    Abstract Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a form of small vessel disease characterised by the progressive deposition of amyloid β protein in the cerebral vasculature, inducing symptoms including cognitive impairment and cerebral haemorrhages. Due to their accessibility and homogeneous disease phenotypes, animal models are advantageous platforms to study diseases like CAA. Untargeted proteomics studies of CAA rat models (e.g. rTg-DI) and CAA patients provide opportunities for the identification of novel biomarkers of CAA. We performed untargeted, data-independent acquisition proteomic shotgun analyses on the cerebrospinal fluid of rTg-DI rats and wild-type (WT) littermates. Rodents were analysed at 3 months (n = 6/10), 6 months (n = 8/8), and 12 months (n = 10/10) for rTg-DI and WT respectively. For humans, proteomic analyses were performed on CSF of sporadic CAA patients (sCAA) and control participants (n = 39/28). We show recurring patterns of differentially expressed (mostly increased) proteins in the rTg-DI rats compared to wild type rats, especially of proteases of the cathepsin protein family (CTSB, CTSD, CTSS), and their main inhibitor (CST3). In sCAA patients, decreased levels of synaptic proteins (e.g. including VGF, NPTX1, NRXN2) and several members of the granin family (SCG1, SCG2, SCG3, SCG5) compared to controls were discovered. Additionally, several serine protease inhibitors of the SERPIN protein family (including SERPINA3, SERPINC1 and SERPING1) were differentially expressed compared to controls. Fifteen proteins were significantly altered in both rTg-DI rats and sCAA patients, including (amongst others) SCG5 and SERPING1. These results identify specific groups of proteins likely involved in, or affected by, pathophysiological processes involved in CAA pathology such as protease and synapse function of rTg-DI rat models and sCAA patients, and may serve as candidate biomarkers for sCAA.

    Abstract Objectives: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy characterized by a monoclonal expansion of plasma cells that secrete a characteristic M-protein. This M-protein is crucial for diagnosis and monitoring of MM in the blood of patients. Recent evidence has emerged suggesting that N-glycosylation of the M-protein variable (Fab) region contributes to M-protein pathogenicity, and that it is a risk factor for disease progression of plasma cell disorders. Current methodologies lack the specificity to provide a site-specific glycoprofile of the Fab regions of M-proteins. Here, we introduce a novel glycoproteogenomics method that allows detailed M-protein glycoprofiling by integrating patient specific Fab region sequences (genomics) with glycoprofiling by glycoproteomics.
    Methods: Glycoproteogenomics was used for the detailed analysis of
    Results: Genomic analysis uncovered a more than two-fold increase in the Fab Light Chain N-glycosylation of M-proteins of patients with Multiple Myeloma compared to Fab Light Chain N-glycosylation of polyclonal antibodies from healthy individuals. Subsequent glycoproteogenomics analysis of 41 patients enrolled in the IFM 2009 clinical trial revealed that the majority of the Fab N-glycosylation sites were fully occupied with complex type glycans, distinguishable from Fc region glycans due to high levels of sialylation, fucosylation and bisecting structures.
    Conclusions: Together, glycoproteogenomics is a powerful tool to study

    Abstract Introduction: The human plasma glycoproteome holds enormous potential to identify personalized biomarkers for diagnostics. Glycoproteomics has matured into a technology for plasma N-glycoproteome analysis but further evolution towards clinical applications depends on the clinical validity and understanding of protein- and site-specific glycosylation changes in disease.
    Objectives: Here, we exploited the uniqueness of a patient cohort of genetic defects in well-defined glycosylation pathways to assess the clinical applicability of plasma N-glycoproteomics.
    Methods: Comparative glycoproteomics was performed of blood plasma from 40 controls and 74 patients with 13 different genetic diseases that impact the protein N-glycosylation pathway. Baseline glycosylation in healthy individuals was compared to reference glycome and intact transferrin protein mass spectrometry data. Use of glycoproteomics data for biomarker discovery and sample stratification was evaluated by multivariate chemometrics and supervised machine learning. Clinical relevance of site-specific glycosylation changes were evaluated in the context of genetic defects that lead to distinct accumulation or loss of specific glycans. Integrated analysis of site-specific glycoproteome changes in disease was performed using chord diagrams and correlated with intact transferrin protein mass spectrometry data.
    Results: Glycoproteomics identified 191 unique glycoforms from 58 unique peptide sequences of 34 plasma glycoproteins that span over 3 magnitudes of abundance in plasma. Chemometrics identified high-specificity biomarker signatures for each of the individual genetic defects with better stratification performance than the current diagnostic standard method. Bioinformatic analyses revealed site-specific glycosylation differences that could be explained by underlying glycobiology and protein-intrinsic factors.
    Conclusion: Our work illustrates the strong potential of plasma glycoproteomics to significantly increase specificity of glycoprotein biomarkers with direct insights in site-specific glycosylation changes to better understand the glycobiological mechanisms underlying human disease.

    Abstract Objectives: Minimal residual disease status in multiple myeloma is an important prognostic biomarker. Recently, personalized blood-based targeted mass spectrometry (MS-MRD) was shown to provide a sensitive and minimally invasive alternative to measure minimal residual disease. However, quantification of MS-MRD requires a unique calibrator for each patient. The use of patient-specific stable isotope labelled (SIL) peptides is relatively costly and time-consuming, thus hindering clinical implementation. Here, we introduce a simplification of MS-MRD by using an off-the-shelf calibrator.
    Methods: SILuMAB-based MS-MRD was performed by spiking a monoclonal stable isotope labeled IgG, SILuMAB-K1, in the patient serum. The abundance of both M-protein-specific peptides and SILuMAB-specific peptides were monitored by mass spectrometry. The relative ratio between M-protein peptides and SILuMAB peptides allowed for M-protein quantification. We assessed linearity, sensitivity and reproducibility of SILuMAB-based MS-MRD in longitudinally collected sera from the IFM-2009 clinical trial.
    Results: A linear dynamic range was achieved of over 5 log scales, allowing for M-protein quantification down to 0.001 g/L. The inter-assay CV of SILuMAB-based MS-MRD was on average 11 %. Excellent concordance between SIL- and SILuMAB-based MS-MRD was shown (R
    Conclusions: Compared to SIL peptides, SILuMAB-based MS-MRD improves the reproducibility, turn-around-times and cost-efficacy of MS-MRD without diminishing its sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, SILuMAB can be used as a MS-MRD quality control tool to monitor sample preparation efficacy and assay performance.

    Abstract Fasting proinsulin levels may serve as a marker of β-cell dysfunction and predict type 2 diabetes (T2D) development. Kidneys have been found to be a major site for the degradation of proinsulin. We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of proinsulin for the risk of incident T2D added to a base model of clinical predictors and examined potential effect modification by variables related to kidney function. Proinsulin was measured in plasma with U-PLEX platform using ELISA immunoassay. We included 5001 participants without T2D at baseline and during a median follow up of 7.2 years; 271 participants developed T2D. Higher levels of proinsulin were associated with increased risk of T2D independent of glucose, insulin, C-peptide, and other clinical factors (hazard ratio (HR): 1.28; per 1 SD increase 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.08-1.52). Harrell's C-index for the Framingham offspring risk score was improved with the addition of proinsulin (

    Abstract Mechanisms of infection and pathogenesis have predominantly been studied based on differential gene or protein expression. Less is known about posttranslational modifications, which are essential for protein functional diversity. We applied an innovative glycoproteomics method to study the systemic proteome-wide glycosylation in response to infection. The protein site-specific glycosylation was characterized in plasma derived from well-defined controls and patients. We found 3862 unique features, of which we identified 463 distinct intact glycopeptides, that could be mapped to more than 30 different proteins. Statistical analyses were used to derive a glycopeptide signature that enabled significant differentiation between patients with a bacterial or viral infection. Furthermore, supported by a machine learning algorithm, we demonstrated the ability to identify the causative pathogens based on the distinctive host blood plasma glycopeptide signatures. These results illustrate that glycoproteomics holds enormous potential as an innovative approach to improve the interpretation of relevant biological changes in response to infection.

    Abstract The aim of our study was to investigate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) tryptic peptide profiles as potential diagnostic biomarkers for the discrimination of parkinsonian disorders. CSF samples were collected from individuals with parkinsonism, who had an uncertain diagnosis at the time of inclusion and who were followed for up to 12 years in a longitudinal study. We performed shotgun proteomics to identify tryptic peptides in CSF of Parkinson's disease (PD, n = 10), multiple system atrophy patients (MSA, n = 5) and non-neurological controls (n = 10). We validated tryptic peptides with differential levels between PD and MSA using a newly developed selected reaction monitoring (SRM) assay in CSF of PD (n = 46), atypical parkinsonism patients (AP; MSA, n = 17; Progressive supranuclear palsy; n = 8) and non-neurological controls (n = 39). We identified 191 tryptic peptides that differed significantly between PD and MSA, of which 34 met our criteria for SRM development. For 14/34 peptides we confirmed differences between PD and AP. These tryptic peptides discriminated PD from AP with moderate-to-high accuracy. Random forest modelling including tryptic peptides plus either clinical assessments or other CSF parameters (neurofilament light chain, phosphorylated tau protein) and age improved the discrimination of PD vs. AP. Our results show that the discovery of tryptic peptides by untargeted and subsequent validation by targeted proteomics is a suitable strategy to identify potential CSF biomarkers for PD versus AP. Furthermore, the tryptic peptides, and corresponding proteins, that we identified as differential biomarkers may increase our current knowledge about the disease-specific pathophysiological mechanisms of parkinsonism.

    Abstract Background: Minimal residual disease (MRD) status assessed on bone marrow aspirates is a major prognostic biomarker in multiple myeloma (MM). In this study we evaluated blood-based targeted mass spectrometry (MS-MRD) as a sensitive, minimally invasive alternative to measure MM disease activity.
    Methods: Therapy response of 41 MM patients in the IFM-2009 clinical trial (NCT01191060) was assessed with MS-MRD on frozen sera and compared to routine state-of-the-art monoclonal protein (M-protein) diagnostics and next-generation sequencing (NGS-MRD) at 2 time points.
    Results: In all 41 patients we were able to identify clonotypic M-protein-specific peptides and perform serum-based MS-MRD measurements. MS-MRD is significantly more sensitive to detect M-protein compared to either electrophoretic M-protein diagnostics or serum free light chain analysis. The concordance between NGS-MRD and MS-MRD status in 81 paired bone marrow/sera samples was 79%. The 50% progression-free survival (PFS) was identical (49 months) for patients who were either NGS-positive or MS-positive directly after maintenance treatment. The 50% PFS was 69 and 89 months for NGS-negative and MS-negative patients, respectively. The longest 50% PFS (96 months) was observed in patients who were MRD-negative for both methods. MS-MRD relapse during maintenance treatment was significantly correlated to poor PFS (P < 0.0001).
    Conclusions: Our data indicate proof-of-principle that MS-MRD evaluation in blood is a feasible, patient friendly alternative to NGS-MRD assessed on bone marrow. Clinical validation of the prognostic value of MS-MRD and its complementary value in MRD-evaluation of patients with MM is warranted in an independent larger cohort.

    Abstract Background: Due to improved treatment, more patients with multiple myeloma (MM) reach a state of minimal residual disease (MRD). Different strategies for MM MRD monitoring include flow cytometry, allele-specific oligonucleotide-quantitative PCR, next-generation sequencing, and mass spectrometry (MS). The last 3 methods rely on the presence and the stability of a unique immunoglobulin fingerprint derived from the clonal plasma cell population. For MS-MRD monitoring it is imperative that MS-compatible clonotypic M-protein peptides are identified. To support implementation of molecular MRD techniques, we studied the presence and stability of these clonotypic features in the CoMMpass database.
    Methods: An analysis pipeline based on MiXCR and HIGH-VQUEST was constructed to identify clonal molecular fingerprints and their clonotypic peptides based on transcriptomic datasets. To determine the stability of the clonal fingerprints, we compared the clonal fingerprints during disease progression for each patient.
    Results: The analysis pipeline to establish the clonal fingerprint and MS-suitable clonotypic peptides was successfully validated in MM cell lines. In a cohort of 609 patients with MM, we demonstrated that the most abundant clone harbored a unique clonal molecular fingerprint and that multiple unique clonotypic peptides compatible with MS measurements could be identified for all patients. Furthermore, the clonal immunoglobulin gene fingerprints of both the light and heavy chain remained stable during MM disease progression.
    Conclusions: Our data support the use of the clonal immunoglobulin gene fingerprints in patients with MM as a suitable MRD target for MS-MRD analyses.

    Abstract Objective: Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a peptide hormone synthesized by several organs and regulates, among others, energy homeostasis. In obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes (T2D), higher circulating FGF21 concentrations have been found. Temporal analyses in murine studies demonstrate that FGF21 increases before insulin resistance occurs. The current study aims to investigate in time-to-event analyses whether FGF21 may be an early biomarker in the development of T2D.
    Research design and methods: Circulating FGF21 was measured using an immunoassay of the Mesoscale U-PLEX assay platform. The study outcome was incident T2D. Associations of circulating FGF21 concentration with T2D were quantified using Cox proportional hazards models with adjustments for potential confounders.
    Results: We included 5244 participants aged 52 ± 12 years, of whom 50% were male. Median [interquartile range] circulating FGF21 concentration was 860 [525-1329] pg/mL. During 7.3 [6.1-7.7] years of follow-up, 299 (5.7%) participants developed T2D. In fully adjusted analyses, higher circulating FGF21 concentration was associated with an increased risk of incident T2D (hazard ratio per doubling: 1.26 [95% CI, 1.06-1.51]; P = 0.008), with effect modification by fasting plasma glucose, consistent with strengthening of the association at lower fasting glucose (interaction coefficient: -0.12; P = 0.022).
    Conclusion: Higher circulating FGF21 concentrations are independently associated with an increased risk of incident T2D in participants with a low fasting plasma glucose, making circulating FGF21 concentration a potential early biomarker for type 2 diabetes.
