We studied a set of plasma proteins accessed from the Healthy Human Individual's Integrated Plasma Proteome (HIP(2)) database, a larger set of curated human proteins, and a subset of inflammatory proteins, for overlap with sets of known protein biomarkers, drug targets, and secreted proteins. Most inflammatory proteins were found to occur in plasma, and over three times the level of b ...[more]
