A primary study of the different protein expression profiles between human oral squamous cell carcinoma and normal oral mucosa tissues / 实用口腔医学杂志

Objective: To identify the different protein expression profiles between human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and normal oral mucosa tissues, and provide experimental data for further study of the development mechanism of OSCC. Methods: 10 cases of OSCC and paired normal oral mucosa tissues were collected and analyzed through two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Results: (1) The average protein spots of OSCC were 2 325±390, while that of normal oral mucosa tissues were 2 487±281. (2) 29 differential protein spots were found between OSCC and normal oral mucosa. Moreover, these protein spots were all down- regulated in OSCC compared with normal oral mucosa. Among these spots, 3 were identified as fibrin beta, triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) and unknown protein through mass spectrometry and bioinformation. Conclusion: Down-regulation of fibrin beta, Triosephosphate isomerase(TIM) and unknown protein are found in the development of OSCC and the mechanism needs further study.

Screening of differential expression proteins from human oral lichen planus and normal oral mucosa by two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry / 实用口腔医学杂志

Objective:To find biomarkers for oral lichen planus by comparing differential expressing proteins. Methods:10 cases of oral lichen planus and normal oral mucosa tissues were collected.Total protein was extracted; differential proteome profiles were established and analyzed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(2D-PAGE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Results:(1)The well-resolved,reproducible 2-DE patterns of oral lichen planus and normal oral mucosa were obtained. The results showed that average protein spots were 1 576?67 and 1 608?73 in oral lichen planus and normal oral mucosa respectively, (2) The 13 differential protein spots were identified by Imaging Master 2D image analysis software between oral lichen planus and normal oral mucosa. There were 7 protein spots in oral lichen planus were higher than those in normal oral mucosa, 6 protein spots in oral lichen planus were lower than those in normal oral mucosa. 10 differential expressing proteins were analyzed by mass spectrometry and bioinformation. 4 of them were well characterized including manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), Annexin I, vimentin and unknown proteins. Conclusion:Differential expression proteins might be candidate biomarkers for diagnosis of oral lichen planus;and proteomic technique is valuable for screening the diagnostic biomarkers.
