2D-LC analysis of phosphopeptides in brain tissue using Ettan MDLC and Finnigan LTQ

phosphopeptide • two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) • Ettan MDLC • LC-MS/MS • reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) • strong cation exchange (SCX) chromatography • linear ion trap mass spectrometer A 2D–LC-MS method was developed to analyze phospho-peptides in mouse brain tissue. The...

Sensitive identification of phosphopeptides in brain tissue using Ettan MDLC and Finnigan LTQ

GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden A 2D–LC-MS method was developed to analyse phosphopeptides in mouse brain tissue. The trypsin-digested tissue was separated by strong cation exchange chromatography (SCX), followed by reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) using Ettan MDLC. The detection was...

Radiology advance points way to non-invasive brain-cancer treatment

Glioblastoma Multiforme, GBM, is a brain cancer death sentence. Of the approximately 12,000 people who are diagnosed with GBM annually in the U.S., half will die within a year, and the rest within 3 years. The only treatments that stretch survival limits are exceptionally invasive surgeries to remove the tumor and radiation treatment with the maximum tolerated dose - all of which leads t...

Stem cells produce anti-disease protein in brain experiment

A recent phase-one study at UW-Madisons Waisman Center shows a potential new avenue for stem cell-based treatment of Parkinsons and other neurodegenerative disorders. Their treatment could enable brain cells that generate dopamine, which helps the brain control the bodys movement, to recover from the damage caused by disease. The study involved use of a naturally occurring protein in the...

Prairie Technologies works with UW engineer to visualize the brain

Well, by pressing the open tip of an electrolyte-filled glass pipette much thinner than a human hair against the membrane of an individual brain cell, researchers can isolate a patch and identify the electric current flowing through individual ion channels on a cell's membrane. This technique is known as the patch-clamp method, and...
