Isolation and comparison of Aβ proteoforms from human AD brain. Workflow for isolation of endogenous Aβ proteoforms. Cortical tissue was dounce homogenized with sub-critical micelle concentration of CHAPS followed by differential ultracentrifugation, anti-Aβ dual antibody immunoprecipitation, and elution in neat formic acid. Immunoprecipitated Aβ proteoforms in the HMW soluble aggregates fractions and more insoluble fractions were precipitated and purified from undigested non-Aβ proteins using C8 TopTips and analyzed by nLC-MS/MS. RCF, relative centrifugal force; Sol., soluble; LMW, low molecular weight; HMW, high molecular weight; IP, immunoprecipitation; pptn., precipitation; SPE, solid phase extraction.
