Abstract:
Objective To investigate the proteomics differences between the high-sensitivity(HS) and the low-sensitivity(LS)groups of cervical carcinoma treated by concurrent chemoradiotherapy,and to confirm the sensitivity associated proteins in intermediate stage and advanced cervical carcinoma.Methods Fresh carcinoma tissues were collected from 10 untreated cervical carcinoma patients.According to the response to concurrent chemoradiotherapy,the tissues were classified into HS group and LS group.In the first part of our experiment,protein separation was performed using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis(2-DE)with Amersham 18 am linear pH 3-10 immobilized pH gradient(IPG)strips.The images of the gels were analyzed by PD-quest 7.0 software to find the differentially expressed protein-spots in each group.Then the differentially expressed protein-spots were incised from the gels and digested by trypsin.The peptide mass flngerprintings(PMF)was acquired by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF-MS).The proteins were identified by data searched in the Mascot-database.Two differentially expressed proteins were assayed by western blot and immunohistochemical methods.Results Most of the gels were clear and successfully analyzed by PD-quest 7.0 software.Most of the protein-spots concentrated on the area of 20-100 KDa(Mw)and pH4-8.The average number of the protein-spots was 781±74 in HS group and 766±52 in LS group.The match rate was 87.6%between the two groups.Eight proteins highly in HS group but lowly expressed in LS group included hemoglobin subunit beta,caspase-14 precursor,calmodulin-like,S100-A9 protein(MRP-14),galectin-7,HSKERC4,keratin 19 and actin.Ten proteins highly in LS group but lowly expression in HS group included anti HBs antibody light-chain Fab,laminB1,WARS protein,flavin reductase,glutamate dehydrogenase 1,nuclear matrix protein 238,retinal dehydrogenase 1,AFl 65172,subunit of replicative DNA polymerase and HSP70.The higher expression of HSP70 in LS group and galectin7 in HS groups were further confirmed by western blot and immunohistochemical method.Conclusions The 2-DE gels images are successfully acquired from high-sensitivity group and low-sensitivity group of intermediate stage and advanced cervical carcinoma tissues treated by concurrent chemoradiotherapy.Some differentially expressed proteins between the two groups can be further confirmed by western blot and immunohistochemical method.
