Proteomic profiling of the retinas in a neonatal rat model of oxygen-induced retinopathy with a reproducible ion-current-based MS1 approach.
Journal of Proteome Research 2015 May 2
Investigation of the retina proteome during hypoxia-induced retinal neovascularization is valuable for understanding pathogenesis of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Here we employed a reproducible ion-current-based MS1 quantification approach (ICB) to explore the retinal proteomic changes in early stage of ROP in a rat model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR). Retina proteins, which are rich in membrane proteins, were efficiently extracted by a detergent-cocktail and subjected to precipitation/on-pellet-digestion, followed by nano-LC-MS analysis on a 75-cm column with a 7-h gradient. The high reproducibility of sample preparation and chromatography separation enabled excellent peak alignment and contributed to the superior performance of ICB over parallel label-free approaches. In this study, sum-of-intensity with rejection was incorporated to determine the protein ratios. In total, 1325 unique protein groups were quantified from rat retinas (n = 4/group) with at least two distinct peptides at a protein FDR of 1%. Thirty-two significantly altered proteins were observed with confidence, and the elevated glial fibrillary acidic protein and decreased crystalline proteins in OIR retinas agree well with previous studies. Selected key alterations were further validated by Western blot analysis. Interestingly, Rab21/RhoA/ROCK2/moesin signaling pathway was found to be involved in retinal neovascularization of OIR. Moreover, highly elevated annexin A3, a potential angiogenic mediator, was observed in OIR retinas and may serve as a potential therapeutic target. In conclusion, reproducible ICB profiling enabled reliable discovery of many altered mediators and pathways in OIR retinas, thereby providing new insights into molecular mechanisms involved in pathogenesis of ROP.
