Although it has been demonstrated that RIPC affects gene expression, the proteomic response to RIPC has not been determined. This study aimed to examine RIPC induced changes in the plasma proteome. Five healthy adult volunteers had 4 cycles of 5 min ischemia alternating with 5 min reperfusion of the forearm. Blood samples were taken from the ipsilateral arm prior to first ischaemia, immediately after each episode of ischemia as well as, at 15 min and 24 h after the last episode of ischemia. Plasma samples from five individuals were analysed using two complementary techniques. Individual samples were analysed using 2Dimensional Difference in gel electrophoresis (2D DIGE) and mass spectrometry (MS). Pooled samples for each of the time-points underwent trypsin digestion and peptides generated were analysed in triplicate using Liquid Chromatography and MS (LC-MS). Six proteins changed in response to RIPC using 2D DIGE analysis, while 48 proteins were found to be differentially regulated using LC-MS.

  • Apolipoprotein H, an Acute Phase Protein, a Performing Tool for Ultra-Sensitive Detection and Isolation of Microorganisms from Different Origins
    2 Apolipoprotein H, an Acute Phase Protein, a Performing Tool for Ultra-Sensitive Detection and Isolation of Microorganisms from Different Origins Ilias Stefas1, Gregor Dubois2, Sylvia Tigrett1, Estelle Lucarz1 and Francisco Veas2 1ApoH-Technologies Faculty of Pharmacy, University Montpellier 1, Av Charles Flahault, Montpellier 2Comparative Molecular Immuno-Physiopathology Lab. UMR-MD3 Faculty of Pharmacy, University Montpellier 1, Av Charles Flahault, Montpellier France 1. Introduction Apolipoprotein H (ApoH), also known as beta2-glycoprotein I (ß2-GPI), is a plasma glycoprotein of 50 kDa. ApoH is present in human plasma at a concentration of between 150 and 300 mg/ml (Bouma et al., 1999). In blood, ApoH circulate in free conformations or bound to lipoproteins: chylomicrons, very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). In addition, ApoH has a high affinity for triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. The amount of ApoH associated with plasma lipoproteins in healthy individuals varies according to the authors from 4 to 13% (Gambino et al., 1999a) up to about 40% (Polz & Kostner, 1979). ApoH is able to activate lipoprotein lipases (Lee et al., 1983). ApoH was isolated from the fraction of plasma lipoproteins, and described for the first time in 1961 by H. Schultze E (Schultze, 1961). In a lesser extent, ApoH is also associated to ß2-globulin fraction. ApoH is expressed in human liver, in intestinal cells and tissues (Averna et al., 1997). In rats, other sites of synthesis in low concentrations were identified as the kidney, small intestine, brain, cardiomyocytes of the heart, and at even lower in the spleen, stomach and prostate (Ragusa et al., 2006).

  • Pathophysiological Mechanisms in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
    Review Pathophysiological mechanisms in antiphospholipid syndrome Antiphospholipid syndrome is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with thrombosis and recurrent fetal loss in the setting of detectable antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies. The major antigenic target has been identified as b2-glycoprotein I (b2GPI), which mediates binding of aPL antibodies to target cells including endothelial cells, monocytes, platelets and trophoblasts, leading to prothrombotic and proinflammatory changes that ultimately result in thrombosis and fetal loss. This article summarizes recent insights into the role of b2GPI in normal hemostasis, interactions between aPL antibodies, b2GPI and cell- surface molecules, molecular prothrombotic and proinflammatory changes induced by aPL antibodies and pathogenic changes leading to fetal loss in antiphospholipid syndrome. New directions in therapy using these insights are examined. 1 n n Brock E Harper , KEYWORDS: annexin anti-b2-glycoprotein I antibody antiphospholipid antibodies n antiphospholipid syndrome n endothelial cell activation n pathogenesis n platelet Rohan Willis1 activation n pregnancy loss n thrombosis n treatment & Silvia S Pierangeli†1 1Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Rheumatology, University Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic and use of hormone-replacement therapy or oral of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, autoimmune disease characterized by recurrent contraceptives [9].

  • A Novel Mechanism of Thrombosis in Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome
    Vlachoyiannopoulos PG, Routsias JG. Ένας νέος μηχανισμός για την θρόμβωση στο σύνδρομο αντιφωσφολιπιδίων. J Autoimmun. 2010, 35(3):248-55. Antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune thrombophilia mediated by autoantibodies directed against phospholipid‐binding plasma proteins, mainly β2 Glycoprotein I (β2GPI)‐ a plasma apolipoprotein and prothrombin (PT). A subgroup of these antibodies termed "Lupus Anticoagulant" (LA) elongate in vitro the clotting times, this elongation not corrected by adding normal plasma in the detection system. The exact mechanism by which these autoantibodies induce thrombosis is not well understood. Resistance to natural anticoagulants such as protein C, impaired fibrinolysis, activation of endothelial cells to a pro‐coagulant phenotype and activation of platelets, are among the mechanisms partially supported by experimental evidence. Artificially dimerized β2GPI binds tightly to platelet membrane activating them. We search for mechanisms of natural dimerization of β2GPI by proteins of the platelet membranes and found that platelet factor 4 (PF4) assembled in homotetramers binds two molecules of β2GPI and this complex is recognized by anti‐β2GPI antibodies, the whole complexes being thrombogenic in terms of activating platelets as confirmed by p38MAP kinase phosphorylation and thromboxane B2 production. Of note PF4/heparin complexes are also immunogenic triggering the production of anti‐PF4/heparin antibodies which activate also platelets (the so‐called "heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis syndrome", HITT). The anti‐β2GPI antibodies activate platelets by their F(ab)2, while the anti‐PF4/heparin by their Fc fragments. Thus PF4 is a common denominator in the pathogenesis of APS and HITT which share also clinical characteristics such as thrombocytopenia and thrombosis.

  • Serum Acute Phase Reactants Hallmark Healthy Individuals at Risk For
    Borlak et al. Genome Medicine 2013, 5:86 http://genomemedicine.com/content/5/9/86 RESEARCH Open Access Serum acute phase reactants hallmark healthy individuals at risk for acetaminophen-induced liver injury Jürgen Borlak1*, Bijon Chatterji1, Kishor B Londhe1 and Paul B Watkins2 Abstract Background: Acetaminophen (APAP) is a commonly used analgesic. However, its use is associated with drug-induced liver injury (DILI). It is a prominent cause of acute liver failure, with APAP hepatotoxicity far exceeding other causes of acute liver failure in the United States. In order to improve its safe use this study aimed to identify individuals at risk for DILI prior to drug treatment by searching for non-genetic serum markers in healthy subjects susceptible to APAP-induced liver injury (AILI). Methods: Healthy volunteers (n = 36) received either placebo or acetaminophen at the maximum daily dose of 4 g for 7 days. Blood samples were taken prior to and after APAP treatment. Serum proteomic profiling was done by 2D SDS-PAGE and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry. Additionally, the proteins C-reactive protein, haptoglobin and hemopexin were studied by quantitative immunoassays. Results: One-third of study subjects presented more than four-fold increased alanine transaminase activity to evidence liver injury, while serum proteomics informed on 20 proteins as significantly regulated. These function primarily in acute phase and immune response. Pre-treatment associations included C-reactive protein, haptoglobin isoforms and retinol binding protein being up to six-fold higher in AILI susceptible individuals, whereas alpha1-antitrypsin, serum amyloid A, kininogen and transtyretin were regulated by nearly five-fold in AILI responders.

  • The Application of Multiple Reaction Monitoring and Multi-Analyte
    Yassine et al. Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, 13:8 http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/8 RESEARCH Open Access The application of multiple reaction monitoring and multi-analyte profiling to HDL proteins Hussein N Yassine1*, Angela M Jackson2, Chad R Borges3, Dean Billheimer4, Hyunwook Koh1, Derek Smith3, Peter Reaven5, Serrine S Lau6 and Christoph H Borchers2,7 Abstract Background: HDL carries a rich protein cargo and examining HDL protein composition promises to improve our understanding of its functions. Conventional mass spectrometry methods can be lengthy and difficult to extend to large populations. In addition, without prior enrichment of the sample, the ability of these methods to detect low abundance proteins is limited. Our objective was to develop a high-throughput approach to examine HDL protein composition applicable to diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods: We optimized two multiplexed assays to examine HDL proteins using a quantitative immunoassay (Multi-Analyte Profiling- MAP) and mass spectrometric-based quantitative proteomics (Multiple Reaction Monitoring-MRM). We screened HDL proteins using human xMAP (90 protein panel) and MRM (56 protein panel). We extended the application of these two methods to HDL isolated from a group of participants with diabetes and prior cardiovascular events and a group of non-diabetic controls. Results: We were able to quantitate 69 HDL proteins using MAP and 32 proteins using MRM. For several common proteins, the use of MRM and MAP was highly correlated (p < 0.01). Using MAP, several low abundance proteins implicated in atherosclerosis and inflammation were found on HDL. On the other hand, MRM allowed the examination of several HDL proteins not available by MAP.
