[Variability of urine proteome of healthy persons during 105-daily isolation].

Abstract

Human proteome is very plastic, it changes under the influence of various biological factors. It is of big interest to find out how specific factors of an environment, including a long-term isolation affect on urine proteome. The study was conducted during the experiment with 105-day isolation. In the present investigation we collected urine samples from 6 healthy volunteers (26-41 years old). The physical activity, daily rhythms and diet were controlled. Urine samples were fractionated on magnetic beads MB-HIC C8 (MB - hydrophobic-interaction chromatography) with ClinProt robot (Bruker Daltonics) prior to MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer analysis with Autoflex III TOF/TOF (Bruker Daltonics), working in a positive linear mode. 117 peaks have been obtained in each spectrum of urine. We have shown that even during isolation and under controlled conditions of life a high variability of urine proteome of healthy personas (36 protein MC-peaks in the urine, on average) are revealed.
