Materials and Methods

Two glioblastoma xenografts were established in the flanks of nude mice (C.D.J., manuscript in preparation). Tumor #6 over expresses ∆EGFR while Tumor #12 over expresses wild-type EGFR. Tumors were harvested and approximately 10 mg of wet tissue mass was lysed according to the protocol provided with the ProteomeLab PF 2D chemistry kit. Proteomic maps were generated with the ProteomeLab PF 2D system as previously described.

In summary, proteomic analysis of tumor samples with the ProteomeLab PF 2D system allows rapid and high-sensitivity resolution of proteins, thereby facilitating the identification of molecular differences and accelerating their exploitation by downstream technologies.
