We sought to investigate protein biomarkers for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in vaginal tissues using Surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF MS) and examine if this is a reliable methodology to examine proteins in small tissue specimens. We compared protein expression profile of vaginal tissue from women with SUI and continent controls. A 22.6 kDa peak was identified by subsequent weak cation-exchange, reverse-phase fractionation, gel electrophoresis, trypsin digestion, then analyzed by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS) and MALDI MS-MS. Biomarker identity and expression level were confirmed by Western-blotting and immunohistochemistry. Expression of the 22.6 kDa protein, identified as SM-22α, was significantly higher in women with SUI versus controls. A 3×3mm tissue sample was sufficient for identification. Western blot/immunohistochemistry confirmed the SELDI-TOS MS findings. SM-22α, a marker for myofibroblasts, was identified as a biomarker of SUI. Differential protein profiling by SELDI-TOF MS is a powerful and reliable tool for urogynecological research since it allows us to study an array of proteins simultaneously using small tissue samples.
