Keratoconus is a multifactorial disease that causes progressive thinning of the cornea and whose etiology is poorly understood. Several studies have used proteomics on patient tear fluids to identify potential biomarkers. However, proteome of the cornea itself has not been investigated fully. We report here new findings from a case\u2013control study using multiplexed mass spectrometry (MS) on individual (unpooled) corneas to gain deeper insights into proteins and biomarkers relevant to keratoconus. We employed a high-pressure approach to extract total protein from individual corneas from five cases and five controls, followed by trypsin digestion and tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling. The MS-derived data were searched using the Human NCBI RefSeq protein database v92, with peptides and proteins filtered at 1% false discovery rate. A total of 3132 proteins were detected, of which 627 were altered significantly (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009\u2264\u20090.05) in keratoconus corneas. The increases were overwhelmingly in the mTOR\/PI3\/AKT signal-mediated regulations of cell survival and proliferation, nonsense-mediated decay of transcripts, and proteasomal pathways. The decreases were in several extracellular matrix proteins and in many members of the complement system. Importantly, this multiplexed proteomic study of keratoconus corneas identified, to our knowledge, the largest number of corneal proteins. The novel findings include changes in pathways that regulate transcript stability, proteasomal degradation, and the complement system in corneas with keratoconus. These observations offer new prospects toward future discovery of novel molecular targets for diagnostic and therapeutic innovations for patients with keratoconus.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/omi.2019.0143","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,10,25]],"date-time":"2019-10-25T10:08:34Z","timestamp":1571998114000},"page":"583-597","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":30,"title":["Mapping Keratoconus Molecular Substrates by Multiplexed High-Resolution Proteomics of Unpooled Corneas"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Vishal","family":"Shinde","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nan","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Santosh","family":"Renuse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alka","family":"Mahale","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Department, King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Akhilesh","family":"Pandey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charles","family":"Eberhart","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pathology, Ophthalmology and Oncology Department, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Maryland."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Donald","family":"Stone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Samar A.","family":"Al-Swailem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Anterior Segment Division, King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Azza","family":"Maktabi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, King Khaled Eye Specialist Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shukti","family":"Chakravarti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York."},{"name":"Department of Pathology, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,11,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2018\/5983530"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1167\/iovs.11-7732"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.matbio.2015.03.005"},{"key":"e_1_3_5_5_1","first-page":"2293","article-title":"Superoxide dismutase isoenzymes in the normal and diseased human cornea","volume":"42","author":"Behndig A","year":"2001","unstructured":"Behndig A, , Karlsson K, , Johansson BO, , Brannstrom T, , and Marklund SL.
