Multiplexed peptide analysis for kinetic measurements of major human apolipoproteins by LC/MS/MS
Résumé
A multiplexed assay was developed by MS to analyze, in a single run, six major human Apos involved in lipoprotein metabolism: ApoA-I, ApoA-II, ApoB100, ApoC-II, ApoC-III, and ApoE. This method was validated in vivo in six subjects who received a 14 h constant infusion of [5,5,5-H-2(3)] L-leucine at 10 mu M/kg/h. Plasma lipoprotein fractions were isolated from collected blood samples and were digested with trypsin. Proteotypic peptides were subsequently analyzed by LC/MS/MS. Enrichment measurement data were compared with those obtained by the standard method using GC/MS. The required time to obtain the LC/MS/MS data was less than that needed for GC/MS. The enrichments from both methods were correlated for ApoA-I (r = 0.994; P < 0.0001) and ApoB100 (r = 0.999; P < 0.0001), and the Bland-Altman plot confirmed the similarity of the two methods. Intra-and inter-assay variability calculated for the six Apos of interest did not exceed 10.7 and 12.5%, respectively, and kinetic parameters were similar and/or in agreement with previously reported data. Therefore, LC/MS/MS can be considered as a useful tool for human Apo kinetic studies using stable isotopes.
