Zusammenfassung

In biologischen Systemen wird Information von DNA über mRNA zur Proteinebene weitergegeben. Durch Prozesse wie alternatives Splicen der RNA und posttranslationale Modifikationen nimmt die Komplexität von der DNA-zur Proteinebene hin zu, weshalb Genomics als alleiniger Ansatz in der neuropsychiatrischen Forschung nicht ausreichend erscheint. Der moderne Forschungsansatz Proteomics erlaubt eine massenspektrometrische Proteinidentifikation einer Vielzahl von Proben unter geringem zeitlichen Aufwand. Durch die proteomanalytische Charakterisierung von Körperflüssigkeiten (wie Blut, Liquor, Urin) können dabei Biomarker detektiert werden, die Hilfestellung bei diagnostischen Prozessen, bei der Einschätzung der individuellen Prognose und der Therapieüberwachung von psychiatrischen Erkrankungen geben können. Im Folgenden sollen aktuelle proteomanalytische Methoden und Ergebnisse zur Proteomics-Biomarker-Forschung in der Psychiatrie vorgestellt werden. Zudem werden Möglichkeiten und Limitierungen von Proteomics diskutiert.

Summary

In biosystems, information is transcribed from DNA to mRNA and finally translated at the protein level. Processes such as alternative splicing and post-translational modification increase the complexity of the translation to the mature protein. It is clear that a simple genomic approach to neuropsychiatric research is insufficient. In the modern research field of proteomics, proteins are identified usinga large-scale high-throughput mass spectrometric approach. The proteomic characterization of human biofluids is likely to result in the identification of disease biomarkers with the potential to strengthen psychiatric diagnoses, assess prognoses and monitor therapy courses. In this article we give an overview of currently used proteomic tools and discuss the results of proteomics and biomarker research in psychiatry. We will also include an assessment of the opportunities and pitfalls of proteomic technologies.
