OBJECTIVE: To seek the plasma differential proteins in patients with unstable angina of blood-stasis pattern (UA-BSS) for exploring the proteomic specialty in them by way of two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (DIGE) detection on plasma of patients and healthy persons. METHODS: Using DIGE and tandem mass spectrometry, comparative proteomic study was conducted on the plasma of 12 UA patients of qi-deficiency and blood-stasis pattern (UA-QBS), 12 UA patients of phlegm-stasis cross-blocking pattern (UA-PSS) and 12 healthy volunteers. RESULTS: Preliminary results showed that Haptoglobin beta chain, DBP, HBB, HBA, Transthyretin, ApoA- I, ApoA-IV were significantly differentially expressed in both patterns, while Haptoglobin alpha1 chain, alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, ApoC-III, ApoA-II, ApoC-II, ApoJ, and Haptoglobin alpha 2 chain were only seen differentially expressed in the UA-PSS patients, alpha1-antitrypsin, Fibrinogen gamma chain, and Fibrin beta were only seen differentially expressed in UA-QBS patients. CONCLUSION: The common proteomics characteristics of patients of QBS and PSS patterns may be correlated with inflammatory reaction and metabolic disturbance (including blood lipid and blood oxygen).
