This case-control study utilized mass spectrometry-based proteomics to compare exosomes from non-diabetic stroke (nDS=14), diabetic stroke (DS=13), and healthy control (HC=12) subjects. Among 1288 identified proteins, 387 were statistically compared. Statistical comparisons using a general linear model (log2 foldchange 0.58 and FDR-p0.05) were performed for nDS vs. HC, DS vs. HC, and DS vs. nDS. DS vs. HC and DS vs. nDS comparisons produced 155 and 159 differentially expressed proteins, respectively.
