Proteomic Analysis of Gene Expression in Basal Cell Carcinoma
Background: Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is a type of non-melanoma skin cancer. Alteration in gene expression is the important event that happens in cancer cell. Detection of this event is possible by proteomics techniques. Methods: Normal and tumor tissues were taken from BCC patient. Total proteins were purified by standard methods, and proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis...
متن کاملProteomic analysis of human saliva from lung cancer patients using two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.
Lung cancer is often asymptomatic or causes only nonspecific symptoms in its early stages. Early detection represents one of the most promising approaches to reduce the growing lung cancer burden. Human saliva is an attractive diagnostic fluid because its collection is less invasive than that of tissue or blood. Profiling of proteins in saliva over the course of disease progression could reveal...
متن کاملA Novel Spot-Enhancement Anisotropic Diffusion Method for the Improvement of Segmentation in Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis Images, Based on the Watershed Transform Algorithm
Introduction Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DGE) is a powerful technique in proteomics for protein separation. In this technique, spot segmentation is an essential stage, which can be challenging due to problems such as overlapping spots, streaks, artifacts and noise. Watershed transform is one of the common methods for image segmentation. Nevertheless, in 2DGE image segmentation, the no...
متن کاملApplication of sensitive fluorescent dyes in linkage of laser microdissection and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis as a cancer proteomic study tool.
The combination of laser microdissection and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) has been developed to perform proteomic analysis on specific populations of cells in cancer tissues. However, as conventional low sensitivity silver staining was used for spot detection, the microdissection required to obtain an adequate amount of protein for 2-D PAGE is laborious and only a restricted n...
متن کاملDetection and Quantification of Protein Spots by Pinnacle.
Accurate spot detection and quantification is a challenging task that must be performed effectively in order to properly extract the proteomic information from two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis images. In Morris et al., Bioinformatics 24:529-536, 2008, we introduced Pinnacle, an automatic, fast, effective noncommercial package for spot detection and quantification for 2-D gel images, an...
