The aim of this study was to analyze the proteome of proliferating bovine satellite cells from longissimus dorsi, deep pectoral and semitendinosus muscle depots which had been subjected to hormonal deprivation or addition in culture. For hormone deprivation or addition studies, the cells were either grown in 10% charcoal-dextran stripped fetal bovine serum (CD-FBS) or in 10% FBS supplemented medium. Further to analyze the effect of insulin like growth factor (IGF-1) and testosterone (TS), the cells were grown in 10% CD-FBS containing IGF-1 (10 ng/ml) or TS (10 nM). Results have shown that hormone deprivation had a negative impact on proliferation of the cells from each of the muscle depots. In case of IGF-1 and TS addition, the proliferation levels were low compared with that of the cells grown in 10% FBS. Hence, to gain the insights of the proteins that are involved in such divergent levels of proliferation, the proteome of such satellite cells proliferating under the above mentioned conditions were analyzed using 2D-DIGE and MALDI-ToF/ToF. Thirteen proteins during hormone deprivation and nine proteins from hormone addition were found to be differentially expressed in all the cultures of the cells from the three depots. Moreover, the results highlighted in this study offer a role for each differentially expressed protein with respect to its effect on positive or negative regulation of cell proliferation.
Anatomically separate fat depots differ in size, function, and contribution to pathological states such as the metabolic syndrome. We isolated pre-adipocytes from different adipose depots, omental, subcutaneous and intramuscular, of beef cattle, and cultured in vitro to determine the basis for the variations and attribute these variations to the inherent properties of adipocyte progenitors. The proliferating cells from all depots before the confluence were harvested and the proteome was analyzed by a functional proteomic approach, involving 2-DE and MALDI-TOF/TOF. More than 252 protein spots were identified, selected and analyzed by Image Master (ver 7.0) and MALDI-TOF/TOF. Further, our analysis showed that there were specific differences in proteome expression patterns among proliferating precursor cells from the three depots. Sixteen proteins were found to be differentially expressed and these were identified as proteins involved in cellular processes, heat shock/chaperones, redox proteins, cytoskeletal proteins and metabolic enzymes. The results also enabled us to understand the basic roles of these proteins in different inherent properties exhibited by adipose tissue depots.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
