Abstract

African cobra (Naja spp.) venom contains toxins dominated by proteins and peptides with inter- and intra-specific variations. There are several FDA-approved drugs from snake venom toxins from other regions, including South America and Asia. Profiling the proteomes of medically important African cobra venoms from different locations will aid in developing more effective anticancer agents. The venoms of spitting cobras (Naja pallida and Naja nigricincta woodi) and non-spitting cobras of the Uraeus subgenus (Naja anchietae, Naja annulifera, and Naja nivea) were fractionated by reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). Using label-free LC-MS/MS, the venom toxins were identified and grouped into families based on their relative abundance. Venom cytotoxicity of both crude and fractionated samples was tested in pancreatic carcinoma cell lines (MIA PaCa-2) using the Alamar Blue assay. Cell viability analysis revealed a cytotoxic effect of spitting cobra venoms against MIA PaCa-2 cell lines compared to normal MRC-5 cells. Conversely, venoms of non-spitting cobras showed no cytotoxic activity against MIA PaCa-2 cells. Selected RP-HPLC venom fractions from the spitting cobras revealed that N. pallida Fraction 6 and N. n. woodi Fraction 9 at a minimal level were cytotoxic against MIA PaCa-2 cells. LC-MS/MS data showed that while N. pallida Fraction 6 was dominated by basic phospholipase 2 CM-III and Cytotoxin 2, N. n. woodi Fraction 9 was dominated by basic phospholipase 2 CM-III, basic phospholipase 2 CM-II and Cytotoxin 3. These fractions will be purified and studied to determine the mechanisms behind the underlying cytotoxicity against MIA PaCa-2 cells.

摘要

非洲眼镜蛇(眼镜蛇属)毒液含有以蛋白质和肽为主的毒素,存在种间和种内差异。有几种来自其他地区(包括南美洲和亚洲)蛇毒毒素的药物已获美国食品药品监督管理局批准。分析来自不同地点具有医学重要性的非洲眼镜蛇毒液的蛋白质组,将有助于开发更有效的抗癌药物。喷毒眼镜蛇(淡色眼镜蛇和黑头盾眼镜蛇)以及埃及眼镜蛇亚属的非喷毒眼镜蛇(安氏眼镜蛇、环纹眼镜蛇和白唇眼镜蛇)的毒液通过反相高效液相色谱(RP-HPLC)进行分离。使用无标记液相色谱-串联质谱法(LC-MS/MS),鉴定毒液毒素并根据其相对丰度将它们分组为家族。使用阿拉玛蓝测定法在胰腺癌细胞系(MIA PaCa-2)中测试粗毒液和分离样品的毒液细胞毒性。细胞活力分析显示,与正常MRC-5细胞相比,喷毒眼镜蛇毒液对MIA PaCa-2细胞系具有细胞毒性作用。相反,非喷毒眼镜蛇的毒液对MIA PaCa-2细胞没有细胞毒性活性。从喷毒眼镜蛇中选择的RP-HPLC毒液组分显示,淡色眼镜蛇组分6和黑头盾眼镜蛇组分9在最低水平时对MIA PaCa-2细胞具有细胞毒性。LC-MS/MS数据表明,虽然淡色眼镜蛇组分6以碱性磷脂酶2 CM-III和细胞毒素2为主,但黑头盾眼镜蛇组分9以碱性磷脂酶2 CM-III、碱性磷脂酶2 CM-II和细胞毒素3为主。将对这些组分进行纯化和研究,以确定对MIA PaCa-2细胞潜在细胞毒性背后的机制。
