RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Proteomics in stroke research: potentials of the nascent proteomics JF Journal of Investigative Medicine JO J Investig Med FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd SP 1236 OP 1240 DO 10.1136/jim-2016-000186 VO 64 IS 8 A1 An Zhou YR 2016 UL http://hw-f5-jim.highwire.org/content/64/8/1236.abstract AB Among omics, the proteomics assumes a unique role in that it offers the effectors or actuators of a biological condition. This brief review attempts to summarize the development in a relatively new but important subdiscipline of proteomics, the so-called nascent proteomics, and its potential applications in stroke research. First, we will discuss a few examples of proteomics-led discoveries in stroke research, and challenges or unmet demands when using commonly practiced proteomics approaches. Then we will introduce nascent proteomics and its studying tools, followed by discussions on its potentials in stroke research.
