Protein content of native and decellularized pancreata. (a) A representative silver stained SDS-PAGE comparing total protein (10 µg) content of native and decellularized pancreas demonstrates enrichment of large molecular weight proteins (80–250kD), and (b) MS-based analysis of the percent total abundance represented by ECM-associated or cellular proteins in the native and decellularized pancreas. (c) A list of the top 40 ECM-associated proteins identified in the decellularized material, sorted first by category (blue = collagens, purple = ECM glycoproteins, teal = proteoglycans, beige = ECM regulators, orange = ECM-affiliated proteins) and second by normalized abundance in the decelled sample, (d) graphed alongside the normalized abundance in the native tissue (grey striped bars). N = 3 biological replicates per group analysed for SDS-PAGE/silver stain analysis.
