ABSTRACT
A study was conducted to investigate the changes in human urinary proteins caused by physical exercise. Nine subjects (male middle-distance runners, 19-21 years) were loaded physical exercise with a 10km-run, and quantitative and qualitative changes in urinary proteins were examined using various techniques including polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, immunoelectrophoresis and two-dimensional electrophoresis. Total protein concentrations in urine from all subjects before exercise were very low (0.68-2.56mg/d<I>l</I>), but those were increased remarkably after exercise. Few proteins except for albumin were detected in urine before run by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoelectrophoresis, however, a few proteins were observed after exercise in addition to a marked increase of albumin. Several proteins which were not observed in serum could also be detected in urine after exercise by two-dimensional electrophoresis under non-denaturing condition. It is considered that two-dimensional electrophoresis is a very powerful technique for analyzing dilute and complicated protein mixture in biological fluids such as urine.
ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to analyze the plasma proteins of physical education athletic and general students (aged 19-22) before their breakfast by two-dimensional electrophoresis.<BR>The results of this study, a protein which has not been found in any original report yet is detcted from physical education athletic students before breakfast.<BR>This protein was not detected from general studenets before breakfast. This protein was detected at the position of pI5.0, molecular weight of about 70, 000 on two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophosis under non-denaturing codition, but it showed a molecular weight of about 30, 000 on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.<BR>As far as this research is concerned, neither special physical education athletic students and nor general students were observed in changes of two-dimensional electrophoretic patterns of blood cell cytosol and blood cell membrane proteins.
