Non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease proteomics

Abstract

Following this approach we identified two candidate markers, carbamoyl phosphate synthase 1 and 78 kDa glucose-regulated protein, differentially expressed between control and NASH. This proteomics approach demonstrates that DIGE combined with MALDI TOF/TOF and Western blot analysis of tissue and serum samples is a useful approach to identify candidate markers associated with NAFLD, resulting in proteins whose level of expression can be correlated to a disease state.
