Comparative Proteomic Analysis of Peritoneal Dialysate from Chronic Glomerulonephritis Patients

Figure 2

Representative 2DE gels of the (a) early-stage and (b) middle-stage samples. Each sample containing 140 μg was analyzed separately by 2DE (pH 4–7). The analysis of each sample was repeated three times. About 300 protein spots were detected on each gel, and a total of 386 protein spots were contained in the final master gel. Comparing between the two groups, 10 proteins were found to have differential levels, of which, 4 spots (P01–P04) had higher levels in the early-stage samples (pointed out by arrows in panel (a)), while 6 spots (P05–P10) showed higher levels in the middle-stage ones (indicated by arrows in panel (b)).
