Abstract:

The aim of this study was to explore the influence of somatic cell nuclear transfer (namely clone) operation on cardiac development of cloned Bama Miniature pigs. The proteins from three adult cloned pigs and three normal reproductive pigs were extracted, separated and identified by using comparative proteomics containing two-dimensinal gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry (MS). And the functions of some important differential proteins was analyzed by bioinformatics analysis. Compared with controls, there are 11 differential proteins including 5 up-regulated and 6 down-regulated proteins in the hearts from adult cloned Bama Miniature pigs. In the present study, endothelial dysfunction of hearts from three adult cloned Bama Miniature pigs was confirmed at proteomics level.
