Mass Spectrometry Based Proteomics : Toward understanding neuropathic pain

Abstract: The aim of this project was to get insight into mass spectrometry based proteomics, get familiarized with novel techniques, and obtain the operating skills with modern Orbitrap mass spectrometers. In order to achieve this, the proteome changes in neuropathic pain responses corresponding to nerve injury side in individual rat’s spinal cord were explored. We focused in protein identification and quantification of the expressed proteins in 3 different set of samples, SNL, Sham and Naive rats.
