Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney transplantation is the preferred treatment for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, acute rejection poses a threat to the graft long-term survival. The aim of this study was to identify novel biomarkers to detect acute kidney transplant rejection. METHODS The serum proteomic profiling of kidney transplant patients with T cell-mediated acute rejection (TCMR) and stable allograft function (STA) was analyzed using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS). The differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) of interest were further verified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS A total of 131 DEPs were identified between STA and TCMR patients, 114 DEPs were identified between mild and severe TCMR patients. The verification results showed that remarkable higher concentrations of serum amyloid A protein 1 (SAA1) and insulin like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP2), and lower fetuin-A (AHSG) concentration were found in TCMR patients when compared with STA patients. We also found higher SAA1 concentration in severe TCMR group when compared with mild TCMR group. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis further confirmed that combination of SAA1, AHSG, and IGFBP2 had excellent performance in the acute rejection diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrated that serum SAA1, AHSG, and IGFBP2 could be effective biomarkers for diagnosing acute rejection after kidney transplantation. DIA-MS has great potential in biomarker screening of kidney transplantation.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex assembly of proteins that provide interstitial scaffolding and elastic recoil for human lungs. The pulmonary extracellular matrix is increasingly recognized as an independent bioactive entity, by creating biochemical and mechanical signals that influence disease pathogenesis, making it an attractive therapeutic target. However, the pulmonary ECM proteome ("matrisome") remains challenging to analyze by mass spectrometry due to its inherent biophysical properties and relatively low abundance. Here, we introduce a strategy designed for rapid and efficient characterization of the human pulmonary ECM using the photocleavable surfactant Azo. We coupled this approach with trapped ion mobility MS with diaPASEF to maximize the depth of matrisome coverage. Using this strategy, we identify nearly 400 unique matrisome proteins with excellent reproducibility that are known to be important in lung biology, including key core matrisome proteins.

Abstract
Data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged as a powerful technology for high-throughput, accurate, and reproducible quantitative proteomics. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in both the experimental and computational methods for DIA proteomics, from data acquisition schemes to analysis strategies and software tools. DIA acquisition schemes are categorized based on the design of precursor isolation windows, highlighting wide-window, overlapping-window, narrow-window, scanning quadrupole-based, and parallel accumulation-serial fragmentation-enhanced DIA methods. For DIA data analysis, major strategies are classified into spectrum reconstruction, sequence-based search, library-based search, de novo sequencing, and sequencing-independent approaches. A wide array of software tools implementing these strategies are reviewed, with details on their overall workflows and scoring approaches at different steps. The generation and optimization of spectral libraries, which are critical resources for DIA analysis, are also discussed. Publicly available benchmark datasets covering global proteomics and phosphoproteomics are summarized to facilitate performance evaluation of various software tools and analysis workflows. Continued advances and synergistic developments of versatile components in DIA workflows are expected to further enhance the power of DIA-based proteomics.

Abstract
Toxoplasma gondii, a protozoan parasite with the ability to infect various warm-blooded vertebrates, including humans, is the causative agent of toxoplasmosis. This infection poses significant risks, leading to severe complications in immunocompromised individuals and potentially affecting the fetus through congenital transmission. A comprehensive understanding of the intricate molecular interactions between T. gondii and its host is pivotal for the development of effective therapeutic strategies. This review emphasizes the crucial role of proteomics in T. gondii research, with a specific focus on host-parasite interactions, post-translational modifications (PTMs), PTM crosstalk, and ongoing efforts in drug discovery. Additionally, we provide an overview of recent advancements in proteomics techniques, encompassing interactome sample preparation methods such as BioID (BirA*-mediated proximity-dependent biotin identification), APEX (ascorbate peroxidase-mediated proximity labeling), and Y2H (yeast two hybrid), as well as various proteomics approaches, including single-cell analysis, DIA (data-independent acquisition), targeted, top-down, and plasma proteomics. Furthermore, we discuss bioinformatics and the integration of proteomics with other omics technologies, highlighting its potential in unraveling the intricate mechanisms of T. gondii pathogenesis and identifying novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Phosphoproteomics and ubiquitinomics data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry (MS) data is typically analyzed by using a data-dependent acquisition (DDA) spectral library. The performance of various library-free strategies for analyzing phosphoproteomics and ubiquitinomics DIA MS data has not been evaluated. In this study, we systematically compare four commonly used DDA library-free approaches including Spectronaut's directDIA, DIA-Umpire, DIA-MSFragger, and in silico-predicted library for analysis of phosphoproteomics SWATH, DIA, and diaPASEF data as well as ubiquitinomics diaPASEF data. Spectronaut's directDIA shows the highest sensitivity for phosphopeptide detection not only in synthetic phosphopeptide samples but also in phosphoproteomics SWATH-MS and DIA data from real biological samples, when compared to the other three library-free strategies. For phosphoproteomics diaPASEF data, Spectronaut's directDIA and the in silico-predicted library based on DIA-NN identify almost the same number of phosphopeptides as a project-specific DDA spectral library. However, only about 30% of the total phosphopeptides are commonly identified, suggesting that the library-free strategies for phospho-diaPASEF data need further improvement in terms of sensitivity. For ubiquitinomics diaPASEF data, the in silico-predicted library performs the best among the four workflows and detects ∼50% more K-GG peptides than a project-specific DDA spectral library. Our results demonstrate that Spectronaut's directDIA is suitable for the analysis of phosphoproteomics SWATH-MS and DIA MS data, while the in silico-predicted library based on DIA-NN shows substantial advantages for ubiquitinomics diaPASEF MS data.

Abstract
Zika virus (ZIKV) and dengue virus (DENV) are two closely related flaviviruses with similar symptoms. However, due to the implications of ZIKV infections for pregnancy outcomes, understanding differences in their molecular impact on the host is of high interest. Viral infections change the host proteome, including post-translational modifications. As modifications are diverse and of low abundance, they typically require additional sample processing which is not feasible for large cohort studies. Therefore, we tested the potential of next-generation proteomics data in its ability to prioritize specific modifications for later analysis. We re-mined published mass spectra from 122 serum samples from ZIKV and DENV patients for the presence of phosphorylated, methylated, oxidized, glycosylated/glycated, sulfated, and carboxylated peptides. We identified 246 modified peptides with significantly differential abundance in ZIKV and DENV patients. Amongst these, methionine-oxidized peptides from apolipoproteins and glycosylated peptides from immunoglobulin proteins were more abundant in ZIKV patient serum and generate hypotheses on the potential roles of the modification in the infection. The results demonstrate how data-independent acquisition techniques can help prioritize future analyses of peptide modifications.
