OBJECTIVE
With the increasingly serious epidemic situation of diabetes, plasma proteomic method and OFFGEL electrophoresis have been applied for screening different proteins between obese and non-obese T2DM patients, which may be used to further explain the mechanism of T2DM.
METHODS
Twenty male T2DM volunteers (Obesity Subtype: 10; Non-obesity Subtype: 10) with the age of 18-44 years have been selected. The control group has been matched considering the factors of age, gender, etc. Albumin and IgG were removed from the plasma samples with highly specific immune-affinity method. Then the peptide-mixed samples were separated by pI with OFFGEL electrophoresis after solution digestion. Further separation and identification were performed by Nano HPLC-Chip-MS/MS system. Comparing the three groups, the differences were obtained and annotated on functions and its mechanism.
RESULTS
391, 415 and 371 proteins have been identified in the experimental groups and control group, respectively. The different proteins in groups and their annotations showed that adiponectin was down-regulated in obesity subtype of T2DM group, while STIM1 (stromal interaction molecule 1) was up-regulated. There were six protein kinases high expression in non-obesity DM patients, such as Serine-protein kinase ATM, Serine/threonine-protein kinase WNK1.
CONCLUSIONS
Adiponectin, STIM1 and protein kinases may act in different roles on the pathogenesis of obesity subtype and non-obesity subtype of T2DM.
