title: Dynamic proteome analysis of spinal cord injury after ischemia-reperfusion in rabbits by two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis.
abstract: METHODS
  Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating and common neurologic disorder that has profound influences on modern society from physical, psychosocial and socio-economic perspectives.
  
  
  OBJECTIVE
  To analyze the dynamic changes in protein expression during SCI after ischemia-reperfusion.
  
  
  METHODS
  We used two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis combined with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight MS to give a global analysis of protein dynamic change during SCI after ischemia-reperfusion. Dynamic changes in protein expression were investigated from 6 to 48 h in SCI after ischemia-reperfusion using a proteomics tool.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Twenty-one proteins were identified in total, including neuronal proteins, glycometabolism enzymes, stress-related proteins and cytoskeleton-related proteins. These were divided into upregulated and downregulated groups. Results identified 24 h as a key time point when all proteins were changed dramatically. In addition, changes in Fascin expression were discovered in SCI for the first time.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In conclusion, we observed dynamic proteome change correlated with SCI by ischemia-reperfusion, and provided a clue to this pathological mechanism by protein identification and analysis.
