Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Proteomics is a new field of research in the post-genomic era. The research subjects of proteomics include the structure and function of entire proteins in tissues or cells. It analyses the vital changes of pathological and physiological process of diseases by examining proteins.
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the application of proteomics in orthopedic diseases and its prospect.
METHODS: Articles about the application of proteomics in orthopedic diseases and its prospect were retrieved from the Digital Library Alliance of Zhujiang River Delta and PubMed with the key words of “proteomics, orthopedics, review, osteoblasts metabolism, osteoclasts metabolism, intervertebral disc degeneration, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, serum related orthopedic diseases” in both Chinese and English from January 2001 to September 2013. Reproductive research and atypical reports were excluded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Proteomics has been applied in the osteoblasts metabolism, osteoclasts metabolism, intervertebral disc degeneration, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and serum related orthopedic diseases that are the most common illnesses in all types of people. These basic and clinical studies undoubtedly bring great benefit for human health, and proteomics technology will get a bigger breakthrough in basic medicine and clinical medicine, and it shows us a broad prospect.
