Abstract

To study differential expression proteins associated with colorectal cancer genesis and hepatic metastasis with proteomic techniques. Using isoelectric focusing/SDS acrylamide gel two-dimensional electrophoresis to analyse differential expression protein spots among normal colorectal mucosa, primary cancer lesion and hepatic metastasis. Peptide mass fingerprinting was used to identify the differential proteins. Significant differences of protein expression were found on two-dimensional electrophoresis. Nine differential protein spots were analysed and identified. Calmodulin, ribonuclease 6 precursor and protein XP_040720 (mannosidase-alpha) were detected in normal colorectal mucosa, but lost in primary cancer lesion and hepatic metastasis. Proapolipoprotein was expressed progressively from normal mucosa to primary cancer and hepatic metastasis. Expression of beta-globin was found in normal mucosa and hepatic metastasis, but not in primary cancer lesion. Cdc42 was a differential expression protein in hepatic metastasis. Peptide mass fingerprints of differential protein spot C4, M7 and M9 had low homology with database proteins, they were candidates of associated proteins with colorectal cancer genesis and hepatic metastasis.
