Proteomics Landscape Mapping of Organ‐Resolved Behçet's Disease Using In‐Depth Plasma Proteomics for Identifying Hyaluronic Binding Protein 2 Expression Associated With Vascular Involvement

Arthritis RheumatolPublished Case-control proteomics study

Authors' conclusion

Our results provide valuable insight into the pathogenesis of organ-resolved BD in terms of proteomics characteristics and potential biomarkers for clinical assessment and potential therapies for vascular BD.
