O autorze

Giulio Agnetti, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiology at Johns Hopkins University. His research over the past 15 years have focused on the clarification of the molecular mechanisms driving the transition from cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure (HF) utilizing proteomic technologies.

Merry Lindsey, PhD is a Professor of Physiology and Medicine and Director of the Mississippi Center for Heart Research at University of Mississippi. She is working extensively in the field of matrix remodeling and cardiac proteomics. Particular interests include inflammatory and fibrotic mechanisms in the pathogenesis of left ventricular remodeling following myocardial infarction, and cardiac aging.

D. Brian Foster, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiology and Director of the Laboratory of Cardiovascular Biochemistry at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His lab uses the tools of protein biochemistry and proteomics to tackle fundamental problems in cardiac preconditioning, cardiomyopathy and heart failure.

This book highlights the remarkable advances that have contributed to the development of proteomics over the last two decades. While many of the concepts, methods, and technologies can be widely applied across fields of biomedical research, this book has been tailored for the cardiovascular researcher, with the many facets of cardiovascular disease reflected within the chapters.

New methods and technologies are discussed in a manner that is understandable to scientists who are new to the proteomics arena in order to accelerate knowledge dissemination. The full measure of topics that define modern cardiovascular proteomics have been covered, including but not limited to experimental design, sample preparation and separation, mass spectrometry technologies, protein identification and quantitation, as well as statistical, pathway and network analyses of proteomics results.

Manual of Cardiac Proteomics addresses many of the technical subtleties to be considered when embarking on a cardiovascular proteomic study. It as an invaluable guide for scientists entering the field, as well as clinicians and trainees in cardiology and all related disciplines.
