Although the toxicogenomics of kojic acid treated A375 human malignant melanoma cells has been elucidated, the proteomics of cellular response is still poorly understood. We performed proteomic analysis to investigate the anticancer effect of kojic acid on protein expression profile in A375 cells. A375 cells were treated with kojic acid at 8 microg/mL for 24, 48, and 72 h. With the use of 2-D PAGE and MALDI-Q-TOF MS and MS/MS analyses, proteomic profiles of A375 cells between control and kojic acid treatment were compared, and 30 differentially expressed proteins, containing 2 up-regulated proteins and 28 down-regulated proteins, were identified. Among these proteins, 17 isoforms of 5 identical proteins were observed and 11 chaperone proteins showed the high proportion of protein spots with 36.7% of total proteins. Bioinformatic tools were used to search for protein function and prediction of protein interaction. Sixteen differentially expressed proteins exhibited interaction network linked to the downstream regulations of p53 tumor suppressor and cell apoptosis, which may lead to suppress the melanogenesis and tumorigenesis of kojic acid treated A375 cells. In addition, GRP75, VIME and 2AAA were validated by Western blot analysis, whereas GRP75, 2AAA, HS90B, ENPL and KPYM were validated by RT-PCR. Therefore, these proteins play the important roles in cancer progression and may be potential biomarkers that are useful for diagnostic and therapeutic applications of malignant melanoma cancer.  相似文献

Angiogenesis is an essential process in physiological and pathological processes and is well-regulated to maintain the cellular homeostasis by balancing the endothelial cells in proliferation and apoptosis. Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) regulates angiogenesis as a ligand of Tie 2 receptor tyrosine kinase. However, the regulation pathways are not well-understood. To date, only a few of the signaling molecules involved in the Tie 2 receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated angiogenesis have been identified. In this study, we systematically identified tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in Ang1-induced signaling cascade in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), employing proteomic analyses combining two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, Western analysis using phosphotyrosine antibody and mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS and nanoLC-ESI-q-TOF tandem MS). We report here the identification, semiquantitative analysis, and kinetic changes of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in response to Ang1 in HUVECs and identified 66 proteins among 69 protein spots showing significant changes. Of these, p54nrb was validated as a molecule involved in cell migration. These results suggest that Ang1 induces stabilization of neo-vessel network by regulating the phosphorylations of metabolic and structural proteins.  相似文献

Suberonylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) is an orally administered histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI) that has shown significant antitumour activity in a variety of tumour cells. To identify proteins involved in its antitumour activity, we utilized a proteomic approach to reveal protein expression changes in the human cervical cancer cell line HeLa following SAHA treatment. Protein expression profiles were analysed by 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and protein identification was performed on a MALDI-Q-TOF MS/MS instrument. As a result, a total of nine differentially expressed proteins were visualized by 2-DE and Coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) staining. Further, all the changed proteins were positively identified via mass spectrometry (MS)/MS analysis. Of these, PGAM1 was significantly downregulated in HeLa cells after treatment with SAHA. Moreover, PGAM1 has been proven to be downregulated in another cervical cancer cell line (CaSki) by western blot analysis. Together, using proteomic tools, we identified several differentially expressed proteins that underwent SAHA-induced apoptosis. These changed proteins may provide some clues to a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying SAHA-induced apoptosis in cervical cancer.  相似文献

The endothelium is a single layer of cells lining the inside face of all blood vessels. It constitutes a major metabolic organ which is critically involved in the generation and the regulation of multiple physiological and pathological processes such as coagulation, hemostasis, inflammation, atherosclerosis, angiogenesis and cancerous metastasis dissemination. In order to increase our knowledge about the protein content and the main biological pathways of human vascular endothelial cells, we have undertaken the proteomic analysis of the most explored present endothelial cell model, i.e. primocultures of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Using low levels of protein loads (~ 30 nug), the association of two-dimensional electrophoresis with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and database interrogations allowed us to identify 53 proteins of suspected endothelial origin in quiescent HUVECs. Beside cytoskeletal proteins such as actin, tubulin, tropomyosin and vimentin, we identified various proteins more especially implicated in cellular motility and plasticity (e.g. cofilin, F-actin capping protein and prefoldin), in regulation of apoptosis and senescence (protease inhibitor 9, glucose related proteins, heat shock proteins, thioredoxin peroxidase, nucleophosmin) as well as other proteins implicated in coagulation (annexin V, high mobility group protein), antigen presentation (valosin containing protein and ubiquitin carboxyl terminal hydrolase isozyme L1) and enzymatic capabilities (glutathione-S-transferase, protein disulfide isomerases, lactate deshydrogenase). The presented annotated 2-D maps of HUVECs will be soon available on the web at http://www. huvec.com.  相似文献

Previously, we reported that nucleophosmin (NPM) was increased in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). NPM is a phosphoprotein related to apoptosis, ribosome biogenesis, mitosis, and DNA repair, but details about its function remain unclear. We treated U87MG and A172 cells with small interference RNA (siRNA) and obtained a reduction of 80% in NPM1 expression. Knockdown at the protein level was evident after the 4th day and was maintained until the 7th day of transfection that was investigated by quantitative proteomic analysis using isobaric tags. The comparison of proteomic analysis of NPM1-siRNA against controls allowed the identification of 14 proteins, two proteins showed increase and 12 presented a reduction of expression levels. Gene ontology assigned most of the hypoexpressed proteins to apoptosis regulation, including GRP78. NPM1 silencing did not impair cell proliferation until the 7th day after transfection, but sensitized U87MG cells to temozolomide (TMZ), culminating with an increase in cell death and provoking at a later period a reduction of colony formation. In a large data set of GBM patients, both GRP78 and NPM1 genes were upregulated and presented a tendency to shorter overall survival time. In conclusion, NPM proved to participate in the apoptotic process, sensitizing TMZ-treated U87MG and A172 cells to cell death, and in association with upregulation of GRP78 may be helpful as a predictive factor of poor prognosis in GBM patients.  相似文献

Sodium butyrate (NaBu) is known to enhance the specific productivity of Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing human thrombopoietin. In order to better understand the intracellular responses of these cells resulting from NaBu treatment, the proteomic profiles of cells treated with various concentrations of NaBu (0-3mM) were compared using two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE). Based on spot intensities, 80 high intensity protein spots were selected. Fifty-six of the 80 protein spots, which represent 28 different kinds of proteins, were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS and MS/MS. Compared to control without NaBu treatment, the expression levels of 2 proteins (glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP 78) and peroxiredoxin 4) were increased over two fold with NaBu treatment and the expression level of phosphopyruvate hydratase was decreased over two fold with NaBu treatment. Due to multiplicity (multiple spots for one protein), a change in one single spot intensity from a 2-DE gel image may not represent the total change in expression level for that protein. Western blot analyses of GRP78, HSC70 and ERp57 confirmed the results of the MS analyses. However, a degree of change in expression level differed between the two methods, suggesting the necessity of a validating method to determine the total amount of the protein.  相似文献

Bacillus anthracis, a gram-positive, endospore-forming, aerobic rod-shaped bacterium, interacts with macrophages at various stages of the disease. Spore germination and the outgrowth of vegetative bacilli are crucial steps enabling the bacteria to proliferate actively and to synthesize the virulence factors leading to a massive septicemia. In this study, we performed a proteomic analysis and MALDI-TOF/MS were carried out to identify proteins using human macrophages infected with the spores of B. anthracis live-Sterne or inactivated-Sterne. We identified 21 proteins which are related to the infection of B. anthracis spores on human macrophages at the early stage events. These proteins function in processes such as cytoskeleton regulation, apoptosis, cell division, and protein degradation. Proteins such as PAK 2 revealed a relationship to apoptosis in human macrophages. These proteins play an important role in the macrophage survival and death on human macrophages with infected B. anthracis spores.  相似文献

Rosiglitazone, one of the thiazolidinedione (TZD), is an oral antidiabetic drug that activates a gamma isoform of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARγ). To identify target proteins induced by rosiglitazone in adipocytes, we first performed simultaneous in-depth proteomic profiling of cytosolic proteins and secreted proteins (secretome) from 3T3-L1 adipocytes using a label-free quantification method with nano-UPLC MS/MS. In total, we identified 646 proteins from 3T3-L1 adipocytes, of which 172 and 162 proteins were upregulated and downregulated >1.5-fold, respectively, in rosiglitazone-treated cells, as compared to controls. Some differentially expressed proteins in particular, including fatty acid translocase (FAT)/CD36, fatty acid binding protein, lipoprotein lipase, acetyl CoA acyltransferase, carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 2, sterol carrier protein, adiponectin, and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase could explain the current action mechanism of TZDs. Furthermore, this study is the first to report on two potential target proteins of rosiglitazone, such as adenomatosis polyposis coli 2 (APC2), and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A-1 (eIF5A) related to apoptosis and cell division. Our data clearly suggest that in-depth proteomic approaches using cytosolic and secreted proteins are important and necessary for identification of drug targets at the protein level.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to isolate and identify proteins involved in the process of spermatogenesis. To achieve this goal we used the technique of proteomic analysis. Comparison of testis protein patterns obtained by high-resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis from 1-week- and 7-week-old mice showed significant differences in protein spot intensities. Subsequently several of these variant protein spots were identified by mass spectrometry. Glucose-regulated protein (GRP) 78 (Bip) was one of them. GRP78, expressed at a lower level in 1-week-old mouse testes compared to 7-week-old mouse testes, is a member of the heat shock 70 protein family. It has recently been shown to be important for protecting cells from apoptosis in somatic cells, especially in progressively growing tumor cells. Further, immunohistochemical (IHC) analyses of mouse and human testes sections were performed to determine the cellular distribution of this protein. A strong GRP78 staining was seen beginning with pachytene spermatocytes. These findings suggested that GRP78 might perform an important function in the process of spermatogenesis.The first two authors contributed equally to the work.

Identification of the cellular proteins interacting with incompletely folded and unfolded forms of erythropoietin (EPO) in recombinant CHO (rCHO) cells leads to better insight into the possible genetic manipulation approaches for increasing EPO production. To do so, a pull‐down assay was performed with dual‐tagged (N‐terminal GST‐ and C‐terminal hexahistidine‐tagged) EPO expressed in E. coli as bait proteins and cell lysates of rCHO cells (DG44) as prey proteins. Cellular proteins interacting with dual‐tagged EPO were then resolved by two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) and identified by MALDI‐TOF MS/MS. A total of 27 protein spots including glucose‐regulated protein 78 (GRP78) were successfully identified. Western blot analysis of GRP78 confirmed the results of the MS analyses. Taken together, a pull‐down assay followed by a proteomic approach is found to be an efficient means to identify cellular proteins interacting with foreign protein in rCHO cells. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Mammalian cell cultures used for biopharmaceutical production undergo various dynamic biological changes over time, including the transition of cells from an exponential growth phase to a stationary phase during cell culture. To better understand the dynamic aspects of cell culture, a quantitative proteomics approach was used to identify dynamic trends in protein expression over the course of a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell culture for the production of a recombinant monoclonal antibody and overexpressing the antiapoptotic gene Bcl-xl. Samples were analyzed using a method incorporating iTRAQ labeling, two-dimensional LC/MS, and linear regression calculations to identify significant dynamic trends in protein abundance. Using this approach, 59 proteins were identified with significant temporal changes in expression. Pathway analysis tools were used to identify a putative network of proteins associated with cell growth and apoptosis. Among the differentially expressed proteins were molecular chaperones and isomerases, such as GRP78 and PDI, and reported cell growth markers MCM2 and MCM5. In addition, two proteins with growth-regulating properties, transglutaminase-2 and clusterin, were identified. These proteins are associated with tumor proliferation and apoptosis and were observed to be expressed at relatively high levels during stationary phase, which was confirmed by western blotting. The proteomic methodology described here provides a dynamic view of protein expression throughout a CHO fed-batch cell culture, which may be useful for further elucidating the biological processes driving mammalian cell culture performance.  相似文献

Background  

Mitochondrial proteins are central to various metabolic activities and are key regulators of apoptosis. Disturbance of mitochondrial proteins is therefore often associated with disease. Large scale protein data are required to capture the mitochondrial protein levels and mass spectrometry based proteomics is suitable for generating such data. To study the relative quantities of mitochondrial proteins in cells from cultivated human skin fibroblasts we applied a proteomic method based on nanoLC-MS/MS analysis of iTRAQ-labeled peptides.  相似文献

Although the toxicogenomics of A375 human malignant melanoma cells treated with arbutin have been elucidated using DNA microarray, the proteomics of the cellular response to this compound are still poorly understood. In this study, we performed proteomic analyses to investigate the anticancer effect of arbutin on the protein expression profile in A375 cells. After treatment with arbutin (8 microg/ml) for 24, 48 and 72 h, the proteomic profiles of control and arbutin-treated A375 cells were compared, and 26 differentially expressed proteins (7 upregulated and 19 downregulated proteins) were identified by MALDI-Q-TOF MS and MS/MS. Among these proteins, 13 isoforms of six identical proteins were observed. Bioinformatic tools were used to search for protein function and to predict protein interactions. The interaction network of 14 differentially expressed proteins was found to be correlated with the downstream regulation of p53 tumor suppressor and cell apoptosis. In addition, three upregulated proteins (14-3-3G, VDAC-1 and p53) and five downregulated proteins (ENPL, ENOA, IMDH2, PRDX1 and VIME) in arbutin-treated A375 cells were validated by RT-PCR analysis. These proteins were found to play important roles in the suppression of cancer development.  相似文献

The monoclonal IgM antibody PAT-SM6 derived from human tumours induces apoptosis in tumour cells and is considered a potential anti-cancer agent. A primary target for PAT-SM6 is the unfolded protein response regulator GRP78, over-expressed externally on the cell surface of tumour cells. Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) studies of human GRP78 showed a two-domain dumbbell-shaped monomer, while SAXS analysis of PAT-SM6 revealed a saucer-shaped structure accommodating five-fold symmetry, consistent with previous studies of related proteins. Sedimentation velocity analysis of GRP78 and PAT-SM6 mixtures indicated weak complex formation characterized by dissociation constants in the high micromolar concentration range. In contrast, enzyme-linked immunosorbant assays (ELISAs) showed strong and specific interactions between PAT-SM6 and immobilized GRP78. The apparent binding constant estimated from a PAT-SM6 saturation curve correlated strongly with the concentration of GRP78 used to coat the microtiter tray. Experiments using polyclonal antiGRP78 IgG antibodies or a monoclonal IgG derivative of PAT-SM6 did not show a similar dependence. Competition experiments with soluble GRP78 indicated more effective inhibition of PAT-SM6 binding at low GRP78 coating concentrations. These observations suggest an avidity-based binding mechanism that depends on the multi-point attachment of PAT-SM6 to GRP78 clustered on the surface of the tray. Analysis of ELISA data at high GRP78 coating concentrations yielded an apparent dissociation constant of approximately 4 nM. We propose that the biological action of PAT-SM6 in tumour cell apoptosis may depend on the multivalent nature of PAT-SM6 and the high avidity of its interaction with multiple GRP78 molecules clustered on the tumour cell surface.  相似文献

Early pregnancy loss (EPL) is one of the most common complications of human reproduction. Combined with our previous proteomic studies on villous and decidual tissues of EPL, we found that alterations of the proteins involved in oxidative stress (OS), unfolded protein response (UPR) and proteolysis presented a complex and dynamic interaction at the maternal-fetal interface. In the present study, we developed a cell model of OS using normal decidual cells to examine cell viability and expression levels of proteins related to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) and UPR. We found that glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP 78) and ubiquitinated proteins were significantly up-regulated in hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) treated decidual cells in a dose-dependent manner. Excessive OS could influence proper function of UPR by decreasing VCP in decidual cells, thereby leading to cell damage as well as inhibition of cell growth and activation of apoptosis. Furthermore, when pretreated with MG 132, a pharmacological inhibition of the proteasome, the H(2)O(2) treated decidual cells became less viable and could not up-regulate the expression level of GRP 78 to resolve the protein-folding defects, which indicating that malfunction of UPR in decidual cells might aggravate the inhibitory effect of OS in decidual cells. The present results reveal that abnormal protein profiles associated with OS induced ER stress and malfunction of UPR might be involved in the development of EPL, and OS and ER stress are potential targets for pregnant care and prognosis in normal pregnancy and its disorders.  相似文献

The effects of di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) on proteins secreted by HepG2 cells were studied using a proteomic approach. HepG2 cells were exposed to various concentrations of DEHP (0, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, and 250 μM) for 24 or 48 h. 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and comet assays were then conducted to determine the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of DEHP, respectively. The MTT assay showed that 10 μM DEHP was the maximum concentration that did not cause cell death. In addition, the DNA damage in HepG2 cells exposed to DEHP was found to increase in a dose‐ and time‐dependent fashion. Proteomic analysis using two different pI ranges (4–7 and 6–9) and large size 2‐DE revealed the presence of 2776 protein spots. A total of 35 (19 up‐ and 16 down‐regulated) proteins were identified as biomarkers of DEHP by ESI‐MS/MS. Several differentiated protein groups were also found. Proteins involved in apoptosis, transportation, signaling, energy metabolism, and cell structure and motility were found to be up‐ or down‐regulated. Among these, the identities of cystatin C, Rho GDP inhibitor, retinol binding protein 4, gelsolin, DEK protein, Raf kinase inhibitory protein, triose phosphate isomerase, cofilin‐1, and haptoglobin‐related protein were confirmed by Western blot assay. Therefore, these proteins could be used as potential biomarkers of DEHP and human disease associated with DEHP.  相似文献

The molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) affects the function of many oncogenic signaling proteins including nucleophosmin-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (NPM-ALK) expressed in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). While ALK-positive ALCL cells are sensitive to the Hsp90 inhibitor and the geldanamycin (GA) analog, 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), the proteomic effects of these drugs on ALK-positive ALCL cells are unpublished. In this study, we investigated the cellular, biologic, and proteomic changes occurring in ALK-positive ALCL cells in response to GA treatment. GA induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and caspase-3-mediated apoptosis. Furthermore, quantitative proteomic changes analyzed by cleavable isotope-coded affinity tag-LC-MS/MS (cICAT-LC-MS/MS) identified 176 differentially expressed proteins. Out of these, 49 were upregulated 1.5-fold or greater and 70 were downregulated 1.5-fold or greater in GA-treated cells. Analysis of biological functions of differentially expressed proteins revealed diverse changes, including induction of proteins involved in the 26S proteasome as well as downregulation of proteins involved in signal transduction and protein and nucleic acid metabolism. Pathway analysis revealed changes in MAPK, WNT, NF-kappaB, TGFbeta, PPAR, and integrin signaling components. Our studies reveal some of the molecular and proteomic consequences of Hsp90 inhibition in ALK-positive ALCL cells and provide novel insights into the mechanisms of its diverse cellular effects.  相似文献
