Project description:Cytokines secreted by WT and fascin1 KO BM-DCs maturated by LPS were determined by RayBio Quantibody mouse Th17 array1. Fascin1 KO BM-DCs show reduced secretion of several cytokines including IL-6.
Project description:The aim of the study was to determine the epitope targeted by four different HumAbs and the cross-reactivity to linear peptide epitopes of 10 different Neisserial Heparin Binding Antigen (NHBA) variants. the HumAbs were diluted at 1:60 and incubated on a custom PepStar Peptide Microarray platform printed with 561 different peptides.
Project description:The aim of the study was to determine the epitope targeted by four different HumAbs and the cross-reactivity to linear peptide epitopes of 5 different Neisserial adesin A (NadA) variants. the HumAbs were diluted at 1:200 and incubated on a custom PepStar Peptide Microarray platform printed with 348 different peptides.
Project description:The aim of the study was to determine the epitope targeted by 5 different HumAbs and the cross-reactivity to linear peptide epitopes of 12 different factor H binding protein (fHbp) variants. The HumAbs were diluted at 1:200 and incubated on a custom PepStar Peptide Microarray platform printed with 363 different peptides.
Project description:11 BRAF inhibitor resistance melanoma cells were treated with PAK inhibitor PF3758309 for 48 hr, the cell lysis were analyzed by RPPA profiling by protein array (RPPA)
Project description:Advancing precision medicine in the field of cancer is still curbed by the fact that a rational basis to predict treatment outcome is missing. To unravel the mechanism behind targeted drugs (trastuzumab, pertuzumab, erlotinib), mathematical modeling employing ordinary differential equations (ODE) was combined with wet-lab experimentation. Experimentation relied on systematic perturbation experiments to monitor the signaling-response towards drugs in the context of EGF signaling in the HER2+ cell lines SKBR3 and HCC1954.
Project description:In a two-stage study we investigated levels of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) reactivity in plasma from Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) post MDS patients (59 and 16 cases respectively) as compared to healthy cohort (34). In Stage I we utilized high-throughput protein arrays (23 232 total signals, in duplicate) to identify proteins of high-interest. In Stage II we designed new protein arrays (352 total signals, in duplicate) to further focus on 25 of the proteins from Stage I and expanded to a larger cohort, including both male and female samples (161 MDS and 43 AML patients; 112 healthy controls). Stage I resulted in 35 proteins displaying increased IgG reactivity in patients as compared to the healthy controls (P< 4.3 x10-07, Bonferroni Corrected P<0.01). This protein subset included 14 proteins associated with cancer, 12 with apoptosis, and 3 with the NFAT Regulation canonical pathway. Using the focused arrays we performed a classification of MDS patients and healthy controls. Stage II subsequently identified a high-interest focused set of 3 proteins, namely AKT3, FCGR3A and ARL8B displaying aberrant increased reactivity in patient subgroups, in concordance with Stage I. Autoantibody reactivity against specific proteins provides complementary information to other known molecular signatures for MDS and may enhance our capabilities for detecting and classifying MDS. In the study presented here, MDS patients were classified into Stable, Transforming or AML post MDS (L) classes retrospectively. The different patients were compared to a healthy cohort to assess increased autoantibody reactivity to specific patients as opposed to healthy groups
