Serum proteome profiling in canine chronic valve disease using TMT-based quantitative proteomics

Cardiovascular-related disorders (CVD) account for the highest mortality rates in the world, and affect the quality and the quantity of life of patients, creating an economic burden of prolonged therapeutic intervention. The aim of this study was to evaluate the serum protein profile of healthy and CVD affected dogs, by means of an isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) label-based high-resolution quantitative proteomic approach.
