The role of clinical proteomics in immunology
Tagged:
Since the human genome was sequenced to understand the function of the 30000 identified genes, researchers have pointed their attention to the proteins encoder by the entire genoma: the “proteoma”. The study of the “proteoma”, called proteomics, actually represents the most efficient strategy to evaluate modifications in the protein expressions as response of internal and external stimuli and/or pathological situations, and therefore gives a basis for the identification of unknown biomarkers and pharmacological targets. At the time, proteomic applications have permitted the identifications of new diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarkers of drug response in many illnesses, such as immune-mediate diseases.
