Inflammatory Markers in Huntington’s Disease Plasma – A Robust NanoLC-MRM-MS Assay Development
Author
Summary, in English
The development of a quantitative multiplex reaction monitoring (MRM) assay is presented for the measurements of seven inflammatory markers in human plasma, using nanoLC-MS/MS analysis with stable isotope dilution strategy. We report a robust and sensitive, mass spectrometry based, quantitative assay with a relative standard deviation of <15% that accounts for the entire sample processing, while the analytical reproducibility of the assay was 3.6%. We used plasma from Huntington´s disease (HD) gene carriers and healthy controls to compare our MRM method with established antibody based methods. Interestingly, we found a good agreement between assays for the measurement of C-reactive protein (CRP).
