ProteinChip clinical proteomics: computational challenges and solutions.

چکیده
ProteinChip technology, a suite of analytical tools that includes retentate chromatography, on-chip protein characterization, and multivariate analysis, allows researchers to examine patterns ofprotein expression and modification. Based on the surface enhanced laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS) approach, ProteinChip technology has been pioneered by researchers at Ciphergen Biosystems (Fremont, CA, USA), as well as by users of Ciphergen's commercial embodiment of this technology the ProteinChip Biomarker System. This report will begin with a background of the technology and describe its applications in clinical proteomics and will then conclude with a discussion of tools and strategies to mine the large amounts of data generated during the course of a typical clinical proteomics study.

Quality control and peak finding for proteomics data collected from nipple aspirate fluid by surface-enhanced laser desorption and ionization.
BACKGROUND Recently, researchers have been using mass spectroscopy to study cancer. For use of proteomics spectra in a clinical setting, stringent quality-control procedures will be needed. METHODS We pooled samples of nipple aspirate fluid from healthy breasts and breasts with cancer to prepare a control sample. Aliquots of the control sample were used on two spots on each of three IMAC Prot...
متن کاملThe ProteinChip Biomarker System from Ciphergen Biosystems: a novel proteomics platform for rapid biomarker discovery and validation.
Protein biochips are emerging in two distinct formats. The first involves high-density immobilized arrays of recognition molecules (e.g. antibodies), where target binding is monitored indirectly (e.g. via fluorescence). This technology is in its infancy, being limited by the availability of suitable binding molecules that can cope effectively with protein diversity. The second format involves t...

Ciphergen’s ProteinChip® System is built to analyze proteins captured on ProteinChip Arrays by means of a ProteinChip Reader integrated with ProteinChip Software and a personal computer. The ProteinChip System detects and accurately calculates the mass of compounds ranging from small molecules and peptides of less than 1000 Da up to proteins of 500 kDa or more based on measured time-of-flight. ...
متن کاملProtein profiling of microdissected pancreas carcinoma and identification of HSP27 as a potential serum marker.
BACKGROUND Patients with pancreatic adenocarcinomas have a poor prognosis because of late clinical manifestation and the tumor's aggressive nature. We used proteomic techniques to search for markers of pancreatic carcinoma. METHODS We performed protein profiling of microdissected cryostat sections of 9 pancreatic adenocarcinomas and 10 healthy pancreatic tissue samples using ProteinChip techn...
