Abstract
Proteomics tools provide a powerful means to identify, detect, and quantify protein-related details in studies of platelet phenotype and function. Here, we consider how historical and recent advances in proteomics approaches have informed our understanding of platelet biology, and, how proteomics tools can be used going forward to advance studies of platelets. It is now apparent that the platelet proteome is comprised of thousands of different proteins, where specific changes in platelet protein systems can accompany alterations in platelet function in health and disease. Going forward, many challenges remain in how to best carry out, validate and interpret platelet proteomics experiments. Future studies of platelet protein post-translational modifications such as glycosylation, or studies that take advantage of single cell proteomics and top-down proteomics methods all represent areas of interest to profiling and more richly understanding platelets in human wellness and disease.
期刊介绍:
Platelets is an international, peer-reviewed journal covering all aspects of platelet- and megakaryocyte-related research.
Platelets provides the opportunity for contributors and readers across scientific disciplines to engage with new information about blood platelets. The journal’s Methods section aims to improve standardization between laboratories and to help researchers replicate difficult methods.
Research areas include:
Platelet function
Biochemistry
Signal transduction
Pharmacology and therapeutics
Interaction with other cells in the blood vessel wall
The contribution of platelets and platelet-derived products to health and disease
The journal publishes original articles, fast-track articles, review articles, systematic reviews, methods papers, short communications, case reports, opinion articles, commentaries, gene of the issue, and letters to the editor.
Platelets operates a single-blind peer review policy. Authors can choose to publish gold open access in this journal.
