Because of its availability, ease collection, and correlation with physiology pathology, urine is an attractive source for clinical proteomics/peptidomics. However, the lack comparable data sets from large cohorts has greatly hindered development proteomics. Here, we report establishment a reproducible, high resolution method peptidome analysis naturally occurring human urinary peptides proteins, ranging 800 to 17,000 Da, using samples 3,600 individuals analyzed by capillary electrophoresis...

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a progressive kidney disease, well-known complication of long-standing diabetes. DN the most frequent reason for dialysis in many Western countries. Early detection may enable development specific drugs and early initiation therapy, thereby postponing/preventing need renal replacement therapy. We evaluated urinary proteome analysis as tool prediction DN. Capillary electrophoresis-coupled mass spectrometry was used to profile low-molecular weight urine. examined...

Abstract Owing to its availability, ease of collection, and correlation with pathophysiology diseases, urine is an attractive source for clinical proteomics. However, many proteomic studies have had only limited impact, due factors such as modest numbers subjects, absence disease controls, small defined biomarkers, diversity analytical platforms. Therefore, it difficult merge biomarkers from different into a broadly applicable human urinary proteome database. Ideally, the methodology...

Telomere dysfunction limits the proliferative capacity of human cells by activation DNA damage responses, inducing senescence or apoptosis. In humans, telomere shortening occurs in vast majority tissues during aging, and is accelerated chronic diseases that increase rate cell turnover. Yet, functional role aging remains under debate. Here, we identified marker proteins (i.e., CRAMP, stathmin, EF-1α, chitinase) are secreted from telomere-dysfunctional bone-marrow late generation telomerase...
