A Mighty Small Heart: The Cardiac Proteome of Adult Drosophila melanogaster

Abstract: Drosophila melanogaster is emerging as a powerful model system for the study of cardiac disease. Establishing peptide and protein maps of the Drosophila heart is central to implementation of protein network studies that will allow us to assess the hallmarks of Drosophila heart pathogenesis and gauge the degree of conservation with human disease mechanisms on a systems level. Using a gel-LC-MS/MS approach, we identified 1228 protein clusters from 145 dissected adult fly hearts. Contractile, cytostructural and m… Show more

“…Our results identified 502 protein clusters from purified cardiomyocyte nuclei. We note that this number of proteins is less than reported for cardiac protein profiling in the adult fly or mouse heart (Bousette et al, 2009;Cammarato et al, 2011). However, there are several possible reasons for this discrepancy.…”

“…However, the complexity of data obtained from proteomic studies makes translation of putative biomarkers into clinically useful prognostic tools difficult. As has been reviewed extensively elsewhere, proteomics has been successfully applied as a discovery tool to CVD in plasma, urine, and tissue [199][200][201][202] in the context of both animal models aimed at understanding cardiac function and development 203 and human biomarkers of atherosclerosis, 204 dyslipidemia, 205 and cardiometabolic disease. 206 Proteomics has also been applied in the context of nutritional studies to identify biomarkers of diet and nutritional status.…”

“…However, similar proteomic studies of internal cell populations have been more difficult and are usually only partially represented in proteomes of whole organs owing to signal dilution (e.g., refs. [11][12][13][14][15][16].…”
