Establishing Personalized Blood Protein Reference Ranges Using Noninvasive Microsampling and Targeted Proteomics: Implications for Antidoping Strategies. J Proteome Res 2024; 23:1779-1787. [PMID: 38655860 PMCID: PMC11077581 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jproteome.4c00020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024]
Abstract
To prevent doping practices in sports, the World Anti-Doping Agency implemented the Athlete Biological Passport (ABP) program, monitoring biological variables over time to indirectly reveal the effects of doping rather than detect the doping substance or the method itself. In the context of this program, a highly multiplexed mass spectrometry-based proteomics assay for 319 peptides corresponding to 250 proteins was developed, including proteins associated with blood-doping practices. "Baseline" expression profiles of these potential biomarkers in capillary blood (dried blood spots (DBS)) were established using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). Combining DBS microsampling with highly multiplexed MRM assays is the best-suited technology to enhance the effectiveness of the ABP program, as it represents a cost-effective and robust alternative analytical method with high specificity and selectivity of targets in the attomole range. DBS data were collected from 10 healthy athlete volunteers over a period of 140 days (28 time points per participant). These comprehensive findings provide a personalized targeted blood proteome "fingerprint" showcasing that the targeted proteome is unique to an individual and likely comparable to a DNA fingerprint. The results can serve as a baseline for future studies investigating doping-related perturbations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling has emerged as a valuable technique for understanding drug exposure and response relationships in drug development. Pharmacokinetic data are often obtained by taking multiple blood samples, which may disturb physiological parameters and complicate study designs. Wearable automatic blood sampling systems can improve this limitation by collecting dried blood samples at programmable time points without disrupting cardiovascular parameters. It is the objective of this study to evaluate the bioanalysis of DBS in comparison to conventional blood sampling techniques and to optimize the recovery of various compounds spiked into canine blood dried on filter paper tape. METHODS Incubated blood samples from Beagle dogs were spiked with 16 different compounds and half of the whole blood sample was centrifuged to obtain plasma. After the dried blood sample drops were dried, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry methods were used to analyze the samples. The study explored different anticoagulants, sample preparation methods and technical approaches to best determine the compound concentrations in dried blood samples. RESULTS With the two anticoagulants tested and using the optimized sample preparation methods and technical approaches we employed, the bioanalysis of dried blood samples can provide equivalent results to conventional blood sampling techniques. DISCUSSION Automated blood sampling systems have the potential to provide increased numbers of blood samples, providing substantially more Pharmacokinetic data within safety pharmacology studies without disrupting physiological parameters. They can provide a viable alternative to traditional methods of obtaining blood for various other types of studies or analyses.

Abstract
Diagnostic serial venous blood sampling has the potential to introduce stress-related artifactual elements into the analytical results. We have evaluated the use of a wearable automated serial blood sampling device in a canine model that obviates a need for multiple manual venipuncture. Efficacy in measuring cortisol levels during prolonged serial blood sampling is described. Automated serial blood sampling from the jugular vein was performed in two Beagle dogs. Over two separate 22-h periods, serial blood samples were withdrawn for routine cell counting and blood chemistries from each animal, whilst animal behavior along with durability of catheter placement and tolerability by the vascular system were assessed. During the study, no behavioral changes attributed to the serial blood sampling device were seen and no stress-related deviations from normal blood cell counts and cortisol levels were detected. Minor erythema was eident at the sites of catheter placement, which was consistent with the presence of an indwelling catheter. The wearable, serial blood sampling device performed well and was tolerated by the animals without stress-related changes in blood analysis or behavioral observation. This study has demonstrated the potential significant benefit of the Fluispotter® device for serial blood sampling in veterinary and clinical settings. The samples collected are free from stress-related signatures in blood chemistry otherwise common to serial blood sampling protocols requiring repeated venipuncture. This device has valuable implications for use in routine preclinical pharmacology and toxicology studies.

Abstract
Dried blood samples (DBSs) have many advantages; yet, impediments have limited the clinical utilization of DBSs. We developed a novel volumetric sampling device that collects a precise volume of blood, which overcomes the heterogeneity and hematocrit issues commonly encountered in a traditional DBS card collection as well as allowing for more efficient extraction and processing procedures and thus, more efficient quantitation, by using the entire sample. We also provided a thorough procedure validation using this volumetric DBS collection device with an established quantitative proteomics analysis method, and then analyzed 1000 proteins using this approach in DBSs concomitantly with serum for future consideration of utility in clinical applications. Our data provide a first step in the establishment of a DBS database for the broad application of this sample type for widespread use in clinical proteomic and other analyses applications.
