PROTEOME ANALYSIS OF BLOOD PLASMA OF BREAST CANCER PATIENTS
Abstract
Using two dimensional gel-electrophoresis method it was shown that blood plasma proteomic profiles are different for patients with various subtypes of breast cancer. Identified differences consist in the appearance of additional new proteins and changes in the expression of proteins present in norm on blood plasma proteomic maps of patients with breast cancer as compared to donors.
