- Proteomics in the assessment of the therapeutic response of antineoplastic drugs: strategies and practical applicationsPublication . Torres, Vukosava Milic; Popovic, Lazar; Vaz, Fatima; Penque, DeborahUncovering mechanisms of unknown pathological mechanisms and body response to applied medication are the drive forces toward personalized medicine. In this post-genomic era, all eyes are tuned to proteomic field, searching for the answers and explanations by investigating the final physiological functional units – proteins and their proteoforms. Development of cutting-edge mass spectrometric technologies and powerful bioinformatics tools, allowed life-science community mining of disease-specific proteins as biomarkers, which are often hidden by high complexity of the samples and/or small abundance. Nowadays, there are several proteomics-based approaches to study the proteome. This chapter focuses on gold standard proteomics strategies and related issues towards candidate biomarker discovery, which may have diagnostic/prognostic as well as mechanistic utility.
