| | Proteomic analysis of heart disease: from molecular mechanism to biomarker development Our laboratory undertakes the study of the protein complement, or proteome, of cells, tissues or body fluids to understand the complex regulation and control that change with disease. This allows us to discover novel changes to the proteome that underpin the molecular mechanisms that drive disease. Furthermore, discovery of new potential biomarkers that are altered in plasma during disease onset and development allows us to create new diagnostics and prognostic tests for clinical use. |
