Proteomics analysis of an individual formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue section using isobaric-tag amplification.

The integration of an isobaric labeling approach, in conjunction with synthetic peptides or proteins, presents a valuable strategy for enhancing the detection and validation of target proteins in FFPE tissue analysis. This technique holds immense potential in retrospective clinical studies, as it enables comprehensive analysis of low-abundance proteins and facilitating proteome-scale investigations in FFPE samples. By leveraging this methodology, researchers can unlock new insights into disease mechanisms and advance our understanding of complex biological processes.
