To screen differentially expressed proteins in serum in patients with Keshan disease (KD), peripheral blood protein expression spectrum between subjects with Keshan disease and health controls were compared. Differentially expressed protein spots were screened by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) between Keshan disease and health control subjects, and constitutive protein were identified by matrix assisted laser adsorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). 9 differentially expressed protein spots were showed in 2-DE images and 8 differentially expressed proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. In them, 3 up-regulated proteins, mainly relatedd to lipid metabolism, apoptosis resistance, immunological regulation and 3 down-regulated proteins, involved to cellular iron ion homeostasis; 2 up-regulated proteins in serum in patients with KD versus controls from KD areas were detected, mainly associated with protease inhibition. Haptoglobin, serum albumin, alpha-l-antitrypsin, transferring and alpha2-heremans schmid glycoprotein may be considered as candidate biological indicators used for diagnosis or prognosis of KD.
