Purpose: This review aims to summarize the technological advances in the field of antibody-based biomarker studies by proteome microarray and phage display. In addition, the possible development directions of this field are also discussed.
Experimental design: We have focused on the antibody profiling by proteome microarray and phage display, including the technological advances, the tools/resources constructed, and the characteristics of both platforms.
Results: With the help of tools/resources and technological advances in proteome microarray and phage display, the efficiency of profiling antibody-based biomarkers in serum samples has been greatly improved.
Conclusions: In the past few years, proteome microarray and phage display, especially the latter one, have already demonstrated their capacity and efficiency for biomarker identification. In the near future, we believe that more antibody-based biomarkers could be identified, and some of them could eventually be developed into real clinical applications.
Keywords: antibody; biomarkers; phage display; proteome microarray; serum.
