In vitro protein expression changes in RAW 264.7 cells and HUVECs treated with dialyzed coffee extract by immunoprecipitation high performance liquid chromatography.

RAW 264.7 cells and HUVECs were compared to evaluate the effects of dialyzed coffee extract (DCE) and artificial coffee (AC). Immunoprecipitation high performance liquid chromatography (IP-HPLC) showed DCE-2.5- (equivalent to 2.5 cups of coffee a day) and DCE-5-induced protein expression that was beneficial to human health, i.e., they led to significant increases in proliferation-, immunity-, cellular protection-, antioxidant signaling-, and osteogenesis-related proteins but decreases in inflammation-, NFkB signaling-, cellular apoptosis-, and oncogenic signaling-related proteins in RAW 264.7 cells, and slight decreases in angiogenesis-related proteins in HUVECs. These protein expression changes were less frequently observed for DCE-10 treatment, while AC treatment induced very different changes in protein expression. We suggest that the favorable cellular effects of DCE were derived from minor coffee elements that were absent in AC, and that the reduced effects of DCE-10 compared with those of DCE-2.5 or DCE-5 might have been caused by greater adverse reactions to caffeine and chlorogenic acid in DCE-10 than DCE-2.5 or DCE-5. IP-HPLC results suggested that minor coffee elements in DCE might play beneficial roles in the global protein expression of proliferation-, immunity-, anti-inflammation-, cell protection-, antioxidant-, anti-apoptosis-, anti-oncogenesis-, and osteogenesis-related proteins in RAW 264.7 cells and enhance anti-angiogenic signaling in HUVECs.
