Quick and wide-range taxonomical repertoire establishment of the cystic fibrosis lung microbiota by tandem mass spectrometry on sputum samples

Abstract

Microorganisms proteotyping by tandem mass spectrometry has been recently shown as a powerful methodology to identify the wide-range taxonomy and biomass of microbiota. Sputum is the recommended specimen for routine microbiological monitoring of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients but has been rarely submitted to tandem mass spectrometry-based proteotyping. In this study, we compared the microbial components of spontaneous and induced sputum samples from three cystic fibrosis patients. Although the presence of microbial proteins is much lower than host proteins, we report that the microbiota’s components present in the samples can be identified, as well as host biomarkers and functional insights into the microbiota. No significant difference was found in microorganism abundance between paired spontaneous and induced sputum samples. Microbial proteins linked to resistance, iron uptake, and biofilm-forming ability were observed in sputa independently of the sampling method. This unbiased and enlarged view of the CF microbiome could be highly complementary to culture and relevant for the clinical management of CF patients by improving knowledge about the host-pathogen dynamics and CF pathophysiology.

Figures

Figure 1 Experimental workflow of the study. ① Paired spontaneous and induced sputum samples collected from CF patients were filtered to reduce their viscosity and submitted to differential centrifugation to concentrate the microorganisms. The proteins extracted were submitted to a short in-gel migration and digested into peptides using trypsin. ② The resulting peptides were analyzed by nanoLC-MS/MS. ③ Results were interpreted in a three-step cascaded search to retrieve the taxonomic and functional protein annotations ④.

Figure 4 Relative abundance of microbial taxa at the genus level in spontaneous sputum (SS) versus induced sputum (IS) samples determined following the mass-exclusion list strategy. The relative abundance (%) corresponds to the normalized TSM signals at the genus level. The inner circle indicates the relative abundance of the microbial taxa found in SS sample whereas the outer circle corresponds to the results for IS sample. Each value corresponds to the mean of the analytical triplicates per sample.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
