Pathway analysis incorporating protein–protein interaction networks was carried out to identify pathological processes linked to the differentially expressed proteins.Results: We quantified 272 proteins in patients with RLS and healthy controls, of which 243 were shared. Five proteins – apolipoprotein C-II, leucine-rich alpha-2-glycoprotein 1, FLJ92374, extracellular matrix protein 1, and FLJ93143 – were substantially increased in RLS patients, whereas nine proteins – vitamin D-binding protein, FLJ78071, alpha-1-antitrypsin, CD5 antigen-like, haptoglobin, fibrinogen alpha chain, complement factor H-related protein 1, platelet factor 4, and plasma protease C1 inhibitor – were decreased. Bioinformatics analyses revealed that these proteins were linked to 1) inflammatory and immune response, and complement activation, 2) brain-related development, cell aging, and memory disorders, 3) pregnancy and associated complications, 4) myocardial infarction, and 5) reactive oxygen species generation and subsequent diabetes mellitus.Conclusion: Our findings shed light on the multifactorial nature of RLS and identified a set of circulating proteins that may have clinical importance as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.Keywords: idiopathic restless legs syndrome, biomarkers, LC-MS/MS, proteome, interactomeMondello SKobeissy FHMechref YZhao JEl Hayek SZibara KMoresco MPlazzi GCosentino FIIFerri RDove Medical Pressarticleidiopathic restless legs syndromebiomarkerslc-ms/msproteomeinteractomePsychiatryRC435-571Neurophysiology and neuropsychologyQP351-495ENNature and Science of Sleep, Vol Volume 13, Pp 873-883 (2021) |
