Proteomics is an indispensable tool for disease biomarker discovery. It is widely used for the analysis of biological fluids such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), blood, and saliva, which further aids in our understanding of disease incidence and progression. CSF is often the biospecimen of choice in case of intracranial tumors, as rapid changes in the tumor microenvironment can be easily assessed due to its close proximity to the brain. On the contrary studies comprising of serum or plasma samples do not truly reflect the underlying molecular alterations due to the presence of protective blood-brain barrier. We have described in here the detailed workflows for two advanced proteomics techniques, namely, 2D-DIGE (two-dimensional difference in-gel electrophoresis) and iTRAQ (isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation), for CSF analysis. Both of these techniques are very sensitive and widely used for quantitative proteomics analysis.

Exposure to saline environments significantly hampers the growth and productivity of oil crops, harmfully affecting their nutritional quality and suitability for biofuel production. This presents a critical challenge, as understanding salt tolerance mechanisms in crops is key to improving their performance in coastal and high-salinity regions. Our content might be read more properly: This review assembles current knowledge on protein-level changes related to salinity resistance in oil crops.

(), a ubiquitous filamentous fungus, has demonstrated remarkable potential in the bioremediation of lead-contaminated environments. Its inherent tolerance and bioaccumulation capacity for lead (Pb), coupled with its relatively rapid growth rate, make it an attractive candidate for bioremediation applications. This study aims to identify the proteomic changes in induced by Pb metal stress and unravel the roles of identified proteins in molecular mechanisms and cellular responses.

Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) is a gel-based protein separation method based on size and charge which is commonly used for the characterization of host cell proteins (HCPs) during drug development in biotech and pharmaceutical companies. HCPs are a heterogenous mixture of proteins produced by host cells during a biologics drug manufacturing process. Different gel electrophoresis methods including traditional 2D SDS-PAGE with silver and SYPRO Ruby fluorescent dye staining as well as two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) were compared for their relative abilities to characterize HCPs.

A key aspect that must be supervised during the development of recombinant therapeutic products is the potential presence of impurities. Residual host cell proteins (HCPs) are a major class of process-related impurities derived from the host organism that even in trace amount have the potential to affect product quality, safety, and efficacy. Therefore, the product purification processes must be optimized to consistently remove as many HCPs as feasible, with the goal of making the product as pure as possible.

Background: Monitoring target engagement at various stages of drug development is essential for natural product (NP)-based drug discovery and development. The cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) developed in 2013 is a novel, broadly applicable, label-free biophysical assay based on the principle of ligand-induced thermal stabilization of target proteins, which enables direct assessment of drug-target engagement in physiologically relevant contexts, including intact cells, cell lysates and tissues. This review aims to provide an overview of the work principles of CETSA and its derivative strategies and their recent progress in protein target validation, target identification and drug lead discovery of NPs.
