Proteomic analyses identify global differences in protein abundance and biological processes in paired samples of ruptured and stable human carotid artery plaque segments.

A, Correspondence analysis was applied to the 1161 identified proteins. Individual plaques from the 2 areas are represented by colored spheres. B, Heatmap of 2-dimensional hierarchical cluster analysis for the 489 proteins that are differentially abundant (false discovery rate [FDR]<0.05) between ruptured and stable plaque segments. A complete list of these proteins is in Data Set XII in the Data Supplement. C, Functional enrichment analysis of the differentially abundant proteins reveals over-represented biological processes. A complete list is in Data Sets XIII and XIV in the Data Supplement.
