  • 简介:骨头导出髓的间充质的干细胞(MSC)是为房间移植在临床的应用程序显示出一个重要潜力的pluripotent干细胞。在现在的论文,proteomic技术被用来接近与猪的骨头髓MSC联系的蛋白质侧面并且在5-azacytidine(5-aza)的效果上调查MSC蛋白质的规定。超过1,700蛋白质种类根据胶化分析与MSC被分开。与控制MSC介绍的表达式相比,有起来调整的11个蛋白质点并且26在5-aza-treated房间的蛋白质模式下面调整。21蛋白质的一个总数被MALDI-TOF-MS分析成功地识别,在哪个之中一些有趣的蛋白质,例如高山哈B-crystallin,在A2的附属建筑,和stathmin1,被报导了通过不同发信号的小径在房间增长和区别包含。我们的数据应该为MSC区别和apoptosis的未来学习是有用的。
