Injured pancreatic tissue extract contains transcription proteins that are considered as specific soluble proteins, which contribute in promoting the trans-differentiation of stem cells into insulin-producing cells (IPCs). In this present study, 60% of the pancreatic tissues of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were removed, and newborn and normal pancreatic tissues were removed after 48 h to extract tissue fluid. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) separation and spot analysis were conducted on differentially expressed proteins, and peptides were obtained after enzymatic digestion. Twenty two-fold or above differentially expressed proteins were identified via matrix-assisted laser desorption time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS), among which, five proteins were related to pancreatic development and differentiation. Moreover, the expression patterns of four proteins detected w.. View More»
