Secretome of the preimplantation human embryo by bottom-up label-free proteomics

Abstract: A bottom-up label-free mass spectrometric proteomic strategy was used to analyse the protein profiles of the human embryonic secretome. Culture media samples used for embryonic culture of patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles were selected as a test case for this exploratory proof-of-principle study. The media were stored after embryo transfer and then pooled into positive (n = 8) and negative (n = 8) implantation groups. The absolute quantitative bottom-up technique employed a multidimen… Show more

“…Non-invasive approaches for embryonic development potential have the advantages of increasing the knowledge of embryo physiology, therefore allowing the development of methods to predict developmental competence and viability [14]. These approaches include genomic and proteomic profiling and analytical examination of the embryonic metabolome [13,[15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…Proteins up-and downregulated are indicated in black and dark gray, respectively. Proteins which are present at levels not statistically different between groups A and B are indicated in light gray below the horizontal threshold line [49], as the most represented proteins in the secretome of the preimplantation human embryo able to predict positive pregnancy outcome [54]. Moreover, according to a recent observation describing the important role of histone H2A variants (H2A.X, H2A.Z and macroH2A) in genome remodeling after fertilization [55] and preimplantation embryo development [56], our study reveals that blastocoel fluid of aged woman undergoes a global change in histone composition, as it contains soluble histones (H2A.X, H2B and H4) that are completely absent in younger women.…”

“…Label-free approaches realized through MDLC platforms have been widely employed for biomarker discovery [128][129][130][131][132] and PTMs study [128,133]. In fact, the diverse abundance features, together with the algorithms to generate the quantification results present themselves as the most active research field in label-free quantifications.…”
