Single-Step Procedure for the Isolation of Proteins at Near-Native Conditions from Mammalian Tissue for Proteomic Analysis on Antibody Microarrays

Abstract

The process of extracting comprehensive proteome representations is a crucial step for many proteomic studies. While antibody microarrays are an evolving and promising methodology in proteomics, the issue of protein extraction from tissues for this kind of analysis has never been addressed. Here, we describe a single-step extraction buffer for the isolation of proteins from mammalian tissues under native conditions in an effective and reproducible manner. Protein was extracted from cell lines BxPC-3 and SU.86.86, rat organs (pancreas, liver, heart and lung) and human pancreatic cancer tissues using several buffer systems that contained individual nonionic or zwitterionic detergents in comparison to commercial extraction buffers. Also, detergent combinations were used that included at least one polymeric phenylethylene glycol, a long-chain amidosulfobetaine, cholate and a zwitterionic detergent. Extracts were analyzed for protein quantity and quality. The detergent cocktails exhibited superior extraction capacity. Additionally, they demonstrated a substantially higher recovery of membrane and compartmental proteins as well as much better preservation of protein functionality. Also, they did not interfere with subsequent analysis steps such as labeling. In Western blot and antibody microarray assays, they outperformed the other buffer systems, indicating that they should also be useful for other types of proteomic studies.

A novel technique for decellularization of allogenic nerves and in vivo study of their use for peripheral nerve reconstruction

“…Eventually, this novel approach was performed with low concentration of chemical detergents, making the graft more suitable to harbor cells, which could proliferate and colonize it. Combining multiple detergents enhances ECM deprivation [45] but also permits a more extensive detergent removal after decellularization because lower detergent doses are employed [46][47][48]. The definition of the The first version of protocol achieved slightly poorer results compared to the Hudson method, but the tissue manual processing was reduced to less than 4 hours.…”

“…The cellular proteins were extracted using the optimized extraction process described in detail before [25]. In brief, at 90% confluence, cells were washed three times with ice cold phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and layered with the extraction buffer (Hepes-Mix: 20 mM Hepes buffer, pH 7.9, 1 mM MgCl 2 , 5 mM EDTA, 1 mM phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride, 1% NP-40 substitute, 0.5% sodium cholate, 0.25% n-dodecyl-β-D-maltoside (GenaXXon Bioscience, Ulm, Germany), 0.25% amidosulfobetaine-14, 1 U/μl of Benzonase (Merck Biosciences, Schwalbach, Germany) and Halt Protease and Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail (Thermo Scientific, Bonn, Germany)).…”
