Benzisothiazolinone (BIT) is the preservative that is widely used in industrial and household products. In this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) was exposed to BIT at different concentrations (control, 0.5 g/L, 1.0 g/L and 2.0 g/L) for 72 hours. The techniques of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy were applied to analyze the effects of BIT on zebrafish. The advantages of NMR are the minimal sample preparation and high reproducibility of experimental results. With the multivariate statistical analysis, dimethylamine, N-acetylaspartate, glycine and histidine were identified as an important metabolite in differentiating between the control and BIT-exposed group. This study will improve the understanding the metabolite changes in the zebrafish in response to BIT exposure.

In this paper we proposes a new technique for identification of breast cancer by classification of proteome pattern generated from 2-D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) and development of cancer diagnosis system : HABIT. Proteome patterns reflect the underlying pathological state of a human organ and it is believed that the anomalies or diseases of human organs are identified by the analysis or classification of the patterns. Proteome patterns consist of quantitative information of the spots such as their size, position, and density in the proteome image produced from 2-D PAGE, for the Image mining of proteome pattern, SVM(support vector machine) and GA(genetic algorithm) are used to generate a decision model for the identification of breast cancer The decision model was then used to classify an independent set of test proteome patterns into the affecter and unaffecter classes. The proposed technique was tested by actual clinical test samples and showed a good performance of a hit ratio of 90%.

Proteomics has recently received intense scientific interest after the completion of the Human Genome Project, because this genome-based high technology allows to search new drug targets or diagnostic markers. Many proteome projects including Human plasma proteome projects (HPPP), Human liver proteome projects (HLPP), Human brain proteome projects (HBPP), and Mouse and Rat Proteome Project (MRPP) have been carried out and proteomic analytical techniques have been developed in second dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and LC/MS system. This powerful method has been applied in toxicology producing a new term "Toxicoproteomics". In this review, recent proteome projects, proteomic technologies, and toxicoproteomics will be discussed.

Although macrophages are an important first line of cellular defense, they are unable to effectively kill phagocytosed C. albicans. To determine the physiological basis of this inability, we investigated the alterations of macrophage proteins caused by C. albicans infection. Since the formation of C. albicans hyphae caused cell death, proteins were prepared 3 h after infection and examined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). The most prominent changes were in glycolytic enzymes, which could have caused energy depletion of the infected cells. Also changed were proteins involved in maintenance of cellular integrity and NO production. Treatment of the macrophages with either cytochalasin D or taxol did not alter their inability to kill C. albicans. Our results indicate that multiple factors contribute to cell death as the pathogenic form of C. albicans becomes fully active inside macrophage cells.

Because of the importance of the type III protein-secretion system in bacteria-plant interaction, its function in bacterial pathogenesis of plants has been intensively studied. To identity bacterial proteins interacting with Xanthomonas hrp gene products that are involved in pathogenicity, we performed the glutathione-bead binding analysis of Xanthomonas lysates containing GST-tagged Hrp proteins. Analysis of glutathione-bead bound proteins by 1-DE and MALDI-TOF has demonstrated that Avr proteins, RecA, and several components of the type III secretion system interact with HrpB protein. This proteomic approach could provide a powerful tool in finding interaction partners of Hrp proteins whose roles in host-pathogen interaction need further studies.
