Abstract BACKGROUND: Leptin, resistin, and adiponectin have been recognized as critical adipokines that play a role in the pathophysiology of obesity and associated disorders such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. While these adipokines have been historically measured by immunoassays, the specificity of antibody-based assays has frequently been questioned. Consequently, there is growing interest in the development of reliable and multiplexed clinical assays utilizing mass spectrometry. Here we developed a multiplexed immunoaffinity LC-MS/MS (multi-IA-LC-MS) assay for sensitive and selective measurement of leptin, resistin, and adiponectin simultaneously in human plasma or serum.
METHODS: Leptin, resistin, and adiponectin were enriched from plasma samples with an antibody cocktail containing monoclonal antibodies against each antigen. Enriched adipokines were digested, and tryptic peptides were quantified with LC-MS/MS. The validated assay was applied to plasma samples from a cohort of subjects with normal weight, overweight, and obesity.
RESULTS: The lower limits of quantification were 0.5, 0.5 and 50 ng/mL for leptin, resistin, and adiponectin, respectively. Intra-day, inter-day, and total imprecision were all <15%, and spike recovery was consistently > 83% for the three adipokines. Comparison with individual immunoassays resulted in a good correlation (all r ≥ 0.869). Compared to subjects with normal weight, a ~9-fold increase and a ~1.6-fold decrease was observed for circulating leptin and adiponectin, respectively, in subjects with obesity.
CONCLUSIONS: A multi-IA-LC-MS assay was demonstrated for simultaneous and sensitive measurement of leptin, resistin, and adiponectin in clinical samples. The developed quantitative method could hold substantial potential for obesity-related clinical applications.
