心血管蛋白质组学中心
The 波士顿大学心血管蛋白质组学中心(CPC) is a research center funded by the NIH/NHLBI to analyze and identify proteins that may be modified or created by cardiovascular disease (CVD) brought on by unfavorable metabolic conditions and diseases, including obesity, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. CPC正在开发和应用靶向蛋白质组学方法和生物信息学工具来检测异常代谢对蛋白质的影响。 一组代谢功能障碍标记物的鉴定可能提供了作为该疾病的组织特异性生物标记物的机会。 这些将为代谢性心血管疾病的检测和监测提供新的有力方法。
