Abstract

2-Dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) were used to screen differentially expressed serum proteins in Uyghur patients with hyperuricemia and control subjects.Western blot was used to validate differential proteins.Gel-image analysis revealed that there were 11 differential protein spots.A total of 4 differential protein spots were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF-MS.Complement 3,complement 4,haptoglobin,and apolipoprotein Al levels were up-regulated in patients as compared with controls.The result of complement 3 expression was validated by Western blot,which is accordant with that of proteomics. Key words: Hyperuricemia ; Uyghur; Serum ; Proteomics
