Detection of FGF15 in plasma by stable isotope standards and capture by anti-peptide antibodies and targeted mass spectrometry.
Cell Metabolism 2015 June 3
Fibroblast growth factor 15 (FGF15) has been proposed as a postprandial hormone that signals from intestine to liver to regulate bile acid and carbohydrate homeostasis. However, detecting FGF15 in blood using conventional techniques has proven difficult. Here, we describe a stable isotope standards and capture by anti-peptide antibodies (SISCAPA) assay that combines immuno-enrichment with selected reaction monitoring (SRM) mass spectrometry to overcome this issue. Using this assay, we show that FGF15 circulates in plasma in an FXR and circadian rhythm-dependent manner at concentrations that activate its receptor. Consistent with the proposed endocrine role for FGF15 in liver, mice lacking hepatocyte expression of the obligate FGF15 co-receptor, β-Klotho, have increased bile acid synthesis and reduced glycogen storage despite having supraphysiological plasma FGF15 concentrations. Collectively, these data demonstrate that FGF15 functions as a hormone and highlight the utility of SISCAPA-SRM as a sensitive assay for detecting low-abundance proteins in plasma.
