(A) LC–MS/MS based bottom-up proteomic workflow. Platelets isolated from blood are subjected to lysis, enzymatic digestion, separation of peptides on a reversed-phase LC column, ionized (ESI), and mass analyzed (MS). (B) Modes of MS data acquisition. Three main strategies for data acquisition: data-dependent acquisition (DDA), data-independent acquisition (DIA), and targeted acquisition by multiple or parallel reaction monitoring (MRM or PRM). The DDA and DIA are aimed to analyze global proteomic changes, whereas the targeted methods focused on monitoring preselected target proteins with high precision and accuracy.
