The Proteomics and Metabolomics Shared Resource (PMSR) supported in part by the Wake Forest Baptist Comprehensive Cancer Center (WFBCCC) provides advanced mass spectrometry services, complementary assays (e.g., mitochondrial energy metabolism) and scientific consultation.

PMSR services focus on discovery, identification, characterization and quantification of biomolecules, including proteins, lipids and metabolites and other small molecules (e.g., drugs, dietary supplements) applied to all types of biological materials (cells, tissue, biological fluids), including clinical specimens.

In addition to the fee-for-service analyses, the PMSR offers options to accommodate various needs such as training and project-based collaborations.

Focus Areas

The PMSR focuses on the implementation of state-of-the-art MS techniques in translational and clinical research.

  • Integration of molecular and multi-omics approaches into functional diagnostic platforms.
  • Discovery of novel clinical targets (single proteins or interactomes).
  • Validation of clinical biomarkers for early non-invasive diagnosis and disease monitoring.
  • Identification of biomarkers of response to drugs or other therapies.
