Study of cancer has been always in a great attention in the field of clinical studies. In order to decipher the nature of the disease, it is prominent to evaluate molecular level of it. Advances in molecular sciences have been assisting the evaluation of cancer disorders. Proteomics approaches can accel-erate early detection, diagnosis and treat-ment of cancer. Early detection methods of cancer research have been very convenient, but not as practical as proteomics can provide the required sensitively and specif-icity. In addition, proteomics has been offered the expedient way to discover the whole proteome of the organelle. It is also applied for biomarker discovery, patient monitoring and drug design. Plasma and urine are one of the most beneficial sources for examining biomarkers due to their cha-nge as the tumor progresses these changes are related to protein expression altern-ations. Collectively, by applying some rec-ent advances in mass spectrometry and bioinformatics in this field, it is possible to account proteomics as one of the most promising methods for assessing biological systems.
