Breast cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among women comprising about 12% females worldwide. The underlying alteration in the gene expression, molecular mechanism and metabolic pathways responsible for incidence and progression of breast tumorigenesis are yet not completely understood. In the present study, potential biomarker genes involved in the early progression for early diagnosis of breast cancer has been detailed. Regulation and Gene profiling of Ductal Carcinoma In-situ (DCIS), Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC) and healthy samples have been analyzed to follow their expression pattern employing normalization, statistical calculation, DEGs annotation and Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) network. We have performed a comparative study on differentially expressed genes among Healthy vs DCIS, Healthy vsIDC and DCIS vs IDC. We found MCM102 and SLC12A8as consistently overexpressed and LEP,

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, which uses high-resolution hybrid mass spectrometers such as the quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometer, can yield tens of thousands of tandem mass (MS/MS) spectra of high resolution during a routine bottom-up experiment. Despite being a fundamental and key step in MS-based proteomics, the accurate determination and assignment of precursor monoisotopic masses to the MS/MS spectra remains difficult. The difficulties stem from imperfect isotopic envelopes of precursor ions, inaccurate charge states for precursor ions, and cofragmentation. We describe a composite method of utilizing MS data to assign accurate monoisotopic masses to MS/MS spectra, including those subject to cofragmentation. The method, “multiplexed post-experiment monoisotopic mass refinement” (mPE-MMR), consists of the following: multiplexing of precursor masses to assign multiple monoisotopic masses of cofragmented peptides to the corresponding multiplexed MS/MS spectra, multiplexing of charge states to assign correct charges to the precursor ions of MS/ MS spectra with no charge information, and mass correction for inaccurate monoisotopic peak picking. When combined with MS-GF+, a database search algorithm based on fragment mass difference, mPE-MMR effectively increases both sensitivity and accuracy in peptide identification from complex high-throughput proteomics data compared to conventional methods.

Bioactive peptides are present in most soy products and eggs and have essential protective functions. Infection is a core feature of innate immunity that affects blood pressure and the glucose level, and ageing can be delayed by killing senescent cells. Food also encrypts bioactive peptides and protein sequences produced through proteolysis or food processing. Unique food protein fragments can improve human health and avoid metabolic diseases, inflammation, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes mellitus. This review focuses on drug targets and fundamental mechanisms of bioactive peptides on metabolic syndromes, namely obesity and type 2 diabetes, to provide new ideas and knowledge on the ability of bioactive peptide to control metabolic syndromes.
