Despite its significance, the structural complexity and diversity of glycans present significant challenges for mass spectrometry (MS)-based quantitative analysis. This review aims to provide an in-depth overview of recent advancements in labeling strategies for N-glycomics and O-glycomics, with a specific focus on enhancing the sensitivity, specificity, and throughput of MS analyses. We categorize these advancements into three major areas: (1) the development of isotopic/isobaric labeling techniques that significantly improve multiplexing capacity and throughput for glycan quantification; (2) novel methods that aid in the structural elucidation of complex glycans, particularly sialylated and fucosylated glycans; and (3) labeling techniques that enhance detection ionization efficiency, separation, and sensitivity for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)-MS and capillary electrophoresis (CE)-based glycan analysis. In addition, we highlight emerging trends in single-cell glycomics and bioinformatics tools that have the potential to revolutionize glycan quantification. These developments not only expand our understanding of glycan structures and functions but also open new avenues for biomarker discovery and therapeutic applications. Through detailed discussions of methodological advancements, this review underscores the critical role of derivatization methods in advancing glycan identification and quantification.</p>","PeriodicalId":224,"journal":{"name":"Proteomics","volume":" ","pages":"e202400057"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142708787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This cross-sectional analysis of a multi-ethnic cohort aimed to search for proteins potentially involved in the susceptibility to salt sensitivity, hypertension, and hypertension-related complications. The study included individuals enrolled in African Prospective Study on the Early Detection and Identification of Cardiovascular Disease and Hypertension (African-PREDICT), Flemish Study of the Environment, Genes and Health Outcomes (FLEMENGHO), Prospective Cohort Study in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus for Validation of Biomarkers (PROVALID)-Austria, and Urinary Proteomics Combined with Home Blood Pressure Telemonitoring for Health Care Reform Trial (UPRIGHT-HTM). Sequenced urinary peptides detectable in 70% of participants allowed the identification of parental proteins and were compared between Blacks and Whites. Of 513 urinary peptides, 300 had significantly different levels among healthy Black (n = 476) and White (n = 483) South Africans sharing the same environment. Analyses contrasting 582 Blacks versus 1731 Whites, and Sub-Saharan Blacks versus European Whites replicated the findings. COL4A1, COL4A2, FGA, PROC, MGP, MYOCD, FYXD2, and UMOD were identified as the most likely candidates underlying the racially different susceptibility to salt sensitivity, hypertension, and related complications. Enriched pathways included hemostasis, platelet activity, collagens, biology of the extracellular matrix, and protein digestion and absorption. Our study suggests that MGP and MYOCD being involved in cardiovascular function, FGA and PROC in coagulation, FYXD2 and UMOD in salt homeostasis, and COL4A1 and COL4A2 as major components of the glomerular basement membrane are among the many proteins potentially incriminated in the higher susceptibility of Blacks compared to Whites to salt sensitivity, hypertension, and its complication.

This viewpoint paper advocates for a multi-omics approach, integrating clinical symptom patterns, non-invasive biomarkers, imaging and invasive diagnostics to enhance diagnosis and treatment. Early detection of molecular changes, particularly in collagen turnover, is crucial for preventing disease progression. For instance, urinary proteomics can detect early molecular changes in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), heart failure (HF) and coronary artery disease (CAD), enabling proactive interventions and reducing the need for invasive procedures like renal biopsies. For example, urinary proteomic patterns can differentiate between glomerular and extraglomerular pathologies, aiding in the diagnosis of specific kidney diseases. Additionally, urinary peptides can predict CKD progression and HF development, offering a non-invasive alternative to traditional biomarkers like eGFR and NT-proBNP. The integration of multi-omics data with artificial intelligence (AI) holds promise for personalised treatment strategies, optimizing patient outcomes. This approach can also reduce healthcare costs by minimizing unnecessary invasive procedures and hospitalizations.

Therefore, understanding LDLR KO-mediated differential protein expression within the hippocampus is crucial for elucidating a role of LDLR in neurodegenerative disorders. In this study, we conducted first-time proteomic profiling of hippocampus tissue from LDLR KO mice using tandem mass tag (TMT)-based MS analysis. LDLR deficiency induces changes in proteins associated with the transport of diverse molecules, and activity of kinase and catalyst within the hippocampus. Additionally, significant alterations in the expression of components in the major synaptic pathways were found.
