HEK293 cells (ATCC—low passage cells—not verified or mycoplasma tested) were cultured in DMEM (10% FCS, 50 μg ml−1 penicillin, 50 μg ml−1 streptomycin). HEK293 cells were selected as they are a common cell line used in molecular biology research with many published orthogonal data sets. Cell pellets were lysed on ice by using a lysis buffer containing 8 M urea (EuroBio), 40 mM Tris-base (Sigma-Aldrich), 10 mM DTT (AppliChem), and complete protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche). The mixture was sonicated at 4 °C for 5 min using a VialTweeter device (Hielscher-Ultrasound Technology) at the highest setting and centrifuged at 21,130×g, 4 °C for 1 h to remove the insoluble material. The supernatant protein mixtures were transferred and the protein amount was determined with a Bradford assay (Bio-Rad). Then five volumes of precooled precipitation solution containing 50% acetone, 50% ethanol, and 0.1% acetic acid were added to the protein mixture and kept at −20 °C overnight. The mixture was centrifuged at 20,400×g for 40 min. The pellets were further washed with 100% acetone and 70% ethanol with centrifugation at 20,400×g for 40 min. Aliquots of 2 mg protein mixtures were reduced by 5 mM tris(carboxyethyl)phosphine (Sigma-Aldrich) and alkylated by 30 mM iodoacetamide (Sigma-Aldrich). The samples were then digested with sequencing-grade porcine trypsin (Promega) at a protease/protein ratio of 1:50 overnight at 37 °C in 100 mM NH4HCO3 (ref. 70 (link)). Digests were combined together and purified with Sep-Pak C18 Vac Cartridge (Waters). The peptide amount was determined by using Nanodrop ND-1000 (Thermo Scientific). An aliquot of retention time calibration peptides from an iRT-Kit (Biognosys) was spiked into the sample at a ratio of 1:20 or 1:25 (v/v) to correct relative retention times between acquisitions71 (link).
Thirty heavy labeled synthetic peptides that were previously used in an SRM study focused on limits of detection in mammalian cells48 (link) were selected. As such, these peptides are expected to perform well in LC–MS analysis. The MS response for each peptide was measured. The peptides were ranked by MS response and assigned to five groups (A–E) to ensure there was a range of responses across in each group. These peptides groups were diluted into the matrix described above across a concentration range to create the five different samples to be analyzed (Fig 1a, Supplementary Tables 1 and 2). Finally, samples were shipped on dry ice to the 11 sites.

hCSs were enzymatically dissociated to make a single cell suspension using a method used previously for dissociating brain tissue42 (link),43 (link). Briefly, the tissue was incubated at 33 °C for 45 min in 20 ml of a papain solution containing Earle’s balanced salts (EBSS, Sigma, E7510), D-(+)-glucose (22.5 mM), NaHCO3 (26 mM), DNase (125 U/ml, Worthington, LS002007), papain (30 U/ml, Worthington LS03126), and L-cysteine (1 mM, Sigma, C7880). The papain solution was equilibrated with 5% CO2 and 95% O2 gas before and during treatment. The tissue was subsequently washed three times with an inhibitor buffer containing BSA (1.0 mg/ml, Sigma A-8806) and ovomucoid (also known as trypsin inhibitor, 1.0 mg/ml, Roche Diagnostics Corporation 109878) and then mechanically dissociated by gentle sequential trituration. Dissociated cells were layered on top of high concentration inhibitor solution with 5 mg/ml BSA and 5 mg/ml ovomucoid and centrifuged at 130 g for five minutes. The cell pellet was then resuspended in Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline (DPBS, Invitrogen, 14287) containing 0.02% BSA and 12.5U/ml DNase and filtered through a 20 μm Nitex mesh (Sefar America Inc., Lab Pak 03-20/14) to remove undissociated cell clumps. Cell health was assessed by trypan blue exclusion. Only single cell suspensions with > 85% viability were used for experiments.

All solvents and NaCl were obtained from Fisher Scientific (Pittsburgh, PA, USA). Acetone and methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) were HPLC grade and methanol and water were Optima grade. Ammonium acetate was purchased from J.T. Baker (Phillipsburg, NJ, USA). Lycopene was isolated and crystallized from tomato paste as previously described [25 (link)]. Phytoene, phytofluene, ζ-carotene, neurosporene and tetra-cis-lycopene were isolated from tangerine tomato extracts using preparative HPLC. Identity and purity (>95%) was confirmed with HPLC/accurate mass before using as an external calibrant.
Carotenoids from tomato juices were analyzed using HPLC-DAD (Alliance 2695, 996 DAD, Waters Corporation, Milford, MA, USA) and TRL extracts were analyzed using HPLC-DAD-MS/MS (Agilent 1260, Santa Clara, CA, interfaced with an AB Sciex QTrap 5500 mass spectrometer, Foster City, CA, USA). Analytes were separated on a C30 column (4.6×250 mm, 3 μm, YMC Inc., Wilmington, NC, USA) at 35 °C using a gradient of A: 60% methanol, 35% MTBE, 3% water, 2% aqueous ammonium acetate (2% w/v), and B: 78% MTBE, 20% methanol, 2% aqueous ammonium acetate (2% w/v) flowing at 1.3 mL/min. A linear gradient was applied as follows: 0% B to 35.6% B over 9 min, to 100% B over the next 6.5 min, hold for 3.5 min at 100% B, and equilibrate for 3.5 min at initial conditions. Tomato juice extracts were re-dissolved in 2 mL of 1:1 MTBE:methanol, filtered using a 13 mm, 0.2 μm pore nylon filter, and 10 μL was injected. TRL extracts were re-dissolved in 200 μL 1:1 MTBE:methanol, centrifuged (model 5424, Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany) at 21,130 × g for 2 min, and 20 μL of the supernatant was injected. Phytoene, phytofluene and ζ-carotene were quantified using DAD while neurosporene and all lycopene isomers were quantified using MS/MS. HPLC-DAD-MS/MS parameters are shown in Table 2.

Overweight was defined as a BMI ≥85th percentile and <95th percentile for gender and age, and obesity was defined as a BMI greater than or equal to the gender- and age-specific 95th percentile according to the Chinese BMI classification for children [25 ]. No universally-accepted threshold defines hyperuricemia in children; in this study, we defined hyperuricemia using the threshold of a UA value ≥357 μmol/L in accordance with previous studies [26 (link)]. Anaemia was defined according to the WHO criteria as a Hb <115 g/L for children aged ≥5 and <12 years, <120 g/L for children aged ≥12 and <15 years, <120 g/L for girls aged ≥15 years, and <130 g/L for boys aged ≥15 years [27 ]. Insulin resistance (IR) is affected by age and pubertal status [28 (link)], but no Tanner stage data was available for all participants in the database. To assess the age-related associations of MetS and IR, all children were divided into three age groups (7–10, 11–13, and 14–18 for girls; 7–11, 12–14, and 15–18 for boys) to reflect the prepubertal, pubertal, and postpubertal stages, respectively, according to the Chinese classification [29 (link),30 (link),31 (link)]. Currently, no universal definition of IR is applicable in normal and overweight children, so we adopted the 75th percentile of the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA: fasting serum insulin (μU/mL) × fasting plasma glucose (mmol/L)/22.5) within each age group as the threshold of IR [5 (link),32 (link)]. The IR thresholds assessed by the HOMA index are listed in Table 1.
In this study, MetS and its components in children aged 7–18 years were defined according to the modified criteria of the NCEP-ATP III [6 (link)]. MetS was identified when three or more of the following five components were present: (1) abdominal obesity: a WC equal to or above the gender- and age-specific 90th percentile for Chinese children [33 (link)]; (2) elevated TG: a TG ≥110 mg/dL; (3) low HDL: a HDL ≤40 mg/dL; (4) elevated blood pressure: an SBP and/or a DBP ≥90th percentile for gender, age, and height [24 (link)]; (5) elevated fasting glucose: a glucose ≥110 mg/dL. Moreover, the IDF definition was also applied to explore the concordance with the NCEP-ATP III definition in children aged 10–18 years [8 (link)].

The genomes were assembled following the approach described in Chakraborty et al.22 (link). For all calculations of sequence coverage, a genome size of 130Mbp is assumed (G = 130 × 106 bp). For individual strain, we generated a hybrid assembly with DBG2OLC65 (link) and longest 30X PacBio reads, and a PacBio assembly with canu v1.366 (link) (Supplementary Data 3). The paired end Illumina reads were obtained from King et al.24 (link). The hybrid assemblies were merged with the PacBio only assemblies with quickmerge v0.222 (link),67 (l = 2 Mb, ml = 20000, hco = 5.0, c = 1.5), with the hybrid assembly being used as the query. Because the PacBio assembly sizes were closer to the genome size of D. melanogaster, we added the contigs that were present only in the PacBio only assembly but not the hybrid assembly by performing a second round of quickmerge67 . For the second round of quickmerge (l = 5 mb, ml = 20000, hco = 5.0, c = 1.5), the PacBio assembly was used as the query and the merged assembly from the first merging round the reference assembly. The resulting merged assembly was processed with finisherSC to remove the redundant sequences and additional gap filling using raw reads68 (link). The assemblies were then polished twice with quiver (SMRTanalysis v2.3.0p5) and once with Pilon v1.1669 (link) using the same Illumina reads as used for the hybrid assemblies.

Example 1

<Step (A): Synthesis of porous particle having glycidyl group>

27.8 g of glycidyl methacrylate (trade name: Blemmer G (registered trademark) manufactured by NOF Corporation), 11.3 g of glycerin-1,3-dimethacrylate (trade name: NK Ester 701, SHIN-NAKAMURA CHEMICAL Co., Ltd.), and 1.9 g of 2,2′-azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) were dissolved in 58.7 g of diethyl succinate as a diluent, and nitrogen gas was bubbled for 30 minutes to provide an oil phase.

Next, separately from the oil phase, 10.0 g of PVA-224 (manufactured by Kuraray Co., Ltd., polyvinyl alcohol having a degree of saponification of 87.0% to 89.0%) as a dispersion stabilizer and 10.0 g of sodium chloride as a salting-out agent were dissolved in 480 g of ion exchanged water to provide an aqueous phase.

The aqueous phase and the oil phase were placed in a separable flask and dispersed at a rotation speed of 430 rpm for 20 minutes using a stirring rod equipped with a half-moon stirring blade, then the inside of the reactor was purged with nitrogen, and the reaction was carried out at 60° C. for 16 hours.

After that, the resulting polymer was transferred onto a glass filter and thoroughly washed with hot water at about 50 to 80° C., denatured alcohol, and water in the order presented to obtain 100.4 g of a porous particle (carrier al).

The amount of glycidyl methacrylate used was 79.8 mol % based on the total amount of the monomers, and the amount of glycerin-1,3-dimethacrylate used was 20.2 mol % based on the total amount of the monomers.

<Step (B): Introduction reaction of alkylene group>

98 g of the carrier α1 was weighed onto a glass filter and thoroughly cleaned with diethylene glycol dimethyl ether. After cleaning, the carrier α1 was placed in a 1 L separable flask, 150 g of diethylene glycol dimethyl ether and 150 g (920 mol % based on glycidyl methacrylate) of 1,4-butanediol were placed in the separable flask, and stirring and dispersion were carried out.

After that, 1.5 ml of a boron trifluoride diethyl ether complex was added, the temperature was raised to 80° C. while stirring at 200 rpm, and the resulting mixture was subjected to the reaction for 4 hours.

The mixture was cooled, then the porous particle (carrier β1) bonded to a diol compound including an alkylene group in the structure thereof was collected by filtration and then washed with 1 L of ion exchanged water to obtain 152 g of a carrier β1.

The progress of the reaction was confirmed by the following procedure.

A part of the dry porous particle into which an alkylene group had been introduced was mixed with potassium bromide, and the resulting mixture was pelletized by applying a pressure and then measured using FT-IR (trade name: Nicolet (registered trademark) iS10, manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.) to check the height of an absorbance peak at 908 cm−1 due to the glycidyl group in the infrared absorption spectrum.

As a result, no absorbance peak at 908 cm−1 was observed by FT-IR.

<Step (C): Introduction Reaction of Glycidyl Group>

150 g of the carrier β1 was weighed onto a glass filter and thoroughly cleaned with dimethylsulfoxide.

After cleaning, the carrier β1 was placed in a separable flask, 262.5 g of dimethyl sulfoxide and 150 g of epichlorohydrin were added, the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature, 37.5 ml of a 30% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution (manufactured by KANTO CHEMICAL CO., INC.) was further added, and the resulting mixture was heated to 30° C. and stirred for 6 hours.

After completion of the reaction, the obtained product was transferred onto a glass filter and thoroughly washed with water, acetone, and water in the order presented to obtain 172 g of a porous particle into which a glycidyl group had been introduced (carrier γ1).

The introduction density of the glycidyl group in the obtained carrier γ1 was measured by the following procedure.

5.0 g of the carrier γ1 was sampled, and the dry mass thereof was measured and as a result, found to be 1.47 g. Next, the same amount of the carrier γ1 was weighed into a separable flask and dispersed in 40 g of water, 16 mL of diethylamine was added while stirring at room temperature, and the resulting mixture was heated to 50° C. and stirred for 4 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction product was transferred onto a glass filter and thoroughly washed with water to obtain a porous particle A into which diethylamine had been introduced.

The obtained porous particle A was transferred into a beaker and dispersed in 150 mL of a 0.5 mol/L potassium chloride aqueous solution, and titration was carried out using 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid with the point at which the pH reached 4.0 as the neutralization point.

From this, the amount of diethylamine introduced into the porous particle A into which diethylamine had been introduced was calculated, and the density of the glycidyl group of the carrier γ1 was calculated from the following expression.

As a result, the density of the glycidyl group was 880 μmol/g.
Density(μmol/g) of glycidyl group={0.1×volume(μL) of hydrochloric acid at neutralization point/dry mass(g) of porous particle into which glycidyl group has been introduced}<Step (D): Introduction Reaction of Polyol>

150 g of the carrier γ1, 600 mL of water, and 1000 g (13000 mol % based on glycidyl group) of D-sorbitol (log P=−2.20, manufactured by KANTO CHEMICAL CO., INC.) were placed in a 3 L separable flask and stirred to form a dispersion.

After that, 10 g of potassium hydroxide was added, the temperature was raised to 60° C. while stirring at 200 rpm, and the resulting mixture was subjected to the reaction for 15 hours.

The mixture was cooled, and then the reaction product was collected by filtration and washed thoroughly with water to obtain 152 g of a porous particle into which polyol had been introduced (carrier 61).

The obtained carrier 61 was classified into 16 to 37 μm using a sieve to obtain 140.5 g of a packing material 1.

<Evaluation of Alkali Resistance>

The alkali resistance was evaluated by calculating the amount of a carboxy group produced by hydrolysis of sodium hydroxide according to the following procedure.

First, 4 g of the packing material was dispersed in 150 mL of a 0.5 mol/L potassium chloride aqueous solution, and titration was carried out using 0.1 mol/L sodium hydroxide aqueous solution with the point at which the pH reached 7.0 as the neutralization point. From this, the amount of a carboxy group before hydrolysis included in the packing material was calculated from the following expression.
Amount(μmol/mL) of carboxy group=0.1×volume(μL) of sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at the time of neutralization/apparent volume (mL) of packing material

Here, the apparent volume of the packing material is the volume of the packing material phase measured after preparing a slurry liquid by dispersing 4 g of the packing material in water, transferring the slurry liquid to a graduated cylinder, and then allowing the same to stand for a sufficient time.

Subsequently, 4 g of the packing material was weighed into a separable flask, 20 mL of a 5 mol/L sodium hydroxide aqueous solution was added, and the resulting mixture was treated at 50° C. for 20 hours while stirring at 200 rpm. The mixture was cooled, then the packing material was collected by filtration, then washed with a 0.1 mol/L HCl aqueous solution and water in the order presented, and the amount of a carboxy group contained in the obtained packing material was calculated by the same method as above. From the difference between the amount of a carboxy group before and that after the reaction with the 5 mol/L sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, the amount of a carboxy group produced by the reaction with the 5 mol/L sodium hydroxide aqueous solution was calculated. As a result, the amount of a carboxy group produced was 21 μmol/mL.

If the amount of a carboxy group produced is 40 μmol/mL or less, the alkali resistance is considered to be high.

<Evaluation of Non-Specific Adsorption>

The obtained packing material was packed into a stainless steel column (manufactured by Sugiyama Shoji Co., Ltd.) having an inner diameter of 8 mm and a length of 300 mm by a balanced slurry method. Using the obtained column, a non-specific adsorption test was carried out by the method shown below.

Using the same sodium phosphate aqueous solution as the mobile phase as a solvent, their respective sample solutions of 0.7 mg/mL thyroglobulin (Mw of 6.7×105), 0.6 mg/mL γ-globulin (Mw of 1.6×105), 0.96 mg/mL BSA (Mw of 6.65×104), 0.7 mg/mL ribonuclease (Mw of 1.3×104), 0.4 mg/mL aprotinin (Mw of 6.5×103), and 0.02 mg/mL uridine (Mw of 244) (all manufactured by Merck Sigma-Aldrich) are prepared, and 10 μL of each is injected from the autosampler.

The elution time of each observed using the photodiode array detector at a wavelength of 280 nm was compared to confirm that there was no contradiction between the order of elution volume and the order of molecular weight size.

As a result, the elution volumes of the samples from the column packed with the packing material 1 were 8.713 mL, 9.691 mL, 9.743 mL, 10.396 mL, 11.053 mL, and 11.645 mL, and it was confirmed that there was no contradiction between the order of the molecular weights of the samples and the order of the elution volumes thereof and that no non-specific adsorption was induced. When there was no contradiction between the order of the molecular weights of the samples and the order of the elution volumes thereof, there was no non-specific adsorption, which is indicated as 0 in Table 1, and when there was a contradiction therebetween, non-specific adsorption was induced, which is thus indicated as X.

Packing into a stainless steel column using the obtained packing material 12 was attempted. However, the back pressure was high, making liquid feeding difficult, and this made it impossible to carry out the packing. Because of this, neither of the evaluations was able to be carried out.

Results of the above Examples and Comparative Examples are shown in Table 1.

From the above results, by adopting the configuration of the present invention, a packing material having suppressed non-specific adsorption and high alkali resistance can be obtained.

When no hydrophobic portion is provided or when the alkylene chain is short, the alkali resistance is low as shown in Comparative Examples 1 and 2. In addition, it was found that when the alkylene chain is too long or when no hydrophilic portion is provided, the hydrophobicity is strong, and non-specific adsorption is induced as shown in Comparative Examples 3 and 4. In addition, in Comparative Example 5 having many repeating units derived from a polyfunctional monomer, it was found that non-specific adsorption was induced, and in Comparative Example 6 having fewer repeating units derived from a polyfunctional monomer, it was found that the back pressure applied to the apparatus was high, making column packing difficult.

Anemia G 130 Hemoglobin A Woman
Anemia was defined according to World Health Organization recommendations: a serum hemoglobin level of <130 g/L for men and <120 g/L for women (24 ). The hemoglobin level was determined at admission. The MI was confirmed in patients by a history of chest pain, diagnostic electrocardiographic changes, and serial elevations of cardiac biomarkers (above the 99th percentile URL in our laboratory) according to published guidelines (25 –27 (link)). The Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 3a bleeding criteria were used (28 (link)). Renal dysfunction was defined as a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of less than 60 ml/kg/1.73 m2. The ventricular ejection fraction was assessed by bedside echocardiography in the first 48 h after admission. Heart failure was defined according to clinical criteria (bilateral pulmonary rales, S3 gallop, edema) and/or pulmonary edema on chest X-ray and/or ejection fraction <30%. The diagnosis of cardiogenic shock (CS) was made based on the accepted definition of a systolic blood pressure ≤90 mm Hg for ≥30 min or the need for supportive measures to maintain a systolic blood pressure of >90 mm Hg, clinical signs of pulmonary congestion, and signs of end-organ hypoperfusion.

For mask generation, it is necessary to determine the cut-off values for positive IF signals and remove false-positive signals due to artifacts, registration errors, or non-specific signals from blood cells.
Inconsistencies between the intensities of the DAPI nuclear channel in the IF image and the hematoxylin component in the H&E-stained image, indicating the existence of artifacts or registration errors, were detected by calculating the Pearson’s correlation coefficient between the two signal intensities. Patches with correlation coefficients below 0.5 were removed for further analysis. False-positive signals derived from the autofluorescence of RBCs were removed by masking the positively predicted regions using the RBC segmentation neural network trained on the anti-CD235a antibody-stained dataset. Based on visual inspection, an IF signal intensity >50 (epithelium, smooth muscle, and RBCs) or 25 (others) was regarded as a positive signal in the initial mask generation step.
For the epithelium and smooth muscle, the positive signal area was used as a segmentation mask without modification. For RBCs, the area that was positive in the IF image and red in the H&E-stained image (R > 100 and G < 130, and R > B) was used as a segmentation mask. For leukocytes, myeloid cells, lymphocytes, plasma cells, and endothelial cells, positive signals from the target cells were transferred into the nuclei based on the IF staining pattern to obtain a more consistent result and improve the interpretability of the segmentation model. Cellpose version 0.6.519 (link) was applied to the DAPI nuclear channel in the IF images to detect the nuclei. We selected a model with the following parameters: diameter = 30, channels = [3,0], batch_size = 64, and cellprob_threshold = 0.1. Nuclei were masked if over 40% of them contained positive signals. Finally, one iteration of morphological erosion with a 3 × 3 kernel was applied to each region of the nuclei to prevent multiple cells from sticking together, which could cause an underestimation of the cell count.
For deep neural network training during the mask generation process, all patches were divided into training, validation, or test sets so that all patches from the same TMA spot belonged to the same set. TMA spots in each TMA were detected as clusters by applying the DBSCAN clustering algorithm40 implemented in scikit-learn to patches using the x and y coordinates as the input features, maximum distance set to 3,000 pixels, and min_samples set to 5. The validation and test sets contained patches from two TMA spots in each TMA slide, and the rest were placed into the training set. For deep neural network training after mask generation, we moved the training/validation patches from the patient in the test set to the test set and training patches from the patients in the validation set to the validation set, so that the patches from the same patient did not span the training/validation/test sets.

According to the WHO diagnostic criteria, anemia is defined as a hemoglobin level of <130 g/L in males or < 120 g/L in females. To more comprehensively investigate the association of anemia with the death risk of PLWHA, anemia was further classified into two categories, in which hemoglobin from 110 to 129 g/L in males or 110 to 119 g/L in females was defined as mild anemia, and moderate or severe anemia was defined as hemoglobin <110 g/L (18 ).
