Proteomic Biomarkers of Atherosclerosis

SUMMARY: Biomarkers provide a powerful approach to understanding the spectrum of cardiovascular diseases. They have application in screening, diagnostic, prognostication, prediction of recurrences and monitoring of therapy. The "omics" tool are becoming very useful in the development of new biomarkers in cardiovascular diseases. Among them, proteomics is especially fitted to look for new protei...

Biomarkers of Keloid Formation: Clinical Applications in Oculoplastic Surger

Many factors go into the complicated process of keloid formation including: inflation, protein formation, and immunoregulators, all of which are influenced in part by certain biomarkers that control these processes at a biochemical level. Although the exact incidence and prevalence of keloids has not been determined, it is reported that the prevalence can be as high as 5 to 16 percent of patien...
