Clinical Pulse-Labeling of Plasma Proteins and Sample Analysis Recently, a unique pulse-chase study was described in which blood samples collected from human subjects infused with stable isotope labeled leucine were analyzed using an immunoaffinity mass-spectrometric approach to determine protein turnover rates (3). Importantly, of the 24 proteins, 19 had turnover rates shorter than 5 days, and of those, 8 proteins approximately 1 day or less. [...]for proteins with shorter half-lives, accurate measurement of variations in protein con- centration on a personal level would require a daily sampling frequency.
