title: LC-MSEfor Qualitative and Quantitative Proteomic Studies of Psychiatric Disorders.
abstract: This chapter describes the advantages and disadvantages of label-free liquid chromatography mass spectrometry in data-independent analysis mode (LC-MSE) in the identification of disease biomarkers in studies of psychiatric disorders. Along with the description of the technology, we discuss some of the most significant findings from various studies of post-mortem brain and neuroendocrine tissues from psychiatric disorder patients compared with controls. In addition, we describe some of the needs and challenges of performing these analyses in body fluids and peripheral tissues from living patients in order to increase translation of the findings into the clinical environment.
