Definitions
- AD Alzheimer's disease
- MCI Mild cognitive impairment
- AD Alzheimer's disease
- Alzheimer's disease is characterized by two major pathologic observations in the brain: neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and beta-amyloid plaques, comprised predominantly of an aggregate of fragments known as A ⁇ peptides.
- NFT neurofibrillary tangles
- a ⁇ peptides A ⁇ peptides
- Individuals with AD exhibit characteristic beta-amyloid deposits in the brain (beta- amyloid plaques) and in cerebral blood vessels (beta-amyloid angiopathy) as well as neurofibrillary tangles.
- Neurofibrillary tangles occur not only in Alzheimer's disease but also in other dementia-inducing disorders.
- On autopsy presently the only definitive method of diagnosing AD, large numbers of these lesions are generally found in areas of the human brain important for memory and cognition.
- AD markers are assumed to be in very low abundance because they are shed from small volumes of diseased tissue and are expected to be rapidly cleared and metabolized.
- researchers have avoided studying blood because the blood proteome is dominated by, and complicated by, resident proteins such as albumin that can exist at a concentration many millions of times greater than the target low abundance biomarker. For this reason, researchers have focused on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) as the target fluid for AD biomarkers (see Zhang et al., J. Alzheimer's Disease (2005) 8:377-3386).
- CSF cerebrospinal fluid
- the CSF approach has limited clinical application to routine screening.
- the blood brain vascular circulation perfuses AD lesions with a higher efficiency, particularly in the case for amyloid angiopathy.

- the inventive biomarkers can be detected using mass spectrometry (MS).
- MS mass spectrometry
- MS/MS tandem mass spectrometry
- Most such assays use electrospray ionization followed by two stages of mass selection: a first stage (MSl) selecting the mass of the intact analyte (parent ion) and, after fragmentation of the parent by collision with gas atoms, a second stage (MS2) selecting a specific fragment of the parent, collectively generating a selected reaction monitoring assay.
- collision-induced dissociation is used to generate a set of fragments from a specific peptide ion.
- the fragmentation process primarily gives rise to cleavage products that break along peptide bonds. Because of the simplicity in fragmentation, the observed fragment masses can be compared to a database of predicted masses for known peptide sequences.

- SEQUEST peptide fragment fingerprinting
- MASCOT MASCOT
- OMSSA OMSSA

- MS/MS MS/MS
- Such an approach can be performed in multiplex so that multiple ions can be measured at once, providing an antibody- free method for analyte measurement. See, e.g. Andersen et al, Molecular & Cellular Proteomics, 5.4: 573- 588 (2006); Whiteaker et al., J. Proteome Res. 6(10): 3962-75 (2007). Both publications are incorporated herein by reference.

Using this approach, practitioners obtain peptide fragments, usually by trypsin digest, and generate mass spectrograms of the fragments, which are then compared to a database, such as SEQUEST, for protein identification.
- a database such as SEQUEST
- the inventive biomarkers can be detected using immuno- mass spectrometry. See, e.g., Liotta L et al. J Clin Invest., 116(l):26-30 (2006), Nedelkov, Expert Rev. Proteomics, 3(6): 631-640 (2006), which are incorporated herein by reference.
- Immuno-mass spectrometry provides a means for rapidly determining the exact size and identity of a peptide biomarker isoform present within a patient sample.
- a drop of patient's blood, serum or plasma can be applied to a high density matrix of microcolumns or microwells filled with a composite substratum containing immobilized polyclonal antibodies, directed against the peptide marker. All isoforms of the peptide that contain the epitope are captured. The captured population of analytes including the analyte fragments are eluted and analyzed directly by a mass spectrometer such as MALDI-TOF MS. The presence of the specific peptide biomarker at its exact mass/charge (m/z) location can be used as a diagnostic test result. The analysis can be performed rapidly by simple software that determines if a series of ion peaks are present at defined m/z locations.
- inventive biomarkers can be detected using standard immunoassay-based approaches whereby fragment specific antibodies are used to measure and record the presence of the diagnostic fragments. See, e.g., Naya et al. "Evaluation of precursor prostate-specific antigen isoform ratios in the detection of prostate cancer.” Urol Oncol. 23(1):16-21 (2005).

- the molecular sieve portion or the analyte binding portion or both comprise a cross-linked region having modified porosity, or pore dimensions sufficient to exclude high molecular weight molecules.
- the LMW peptides are digested prior to detection, so as to reduce the size of the peptides.
- Such digestion can be carried out using standard methods well known in the field.
- Exemplary treatments include but are not limited to, enzymatic and chemical treatments. Such treatments can yield partial as well as complete digestions.

- the abundance of the biomarker is an indicator of the neurological condition. If the biomarker is "less abundant” in the control, then the biomarker is present in the tested sample in a significantly less amount than in the control sample. If the biomarker is "more abundant” than the control, then the biomarker is present in the tested sample in a significantly greater amount than in the control sample.

- a community-based cohort of 103 participants was recruited for the study. Of the original 75 MCI subjects, 20 have been censored from the study for various reasons not related to dementia, leaving 55 which are currently being followed. Seventeen of these have become demented over a 0.5 to 4.1 -year observation period (15% annual conversion rate) based upon on the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) Sum of Boxes score >3.5 as documented by NINCDS-ADRDA criteria.
- CDR Clinical Dementia Rating
- MCI-MCDI MCI-multiple domain impairment
- All cognitive assessments were conducted within 4 weeks of the MR evaluation by the same team of neuropsychologists with re-evaluations at approximately 6 month intervals. A total of 476 cognitive tests have been performed with some subjects having as many as 9 evaluations.
- the battery of cognitive tests included a videotaped CDR plus the following: Logical Memory I, II, North American Adult Reading Test, Word Fluency:Phonetic and Semantic, Wisconsin Card Sorting Test, Trail Making Test A&B, Boston Naming Test, Draw-A-Clock, Depression Features Battery Version II, and Geriatric Depression Scale.
- Results of radiologic and cognitive assessments were reviewed bimonthly. On the rare occasion if cognitive testing and neurologic examination indicates development of a disorder other than AD, e.g. frontotemporal dementia, progressive supranuclear palsy, primary progressive aphasia, the subject was removed from the study. Results of the neuropsychological testing were noted as abnormal if below > 1.5 standard deviation (SD) on normative data based on age and education. The diagnosis of dementia is based on a clinical judgment (consensus conference), NINCDS-ADRDA criteria, and a Sum of Boxes (SOB) on the CDR >3.5.(107)
- SD standard deviation
- SOB Sum of Boxes
- CDR Memory 0, with deference to clinical judgment. Some occasional abnormalities in neuropsychological tests. Logical memory consistently normal
- UNSTABLE NORMAL Sum of Boxes ⁇ 1 but variable. Some indication of CDR memory impairment. Trend upward or downward based on clinical judgment. Neuropsychological testing shows moderate abnormalities with improvement or decline. Clinical judgment.
- U-MCI UNSTABLE MCI
- Table 7 gives the current NP status of the cohorts using the five stage classification as derived from entrance classification (normal or MCI). Note progressive movement of normal to MCI and 10 MCI cases moving to U-Normal and Normal, 25 of the MCI cases have moved to U-MCI (8) and PMCI (17). The human experiment was designed to determine MR and proteomic changes during dementia development.
- Eluted proteins from PrepCell were further passed through detergent clean-up micro kit ProteoSpin (Norgen, Canada) to remove the SDS in the elution buffer that could interfere with mass spectrometry analysis.
- the cleaned proteins were reduced by 10 mM DTT, alkylated by 50 mM iodoacetamide, and digested by trypsin (from Promega) at 37 0 C overnight. Tryptic peptides were further purified by Sep-Pak cartridges (Waters, MA) and analyzed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography nanospray tandem mass spectrometry using a linear ion-trap mass spectrometer (LTQ, ThermoElectron, San Jose, CA).
- LTQ linear ion-trap mass spectrometer
- Separation column was slurry-packed in-house with 5 ⁇ m, 200 A pore size Cl 8 resin (Michrom BioResources, CA) in 100 ⁇ m i.d. x 10 cm long fused silica capillary (Polymicro Technologies, Phoenix, AZ) with a laser- pulled tip. After sample injection, the column was washed for 5 minutes with mobile phase A (0.4% acetic acid) and peptides were eluted using a linear gradient of 0% mobile phase B (0.4% acetic acid, 80% acetonitrile) to 50% mobile phase B in 30 minutes at 250 nanoliter/min, then to 100% B in an additional 5 minutes.
- mobile phase A 0.4% acetic acid
- peptides were eluted using a linear gradient of 0% mobile phase B (0.4% acetic acid, 80% acetonitrile) to 50% mobile phase B in 30 minutes at 250 nanoliter/min, then to 100% B in an additional 5 minutes.
- the LTQ mass spectrometer was operated in a data-dependent mode in which each full MS scan was followed by five MS/MS scans where the five most abundant molecular ions were dynamically selected for collision-induced dissociation (CID) using a normalized collision energy of 35%.
- CID collision-induced dissociation
- the ETD method with Thermo LTQ instrument also can be used.
- the ETD method (Syka et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. (2004) 101 :9528-9533) accomplishes peptide fragmentation in the MS-MS analysis by electron transfer, in contrast to the traditional collision-induced dissociation (CID).
- CID collision-induced dissociation
- ETD has been demonstrated to be more powerful than CID in providing more easily interpretable MS-MS sequence data from larger, higher-charge state peptides (including intact small proteins), as well as those with post-translational modifications (PTMs).
- PTMs post-translational modifications
- LMW proteins Fractionating LMW proteins [0052]
- A 100- ⁇ L aliquots of whole serum samples were prepared for high performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis by reduction and alkylation (DTT, iodoacetamide) followed by digestion of the proteins followed by LTQ mass spectroscopy.
- DTT reduction and alkylation
- B and C a proteome subset consisting of low molecular weight (LMW) proteins was prepared from each serum sample to reduce the complexity of the protein mixture. The resulting LMW proteins were fractionated by SDS-PAGE and proteins were visualized by Coomassie staining.
- LMW low molecular weight
- the samples consisted of pooled serum samples from 14- 15 subjects (control, MCI and PMCI). With improved LMW isolation, serum proteins with molecular weights 25kDa were collected and fractionated by SDS- PAGE.
- MS-MS spectra were searched against a public human protein database (NCBI) using the SEQUEST search algorithm to obtain matches.
- Results in study A only identified abundant serum proteins.
- LMW serum proteins The threshold of 5OkDa was insufficient to reduce the complexity of proteins, and TCA protein precipitation resulted in unacceptable protein loss.
- a high-quality analysis of study B was conducted using pooled samples of a relatively large number (14) of individual subject serum samples per group.
- This study compared LMW proteins identified in control vs. MCI vs. PMCI sample/subject groups. This qualitative analysis identified candidate biomarkers (differentially abundant proteins).
- the objective of study C was to identify LMW serum proteins with differential abundances that correlated with progression from MCI to PMCI (4 individuals; 4 sample pairs) and control to MCI (1 individual; 1 pair of samples) diagnoses. These 10 sample analyses yielded identification of more than 500 proteins. No major differences in apoE genotype between subjects are found in the subject cohorts.
- Determination of candidate biomarker proteins was achieved by comparing the number of tandem mass spectra (MS2 scans) that were matched to peptide sequences corresponding to the source proteins in the database against which the data were searched. A higher abundance protein relative to a lower abundance one will yield a greater number of, and more abundant, peptides from the enzyme digest, and these peptides often will result in more matched MS2 spectra. In this way, the number of MS2 spectra, termed "spectral count”, is an approximate measure of the relative abundance of proteins in a mixture (Analytical Chemistry, 76(14), 4193- 4201 (2004)). The evaluation of candidate differentially abundant proteins focuses on proteins that yielded a 50% or greater spectral count difference in one sample set versus the other.
- SH are counted independently at two sites (Detroit MRI Institute for Biomedical Research (DMRI) and Loma Linda University (LLU)) but currently primarily at LLU by raters who are integral to the project using an identical protocol blinded to clinical status.
- SWI filtered phase images were reviewed for the presence of SH one 2 mm slice at a time. All magnitude images, high pass (HP) filtered phase images and contrast enhanced SWI magnitude images were used in the data review process. Images were placed side by side for identifying SH and HP filtered phase images are used to mark them with review above and below to check for vascular connections.
- One slice may contain more than one SH as in Fig 2., then every SH was highlighted with a different colored boundary.
- SH are assigned a slice and serial number, size (1-3, 3-5, >5 mm O. D.) and anatomical location. Differentiating microaneurysms with blood in and/or around vessel walls was uncertain since blood collecting in a microaneurysm produces a significant signal void. Subarachnoid and sulcal vascular voids, symmetrical focal basal ganglia signal losses were not counted. [0059] The biomarkers identified as associated with brain microhemorrages are presented in Table 1 1.
- the inventive biomarkers can be evaluated further using a variety of methods.
- mass spectrometric methods can be used.
- One method of validation is Western assays of serum samples using commercially available antibodies specific for the candidate proteins. If antibodies are not available commercially, they can be produced readily using methods well know in the art and disclosed herein.
- triple quadruple mass spectrometry (TQMS) technology can be used to further evaluate the biomarkers.
- TQMS triple quadruple mass spectrometry
- the technique employs multiple reaction monitoring (MRM), which consists of (1) detection and selection of molecular ions with the first quadruple, (2) fragmentation of these ions in the second quadruple, and (3) detection of a small number of known fragment ions in the third quadruple.
- MRM multiple reaction monitoring
- the analysis yields an analyte's molecular weight and the relative abundances of fragment ions that are characteristic of analyte structure and chromatographic elution time (LC/MS).
- Modern TQMS instruments provide advanced MRM performance with higher resolution and accuracy mass measurement, fast electronics for switching between a large number of selected analyte and fragmentation masses monitored, and ease of use.
- Inherent advantages of LC/TQMS include high detection sensitivity, large dynamic range of detection response, and the ability to incorporate stable isotope labeled synthetic analogs of the targeted analytes, which allows superior quantitative analytical performance.
