  2. 1. Array-based identification of disease-associated proteins

    Author : Maria Mikus; Peter Nilsson; Jochen M. Schwenk; Ina Schuppe-Koistinen; Dolores Cahill; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Affinity proteomics; Antibody array; Antigen array; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Asthma; Atopic dermatitis; Biomarker discovery; Drug-induced liver injury; Microarray; Plasma; Protein microarray; Protein profiling; Serum; Suspension bead array; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : To increase our understanding of the human body in both health and disease, proteins can be studied in samples such as plasma and serum to provide a molecular profile of the physiological status. In the work presented in this thesis, array-based methods were used to study associations of protein and autoantibody profiles with disease. READ MORE

  4. 2. Characterization of antibody specificity using peptide array technologies

    Author : Björn Forsström; Mathias Uhlén; Markus Templin; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibody; Epitope mapping; Peptide array; Suspension bead array; Antigen; Specificity; Cross-reactivity; Immunization; Immunogenicity; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : Antibodies play an important role in the natural immune response to invading pathogens. The strong and specific binding to their antigens also make them indispensable tools for research, diagnostics and therapy. READ MORE

  5. 3. Array-based Characterization of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia : - with Focus on Subsets Carrying Stereotyped B-cell Receptors

    Author : Millaray Marincevic; Richard Rosenquist; Andreas Rosenwald; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chronic lymphocytic leukemia; array-based characterization; stereotyped B-cell receptors; subsets; antigens; SNP array; gene expression array; methylation array; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Clinical Genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), the presence of multiple subsets expressing ‘stereotyped’ B-cell receptors (BCRs) has implicated antigen(s) in leukemogenesis. These stereotyped subsets display similar immunoglobulin (IG) gene usage, almost identical complementarity determining region 3’s and may share clinical features. READ MORE

  6. 4. Molecular Genetic and DNA Methylation Profiling of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia : A Focus on Divergent Prognostic Subgroups and Subsets

    Author : Nicola Cahill; Richard Rosenquist; Larry Mansouri; Fergus Ryan; Denis Alexander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; DNA methylation; Chronic lymphocytic leukemia; SNP; array; IGHV3-21; IGHV4-34; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi; Genetics; Genetik; Medical Genetics; Medicinsk genetik; Molecular Biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Abstract : Advancements in prognostication have improved the subdivision of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) into diverse prognostic subgroups. In CLL, IGHV unmutated and IGHV3-21 genes are associated with a poor-prognosis, conversely, IGHV mutated genes with a favourable outcome. READ MORE

  7. 5. Protein microarrays for validation of affinity binders

    Author : Mårten Sundberg; Peter Nilsson; Jochen Schwenk; Anders Isaksson; Afshin Ahmadian; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microarray; protein; antibody; antigen; affinity; validation;

    Abstract : Is specificity an important issue regarding affinity reagents? What about the validation of affinity reagents today, is it good enough? This depends on the application and the producer of the reagent. Validation should be the most important marketing argument that can be found. READ MORE
