The effects of sample handling on proteomics assessed by reverse phase protein arrays (RPPA): Functional proteomic profiling in leukemia
Journal of Proteomics(2021)
摘要
Reverse phase protein arrays (RPPA) can assess protein expression and activation states in large numbers of samples (n > 1000) and evidence suggests feasibility in the setting of multi-institution clinical trials. Despite evidence in solid tumors, little is known about protein stability in leukemia. Proteins collected from leukemia cells in blood and bone marrow biopsies must be sufficiently stable for analysis. Using 58 leukemia samples, we initially assessed protein/phospho-protein integrity for the following preanalytical variables: 1) shipping vs local processing, 2) temperature (4 °C vs ambient temperature), 3) collection tube type (heparin vs Cell Save (CS) preservation tubes), 4) treatment effect (pre- vs post-chemotherapy) and 5) transit time. Next, we assessed 1515 samples from the Children's Oncology Group Phase 3 AML clinical trial (AAML1031, NCT01371981) for the effects of transit time and tube type. Protein expression from shipped blood samples was stable if processed in ≤72 h. While protein expression in pre-chemotherapy samples was stable in both heparin and CS tubes, post-chemotherapy samples were stable in only CS tubes. RPPA protein extremes is a successful quality control measure to identify and exclude poor quality samples. These data demonstrate that a majority of shipped proteins can be accurately assessed using RPPA.
