In 2011, Clinical Proteomics converted from a subscription publication to a fully open access journal. The journal's back content can be viewed on SpringerLink.
Featured article: The plasma peptides of Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting millions of elderly worldwide, and for which there is no cure yet. Biomarkers in body fluids such as the cerebrospinal fluid are supportive of the biological diagnosis of AD, but blood based biomarkers would have the preference, being obtained by low-invasive procedures. We here set out to identify AD specific peptides and proteins in plasma using analytical separation combined with in-depth mass spectrometry methods. We compared the profiles in AD patients compared to those obtained in healthy controls and patients with various diseases, in order to reveal disease specific patterns using elaborated statistical methods. The clinical groups thus included were: normals, multiple sclerosis, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, female normal, sepsis, ICU Control, heart attack, along with their institution-matched controls. The study revealed a multitude of differentially regulated proteins in plasma of AD patients, including brain specific and neuronal specific proteins. The study shows the feasibility of the approach, and indicates that there are several plasma proteins that merit to be studied in the course of this disease as potential biomarkers.
