    Abstract The introduction of mass spectrometry-based proteomics has revolutionized the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) field, with the description, characterization, and implication of HDL-associated proteins in an array of pathologies. However, acquiring robust, reproducible data is still a challenge in the quantitative assessment of HDL proteome. Data-independent acquisition (DIA) is a mass spectrometry methodology that allows the acquisition of reproducible data, but data analysis remains a challenge in the field. To date, there is no consensus on how to process DIA-derived data for HDL proteomics. Here, we developed a pipeline aiming to standardize HDL proteome quantification. We optimized instrument parameters and compared the performance of four freely available, user-friendly software tools (DIA-NN, EncyclopeDIA, MaxDIA, and Skyline) in processing DIA data. Importantly, pooled samples were used as quality controls throughout our experimental setup. A careful evaluation of precision, linearity, and detection limits, first using E. coli background for HDL proteomics and second using HDL proteome and synthetic peptides, was undertaken. Finally, as a proof of concept, we employed our optimized and automated pipeline to quantify the proteome of HDL and apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Our results show that determination of precision is key to confidently and consistently quantifying HDL proteins. Taking this precaution, any of the available software tested here would be appropriate for quantification of HDL proteome, although their performance varied considerably.

    Abstract Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are web-like structures of DNA coated with cytotoxic proteins and histones released by activated neutrophils through a process called NETosis. NETs release occurs through a sequence of highly organized events leading to chromatin expansion and rupture of nuclear and cellular membranes. In calcium ionophore-induced NETosis, the enzyme peptidylargine deiminase 4 (PAD4) mediates chromatin decondensation through histone citrullination, but the biochemical pathways involved in this process are not fully understood. Here we use live-imaging microscopy and proteomic studies of the neutrophil cellular fractions to investigate the early events in ionomycin-triggered NETosis. We found that before ionomycin-stimulated neutrophils release NETs, profound biochemical changes occur in and around their nucleus, such as, cytoskeleton reorganization, nuclear redistribution of actin-remodeling related proteins, and citrullination of actin-ligand and nuclear structural proteins. Ionomycin-stimulated neutrophils rapidly lose their characteristic polymorphic nucleus, and these changes are promptly communicated to the extracellular environment through the secretion of proteins related to immune response. Therefore, our findings revealed key biochemical mediators in the early process that subsequently culminates with nuclear and cell membranes rupture, and extracellular DNA release.

    Abstract The HDL proteome has been widely recognized as an important mediator of HDL function. While a variety of HDL isolation methods exist, their impact on the HDL proteome and its associated function remain largely unknown. Here, we compared three of the most common methods for HDL isolation, namely immunoaffinity (IA), density gradient ultracentrifugation (UC), and dextran-sulfate precipitation (DS), in terms of their effects on the HDL proteome and associated functionalities. We used state-of-the-art mass spectrometry to identify 171 proteins across all three isolation methods. IA-HDL contained higher levels of paraoxonase 1, apoB, clusterin, vitronectin, and fibronectin, while UC-HDL had higher levels of apoA2, apoC3, and α-1-antytrypsin. DS-HDL was enriched with apoA4 and complement proteins, while the apoA2 content was very low. Importantly, size-exclusion chromatography analysis showed that IA-HDL isolates contained subspecies in the size range above 12 nm, which were entirely absent in UC-HDL and DS-HDL isolates. Analysis of these subspecies indicated that they primarily consisted of apoA1, IGκC, apoC1, and clusterin. Functional analysis revealed that paraoxonase 1 activity was almost completely lost in IA-HDL, despite high paraoxonase content. We observed that the elution conditions, using 3M thiocyanate, during IA resulted in an almost complete loss of paraoxonase 1 activity. Notably, the cholesterol efflux capacity of UC-HDL and DS-HDL was significantly higher compared to IA-HDL. Together, our data clearly demonstrate that the isolation procedure has a substantial impact on the composition, subclass distribution, and functionality of HDL. In summary, our data show that the isolation procedure has a significant impact on the composition, subclass distribution and functionality of HDL. Our data can be helpful in the comparison, replication and analysis of proteomic datasets of HDL.

    Abstract Background: COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a global health threat and remains a challenge for modern medicine. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of COVID-19 is vital for proper disease and outbreak management. Our review aimed to analyze scientific articles published in the literature addressing the rapid tests available for COVID-19 diagnosis at the first year of the pandemic.
    Methods: A systematic review was performed from October 22 to 27, 2020, searching data published in PubMed and Google Scholar databases, using subject headings or keywords related to point of care and rapid test diagnostic for SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19.
    Results: The first survey identified 403 articles, but only 23 met the defined criteria for the systematic analysis. The sensitivity and specificity parameters were assessed in 19 studies, and the data suggested that there was lower sensitivity in the period 1 to 7 days after the emergence of symptoms (∼38%) higher sensitivity at 8 to 14 days (∼90%), and the highest at 15 to 39 days (∼98%). Accuracy was reported in six studies, reporting values above 50%. Only three studies reported a possible cross-reaction.
    Conclusions: Our findings indicate that the rapid tests used in the first year of the pandemic were tested with a small number of samples and not adequately validated. And the studies that described them were conducted with little scientific rigor.

    Abstract Leiomyomas are rare benign tumors that grow in the tunica media of smooth muscle cells. Leiomyomas occur most frequently in the uterus or gastrointestinal tract and only very rarely in the area of the cheek. This study reports on a rare case of a leiomyoma in the cheek of a 43-year-old woman, who presented with a well-circumscribed, asymptomatic, mobile swelling in the right cheek. This swelling was slightly purplish in color and measured approximately 4 cm × 3 cm. Surgical excision was the treatment of choice, and the diagnosis was based on histopathological and immunohistochemical stains, which were positive for actin and desmin and negative for AE1/AE3, CD34, and S100. The patient's follow-up, two years later, showed no recurrence, and she has been asymptomatic since the surgery.

    Abstract Maize (Zea mays L.) is the main cereal food of humans and animals in Brazil. In 2020 and 2021, a severe infestation of corn leafhoppers (Dalbulus maidis; Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) was observed in Santa Catarina State (south of Brazil). Subsequently, symptoms of chlorotic stripes limited in leaf veins started to appear in maize plants. Given the similarity of symptoms and the presence of high populations of corn leafhoppers in corn production areas, 30 plants in reproductive stage showing systemic symptoms were collected in summer and autumn from commercial fields of five municipalities in Santa Catarina: Campos Novos (27°23′18.0″S, 51°12′52.7″W), Lages (27°47′17.8″S, 50°18′16.9″W), Mafra (26°06′42″S, 49°48′25″W), Fraiburgo (27°01′36″S, 50°55′19″W), and Abelardo Luz (26°34′02″S, 52°20′02″W). The young leaves of these samples were used for molecular analyses targeting the species Maize ryado fino virus (Tymoviridae: Marafivirus). Total nucleic acids were extracted using TRIzol (Invitrogen, U.S.A.), following the manufacturer’s instructions. These were used as a template for cDNA synthesis with the enzyme MMLV-RT (Promega, U.S.A.), following the manufacturer’s instructions. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed using GoTaq DNA polymerase (Promega) and MRFV-09/MRFV-10 primers (Hammond et al. 1997). All PCR products were subjected to electrophoresis in 1% agarose gel and were visualized under ultraviolet light. Twenty-eight of the 30 tested plants were mayze rayado fino virus (MRFV)-positive, showing a fragment with an expected size of ∼633 bp. To confirm our results, all MRFV-positive samples were sent for sequencing (GenBank accession nos. OM763708 to OM763710 and ON730784 to ON730806) and submitted to BLASTn search (https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi), resulting in identities ranging from 96.21 to 99.21% with the isolate Brazil 26 of MRFV, which was detected in 2005 in São Paulo, Brazil (GenBank accession no. AF186178) (Hammond and Bedendo 2005). A second set of primers was used to validate the first PCR, confirming MRFV infection (data not shown). Moreover, whitish streaks and leaf reddening were observed on the leaves of some plants; therefore, the identification for phytoplasmas (‘Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris’) and spiroplasmas (Spiroplasma kunkelii) from the corn stunt complex was performed. For this, previously extracted nucleic acids from each sample were used as templates for a multiplex PCR using the primers CSSR6/CSSF2 and R16F2n/R16R2 (Barros et al. 2001; Gundersen and Lee 1996). Two plants were infected with only spiroplasma, 17 samples were infected with spiroplasma and MRFV, and three samples were infected by these three pathogens. An increasing incidence of corn stunt has been observed in commercial fields in Santa Catarina in recent years. Mollicutes are commonly found and mostly studied as causal agents of corn stunt disease. In contrast, despite being present in Brazil since the 1970s, the virus is less studied because its contribution to the corn stunt complex is still unknown (Hammond and Bedendo 2001). In this report, indications that the virus is expanding to different regions in southern Brazil were observed, which raises an opportunity for further evaluation and its consideration in monitoring programs. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of MRFV in Santa Catarina, Brazil.

    Abstract Background: Besides the well-accepted role in lipid metabolism, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) also seems to participate in host immune response against infectious diseases.
    Objective: We used a quantitative proteomic approach to test the hypothesis that alterations in HDL proteome associate with severity of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
    Methods: Based on clinical criteria, subjects (n=41) diagnosed with COVID-19 were divided into two groups: a group of subjects presenting mild symptoms and a second group displaying severe symptoms and requiring hospitalization. Using a proteomic approach, we quantified the levels of 29 proteins in HDL particles derived from these subjects.
    Results: We showed that the levels of serum amyloid A 1 and 2 (SAA1 and SAA2, respectively), pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B (SFTPB), apolipoprotein F (APOF), and inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H4 (ITIH4) were increased by more than 50% in hospitalized patients, independently of sex, HDL-C or triglycerides when comparing with subjects presenting only mild symptoms. Altered HDL proteins were able to classify COVID-19 subjects according to the severity of the disease (error rate 4.9%). Moreover, apolipoprotein M (APOM) in HDL was inversely associated with odds of death due to COVID-19 complications (odds ratio [OR] per 1-SD increase in APOM was 0.27, with 95% confidence interval [CI] of 0.07 to 0.72, P=0.007).
    Conclusion: Our results point to a profound inflammatory remodeling of HDL proteome tracking with severity of COVID-19 infection. They also raise the possibility that HDL particles could play an important role in infectious diseases.
