Am J Hum Biol 2024:e24113. [PMID: 38864311 DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.24113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with overweight/obesity often exhibit alterations in their plasma protein profiles and reduced heart rate variability (HRV). Plasma proteomics is at the forefront of identifying biomarkers for various clinical conditions. We aimed to examine the association between plasma-targeted proteomics involved in cardiovascular health and resting vagal-related HRV parameters in children with overweight/obesity. METHODS Forty-four children with overweight/obesity (10.2 ± 1.1 years old; 52% boys) participated in the study. Olink's technology was used to quantify 92 proteins involved in cardiovascular health. HRV was measured using a heart rate monitor (Polar RS800CX). Four resting vagal-related HRV parameters were derived in time- and frequency-domain. RESULTS Eight proteins (KIM1, IgG Fc receptor II-b, IDUA, BOC, IL1RL2, TNFRSF11A, VSIG2, and TF) were associated with at least one out of the four vagal-related HRV parameters (β values ranging from -0.188 to 0.288; all p < .05), while KIM1, IDUA, and BOC associated with ≥ three vagal-related HRV parameters. Multiple hypothesis testing corrections did not reach statistical significance (false discovery rate [FDR >0.05]). CONCLUSION Plasma-targeted proteomics suggested novel biomarkers for resting vagal-related HRV parameters in children with overweight/obesity. Future studies using larger cohorts and longitudinal designs should confirm our findings and their potential clinical implications.

Abstract
Human hair is often found at crime scenes, persists for a long time, and is a valuable biological specimen in forensic investigations. Hair contains minimal intact nuclear DNA for the discrimination of individual identity. In such cases, proteomics evaluation of hair proteins could provide an attractive alternative for protein-based human identification. Therefore, this study adopted a proteomic approach to profile hair shafts from both males and females across different ethnic populations including Chinese, Indians, Malays, and Filipinos in their 20-80 s. First, hair proteins were extracted by different methods to adopt the most suitable protocol that produced the highest extraction efficiency based on most significant enrichment of keratins and keratin-associated proteins. Abundance of hair keratins including both types I and II, and keratin-associated proteins, estimated using label-free quantification, showed distinguishable profiles, and the possibilities of distinguishing individuals within each ethnic origin. Similarly, several protein candidates and their abundances could be used to distinguish sex and age of individuals. This study explored the possibility of utilizing hair proteomics phenotyping in forensic science to differentiate individuals across various ethnic groups, sex and age.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the major causative factors for high mortality and morbidity in developing and developed nations. The biomarker detection plays a crucial role in the early diagnosis of several non-infectious and life-threatening diseases like CVD and many cancers, which in turn will help in more successful therapy, reducing the mortality rate. Biomarkers have diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic significances. The search for novel biomarkers using proteomics, bio-sensing, micro-fluidics, and spectroscopic techniques with good sensitivity and specificity for CVD is progressing rapidly at present, in addition to the use of gold standard biomarkers like troponin. This review is dealing with the current progress and prospects in biomarker research for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. Expert opinion. Fast diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) can help to provide rapid medical intervention, which can affect the patient’s short and long-term health. Identification and detection of proper biomarkers for early diagnosis are crucial for successful therapy and prognosis of CVDs. The present review discusses the analysis of clinical samples such as whole blood, blood serum, and other body fluids using techniques like high-performance liquid chromatography-LASER/LED-induced fluorescence, Raman spectroscopy, mainly, optical methods, combined with nanotechnology and micro-fluidic technologies, to probe patterns of multiple markers (marker signatures) as compared to conventional techniques.

Clinical Phenotypes of Cardiovascular and Heart Failure Diseases Can Be Reversed? The Holistic Principle of Systems Biology in Multifaceted Heart Diseases. CARDIOGENETICS 2022.

Abstract
Recent advances in cardiology and biological sciences have improved quality of life in patients with complex cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) or heart failure (HF). Regardless of medical progress, complex cardiac diseases continue to have a prolonged clinical course with high morbidity and mortality. Interventional coronary techniques together with drug therapy improve quality and future prospects of life, but do not reverse the course of the atherosclerotic process that remains relentlessly progressive. The probability of CVDs and HF phenotypes to reverse can be supported by the advances made on the medical holistic principle of systems biology (SB) and on artificial intelligence (AI). Studies on clinical phenotypes reversal should be based on the research performed in large populations of patients following gathering and analyzing large amounts of relative data that embrace the concept of complexity. To decipher the complexity conundrum, a multiomics approach is needed with network analysis of the biological data. Only by understanding the complexity of chronic heart diseases and explaining the interrelationship between different interconnected biological networks can the probability for clinical phenotypes reversal be increased.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis development and progression have been linked to vascular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Plaque formation and especially instability, frequently resulting in acute coronary syndromes, have been linked to cell apoptosis and senescence, but also mainly to increased cellular oxidative stress. ROS are characterized by their high chemical reactivity and a resulting short half-life. This high reactivity usually involves reversible and/or irreversible protein modifications and specifically the covalent oxidative modification of cysteine residues. The latter can be used for the identification of protein-chemical footprints, leading to indirect monitoring of ROS. Proteomics and especially liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) approaches have emerged as a powerful tool to identify such protein modifications in biological samples (e.g., body fluids, tissues, cells). Application of a well-established quantitative thiol trapping technique termed OxICAT enables the detection and quantification of oxidative thiol modifications of thousands of proteins in a single experiment. In this chapter, a step-by-step guide for the redox proteomics analysis of atherosclerotic aortas, by utilizing the OxICAT method, as optimized by our group is provided.

Physical Inactivity Is Associated With Post-discharge Mortality and Re-hospitalization Risk Among Swedish Heart Failure Patients—The HARVEST-Malmö Study. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:843029. [PMID: 35265689 PMCID: PMC8899472 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.843029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Several studies have examined the role of physical activity as a predictor of heart failure (HF) mortality and morbidity. Here, we aimed to evaluate the role of self-reported physical activity as an independent risk factor of post-discharge mortality and re-hospitalization in patients hospitalized for HF, as well as study the association between physical activity and 92 plasma proteins associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods Four-hundred-and-thirty-four patients hospitalized for HF (mean age 75 years; 32% women) were screened for physical activity derived from questionnaires in the Swedish national public health survey. The median follow-up time to death and re-hospitalization was 835 (interquartile range, 390–1,432) and 157 (43–583) days, respectively. Associations between baseline reported physical activity, mortality and re-hospitalization risk were analyzed using multivariable Cox regression analysis. Plasma samples from 295 study participants were analyzed with a proximity extension assay consisting of 92 proteins. Associations between proteins and physical activity were explored using a false discovery rate of <5%, and significant associations were taken forward to multivariate analyses. Results In the multivariate Cox regression model, physical inactivity, defined as physical activity time <1 h throughout the week was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR 1.71; CI95% 1.26–2.31; p = 5.9 × 10−4) as well as all-cause re-hospitalization (HR 1.27; CI95% 1.01–1.60; p = 0.038). Further, physical inactivity was associated with elevated plasma levels of Metalloproteinase inhibitor 4, Soluble interleukin 1 receptor-like 1, Elafin and Transferrin receptor protein 1, which are implicated in myocardial fibrosis, migration and apoptosis. Conclusions Self-reported low weekly physical activity is associated with increased risk of mortality and re-hospitalization in patients hospitalized for HF independent of traditional risk factors. Furthermore, physical inactivity was associated with elevated levels of 4 proteins linked to cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
The human plasma proteome mirrors the physiological state of the cardiovascular system, a fact that has been used to analyze plasma biomarkers in routine analysis for the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular diseases for decades. These biomarkers address, however, only a very limited subset of cardiovascular diseases, such as acute myocardial infarct or acute deep vein thrombosis, and clinical plasma biomarkers for the diagnosis and stratification cardiovascular diseases that are growing in incidence, such as heart failure and abdominal aortic aneurysm, do not exist and are urgently needed. The discovery of novel biomarkers in plasma has been hindered by the complexity of the human plasma proteome that again transforms into an extreme analytical complexity when it comes to the discovery of novel plasma biomarkers. This complexity is, however, addressed by recent achievements in technologies for analyzing the human plasma proteome, thereby facilitating the possibility for novel biomarker discoveries. The aims of this article is to provide an overview of the recent achievements in technologies for proteomic analysis of the human plasma proteome and their applications in cardiovascular medicine.

Abstract
The study presents the results of evaluating the changes in the concentrations of blood plasma proteins associated with heart rate variability (HRV) in cosmonauts who have completed space missions lasting about 6months. The concentrations of 125 proteins were quantified in biological samples of the cosmonauts' blood plasma. The subgroups of proteins associated with the physiological processes of the HRV autonomic regulation were identified using bioinformatic resources (Immunoglobulin heavy constant mu, Complement C1q subcomponent subunit C, Plasma serine protease inhibitor, Protein-72kDa type IV collagenase, Fibulin-1, Immunoglobulin lambda constant 3). The concentration of these proteins in the blood plasma before the flight, and the dynamics of concentration changes on the 1st and 7th days of the post-flight rehabilitation period differed in the groups of cosmonauts with a predominance of sympathetic or parasympathetic modulating autonomous influences. The dynamics of changes in the concentrations of the identified set of proteins reveal that in cosmonauts with a predominance of sympathetic modulating influences, the mechanisms of autonomic regulation are exposed to significant stress in the recovery period immediately after the completion of the space mission, compared with the cosmonauts with a predominance of parasympathetic modulating influences.

Abstract
The primary purpose of 'omics' technologies is to understand the intricacy of genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and other molecular mechanisms to reveal the complex traits of human diseases. The significant use of omics technologies and their applications in medicine gear up the study of the pathogenesis of several disorders. The detection of biomarkers in the early onset of diseases is challenging; still, omics can discover novel molecular mechanisms and biomarkers. In this review, the different types of omics and their technologies are explicated and aimed to provide their emerging applications in cardiovascular precision medicine. These technologies significantly impact optimizing medical treatment for individuals to reach a higher level in precision medicine.

Abstract
Introduction: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a common, complex, and life-threatening disease. Currently, the pathogenesis of AAA is not well understood. No biomarkers or specific drugs are available for AAA in clinical applications. Proteomics is a powerful tool in biomarker discovery, exploration of pathogenesis, and drug target identification.Areas covered: We review the application of mass spectrometry-based proteome analysis in AAA patients within the last ten years. Differentially expressed proteins associated with AAA were identified in multiple sample sources, including vascular tissue, intraluminal thrombus, tissue secretome, blood, and cells. Some potential disease biomarkers, pathogenic mechanisms, or therapeutic targets for AAA were discovered using proteome analysis. The challenges and prospects of proteomics applied to AAA are also discussed.Expert opinion: Since most of the previous proteomic studies used relatively small sample sizes, some promising biomarkers need to be validated in multicenter cohorts to accelerate their clinical application. With the rapid development of mass spectrometry technology, modification-specific proteomics and multi-omics research in the future will enhance our understanding of the pathogenesis of AAA and promote biomarker discovery and drug development for clinical translation.

Abstract
Glycation plays a pathogenic role in many age-related degenerative pathological conditions, such as diabetes, end-stage renal diseases, and cardiovascular diseases. Mass spectrometry-based qualitative and quantitative analysis methods have been greatly developed and contribute to our understanding of protein glycation. However, it is still challenging to sensitively and accurately quantify endogenous glycated proteome in biological samples. Herein, we proposed an integrated and robust quantitative strategy for comprehensive profiling of early-stage glycated proteome. In this strategy, a filter-assisted sample preparation method was applied to reduce sample loss and improve reproducibility of sample preparation, contributing to high-throughput analysis and accurate quantification of endogenous glycated proteins with low abundance. Standard glycated peptides were spiked and performed the subsequent process together with complex samples both in label-free quantification and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) analysis, contributing to the improvement of quantitative accuracy. In parallel, a novel approach was developed for the synthesis of heavy isotope-labeled glycated peptides used in MRM analysis. By this way, a total of 1128 endogenous glycated peptides corresponding to 203 serum proteins were identified from 60 runs of 10 pairs of hemodialysis patients with and without cardiovascular complications, and 234 glycated peptides corresponding to 63 proteins existed in >70% runs, among which 17 peptides were discovered to be differentially glycated (P < 0.05, fold-change > 1.5 or <0.67). Furthermore, we validated the glycation difference of four target peptides in 46 serum samples using MRM analysis, which were consistent with our results of label-free quantification.

[PMID: 33355540 DOI: 10.1556/2060.2020.00040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2020] [Accepted: 07/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Background To investigate the serum level of hepcidin and its relationship with cardiovascular disease (CVD) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods Blood was obtained from 75 MHD patients before undergoing hemodialysis and 20 healthy controls. Serum hepcidin, advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) and interleukin (IL)-6 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). Spearman correlation, and binary logistic regression linear regression analyses were used to assess the relationship between serum hepcidin and other parameters. Results The serum level of hepcidin, AOPP and IL-6 was significantly up-regulated in MHD patients compared with the control (P < 0.05). Furthermore, serum hepcidin levels in patients with CVD were higher than those in patients without CVD (P < 0.05). In all MHD patients, serum hepcidin level was correlated positively with erythropoietin (EPO) dose per week (ρ = 0.251, P = 0.030), EPO resistance index (ρ = 0.268, P = 0.020), ferritin (ρ = 0.814, P < 0.001), transferin saturation (TSAT, ρ = 0.263, P = 0.023), AOPP (ρ = 0.280, P = 0.049), high sensitive C reactive protein (ρ = 0.151, P = 0.006), IL-6 (ρ = 0.340, P = 0.003) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI, ρ = 0.290, P = 0.033). Moreover, it was negatively correlated with serum pre-albumin (ρ = -0.266, P = 0.021), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC, ρ = -0.458, P < 0.001), unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC, ρ = -0.473, P < 0.001) and transferrin (ρ = -0.487, P < 0.001). Linear regression analysis showed that ferritin (β = 0.708, P < 0.001), TIBC (β = -0.246, P = 0.032) and IL-6 (β = 0.209, P = 0.041) were independently associated with hepcidin. Results of binary logistic regression analysis suggested that higher serum hepcidin level (>249.2 ng/mL) was positively and independently related to CVD (OR = 1.32, 95% CI [1.20-9.56], P = 0.043). Conclusions Serum hepcidin level is associated with CVD in MHD patients, indicating that hepcidin may be a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for CVD.

Abstract
While blocking the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) has been the main therapeutic strategy to control diabetic kidney disease (DKD) for many years, 25-30% of diabetic patients still develop the disease. In the present work we adopted a systems biology strategy to analyze glomerular protein signatures to identify drugs with potential therapeutic properties in DKD acting through a RAAS-independent mechanism. Glomeruli were isolated from wild type and type 1 diabetic (Ins2Akita) mice treated or not with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) ramipril. Ramipril efficiently reduced the urinary albumin/creatine ratio (ACR) of Ins2Akita mice without modifying DKD-associated renal-injuries. Large scale quantitative proteomics was used to identify the DKD-associated glomerular proteins (DKD-GPs) that were ramipril-insensitive (RI-DKD-GPs). The raw data are publicly available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD018728. We then applied an in silico drug repurposing approach using a pattern-matching algorithm (Connectivity Mapping) to compare the RI-DKD-GPs's signature with a collection of thousands of transcriptional signatures of bioactive compounds. The sesquiterpene lactone parthenolide was identified as one of the top compounds predicted to reverse the RI-DKD-GPs's signature. Oral treatment of 2 months old Ins2Akita mice with dimethylaminoparthenolide (DMAPT, a water-soluble analogue of parthenolide) for two months at 10 mg/kg/d by gavage significantly reduced urinary ACR. However, in contrast to ramipril, DMAPT also significantly reduced glomerulosclerosis and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Using a system biology approach, we identified DMAPT, as a compound with a potential add-on value to standard-of-care ACEi-treatment in DKD.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is one of the chronic conditions with the highest mortality rate in the world. Underlying conditions such as hypertension, metabolic disorders, and habits like smoking are contributors to the manifestation of cardiovascular diseases. The treatment of cardiovascular diseases is inseparable from the development of drugs. Consequently, this has led to many researchers to focus on the search for effective drug targets. The transient receptor potential channel Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) subtype is a non-selective cation channel, which belongs to the transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channel. Previous studies have shown that members of the TRP family contribute significantly to cardiovascular disease. However, many researchers have not explored the role of TRPA1 as a potential target for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, recent studies revealed that TRPA1 is commonly expressed in the vascular endothelium. The endothelium is linked to the causes of some cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, myocardial fibrosis, heart failure, and arrhythmia. The activation of TRPA1 has a positive effect on atherosclerosis, but it has a negative effect on other cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial fibrosis and heart failure. This review introduces the structural and functional characteristics of TRPA1 and its importance on vascular physiology and common cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, this review summarizes some evidence that TRPA1 is correlated to cardiovascular disease risk factors.

Abstract
Chronic valve disease (CVD) is the most common clinically significant heart disease of dogs, affecting 20 to 40% of dogs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the serum protein profile of healthy and CVD affected dogs, by means of an isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) label-based high-resolution quantitative proteomic approach. Additionally, conventional cardiac biomarkers were measured in the serum, functional bioinformatics analysis was employed for elucidating molecular mechanisms and pathways associated with CVD, and validation of proteomic results was performed by immunoassays and Western blotting. Of 290 identified and quantified proteins, 15 proteins showed significantly different abundances (p < .05), including antithrombin-III, alpha-2-antiplasmin, tetranectin, apolipoprotein M, adiponectin, inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H1, gelsolin and apolipoprotein B-100. The identified proteins with differently abundances are involved in a number of pathways, such as complement and coagulation cascades, haemostasis, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, lipid metabolism and transport. We found comparative similarities with human disease in terms of identified proteins and GO pathways, which confirmed similar pathophysiology of this disease, but also differences, mainly in lipid metabolism. SIGNIFICANCE: There have been few investigations of canine serum proteome despite the potential for biomarker discovery and comparative disease analysis. Establishing serum proteomic signatures in healthy dogs and dogs with CVD will benefit for understanding the aetiology of disease in dogs, identify putative biomarkers and provide models of comparative human disease. Circulating biomarkers are important for understanding of the mechanisms of cardiovascular disease and high incidence of CVD in dogs prioritizes the search for novel biomarkers.

Abstract
SCOPE Proteomics has provided new strategies to elucidate the mechanistic action of hesperidin, a flavonoid present in citrus fruits. Thus, the aim of the present study is to determine the effects of hesperidin supplementation (HS) on the proteomic profiles of heart and kidney tissue samples from healthy and metabolic syndrome (MS) rats. METHODS AND RESULTS 24 Sprague Dawley rats are randomized into four groups: healthy rats fed with a standard diet without HS, healthy rats administered with HS (100 mg kg-1 day-1 ), MS rats without HS, and MS rats administered with HS (100 mg kg-1 day-1 ) for eight weeks. Heart and kidney samples are obtained, and proteomic analysis is performed by mass spectrometry. Multivariate, univariate, and ingenuity pathways analyses are performed. Comparative and semiquantitative proteomic analyses of heart and kidney tissues reveal differential protein expression between MS rats with and without HS. The top diseases and functions implicated are related to the cardiovascular system, free radical scavenging, lipid metabolism, glucose metabolism, and renal and urological diseases. CONCLUSION This study is the first to demonstrate the protective capacity of hesperidin to change to the proteomic profiles in relation to different cardiovascular risk biomarkers in the heart and kidney tissues of MS rats.

Abstract
The ability to predict tandem mass (MS/MS) spectra from peptide sequences can significantly enhance our understanding of the peptide fragmentation process and could improve peptide identification in proteomics. However, current approaches for predicting high-energy collisional dissociation (HCD) spectra are limited to predict the intensities of expected ion types, that is, the a/b/c/x/y/z ions and their neutral loss derivatives (referred to as backbone ions). In practice, backbone ions only account for <70% of total ion intensities in HCD spectra, indicating many intense ions are ignored by current predictors. In this paper, we present a deep learning approach that can predict the complete spectra (both backbone and nonbackbone ions) directly from peptide sequences. We made no assumptions or expectations on which kind of ions to predict but instead predicting the intensities for all possible m/z. Training this model needs no annotations of fragment ion nor any prior knowledge of the fragmentation rules. Our analyses show that the predicted 2+ and 3+ HCD spectra are highly similar to the experimental spectra, with average full-spectrum cosine similarities of 0.820 (±0.088) and 0.786 (±0.085), respectively, very close to the similarities between the experimental replicated spectra. In contrast, the best-performed backbone only models can only achieve an average similarity below 0.75 and 0.70 for 2+ and 3+ spectra, respectively. Furthermore, we developed a multitask learning (MTL) approach for predicting spectra of insufficient training samples, which allows our model to make accurate predictions for electron transfer dissociation (ETD) spectra and HCD spectra of less abundant charges (1+ and 4+).

Abstract
The complex pathobiology underlying cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has yet to be explained. Aberrant epigenetic changes may result from alterations in enzymatic activities, which are responsible for putting in and/or out the covalent groups, altering the epigenome and then modulating gene expression. The identification of novel individual epigenetic-sensitive trajectories at single cell level might provide additional opportunities to establish predictive, diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers as well as drug targets in CVDs. To date, most of studies investigated DNA methylation mechanism and miRNA regulation as epigenetics marks. During atherogenesis, big epigenetic changes in DNA methylation and different ncRNAs, such as miR-93, miR-340, miR-433, miR-765, CHROME, were identified into endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and macrophages. During man development, lipid metabolism, inflammation and homocysteine homeostasis, alter vascular transcriptional mechanism of fundamental genes such as ABCA1, SREBP2, NOS, HIF1. At histone level, increased HDAC9 was associated with matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP1) and MMP2 expression in pro-inflammatory macrophages of human carotid plaque other than to have a positive effect on toll like receptor signaling and innate immunity. HDAC9 deficiency promoted inflammation resolution and reverse cholesterol transport, which might block atherosclerosis progression and promote lesion regression. Here, we describe main human epigenetic mechanisms involved in atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, ischemic stroke, peripheral artery disease; cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Different epigenetics mechanisms are activated, such as regulation by circular RNAs, as MICRA, and epitranscriptomics at RNA level. Moreover, in order to open new frontiers for precision medicine and personalized therapy, we offer a panoramic view on the most innovative bioinformatic tools designed to identify putative genes and molecular networks underlying CVDs in man.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risks persist in patients despite treatment. CVD susceptibility also varies with sex and ethnicity and is not entirely explained by conventional CVD risk factors. The aim of the present study was to identify novel CVD candidate markers in circulating Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and plasma from Arab obese subjects with and without CVD using proteomic approaches. Human adults with confirmed CVD (n = 208) and matched non-CVD controls (n = 152) living in Kuwait were examined in the present cross-sectional study. Anthropometric and classical biochemical parameters were determined. We employed a shotgun proteomic profiling approach on PBMCs isolated from a subset of the groups (n = 4, each), and differentially expressed proteins selected between the two groups were validated at the mRNA level using RT-PCR (n = 6, each). Plasma levels of selected proteins from the proteomics profiling: Proteinase-3 (PR3), Annexin-A3 (ANX3), Defensin (DEFA1), and Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9), were measured in the entire cohort using human enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits and were subsequently correlated with various clinical parameters. Out of the 1407 we identified and quantified from the proteomics profiling, 47 proteins were dysregulated with at least twofold change between the two subject groups. Among the differentially expressed proteins, 11 were confirmed at the mRNA levels. CVD influenced the levels of the shortlisted proteins (MMP9, PR3, ANX3, and DEFA1) in the PBMCs and plasma differentially. Despite the decreased levels of both protein and mRNA in PBMCs, PR3 circulating levels increased significantly in patients with CVD and were influenced by neither diabetes nor statin treatment. No significant changes were; however, observed in the DEFA1, MMP9, and ANX3 levels in plasma. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that only PR3 was independently associated with CVD. Our results suggest that the dysregulation of PR3 levels in plasma and PBMCs reflects underlying residual CVD risks even in the treated population. More prospective and larger studies are required to establish the role of PR3 in CVD progression.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Mangiferin is a natural glucosylxanthone with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which has been confirmed to protect cardiac cells from myocardial infarction and myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI); however, the underlying mechanism is still unclear. As oxidative stress is a major pathogenesis of MIRI, an H9C2 cell injury induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was established to simulate MIRI in vitro. Herein, the protective effect of mangiferin against MIRI was evaluated and the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ)-based proteomics was applied to explore the underlying molecular mechanism. In this research, mangiferin markedly ameliorated the oxidative imbalance by increasing the antioxidative capacity of the H9C2 cell. Moreover, proteomics analysis revealed that mangiferin pretreatment brought twenty differently-expressed proteins back to normal, most of which were related to glucose and fatty acid metabolism. Glycolysis, citrate cycle, and fatty acid degradation pathways were highlighted by Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. Western blot validation of six cardiac metabolism-related proteins were consistent with the proteomics analysis. Taken together, mangiferin protected the cardiomyocytes from MIRI by enhancing the antioxidant capacity and increasing the activities of glycolysis, citrate cycle, and fatty acid degradation pathways.

Abstract
Introduction: Multiple (or selected) reaction monitoring-mass spectrometry (MRM/SRM) is a targeted proteomic method that can be used for relative and absolute quantification. Multiple reports exist supporting the potential of the approach in proteomic biomarker validation. Areas covered: To get an overview of the applications of MRM in protein quantification in plasma, a search in MedLine/PubMed was performed using the keywords: 'MRM/SRM plasma proteomic/proteomics/proteome'. The retrieved studies were further filtered to focus on disease biomarkers and the main results are summarized. Expert opinion: MRM is increasingly employed for the quantification of both well-established but also newly discovered putative biomarkers and occasionally their post-translationally modified forms in plasma. Fractionation is regularly required for the detection of low abundance proteins. Standardized procedures to facilitate assay establishment and marker quantification have been proposed and, in few cases, implemented. Nevertheless, in most cases, absolute quantification is not performed. To advance, multiple technical issues including the regular use of standard labeled peptides and appropriate quality controls to monitor assay performance should be considered. Additionally, clinical aspects involving careful study design to address biomarker clinical use should also be considered.

Abstract
Although cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbimortality worldwide, promising new drug candidates are lacking. We compared the arterial high-resolution proteome of patients with advanced versus early-stage CVD to predict, from a library of small bioactive molecules, drug candidates able to reverse this disease signature. Of the approximately 4000 identified proteins, 100 proteins were upregulated and 52 were downregulated in advanced-stage CVD. Arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone (AACOCF3), a cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) inhibitor was predicted as the top drug able to reverse the advanced-stage CVD signature. Vascular cPLA2 expression was increased in patients with advanced-stage CVD. Treatment with AACOCF3 significantly reduced vascular calcification in a cholecalciferol-overload mouse model and inhibited osteoinductive signaling in vivo and in vitro in human aortic smooth muscle cells. In conclusion, using a systems biology approach, we have identified a potentially new compound that prevented typical vascular calcification in CVD in vivo. Apart from the clear effect of this approach in CVD, such strategy should also be able to generate novel drug candidates in other complex diseases.

Abstract
Background The increased prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) indicates a demand for novel therapeutic approaches. Proteome analysis of vascular tissues from animal models and humans with CVD could lead to the identification of novel druggable targets. Methods LC-MS/MS analysis of thoracic aortas from three mouse models of non-diabetic and diabetic (streptozotocin (STZ)-induced) atherosclerosis followed by bioinformatics/pathway analysis was performed. Selected findings were confirmed by proteomics analysis of human vessels from patients with CVD as well as in vitro studies (migration, proliferation, angiogenesis assays) using endothelial (HUVEC) cells. Findings Comparative tissue proteomics of low density lipoprotein receptor deficient (Ldlr−/−) and diabetic Ldlr−/− (Ldlr−/−STZ) with wild type (WT) animals led to the identification of 284 differentially expressed proteins in both models. Among them, 177 proteins were also differentially expressed in diabetic apolipoprotein E deficient (ApoE−/−STZ) mice, suggesting expression changes associated with atherosclerosis independent of the model used. These proteins recapitulated the hallmarks of atherosclerosis. Comparison of these findings with differentially expressed proteins in human vessels with CVD enabled shortlisting of six commonly dysregulated proteins. Among them, lysine-specific demethylase 5D (KDM5D) exhibited pronounced overexpression accompanied by a reduction in the protein levels of its substrate, the trimethylated lysine 4 of histone H3 (H3K4me3), in patients with CVD. Functional interference studies applying a KDM5 inhibitor on HUVEC reduced cell proliferation, migration and tube-forming ability in vitro. Interpretation This high-throughput proteomics strategy identified KDM5 histone demethylases being potentially involved in CVD, possibly by affecting H3K4 methylation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) describes the pathological conditions of the heart and blood vessels. Despite the large number of studies on CVD and its etiology, its key modulators remain largely unknown. To this end, we performed a comprehensive proteomic analysis of blood plasma, with the scope to identify disease-associated changes after placing them in the context of existing knowledge, and generate a well characterized dataset for further use in CVD multi-omics integrative analysis. METHODS LC-MS/MS was employed to analyze plasma from 32 subjects (19 cases of various CVD phenotypes and 13 controls) in two steps: discovery (13 cases and 8 controls) and test (6 cases and 5 controls) set analysis. Following label-free quantification, the detected proteins were correlated to existing plasma proteomics datasets (plasma proteome database; PPD) and functionally annotated (Cytoscape, Ingenuity Pathway Analysis). Differential expression was defined based on identification confidence (≥ 2 peptides per protein), statistical significance (Mann-Whitney p value ≤ 0.05) and a minimum of twofold change. RESULTS Peptides detected in at least 50% of samples per group were considered, resulting in a total of 3796 identified proteins (838 proteins based on ≥ 2 peptides). Pathway annotation confirmed the functional relevance of the findings (representation of complement cascade, fibrin clot formation, platelet degranulation, etc.). Correlation of the relative abundance of the proteins identified in the discovery set with their reported concentrations in the PPD was significant, confirming the validity of the quantification method. The discovery set analysis revealed 100 differentially expressed proteins between cases and controls, 39 of which were verified (≥ twofold change) in the test set. These included proteins already studied in the context of CVD (such as apolipoprotein B, alpha-2-macroglobulin), as well as novel findings (such as low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 2 [LRP2], protein SZT2) for which a mechanism of action is suggested. CONCLUSIONS This proteomic study provides a comprehensive dataset to be used for integrative and functional studies in the field. The observed protein changes reflect known CVD-related processes (e.g. lipid uptake, inflammation) but also novel hypotheses for further investigation including a potential pleiotropic role of LPR2 but also links of SZT2 to CVD.

Abstract
There is a strong association between a suboptimal maternal environment and increased risk of developing age-associated diseases such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease in the offspring. Blood clotting time may be altered in all of these conditions, and it is also an important factor that requires monitoring in postoperative and cardiovascular disorder patients who are on coagulant medications. This chapter describes patient self-management of blood coagulation activity using a test strip device and the Coagu app. The app can also be used as a reminder of treatment times and for monitoring the effects of treatment over time.

Abstract
Wound healing is a highly complex life-important repair process triggered by plenty of local and/or systemic organ and tissue damaging events, such as an acute surgical invasion, accidental organ and tissue damages, acute and chronic diseases, aggressive local and systemic therapeutic approaches (e.g. irradiation and systemic chemotherapy). Individual health condition determines over the quality of wound healing. Impaired wound healing, in turn, may lead, for example, to post-surgical complications frequently observed in elderly, chronic ulcers in diabetic patients, hindered and ineffective pain management, etc. However, these well-acknowledged examples are just the tip of the iceberg. The entire spectrum of potential consequences is much broader. Therefore, all the aspects of wound healing need to receive a dedicated attention of many specialised medical fields and healthcare as a whole. In contrast, there is still strongly limited knowledge collected regarding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the physiological versus impaired wound healing. The contents of this article might be of great importance for multi-professional considerations as well as for the experts working in specific fields such as clinical proteomics, general practice, laboratory medicine, surgery including plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine, gerontology, psychology, diabetology, endocrinology, oncology, cardiovascular disease, radiology, and healthcare economy. SIGNIFICANCE The contents of this article are strongly motivated by the particular value of wound healing quality for medical care and might be of great importance for multi-professional considerations and experts working in specialised fields: predictive and preventive medicine, general practitioners, laboratory medicine, surgery including plastic surgery and aesthetic medicine, gerontology, psychology, diabetology, endocrinology, oncology, cardiovascular disease, radiology, and healthcare economy. The article is aiming at both educational and scientific purposes: on one side it summarises comprehensive information available regarding wound healing mechanisms and molecular pathways involved. On the other side the article provides highly innovative hypotheses for multi-professional considerations relevant for several research fields which may potentially advance medical services in the close future such as clinical proteomics and multi-omics.
