, respectively), opening a new gallery for phosphopeptides-related analysis. In general, the developed adsorbent has the great potential for further application in the near future.

Abstract
Dual-selective enrichment of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides of post-translational modifications (PTMs) in the complex biological samples are challenging. In this work, considering the versatile properties including surface abundant metal sites and electrostatic attraction between Ti3 C2 -layers and Al-layers, layered ternary carbides Ti3 AlC2 nanomaterials was successfully applied for the first time as an affinity adsorbent for the dual-selective capture of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides. Especially, the Ti3 AlC2 nanomaterials had an excellent detection sensitivity for phosphopeptides (1×10-11 M) and a good selectivity for glycopeptides with a low molar ratio of 1 : 500 of HRP (horseradish peroxidase) to BSA (bovine serum albumin). Furthermore, Ti3 AlC2 nanomaterials was also applied for dual-selective enrichment of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides from mouse brain neocortex lysate and human serum lysate respectively before mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, yielding twenty-two unique phosphopeptides from thirteen phosphoproteins and fifty-three unique glycopeptides from thirty-seven glycoproteins, respectively. This work will open a new avenue and will greatly promote sample preparation for mass spectrometric analysis in phosphoproteomics and glycoproteomics research.

Abstract
The comprehensive profiling of glycoproteins is of great significance for the timely clinical diagnosis and therapy. However, inherent obstacles hamper their direct analysis from biological samples, and specific enrichment prior to analysis is indispensable. Among the various approaches for glycopeptide enrichment, hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) has attracted special focus, especially for the development of novel hydrophilic materials, which is the key of HILIC. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a type of porous materials constructed from the self-assembly of metal and organic linkers. Advantages such as high surface area, flexible pore size, and easy modification render hydrophilic MOFs as ideal candidates for HILIC, which has inspired many studies over the past years. In this review, advances in hydrophilic MOFs for N-linked glycopeptide enrichment are summarized. According to the synthesis strategies, those materials are categorized into three classes, namely pristine MOFs, MOFs with chemical modifications, and MOFs-derived composite. In each categorization, the preparation and the function of different moieties are covered, as well as the enrichment performances of sensitivity, selectivity, and practical application. Finally, a summary and future perspective on the applications of hydrophilic MOFs for N-linked glycopeptide enrichment are briefly discussed. This review is expected to raise awareness of the properties of hydrophilic MOFs and offer some valuable information to further research in glycoproteomics.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications, and aberrant glycosylation is associated with the occurrence and development of diseases. Deciphering abnormal glycosylation changes can identify disease-specific signatures to facilitate the discovery of potential disease biomarkers. However, glycosylation analysis is challenging due to the diversity of glycans, heterogeneity of glycosites, and poor electrospray ionization of mass spectrometry. To overcome these obstacles, glycosylation is often elucidated using enriched glycopeptides by removing highly abundant non-glycopeptides. Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) is widely used for glycopeptide enrichment due to its excellent selectivity and specificity to hydrophilic glycans and compatibility with mass spectrometry. However, the development of HILIC has lagged far behind hydrophobic interaction chromatography, so efforts to further improve the performance of HILIC are beneficial for glycosylation analysis. This review discusses recent developments in HILIC materials and their advanced applications. Based on the physiochemical properties of glycopeptides, the use of amino acids or peptides as stationary phases showed improved enrichment and separation of glycopeptides. We can envision that the use of glycopeptides as stationary phases would definitely further improve the selectivity and specificity of HILIC for glycosylation analysis.

Abstract
In this study, new graphene-based IMAC nanocomposites for phosphopeptide enrichment were prepared according to the guideline of our new design strategy. Superhydrophilic polyethyleneimine (PEI) was introduced, to which a phosphonate-functionalized ionic liquid (PFIL) was covalently bound, to form superhydrophilic and cationic surface layers with high densities of nitrogen atoms, phosphonate functional groups, and high-loading metal ions. Due to the combined features of superhydrophilicity, flexibility, highly dense metal binding sites, large surface area and excellent size-exclusion effect, the fabricated nanocomposite G@mSiO2@PEI-PFIL-Ti4+ exhibits superior detection sensitivity to enrich phosphopeptides (tryptic β-casein digest, 0.1 fmol), and extraordinary enrichment specificity to enrich phosphopeptides from a digest mixture of β-casein and bovine serum albumin (BSA) (molar ratio, 1 : 12 000). The excellent size-exclusion effect was also observed, and 27 endogenous phosphopeptides were identified in human saliva. All these results could be attributed to the unique superhydrophilic nanocomposite structure with a high density of a cationic linker modified with phosphonate functionality. Moreover, G@mSiO2@PEI-PFIL-Ti4+ adsorbents were used to extract phosphopeptides from the tryptic digests of hippocampal lysates for quantitative phosphoproteome analysis. The preliminary results indicate that 1649 phosphoproteins, 3286 phosphopeptides and 4075 phosphorylation sites were identified. A total of 13 Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related phosphopeptides within tau proteins were detected with a wide coverage from p-Thr111 to p-Ser404, in which the amounts of some phoshopeptides at certain sites in AD transgenic mice were found statistically higher than those in wild type littermates. Besides, phosphorylated neurofilament heavy chains, a potential biomarker for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and traumatic brain injury, were also identified. Finally, the adsorbent was applied to human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood samples. 5 unique phosphopeptides of neuroendocrine specific VGF were identified in the CSF, while many phosphopeptides originated from the nervous system were found in the blood sample. All these results suggest that our new IMAC materials exhibit unbiased enrichment ability with superior detection sensitivity and specificity, allowing the global phosphoproteome analysis of complicated biological samples more convincible and indicating the potential use in disease diagnosis.

Abstract
Highly efficient enrichment of N-glycopeptides from complicated biosamples based on mass spectrometry is essential for biomedical applications, especially in disease biomarker research. In this work, glutathione (GSH)-modified hierarchical flower-like hollow covalent organic frameworks loaded with Au nanoparticles (HFH-COFs@Au@GSH) were synthesized for N-glycopeptide enrichment. Due to the abundant accessibility sites, high specific surface area, and inherent high stability of the hierarchical flower-like hollow structure, a large number of Au NPs and hydrophilic GSH can be modified on the HFH-COFs. The HFH-COFs@Au@GSH displayed excellent hydrophilicity and remarkable enrichment performance for N-glycopeptides: low detection limit (0.1 fmol μL-1), large adsorption capacity (200 μg mg-1), great selectivity (1 : 1000, HRP to BSA), and good reusability (at least 5 times). Furthermore, the HFH-COFs@Au@GSH were successfully applied to capture N-linked glycopeptides in human serum, and 308 N-glycosylation peptides corresponding to 84 N-glycosylation proteins with 123 N-glycosylation sites were detected. Gene ontology analyses were used to elucidate the cellular component, biological process and molecular function of detected glycoproteins in human serum, demonstrating the great potential of the HFH-COFs@Au@GSH in N-glycopeptide enrichment for glycoproteomic analysis of complex biological samples.
