Dithiothreitol-based protein equalisation in the context of multiple myeloma: Enhancing proteomic analysis and therapeutic insights.

In this study, we employed the dithiothreitol-based protein equalisation technique and analytical proteomics to better understand myeloma diseases by comparing the proteomes of pellets and supernatants formed upon application of DTT on serum samples. The number of unique proteins found in pellets was 252 for healthy individuals and 223 for multiple myeloma patients. The comparison of these proteomes showed 97 dysregulated proteins.
