Plasma Proteomic Profiling Reveals ITGA2B as A Key Regulator of Heart Health in High-altitude Settlers

Abstract excerpt

Myocardial injury is a common disease in the plateau, especially in the lowlanders who have migrated to the plateau, in which the pathogenesis is not well understood. Here, we established a cohort of lowlanders comprising individuals from both low-altitude and high-altitude areas and conducted plasma proteomic profiling. Proteomic data showed that there was a significant shift in energy metabolism and...
