Summary of the low abundance proteins detected by target mass spectrometry, from the 23 selected candidates, in the female reproductive tract fluids. Several proteins were detected in high amounts in reproductive fluids in comparison to plasma samples (EFD1, PDIA3, GARS, ENPL, PTGR2, EF2), while others were low abundant (PLMN, TETN), as expected. Several proteins were detected in high amounts in OF when compared to UF and P samples (RL3, EZRI, DYL3, HS90A, NNRE, OVGP1). On the other hand, the proteins THY1, CLH1, IPO9, COTL1, NGAL, SFRP4 were found in higher amounts in uterine fluid. GSTA1 and TSD1 were detected as exclusively high abundant proteins in oviductal fluid, in comparison to plasma, while TRFL was exclusively high abundant in uterine fluid.
