[Analysis of differential gel electrophoresis of paclitaxol resistant and sensitive lung adenocarcinoma cells' secretome.].
BACKGROUND
Paclitaxol (PTX) resistance is one of main factors which affect the outcome of chemotherapy of lung adenocarcinoma. The aim of this study is to compare the secreted protein expression profiles between Paclitaxol (PTX) resistant and sensitive lung adenocarcinoma cells by proteomic research method, so as to provide evidence of choosing individual chemotherapy drugs in clinical treatment.


METHODS
Total secreted proteins extracted from a PTX sensitive cell line A549 and a PTX resistant cell line A549-Taxol were separated by fluorscent differential gel electrophoresis (DIGE). High quality 2-DE profiles were obtained and analyzed by Decyder 6.5 analysis software to screen differentially expressed protein spots. Those spots were identified by mass spectrometry.


RESULTS
2-DE patterns of lung adenocarcinoma cells with high-resolution and reproducibility were obtained. 76 significantly differentially expressed protein spots were screened, 19 proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. The identified proteins could be classified into different catogories: metabolic enzyme, extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation enzyme, cytokine, signal transducer, cell adhesion, and so on.


CONCLUSIONS
Multiple secreted proteins related to chemoresistance of A549-Taxol cells were identified in this study for the first time. The results presented here would provide clues to identify new serologic chemoresistant biomarkers of NSCLC.
