Study (Year) Proteomes Analyzed Biomarker(s) Identified Changes in Biomarker(s) Biomarker(s) Function
McReynolds et al. [69] Secretomes of morphologically similar aneuploidy vs. euploidy blastocysts Lipocalin-1 Differentially expressed between aneuploidy and euploidy blastocysts; reflects aneuploidy rather than failed implantation; if overexpressed, causes protease/anti-protease imbalance inhibiting implantation Binds to hydrophobic ligands; inhibits cysteine proteases; high levels signify stress, infection, and inflammation
Tsangaris et al. [68] Amniotic fluid of Down Syndrome fetuses (cases) vs. healthy fetuses (controls) Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins 40% less in Down Syndrome cases than in controls Transport
Wang et al. [126] Amniotic fluid of Down Syndrome fetuses (cases)vs.  healthy fetuses (controls) Pre-albumin, transferrin, trypsin Higher in Down Syndrome cases than in controls Transport, serine protease
Tsangaris et al. [68] Turner Syndrome fetuses (cases) vs. healthy fetuses (controls) Serotransferrrin, lumican, plasma retinol-binding protein, apolipoprotein A1 kiniogen, prothrombin, apolipoprotein A-IV a. Higher in cases than controls     b. Higher in controls than cases Fetal growth and development Nutrient cofactors and hormone carriers
Wang et al. [126] Trisomy 18 fetuses (cases) vs. healthy fetuses (controls) a. Apolipoprotein A1, phaeodactylum tricornumtum, antitrypsin b. placental protein 14 a. Higher in controls than cases   b. Higher in cases than controls Immunity, skin pigmentation, platelet disorders
