Tear fluid is amenable to non-invasive and repeated collection, making it a practical specimen for evaluating exercise-related physiological responses. However, the immediate proteome-wide alterations in tear fluid following acute exercise have not been characterised. In this study, we performed quantitative proteomic profiling of paired tear samples from healthy female participants before and immediately after a single exercise session using data-independent acquisition liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (DIA-LC-MS/MS). Among the 3,173 identified proteins, 744 were significantly altered post-exercise, of which 484 were up-regulated and 260 down-regulated. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that up-regulated proteins were predominantly associated with translation and ribosome biogenesis, whereas down-regulated proteins were involved in glycan metabolism, lysosomal processing, and extracellular matrix organisation. Collectively, these findings indicate that acute exercise elicits a rapid and coordinated reconfiguration of the tear proteome. This investigation provides a molecular basis for understanding exercise-mediated modulation of tear composition and ocular surface homeostasis.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
