Objectives:
To compare expressions of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in different hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines with different metastasis potential and to screen key molecules associated with HCC metastasis and recurrence.
Methods:
Using two-dimensional electrophoresis, Western blotting and MALDI-TOF-MS/MS, we analyzed tyrosine-phosphorylated protein profiles of Hep3B, MHCC97L and MHCC97H, HCC cell lines with different metastasis potentials.
Results:
10 spots were detected in Hep3B, 19 in MHCC97L and 17 in MHCC97H. Seventeen significantly different phosphotyrosine proteins in gel were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS/MS, including Annexin I.
Conclusion:
The changed expression of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins is associated with HCC metastasis and recurrence.
