Proteomics has become a powerful tool in neuroscience studies. Although numerous human neural stem cells are available for research purposes since many years, there exists only limited information on proteomic data from stable neural stem cell lines. Profiling and functional proteome studies of neuronal stem cells will help to describe the protein inventory as well as protein activity and interactions, subcellular localization and posttranslational modifications. The proteomic analysis of neuronal differentiation processes will elucidate the complex events leading to the generation of different phenotypes via distinctive developmental programs that control self-renewal, differentiation, and plasticity. Using the ReNcell VM197 model, a cell line derived from human fetal ventral mesencephalon stem cells, we studied the protein inventory of the stem cells by 2-DE gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometric protein identification and constructed a 2-DE protein map consisting of more than 400 identified protein spots. This proteome reference database constitutes the basis for further investigations of differential protein expression during differentiation. A profiling of the neuronal differentiation-associated changes displayed the large rearrangement of the proteome during this process, and the proteomic techniques proved to be a valuable tool for the elucidation of neuronal differentiation process and for target protein screening.
