Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteome profiling is essential for molecular diagnostics in modern biomedical study. To date, sample preparation including protein extraction and proteolysis is still very challenging and lack of efficiency. Recently tips-based sample preparation protocols exhibit strong potentials to achieve the goal of “a proteome in an hour”. However, in-tip proteolysis is still rarely reported and far from ideal for dealing with complex bio-samples. In this work, nanoreactors encapsulated micropipette tips were demonstrated as high performance devices for fast (∼minutes) and multiplexing proteolysis to assist the profiling of cancer cells proteome. Nanoporous silica materials with controlled pore size and surface chemistry were prepared as nanoreactors and encapsulated in micropipette tips for efficient in situ proteolysis. The as-constructed device showed desirable sensitivity (LOD of 0.204 ± 0.008 ng/μL and LOQ of 0.937 ± 0.055 ng/μL), selectivity, stability (two months under −20 °C), reusability (at least 10 times), and little memory effect in MS based bottom-up proteomic analysis. It was used for comprehensive protein mapping from cancer cell lines. The number of identified proteins was increased by 18%, 22%, 52%, and 52% dealing with HepG2, F56, MCF7, and HCCLM3 cancer cells, compared to traditional in-solution proteolysis based bottom-up proteomic strategy. With the enhanced performance, our work built a novel, efficient and miniaturized platform for facile proteomic sample preparation, which is promising for advanced biomarkers discovery in biomedical study. 相似文献
A modified polyacrylamide gel route was used to prepare SrFe12O19 magnetic nanoparticles; ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was used as a carboxyl chelating agent. The phase purity, morphology and magnetic properties of as-prepared samples were analyzed via X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and vibrating sample magnetometery (VSM). XRD analysis indicates that high-purity SrFe12O19 magnetic nanoparticles can be synthesized at 700°C in air. The characteristic peaks of as-prepared sample at 210, 283, 321, 340, 381, 411, 432, 475, 532, 618, 686, and 726 cm–1 were observed in Raman spectra. SEM and TEM show that the synthesized SrFe12O19 magnetic nanoparticles are uniform with the mean particle size of ~60 nm. VSM measurement shows that the maximum magnetic energy product (BH)max of sample prepared using EDTA as a chelating agent is higher than that of sample prepared using citric acid as a chelating agent.
A one-pot, three-component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, and 3,4-methylenedioxyphenol has been reported for the synthesis of novel 7-aryl-6H-benzo[h][1,3]dioxolo[4,5-b]xanthene-5,6(7H)-diones using environmentally benevolent para-toluene sulfonic acid (p-TSA) as the catalyst. This methodology provides a mild and fast route to diverse pyran derivatives in moderate to good yields. 相似文献
Two acridones, paratrimerins C (1) and D (2), and two coumarins, paratrimerins E (3) and F (4), were isolated from the CHCl3 and EtOAc extracts of Paramignya trimera (Rutaceae), together with twelve known compounds (5–16). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. All isolated compounds possessed significant α-glucosidase inhibitory activity in a concentration-dependent manner, and showed more potent inhibitory activity, with IC50 values ranging from 14.6 to 112.2 μM, than the positive control acarbose (IC50, 214.5 μM). The biosynthesis of the isolated coumarins and acridones was proposed. 相似文献
A regioselective oxidation of allylic C–H bond to C–O bond catalyzed by copper (I) was developed with diacyl peroxides as oxidants. The oxidation of allylic C–H bond was accomplished with good yield and regioselectivity under mild reaction conditions. This method has a broad substrate scope including cyclic olefins, terminal and internal acyclic olefins and allyl benzene compounds. The reaction proceeds by a radical mechanism as suggested by spin trapping experiments. 相似文献
Laser light scattering (LLS) and conductivity experiments were performed to investigate the effect of counterions on the conformation of polycarboxylate comb-like copolymers (PCEs) in aqueous solutions. The addition of monovalent ions (i.e., Na+ and K+) to dilute polycarboxylate comb-like copolymer solutions induced a slight shrinking of the molecular chains because of the screening of electrostatic intramolecular repulsion. Varying complexation phenomena, such as the formation of intramolecular complexation at certain Ca2+ concentrations and a transition between intermolecular and intramolecular complexations at different Ca2+ concentrations, were closely associated with Ca2+ concentration. Therefore, Ca2+ exerted a more complex influence on the conformation of PCEs with side chains containing polyethylene oxide (PEO) with different grafting densities. In addition, various combination types of Ca2+ with carboxylic groups were confirmed by theoretical simulation. 相似文献
