title: [Detection of tissue protein biomarkers by surface enhanced laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry in patients with mycosis fungoides].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To search the tissue biomarker in mycosis fungoides (MF) patients by surface enhanced laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS).
  
  
  METHODS
  Skin specimens were collected from 12 MF patients and 15 normal controls to prepare solution of protein. CM10 Proteinchip was used to detect the biomarkers for MF. Differentially expressed protein was identified by immuno capturing.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The expression intensity levels of 24 proteins were different between the MF patients and controls. By searching in SWISS-PRO database and literature, the 3498 and 10 837 peaks were found to accord with HNP3 and S100A8 proteins respectively. By immuno capturing, 10 837 could be identified as S100A8 with a special antibody against S100A8.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  A quick, easy, and high throughout proteome analytic method, SELDI-TOF-MS can identify the differential expressed proteins from MF tissue, thus offering a unique platform for biomarker detection of MF.
