Co-regulatory networks of human serum proteins link genetics to disease

The blood proteome in disease Understanding the function of human blood serum proteins in disease has been limited by difficulties in monitoring their production, accumulation, and distribution. Emilsson et al. investigated human serum proteins of more than 5000 Icelanders over the age of 65. The composition of blood serum includes a complex regulatory network of proteins that are globally coordinated across most or all tissues. The authors...
