The up-regulated proteins including transthyretin, apolipoprotein E and haptoglobin proteins and the down-regulated proteins such as clusterin, carbonic anhydrase 1, alpha-1-antitrypsin were differentially expressed in the plasma between the chemo-sensitive group and the chemoresistant group, which may be potential biomarkers for predicting the chemotresistance of epithelial ovarian cancer patients. Here, TTR is linked to ovarian carcinoma.
