Abstract
Novel approaches to protein measurement based on mass spectrometry are being developed that challenge more traditional methods. This review summarizes the emergence of mass spectrometry as a tool for clinical protein, peptide, and amino acid determination. Specific applications of mass spectrometry to the measurement of transferrin, transthyretin, glycated hemoglobin, and homocysteine will be discussed, as will the limitations of the technology, and future directions for clinical protein measurement.
Keywords: mass spectrometry, transferrin, transthyretin, glycated hemoglobin, homocysteine, electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (esims), matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry(maldi-ms), glycovariants, serum transferrin, transthyretin variants

Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
