Protein quantification of an Alzheimer’s biomarker via isotope dilution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

  • Neurodegenerative diseases are one of the major problems for our ageing society. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as the most common neurodegenerative disorder affects over 46.8 million people worldwide and the number will increase as the population ages. The diagnosis of AD is challenging and only half of the patients are identified yet and often only in late stages. One reason is that existing assays for identification and quantification of AD biomarkers lack accuracy and are poorly comparable. This study is part of the EU project “ReMiND” aiming to develop accurate, reliable and traceable methods for the detection and quantification of known and suspected AD biomarkers. Our target is the tau protein, as brain load and distribution of tau is highly correlated with the clinical progression of AD. We intend to develop a measurement method for the accurate quantification of tau by means of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS).

Our target is the tau protein, as brain load and distribution of tau is highly correlated with the clinical progression of AD. We intend to develop a measurement method for the accurate quantification of tau by means of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). ICP-MS is a powerful method for the matrix independent quantitative analysis of target elements. Developed for the use in inorganic trace analysis, ICP-MS is nowadays emerging as a valuable tool for bioanalytical questions. Especially the use of ICP-MS for quantitative proteomics by measuring heteroatoms is highly promising, considering that established quantification methods like organic mass spectrometry depend on the existence of matched protein and peptide standards or labelling of the target protein. In this work, we applied isotope dilution analysis (IDA) using ICP-MS to quantify proteins of known stoichiometry via their sulphur content. Sulphur is present in two amino acids, cysteine and methionine, and hence is omnipresent in nearly all proteins. A NIST standard bovine serum albumin (BSA) was quantified using sulfur IDA to optimize sample preparation and method parameters. Our goal is to employ the developed method in a proof of concept study for the quantification of the AD biomarker tau extracted from brains of a mouse model for AD.zeige mehrzeige weniger
