PurposeWe investigated different sample pretreatment strategies and developed a standardized sample pretreatment protocol for absolute quantification of seven apolipoproteins (Apos) in human serum by LC-MS/MS using proteotypic peptides and corresponding stable isotope-labeled peptides as internal standards. Experimental designMicro-LC was coupled with quadrupole-linear ion trap MS for quantification and peptide confirmation. Denaturation, reduction, alkylation, and tryptic digestion including ultrasound and microwave assistance were investigated. Method comparison of 50 plasma samples with an immunoassay was performed for Apo A-I and Apo B. ResultsTryptic digestion times ranged between 5min (Apo A-I, Apo E, Apo A-IV) and 16h (Apo A-II). Ultrasound and microwave assistance did not improve the digestion yield. Linearity was found between 0.1 nmol/L and 100 mmol/L. The lower limits of quantification were 0.4mol/L for Apo A-I, Apo A-IV, Apo B-100, Apo C-I, Apo C-III, Apo E, and <1.4mol/L for Apo A-II. CV <13% were determined. Comparison with immunoassays showed a good agreement for Apo A-I and Apo B. Conclusion and clinical relevanceThe validated preanalytical protocol enables a reliable simultaneous analysis of seven Apos in human serum without depletion. The method can now be applied in clinical studies to investigate the Apo distributions in cardiovascular diseases.
