Pilot study compares proteomic profiles of emotional and standard tears, indicating potential biomarkers for diseases.

Emotional tears showed significant enrichment in 52 proteins compared to standard tears, suggesting distinct biochemical roles.
A total of 907 proteins were identified across tear samples, highlighting the complexity of tear compositions.
A bottom‐up proteomic approach was utilized to analyze tears from single donors, revealing important differences between tear types.
Understanding the differences between emotional and standard tears may enhance biomarker discovery for disease diagnosis.

Mousseau et al. (2025) studied this question.
