摘要: Abstract The goal of this study was to investigate differences in tear peptidome/proteome profiles aqueous-deficient dry eye, Meibomian gland dysfunction and control individuals. Tears from 93 individuals were collected by capillary subjected solid-phase extraction followed MALDI-TOF for profiling analysis. Obtained spectra aligned variable penalty dynamic time warping (VPdtw) the resulting data analyzed using multivariate statistics. Comparative analyses revealed good performance VPdtw a high discrimination groups with correct assignment 89.3% twelve informative peaks. SDS–PAGE MALDI-TOF/TOF analysis allowed identification lipocalin-1 as biomarker candidate.
