Item Tissue proteomics in atherosclerosis: elucidating the molecular mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases(Expert Review of Proteomics, 2009) Cuesta, Fernando de la; Álvarez Llamas, Gloria; Gil Dones, Félix; Martin-Rojas, Tatiana; Zubiri, Irene; Pastor Vargas, Carlos; Barderas, Maria ; Vivanco Martínez, FernandoAtherosclerosis is a disease with higher levels of mortality in developed countries. Comprehension of the molecular mechanisms can yield very useful information in clinics for prevention, diagnosis and recovery monitoring. Proteomics represents an ideal methodology for this purpose, as proteins constitute the effectors of the different biological processes running during pathogenesis. To date, studies in atherosclerosis have been mainly focused on the search for plasma biomarkers. However, tissue proteomics allows going deeper into tissue secretomes, arterial layers or particular cells of interest, which, in turn, constitutes a more direct approximation to in vivo operating mechanisms. The aim of this review is to report latest advances in tissue proteomics in atherosclerosis and related diseases (e.g., aortic stenosis and ischemic injury).Item Novel liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry method for sensitive determination of the mustard allergen Sin a 1 in food(Food Chemistry, 2015) Posada-Ayala, Maria; Álvarez Llamas, Gloria; Maroto, Aroa; Maes, Xavier; Muñoz-Garcia, Esther; Villalba Díaz, María Teresa; Rodríguez García, Rosalía; Perez-Gordo, Marina; Vivanco Martínez, Fernando; Pastor Vargas, Carlos; Cuesta-Herranz, JavierMustard is a condiment added to a variety of foodstuffs and a frequent cause of food allergy. A new strategy for the detection of mustard allergen in food products is presented. The methodology is based on liquid chromatography analysis coupled to mass spectrometry. Mustard allergen Sin a 1 was purified from yellow mustard seeds. Sin a 1 was detected with a total of five peptides showing a linear response (lowest LOD was 5ng). Sin a 1 was detected in mustard sauces and salty biscuit (19±3mg/kg) where mustard content is not specified. Sin a 1, used as an internal standard, allowed quantification of this mustard allergen in foods. A novel LC/MS/MS SRM-based method has been developed to detect and quantify the presence of mustard. This method could help to detect mustard allergen Sin a 1 in processed foods and protect mustard-allergic consumers.Item Novel liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry method for sensitive determination of the mustard allergen Sin a 1 in food(Food Chemistry, 2015) Maria Posada-Ayala; Álvarez Llamas, Gloria; Aroa S.
