Abstract

Proteomic technologies have emerged as an important addition to genomic and antibody-based technology for diagnosis of cancer. Important technologies include 2-D Gel Electrophoresis, Mass Spectroscopy, Laser capture microdissection, detection of molecular markers of cancer, and protein pattern proteomic technologies have a potential in developing molecular diagnostics and markers for the early detection of cancer. Proteomics is valuable in the discovery of biomarkers because the proteomes reflect both the intrinsic genetic program of the cell and impacts of its environment. However, I will say that proteomics is the most powerful tool that has emerged to study the cancer or diagnosis of cancer in early stages.
