New preclinical biomarkers for prion diseases in the cerebrospinal fluid proteome revealed by mass spectrometry
Resumen: Current diagnostic methods for prion diseases only work in late stages of the disease when neurodegeneration is irreversible. Therefore, biomarkers that can detect the disease before the onset of clinical symptoms are necessary. High-throughput discovery proteomics is of great interest in the search for such molecules. Here we used mass spectrometry to analyse the cerebrospinal fluid proteome in an animal prion disease: preclinical and clinical sheep affected with natural scrapie, and healthy sheep. Interestingly, we found 46 proteins in the preclinical stage that were significantly altered (p < 0.01) compared to healthy sheep, mainly associated with biological processes such as stress and inflammatory responses. Five of them were selected for validation by enzyme-like immunosorbent assay: synaptotagmin binding, cytoplasmic RNA interacting protein (SYNCRIP), involved in nucleic acid metabolism; phospholipase D3 (PLD3) and cathepsin D (CTSD), both related to lysosomal apoptosis; complement component 4 (C4), an element of the classical immune response; and osteopontin (SPP1), a proinflammatory cytokine. These proteins significantly increased in the preclinical stage and maintained their levels in the clinical phase, except for CTSD, whose concentration returned to basal levels in the clinical group. Further research is ongoing to explore their potential as preclinical biomarkers of prion diseases.
