Preliminary Purification and Identification of Acetylcholine Receptor Extracted from Human Bone Muscle

Objective To extract and purify acetylcholine receptor (AchR) from human bone muscle. Methods Using Triton X-100 extraction,ultra centrifation and sephadex G-150 filtration, AchR was extracted and preliminarily purified from human bone muscle,and identified by ultraviolet light absorbance,SDS- polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and initiative immunity. Results The content of the protein was 3.2 mg/ml. One main band of 44 kD peptide was on SDS-polyacrylamide gel. And the AchR protein induced experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis (EAMG) successfully. Conclusion The AchR protein extracted by the method had the immunocompetence,which could serve as the antigen to induce EAMG.
