6 Concluding Comments
The biomarker has increasingly become a powerful research tool for assessing and
monitoring physical excise, training status, and performance. Although consider-
able challenges exist, advances such as high-throughput screening platforms to
screen gene expression, protein coding or even epigenetic modulation technologies
become increasingly mature in the field of sports medicine. More importantly, com-
pared with the traditional time-consuming and labor-intensive detection methods,
modern biomarker system offers accurate, fast, reproducible, and highly sensitive
high-throughput screening at a cost-effective price point. These innovations are nec-
essary for big data-driven cutting-edge bioinformatics products which are emerging
fields in sports medicine and biomarker research. We expect that the information we
provided in this review will not only illustrate by summarizing existing knowledge
and filling the gaps in knowledge but also spark inspiration for future heart-specific
biomarker studies.
