Table 1.

List of major proteomic profiling studies of skeletal muscle tissues from prediabetic and diabetic patients or animal models of type 2 diabetes.

Proteomic study New potential biomarkers References
Proteomic analysis of human vastus lateralis muscle from type 2 diabetic subjects Select number of potential markers of diabetes; abnormal phosphorylation of ATP synthase; elevated levels of stress proteins [77, 78]

Proteomic profiling of skeletal muscle biopsy material from patients suffering from type 2 diabetes Establishment of a large number of muscle-associated signature molecules of type 2 diabetes; changed abundance in various mitochondrial proteins; abnormal phosphorylation of ATP synthase beta-subunit [7981]

Proteomic profiling of rectus abdominus tissue from obese and morbidly obese women with potential prediabetic side effects Increased levels of key glycolytic enzymes suggests an obesity-related compensatory glycolytic shift in muscle metabolism [87]

Proteomic analysis of gastrocnemius muscle from the nonobese Goto-Kakizaki rat model of type 2 diabetes Changes in muscle proteins associated with the contractile apparatus, the antioxidant defense system, detoxification mechanisms, the cellular stress response, glucose metabolism, fatty acid utilization, nucleotide metabolism, and amino acid metabolism [82, 83]

Subproteomic survey of the muscle mitochondria-enriched fraction from the non-obese Goto-Kakizaki rat model of type 2 diabetes Differential expression of various mitochondrial marker proteins agrees with the idea that mitochondrial dysregulation plays a role in type 2 diabetes [84]

Comparative proteomic study of fenofibrate-dependent protein expression in skeletal muscle from type 2 diabetic OLETF rats Increased levels of the functionally unknown muscle protein C11orf59 in a fenofibrate-dependent manner in diabetic rat muscle [85]

Proteomic analysis of obese and potentially prediabetic animal models Generally perturbed protein expression levels in obese muscles, affecting especially metabolic enzymes [8892]
