Biomarker Discovery

Genes, proteins, small molecules, or metabolites can be used as biomarkers of a biological process or disease. However, a significant number of diseases are related to the dysfunction of a protein and its interaction. Therefore, understanding the functions of proteins and their changes helps to understand diseases.

Proteomic analysis of human tissues and fluids allows the detection and quantification of a large number of proteins, leading to the discovery of potential biomarkers.
