Plasma sanguin

Résumé

Le plasma sanguin est le composant liquide du sang, dans lequel les cellules sanguines sont en suspension. Il constitue 55 % du volume total du sang. Il sert à transporter les cellules sanguines et les hormones à travers le corps. Généralement, on retrouve environ de plasma dans le corps d'un adulte. L'extraction du plasma sanguin est effectuée par simple centrifugation ; le liquide jaunâtre que l'on observe après cette opération est le plasma sanguin. Historique La première utilisation du plasma sanguin a été faite pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Le programme du Blood for Britain supervisé par le docteur Charles R. Drew a été un succès dès les années 1940 et s'est poursuivi par une collecte dans les hôpitaux de New York pour exporter le plasma vers l'Angleterre.

Novel Analytical Methods for Allergy-Related Studies

Mikaël Frossard

Managing and treating diseases require a deep understanding of the pathologies coupled with accurate diagnostic procedures. The constant development and improvement of bioanalytical methods reflect the need of diagnosis ameliorations with respect to accuracy, sensitivity and efficiency. The field of allergy diagnosis is a good example. Despite affecting almost a third of the population in western countries, allergies still present complex challenges for the physicians in terms of diagnosis and allergen characterization. This thesis presents novel analytical methods developed for the fast and personalized allergy component-resolved diagnosis (CRD), the allergen identification and quantification in food matrices and the characterization of allergen modifications, notably nitration. Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) was used to perform the allergy diagnosis at the molecular level by extracting the IgE antibodies from allergic patient blood sera and probing them against individual allergens and natural allergenic extracts. The fast and highly selective IMS procedure was coupled to matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry (MS) to identify accurately and with high sensitivity the proteins recognized as sensitizers by the patient antibodies. The developed CRD methods were successful to diagnose cowâs milk, egg, peanut and tree nuts allergies, allowing the resolution of several complex clinical cases. Additionally, precious information was collected for the cross-reactivity and cross-sensitization in peanut and tree nuts allergies using blood sera from the PronNut clinical study. Allergen nitration is one of the potential causes for the increase in allergy prevalence observed recently and requires thorough investigation. Herein, various nitrating agents were tested and compared for in vitro allergen nitration. After modifying allergens using two of the most efficient nitrating procedures, the nitration sites were identified by bottom-up proteomics (BUP) and compared to the known epitopes, bringing useful information and novel insights to the problem of correlation between protein nitration and allergenicity. The presence of a minute amount of allergens in a food product is responsible for potential life-threatening reactions in highly allergic patients and sensitive analytical methods are therefore required in food quality assessments. A proteomic-based method was used for the quality control of several food products suspected of causing severe reactions for peanut and hazelnut-allergic patients. Peptide markers were identified in a first screening of the food extracts by BUP using a high-resolution MS instrument. A standard addition method was then used to quantify peanut and hazelnut proteins by BUP using an untargeted âshotgunâ approach.

The emergence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains resistant to current first-line antibiotic regimens constitutes a major global health threat. New treatments against multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) are thus eagerly needed in particular in countries with a high MDR-TB prevalence. In this context, macozinone (PBTZ169), a promising drug candidate with an unique mode of action and highly potent in vitro tuberculocidal properties against MDR Mycobacterium strains, has now reached the clinical phase and has been notably tested in healthy male volunteers in Switzerland. To that endeavor, a multiplex UHPLC-MS/MS method has been developed for the sensitive and accurate human plasma levels determination of PBTZ169 along with five metabolites retaining in vitro anti-TB activity. Plasma protein precipitation with methanol was carried out as a simplified sample clean-up procedure followed by direct injection of the undiluted supernatant for the bioanalysis of the six analytes within 5 min, using 1.8 mu m reversed-phase chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry employing electrospray ionization in the positive mode. Stable isotopically-labelled PBTZ169 was used as internal standard (ISTD), while metabolites could be reliably quantified using two unlabeled chemical analogues selected as ISTD from a large in-house analogous compounds library. The overall methodology was fully validated according to current recommendations (FDA, EMEA) for bioanalytical methods, which include selectivity, carryover, qualitative and quantitative matrix effect, extraction recovery, process efficiency, trueness, precision, accuracy profiles, method and instrument detection limits, integrity to dilution, anticoagulant comparison and short-and long-term stabilities. Stability studies on the reduced metabolite H-2-PBTZ169 have shown no significant impact on the actual PBTZ169 concentrations determined with the proposed assay. This simplified, rapid, sensitive and robust methodology has been applied to the bioanalysis of human plasma samples collected within the frame of a phase I clinical study in healthy volunteers receiving PBTZ169.

In the context of hormonal contraception and hormone replacement therapy (HRT), many women are exposed to exogenous hormones. Current use of hormonal contraception with combined ethinyl estradiol and different progestins bestows a breast cancer relative risk (RR) of 1.2-while combined HRT has a RR of 2. Although these exposures present an important public health issue, little is known about the effects of individual progestins on the breast and other tissues. Increasing availability of large scale biobanks, high throughput analyses and data management tools enable ever expanding, sophisticated population studies. In order to address the impact of distinct progestins on various health indicators, it is desirable to accurately quantify progestins in clinical samples. Here we have developed and validated a high resolution liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) targeted method for the simultaneous quantification of 11 synthetic progestins widely used in oral contraceptives, gestodene, levonorgestrel, etonogestrel, chlormadinone acetate, cyproterone acetate, drospirenone, desacetyl norgestimate, medroxyprogesterone acetate, norethindrone, dienogest, nomegestrol acetate, and 4 endogenous steroid hormones, progesterone, testosterone, androstenedione, and cortisol in blood samples. This highly specific quantitative analysis with high resolution Orbitrap technology detects and quantifies 15 compounds using their internal standard counterparts in a single 12 min LC-MS run. Sensitivity is attained by the use of the instrument in targeted selected ion monitoring mode. Lower limit of quantitation ranges from 2.4 pg/ml for drospirenone to 78.1 pg/ml for chlormadinone acetate. The method provides comprehensive progestin panel measurements with as little as 50 pi of murine or human plasma. (C) 2019 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
