Quantitative proteomic analyses in blood: A window to human health and disease.

Quantitative proteomic analyses in blood: A window to human health and disease. J Leukoc Biol. 2019 Jul 22;: Authors: Whittaker K, Burgess R, Jones V, Yang Y, Zhou W, Luo S, Wilson J, Huang RP Abstract This review discusses how the measurement of proteins in blood and its components via quantitative proteomics analyses can inform health status. Various external and internal factors such as environmental conditions, genetic background, nutrition, diet, and lifestyle, chronic pathological conditions, disease state, or therapeutic intervention will be investigated and their effects on the protein profile will be shown. The resulting changes to ones' health and how this protein expression information can be used in early screening/diagnostic applications, drug discovery, precision treatment, patient management, and monitoring overall health status will also be presented.
