Bridging the Gap From Proteomics Technology to Clinical Application: Highlights From the 68th Benzon Foundation Symposium.

The 68th Benzon Foundation Symposium brought together leading experts to explore the integration of mass spectrometry-based proteomics and artificial intelligence to revolutionize personalized medicine. This report highlights key discussions on recent technological advances in mass spectrometry-based proteomics, including improvements in sensitivity, throughput, and data analysis. Particular emphasis was placed on plasma proteomics and its potential for biomarker discovery across various diseases.

Imputation of label-free quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics data using self-supervised deep learning.

Imputation techniques provide means to replace missing measurements with a value and are used in almost all downstream analysis of mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomics data using label-free quantification (LFQ). Here we demonstrate how collaborative filtering, denoising autoencoders, and variational autoencoders can impute missing values in the context of LFQ at different levels. We applied our method, proteomics imputation modeling mass spectrometry (PIMMS), to an alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) cohort with blood plasma proteomics data available for 358 individuals.

Proteomic profiling reveals diagnostic signatures and pathogenic insights in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a severe disease that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although recognized as an immune-mediated condition, the pathogenesis remains unresolved. Furthermore, the absence of a diagnostic test can lead to delayed immunotherapy.

Mass spectrometry-based proteomics data from thousands of HeLa control samples.

Here we provide a curated, large scale, label free mass spectrometry-based proteomics data set derived from HeLa cell lines for general purpose machine learning and analysis. Data access and filtering is a tedious task, which takes up considerable amounts of time for researchers. Therefore we provide machine based metadata for easy selection and overview along the 7,444 raw files and MaxQuant search output.

Diagnosis trajectories of prior multi-morbidity predict sepsis mortality.

Sepsis affects millions of people every year, many of whom will die. In contrast to current survival prediction models for sepsis patients that primarily are based on data from within-admission clinical measurements (e.g.
