Purpose
The main objective of this study is to compare the protein expression of human keratocytes treated with Plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) or autologous serum (AS) and previously induced to myofibroblast by TGF-beta 1 treatment.
Methods
Blood from healthy donor was collected and processed to obtain AS and PRGF eye drops. Blood derivates were aliquoted and stored at-80 degrees C until use. Keratocyte cells were pretreated for 60 minutes with 2.5 ng/ml TGF-beta 1. After that, cells were treated with PRGF, AS or with TGF-beta 1 (control). To characterize the proteins deregulated after PRGF and AS treatment, a proteomic approach that combines 1D-SDS-PAGE approach followed by LC-MS/MS was carried out.
Results
Results show a catalogue of key proteins in close contact with a myofibroblastic differentiated phenotype in AS treated-cells, whereas PRGF-treated cells show attenuation on this phenotype. The number of proteins downregulated after PRGF treatment or upregulated in AS-treated cells suggest a close relationship between AS-treated cells and cytoskeletal functions. On the other hand, proteins upregulated after PRGF-treatment or downregulated in AS-treated cells reveal a greater association with processes such as protein synthesis, proliferation and cellular motility.
Conclusion
This proteomic analysis helps to understand the molecular events underlying AS and PRGF-driven tissue regeneration processes, providing new evidence that comes along with the modulation of TGF-beta 1 activity and the reversion of the myofibroblastic phenotype by PRGF.
