Abstract

Studying proteins expressed in placenta is important to understand its function in pregnancy and fetal growth. Here, we present protein expression profiling from normal human placenta by 2-D gel - MS/MS approach that resulted in identification of 117 unique proteins. Integration with earlier analyses resulted in a profile of 423 non-redundant proteins, 75 of them being new identifications unique to this study including their isoforms. We present a compilation of placental protein expressions identified by proteomic approaches, their functions and known clinical implications. We believe that our dataset would be a useful resource for studies related to placental dysfunction.
