Cardiovascular Proteomics

This cutting-edge book presents protocols and strategies for proteomic evaluation of cardiovascular disease written by pioneering researchers in the field. Topics explored in this comprehensive volume include obtaining specific heart proteins, techniques for identifying risk biomarkers of atherome plaque rupture, analyzing the secretome of explanted endarterectomies cultured in vitro, and phage display techniques for deciphering the molecular diversity of blood vessels. "...a fine collection of methods and protocols currently employed in cardiovascular proteomics that will be of great use to all who are invovled in cardiovascular research." -Proteomics Clin. Appl. "...a thorough set of protocols for the cardiac biology community. Most laboratories will have some of these in place, but can profit from the broad coverage of this book." -Doody's Book Review, Weighted Numerical Score: 76 - 3 stars
