Diagnostic biomarkers for early detection of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are in great need. In the present study, we compared the serum protein profiles of patients with small RCC to those of healthy individuals to identify the differentially expressed proteins with potential to serve as biomarkers. Serum samples were collected from 10 patients with small RCC and 10 healthy individuals. The serum protein expression profiles were analyzed by two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis. Twenty-seven proteins with differences in expression levels between RCC patients and healthy volunteers were identified. Of these, 19 were expressed at different levels and eight were expressed in serum from the RCC group, but not from the control group. Six differentially expressed proteins identified by using mass spectrometry included coagulation factor XIII B, complement C3 and its precursor, misato homolog 1 (isoform CRA_b), hemopexin, and alpha-1-B-glycoprotein. Some of these serum proteins are known regulators of tumor progression in human malignancies. In conclusion, we successfully applied 2-D gel electrophoresis and identified six serum proteins differentially expressed between patients with small RCC and healthy volunteers. These proteins may provide novel biomarkers for early detection and diagnosis of human RCC.  相似文献

毛干是一种案件现场常见的生物物证,由于核DNA含量极少且高度降解,难以采用现有的短串联重复序列(short tandem repeat,STR)检验方法进行个人识别鉴定,目前仅使用线粒体DNA检验进行母系亲缘关系的判定,利用率非常低.毛干中蛋白质非常稳定,而且具有遗传多态性,表现为基因组中的非同义单核苷酸多态性(non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms,ns SNPs),转录翻译后形成蛋白质序列中的单氨基酸多态性(single amino acid polymorphisms,SAPs).充分利用毛干蛋白质中蕴含的遗传信息,为案件提供线索和证据,是实际公安业务的迫切需求,具有重要的应用价值.本文选取了104份中国汉族的毛干样本进行蛋白质组的检测,共获得了703个SAP位点,位于460个蛋白质上,共推导出552个nsSNP位点.进一步筛选在所有样本中检出率超过15%的位点,获得了88个nsSNP位点,使用毛干样本对应的口腔拭子DNA对88个ns SNP位点进行一代测序验证.为评估发现的nsSNP位点对于人群的区分能力,以千人数据库(1 000 Genome Project)为参考数据库,采用聚类分析和群体匹配概率等方法对检测的19份毛干样本进行人群来源推断.结果显示,通过检测毛干蛋白质组中的ns SNP可以实现东亚、欧洲、非洲三大洲际人群的区分.  相似文献

To investigate aberrant plasma proteins in lung cancer, we compared the proteomic profiles of serum from five lung cancer patients and from four healthy volunteers. Immuno-affinity chromatography was used to deplete highly abundant plasma proteins, and the resulting plasma samples were separated into eight fractions by anion-exchange chromatography. Quantitative protein profiles of the fractionated samples were generated by two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis, in which the experimental samples and the internal control samples were labeled with different dyes and co-separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This approach succeeded in resolving 3890 protein spots. For 364 of the protein spots, the expression level in lung cancer was more than twofold different from that in the healthy volunteers. These differences were statistically significant (Student's t-test, p-value less than 0.05). Mass spectrometric protein identification revealed that the 364 protein spots corresponded to 58 gene products, including the classical plasma proteins and the tissue-leakage proteins catalase, clusterin, ficolin, gelsolin, lumican, tetranectin, triosephosphate isomerase and vitronectin. The combination of multi-dimensional liquid chromatography and two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis provides a valuable tool for serum proteomics in lung cancer.  相似文献

We have characterized the subcellular distribution of S100A3, a cysteine-rich calcium binding protein, in human scalp hair shaft. This was accomplished using rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry, a technique that combines rapid-freezing, freeze-substitution fixation without chemical fixatives, and subsequent electron microscopic detection of immunocytochemical labeling. This technique preserves both the antigenicity and the ultrastructural integrity of fully keratinized tissues, which are highly unmanageable when prepared for immunoelectron microscopy. In the hair shaft, S100A3 was primarily identified in the endocuticle and was also present in the intermacrofibrillar matrix surrounding macrofibril bundles of intermediate filament keratins in cortex cells. Double immunolabeling of S100A3 and hair keratins revealed the in situ spatial relationship between them. In the endocuticle, S100A3 was present on the inner portion of the endocuticle adjacent to the cell membrane complex, whereas hair keratins were present on the outer portion. These results provide the first ultrastructural evidence that an S100 protein is localized in specific subcompartments in human hair cells. (J Histochem Cytochem 47:525-532, 1999)  相似文献

Behcet's disease (BD) is a multisystemic autoimmune disease with unclear etiology and pathogenesis. To screen aberrant serum proteins in BD, serum samples were obtained from eight male BD patients with active uveitis and eight male healthy volunteers with informed consent. The serum samples from active BD patients and normal controls were pooled. Highly abundant serum proteins (albumin and IgG) were depleted from these two samples using an affinity capture based kit. The obtained samples were subjected to two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). Protein spots were visualized with the "blue silver" staining. Differently expressed proteins were subsequently identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption /ionization tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS). Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were performed using the serum samples from 18 patients with active BD, 6 patients with inactive BD, 22 patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome, and 20 healthy volunteers to validate the results of 2-DE and MS. Proteomic profiles of the pooled samples were compared, and approximately 800 protein spots were observed in each of the gels. Expression levels of four of the protein spots in active BD were significantly higher than those in the normal controls. Mass spectrometric protein identification revealed that the four protein spots corresponded to two proteins: haptoglobin (Hp) and serum amyloid A (SAA). Western blot and ELISA showed that Hp was only overexpressed in active BD but not in inactive BD, VKH syndrome, or healthy controls. An obvious band of SAA was detected in 72.2% of the serum samples from BD patients, whereas a vague band of this protein was found in 10.0% of the tested normal samples and 9.1% of VKH samples. Our results revealed a significantly increased expression of Hp and SAA in serum of active BD patients. These two proteins may be involved in the development of BD.  相似文献

Young meristematic plant cells contain a large number of small vacuoles, while the largest part of the vacuome in mature cells is composed by a large central vacuole, occupying 80% to 90% of the cell volume. Thus far, only a limited number of vacuolar membrane proteins have been identified and characterized. The proteomic approach is a powerful tool to identify new vacuolar membrane proteins. To analyze vacuoles from growing tissues we isolated vacuoles from cauliflower (Brassica oleracea) buds, which are constituted by a large amount of small cells but also contain cells in expansion as well as fully expanded cells. Here we show that using purified cauliflower vacuoles and different extraction procedures such as saline, NaOH, acetone, and chloroform/methanol and analyzing the data against the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) database 102 cauliflower integral proteins and 214 peripheral proteins could be identified. The vacuolar pyrophosphatase was the most prominent protein. From the 102 identified proteins 45 proteins were already described. Nine of these, corresponding to 46% of peptides detected, are known vacuolar proteins. We identified 57 proteins (55.9%) containing at least one membrane spanning domain with unknown subcellular localization. A comparison of the newly identified proteins with expression profiles from in silico data revealed that most of them are highly expressed in young, developing tissues. To verify whether the newly identified proteins were indeed localized in the vacuole we constructed and expressed green fluorescence protein fusion proteins for five putative vacuolar membrane proteins exhibiting three to 11 transmembrane domains. Four of them, a putative organic cation transporter, a nodulin N21 family protein, a membrane protein of unknown function, and a senescence related membrane protein were localized in the vacuolar membrane, while a white-brown ATP-binding cassette transporter homolog was shown to reside in the plasma membrane. These results demonstrate that proteomic analysis of highly purified vacuoles from specific tissues allows the identification of new vacuolar proteins and provides an additional view of tonoplastic proteins.  相似文献

This study was aimed to examine the risk of chronic arsenic (As) exposure for the residents living in Nui Phao, Thai Nguyen in the northern Vietnam. Groundwater, vegetables, human hair, and nail samples were collected from volunteers living in Nui Phao. The results revealed that 75% of the groundwater samples had As exceeding the World Health Organization (WHO) drinking water guideline of 10 µg L?1. The result of As concentration for most of the vegetable samples was greater than the WHO/FAO safe (0.1?mg kg?1). The result of hair and nail samples in this study showed that 3.5 and 20% of the samples had As concentration exceeding the level of As toxicity in hair and nails, respectively. The result of health risks indicated that the potential health risk of As contamination is greater for groundwater than vegetables. The total hazard quotient (HQ) value through vegetables ingestion and drinking water exceeded 1.0 suggesting potential health risk for local residents. The calculation of potential carcinogenic risk through both consumption of vegetables and drinking water was low cancer risk in adults. Other food sources and the exposure pathways are needed to exactly assess health risks in this area.  相似文献

Nod factors are lipo-chito-oligosaccharides secreted by rhizobia that initiate many responses in the root hairs of the legume hosts, culminating in deformed hairs. The heterotrimeric G-protein agonists mastoparan, Mas7, melittin, compound 48/80 and cholera toxin provoke root hair deformation, whereas the heterotrimeric G-protein antagonist pertussis toxin inhibits mastoparan and Nod factor NodNGR[S]- (from Rhizobiumsp. NGR234) induced root hair deformation. Another heterotrimeric G-protein antagonist, isotetrandrine, only inhibited root hair deformation provoked by mastoparan and melittin. These results support the notion that G-proteins are implicated in Nod factor signalling. To study the role of G-proteins at a biochemical level, we examined the GTP-binding profiles of root microsomal membrane fractions isolated from the nodulation competent zone of Vigna unguiculata(L.) Walp. GTP competitively bound to the microsomal membrane fractions labelled with [(35)S]GTPgammaS, yielding a two-site displacement curve with displacement constants ( K(i)) of 0.58 micro M and 0.16 mM. Competition with either ATP or GDP revealed a one-site displacement curve with K(i) of 4.4 and 29 micro M, respectively, whereas ADP and UTP were ineffective competitors. The GTP-binding profiles of microsomal membrane fractions isolated from roots pretreated with either NodNGR[S] or the four-sugar, N- N'- N"- N'"-tetracetylchitotetraose (TACT) backbone of Nod factors were significantly altered compared with control microsomal fractions. To identify candidate proteins, membrane proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and electrotransferred to nitrocellulose. GTP overlay experiments revealed that membrane fractions isolated from roots pretreated with NodNGR[S] or TACT contained two proteins (28 kDa and 25 kDa) with a higher affinity for GTPgammaS than control membrane fractions. Western analysis demonstrated that membranes from the pretreated roots contained more of another protein (~55 kDa) recognised by Galpha(common) antisera. These results provide pharmacological and biochemical evidence supporting the contention that G-proteins are involved in Nod factor signalling and, importantly, implicate monomeric G-proteins in this process.  相似文献

Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are keys in biomass aggregation and settleability in wastewater treatment systems. In membrane bioreactors (MBR), EPS are an important factor as they are considered to be largely responsible for membrane fouling. Proteins were shown to be the major component of EPS produced by activated sludge and to be correlated with the properties of the sludge, like settling, hydrophobicity and cell aggregation. Previous EPS proteomic studies of activated sludge revealed several problems, like the interference of other EPS molecules in protein analysis. In this study, a successful strategy was outlined to identify the proteins from soluble and bound EPS extracted from activated sludge of a lab-scale MBR. EPS samples were first subjected to pre-concentration through lyophilisation, centrifugal ultrafiltration or concentration with a dialysis membrane coated by a highly absorbent powder of polyacrylate-polyalcohol, preceded or not by a dialysis step. The highest protein concentration factors were achieved with the highly absorbent powder method without previous dialysis step. Four protein precipitation methods were then tested: acetone, trichloroacetic acid (TCA), perchloric acid and a commercial kit. Protein profiles were compared in 4–12 % sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gels. Both acetone and TCA should be applied for the highest coverage for soluble EPS proteins, whereas TCA was the best method for bound EPS proteins. All visible bands of selected profiles were subjected to mass spectrometry analysis. A high number of proteins (25–32 for soluble EPS and 17 for bound EPS) were identified. As a conclusion of this study, a workflow is proposed for the successful proteome characterisation of soluble and bound EPS from activated sludge samples.  相似文献

Hair follicle cycling can be divided into the following three stages: anagen, catagen, and telogen. The molecular signals that orchestrate the follicular transition between phases are still unknown. To better understand the detailed protein networks controlling this process, proteomics and bioinformatics analyses were performed to construct comparative protein profiles of mouse skin at specific time points (0, 8, and 20 days). Ninety-five differentially expressed protein spots were identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF as 44 proteins, which were found to change during hair follicle cycle transition. Proteomics analysis revealed that these changes in protein expression are involved in Ca2+-regulated biological processes, migration, and regulation of signal transduction, among other processes. Subsequently, three proteins were selected to validate the reliability of expression patterns using western blotting. Cluster analysis revealed three expression patterns, and each pattern correlated with specific cell processes that occur during the hair cycle. Furthermore, bioinformatics analysis indicated that the differentially expressed proteins impacted multiple biological networks, after which detailed functional analyses were performed. Taken together, the above data may provide insight into the three stages of mouse hair follicle morphogenesis and provide a solid basis for potential therapeutic molecular targets for this hair disease.  相似文献

The halotolerant alga Dunaliella salina is a recognized model photosynthetic organism for studying plant adaptation to high salinity. The adaptation mechanisms involve major changes in the proteome composition associated with energy metabolism and carbon and iron acquisition. To clarify the molecular basis for the remarkable resistance to high salt, we performed a comprehensive proteomics analysis of the plasma membrane. Plasma membrane proteins were recognized by tagging intact cells with a membrane-impermeable biotin derivative. Proteins were resolved by two-dimensional blue native/SDS-PAGE and identified by nano-LC-MS/MS. Of 55 identified proteins, about 60% were integral membrane or membrane-associated proteins. We identified novel surface coat proteins, lipid-metabolizing enzymes, a new family of membrane proteins of unknown function, ion transporters, small GTP-binding proteins, and heat shock proteins. The abundance of 20 protein spots increased and that of two protein spots decreased under high salt. The major salt-regulated proteins were implicated in protein and membrane structure stabilization and within signal transduction pathways. The migration profiles of native protein complexes on blue native gels revealed oligomerization or co-migration of major surface-exposed proteins, which may indicate mechanisms of stabilization at high salinity.  相似文献

The plasma membrane of a cyanobacterial cell is crucial as barrier against the outer medium. It is also an energy-transducing membrane as well as essential for biogenesis of cyanobacterial photosystems and the endo-membrane system. Previously we have identified 57 different proteins in the plasma membrane of control cells from Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6803. In the present work, proteomic screening of salt-stress proteins in the plasma membrane resulted in identification of 109 proteins corresponding to 66 different gene products. Differential and quantitative analyses of 2-DE profiles of plasma membranes isolated from both control and salt-acclimated cells revealed that twenty proteins were enhanced/induced and five reduced during salt stress. More than half of the enhanced/induced proteins were periplasmic binding proteins of ABC-transporters or hypothetical proteins. Proteins that exhibited the highest enhancement during salt stress include FutA1 (Slr1295) and Vipp1 (Sll0617), which have been suggested to be involved in protection of photosystem II under iron deficiency and in thylakoid membrane formation, respectively. Other salt-stress proteins were regulatory proteins such as PII protein, LrtA, and a protein that belongs to CheY subfamily. The physiological significance of the identified salt-stress proteins in the plasma membrane is discussed integrating our current knowledge on cyanobacterial stress physiology.  相似文献

Cyanobacteria are the only prokaryotes possessing plasma, thylakoid, and outer membranes. The plasma membrane of a cyanobacterial cell is essential for the biogenesis of cyanobacterial photosystems and serves as a barrier against environmental stress. We previously identified dozens of salt-responsive proteins in the plasma membrane of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Five histidine kinases (Hiks) including Hik33 were also proposed to be involved in the perception of salt stress in Synechocystis. In this study, we analyzed proteomic profiles of the plasma membrane from a hik33-knockout mutant (ΔHik33) under normal and salt-stress conditions. Using 2D-DIGE followed by mass spectrometry analysis, we identified 26 differentially expressed proteins in ΔHik33 mutant cells. Major changes, due to the Hik33 mutation, included the substrate-binding proteins of ABC transporters, such as GgtB and FutA1, regulatory proteins including MorR and Rre13, as well as several hypothetical proteins. Under salt-stress conditions, the Hik33 mutation reduced levels of 7 additional proteins, such as NrtA, nitrate/sulfonate/bicarbonate-binding protein and LexA, and enhanced levels of 9 additional proteins including SphX. These observations suggest a substantial rearrangement in the plasma membrane proteome of Synechocystis due to the loss of hik33. Furthermore, a comprehensive molecular network was revealed in ΔHik33 mutant coping with salt stress.  相似文献

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR), the primary cell surface targets of nicotine, have implications in various neurological disorders. Here we investigate the proteome‐wide effects of nicotine on human haploid cell lines (wildtype HAP1 and α7KO‐HAP1) to address differences in nicotine‐induced protein abundance profiles between these cell lines. We performed an SPS‐MS3‐based TMT10‐plex experiment arranged in a 2‐3‐2‐3 design with two replicates of the untreated samples and three of the treated samples for each cell line. We quantified 8775 proteins across all ten samples, of which several hundred differed significantly in abundance. Comparing α7KO‐HAP1 and HAP1wt cell lines to each other revealed significant protein abundance alterations; however, we also measured differences resulting from nicotine treatment in both cell lines. Among proteins with increased abundance levels due to nicotine treatment included those previously identified: APP, APLP2, and ITM2B. The magnitude of these changes was greater in HAP1wt compared to the α7KO‐HAP1 cell line, implying a potential role for the α7 nAChR in HAP1 cells. Moreover, the data revealed that membrane proteins and proteins commonly associated with neurons were predominant among those with altered abundance. This study, which is the first TMT‐based proteome profiling of HAP1 cells, defines further the effects of nicotine on non‐neuronal cellular proteomes.  相似文献

Proteome analysis of human hepatocellular carcinoma was conducted using two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis, and the protein expression profiles were compared to the mRNA expression profiles made from serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) in identical samples from a single patient. Image-to-image analysis of protein abundances together with protein identification by peptide mass fingerprinting yielded the protein expression profiles. A total of 188 proteins were identified, and the expression profiles of 164 proteins which had the corresponding SAGE data were compared to the mRNA expression profiles. Among them, 40 proteins showed significant differences in the mRNA expression levels between non HCC and HCC. We compared expression changes of proteins with those of mRNAs. We found that the expression tendency of 24 proteins were similar to that of mRNA, whereas 16 proteins showed different or opposite tendency to the mRNA expression.  相似文献

Membrane proteins play essential roles in various cellular processes, such as nutrient transport, bioenergetic processes, cell adhesion, and signal transduction. Proteomics is one of the key approaches to exploring membrane proteins comprehensively. Bottom–up proteomics using LC–MS/MS has been widely used in membrane proteomics. However, the low abundance and hydrophobic features of membrane proteins, especially integral membrane proteins, make it difficult to handle the proteins and are the bottleneck for identification by LC–MS/MS. Herein, to improve the identification and quantification of membrane proteins, we have stepwisely evaluated methods of membrane enrichment for the sample preparation. The enrichment methods of membranes consisted of precipitation by ultracentrifugation and treatment by urea or alkaline solutions. The best enrichment method in the study, washing with urea after isolation of the membranes, resulted in the identification of almost twice as many membrane proteins compared with samples without the enrichment. Notably, the method significantly enhances the identified numbers of multispanning transmembrane proteins, such as solute carrier transporters, ABC transporters, and G-protein–coupled receptors, by almost sixfold. Using this method, we revealed the profiles of amino acid transport systems with the validation by functional assays and found more protein–protein interactions, including membrane protein complexes and clusters. Our protocol uses standard procedures in biochemistry, but the method was efficient for the in-depth analysis of membrane proteome in a wide range of samples.  相似文献
