ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Studying immune signaling has been critical for our understanding of immunology, pathogenesis, cancer, and homeostasis. To enhance the breadth of the analysis, high throughput methods have been developed to survey multiple areas simultaneously, including transcriptomics, reporter assays, and ELISAs. While these techniques have been extremely informative, mass-spectrometry-based technologies have been gaining momentum and starting to be widely used in the studies of immune signaling and systems immunology. AREAS COVERED We present established proteomic methods that have been used to address immune signaling and discuss the new mass-spectrometry- based techniques of interest to the expanding field of systems immunology. Established and new proteomic methods and their applications discussed here include post-translational modification analysis, protein quantification, secretome analysis, and interactomics. In addition, we present developments in small molecule and metabolite analysis, mass spectrometry imaging, and single cell analysis. Finally, we discuss the role of multi-omic integration in aiding leading edge investigation. EXPERT OPINION In science, available techniques enhance the breadth and depth of the studies. By incorporating proteomic techniques and their innovative use, it will be possible to expand the current studies and to address novel questions at the forefront of scientific discovery.Palavras-chave
