Mass Spectrometric Analysis of Cerebrospinal Fluid Protein for Glioma and its Clinical Applications

DOI:

10.7727/wimj.2015.233

Synopsis:

The combination of SELDI-TOF-MS and bioinformatics tools is a very effective method for screening and identifying new marker of glioma. The established diagnosis models have provided a new way for the clinical diagnosis of glioma, especially for qualitative diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To establish and evaluate the fingerprint diagnostic models of cerebrospinal protein profile in glioma Using surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS) and bioinformatics analysis, for seeking new tumor markers.
