Abstract:
Objective To explore the differential proteins in livers with the help of proteomics,which provide experimental basis for the study of influence factors of liver injury in the state of brain-death.Methods Slow intracranial pressure method was used to establish the rabbit brain death model.Each liver tissue from 6 h after brain death of rabbit was collected.Total proteins were extracted and separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.The image was analyzed by PDQuest software.The differentially expressed proteins between the two groups in more than two-fold were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry and retrieved in the NCBI database to identify the corresponding protein.And the different proteins were re-identified by western blot.Results Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that there were about 973 ± 34 and 987 ± 38 protein spots in sham and brain death groups.A total of 52 differentially expressed protein spots between the two groups,29 were up-regulated,and 23 were down-regulated.10 different proteins were:DPYL4,ALDH2,PRDX6,PDK1,THTM,RUNX1,PPA1,ADH,GCLR,CYB5.RUNX1 is a protein of interest,so the expression of RUNX1 was detected by western blot and it showed that the expression of RUNX1 in liver decreased gradually in a time-dependent manner.Conclusions Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry identification is a reliable platform and powerful tool for differential proteomics studies.Identified protein RUNX1 may be related with liver injury after brain death,which is beneficial for the understanding of the mechanism of liver damage after brain death.
