Though central precocious puberty (CPP) as a disease that seriously affects the development of a child is increasing year by year, treatment options remain limited and is the same as the 1980s' method. These are mainly due to the complex pathogenesis of central precocious puberty. Therefore, systems biology approach to identify and explore the multiple factors related to the pathogenesis of central precocious puberty is necessary. Our data established the first proteome profile of CPP revealed 163 down-regulated and 129 were up-regulated differentially expressed proteins. These altered proteins were primarily enriched in three metabolic process including energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism and nitrogenous base metabolism. The identified altered members of the metabolic signaling are valuable and potential novel therapeutic targets of central precocious puberty.
