How the plasma proteome behaves in healthy individuals
“When proteins get personal: A new concept for highly sensitive, multiplexed plasma profiling”
Speakers: Mathias Uhlén, Ph.D., KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden
Ida Grundberg, Ph.D., Olink Proteomics
During the webinar, the audience heard about:
- Assays that can be used to analyze more than a thousand protein targets in blood from very small blood samples
- A longitudinal wellness study showing that individuals have unique and stable plasma protein profiles that correlate strongly with clinical chemistry parameters
- Blood proteins that are impacted by drug treatment, as exemplified by the analysis of patients treated for type 2 diabetes
- Results that support an individual-based definition of health and show the advantages of longitudinal ‘omics profiling for precision medicine.
