Tooth pulp tissueIntact and carious (advanced enam
33、el or early to moderate dentinal caries) third molars were removed. External surfaces of the teeth were first cleaned with 75 % (v/v) ethanol and then mechanically to remove all the external soft tissue remnants, blood and cementum. A 2-3 mm deep groove was cut around the teeth with a 0.1 mm one-sid
34、ed diamond disc, avoiding the exposure of the pulp. The cut was placed 3-4 mm apically from the cement-enamel junction in order to preserve as much of the pulp tissue coronally from the cutting line as possible, to maximize the tissue sample size of the tooth. The root was fractured off trough the c

38、ast 2 h at 20 C and pelleted by centrifugation (30 min, 14.000 rpm, 4 C). The following steps were performed according to the manufacturers protocol (CyDye DIGE Fluor Labelling Kit for Scarce Samples, A. Biosciences) with slight modifications.

After centrifugation (10 min, 11.400 rpm, room temperature) the supernatant was transferred into a new tube and the pH and protein concentration determined. If neces
40、sary the pH was adjusted to 8.0. Protein aliquots of 10 g were adjusted to a final volume of 9 l with urea buffer. For the labelling 2 l (4 mM) TCEP were added, mixed and incubated for 1 h at 37 C in the dark. Now 4 l Cy3 dye (8 nmol) were added, mixed and incubated for 30 min at 37 C in the dark. A
41、fter that 15 l urea buffer containing also 130 mM DTT and 2 % (v/v) carrier ampholytes 3-10 were added and mixed to stop the labelling reaction.

42、 M urea, 2 M thiourea, 1% (w/v) CHAPS, 20 mM DTT, 0.8% (v/v) carrier ampholytes 3-10) without protein. Prior separation the protein solution was applied into sample cups placed at the anodic end of the IEF gel.For the separation by SDS-PAGE the IEF gels were equilibrated for 15 min in equilibration

IEF (Isoelectric focusing)The IEF is an electrophoretic method for the separation of proteins according to their charge in
44、 a specific pH gradient. Proteins are separated within an electrical field until they reach the position in the gel were their own charge is zero (isoelectric point, pI).2.1. In-gel rehydrationThe protein solution was adjusted with rehydration solution to a final volume of 350 l (for 18 cm long IEF
45、gels). The IPG strips (e.g. pH 310, non linear, pH 4-7) were incubated over night in the rehydration solution to mediate the protein transfer. IEF was carried out at 20 C with the Multiphor II system (Amersham Biosciences) under mineral oil (PlusOne Immobiline DryStrip Cover Fluid, Amersham Bioscien
46、ces) for 55 kVh (500 V 500Vh, 500 V 2500 Vh, 3500 V 10 kVh, 3500 V 42 kVh; linear gradient) according to Buttner et al., 2001.2.2. Sample cup loadingThe IEF gels (18 cm) were incubated over night in 350 l rehydration solution. Prior the separation the sample cups were placed onto the gel surface at
47、the anodic side of the gel. The gels were overlaid with mineral oil (PlusOne Immobiline DryStrip Cover Fluid) to control the correct positioning of the sample cups. Then the protein solution (20-100 l) was applied into the cups. IEF was carried out at 20 C with the Multiphor II system (Amersham Bios
48、ciences) for 52 kVh (150 V 2 h, 300 V 4 h, 1500 V 14 h, 3500 V 8,5h; step gradient) according to Grg et al., 2000. The strips were stored in aluminium foil at - 20C or prepared for SDS-PAGE.3. SDS-PAGE (SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis)During SDS-PAGE the proteins are separated according to their molecular mass in a polyacrylamide gel of specific concentration. Prior to SDS-PAGE the proteins are saturated with the strong anionic detergent SDS in order to mask the own charge of the proteins, which might disturb the separation. SDS for
