Liquid biopsy allows assessment of multiple analytes, providing temporal information with potential for improving understanding of cancer evolution and clinical management of patients. Although liquid biopsies are intensely investigated for prediction and response monitoring, preanalytic variables are of primary concern for clinical implementation, including categories of collection method and sam

High-throughput sequencing of adaptive immune receptor repertoires (AIRR, i.e., IG and TR) has revolutionized the ability to carry out large-scale experiments to study the adaptive immune response. Since the method was first introduced in 2009, AIRR sequencing (AIRR-Seq) has been applied to survey the immune state of individuals, identify antigen-specific or immune-state-associated signatures of i

Cell culture techniques are strongly connected with modern scientific laboratories and production facilities. Thus, choosing the most suitable medium for the cells involved is vital, not only directly to optimise cell viability but also indirectly to maximise the reliability of the experiments performed with the cells. Fetal bovine or calf serum (FBS or FCS, respectively) is the most commonly used

Fifth-generation (5G) new radio (NR) deployments are being rolled out in both the C–band (3.3 - 5.0 GHz) and millimeter-wave (mmWave) band (24.5 - 29.5 GHz). For outdoor scenarios, the C–band is expected to provide wide area coverage and throughput uniformity, whereas the mmWave band is expected to provide ultra-high throughput to dedicated areas within the C-band coverage. Due to the differences

The effects of genetic variation on molecular functions predisposing to type 2 diabetes are still largely unknown. Here, in a specifically designed diabetes model, we couple separate gene loci to mechanisms of P-cell pathology. Niddm1i is a major glucose-controlling 16-Mb region in the diabetic GK rat that causes defective insulin secretion and corresponds to loci in humans and mice associated wit

Isolation and characterization of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) present a noninvasive alternative to monitor disease progression in individual patients. However, the heterogeneous lineage specificity of CTCs makes it difficult to isolate and identify possible CTCs by a liquid biopsy. Better label-free methods for the isolation of viable CTCs are needed. Our solution is a combined approach that is

ZnO nanorods (NRs) with high surface area to volume ratio and biocompatibility is used as an efficient photosensitizer carrier system and at the same time providing intrinsic white light needed to achieve cancer cell necrosis. In this letter, ZnO nanorods used for the treatment of breast cancer cell (T47D) are presented. To adjust the sample for intracellular experiments, we have grown the ZnO nan

Learn more about the cell sorters and analysers available at the FACS Core Facility Sorters:   BD FACS Aria III The BD FACS Aria III has 5 laser lines: near UV at 375nm, violet at 405nm, blue at 488nm, yellow-green at 561 nm and red at 635nm. The violet and near UV are co-linear and cannot be used simultaneously. It can detect up to 16 colours and two scatter parameters. BD FACS ARIA III Documents

Background: Human fibroblasts can be directly converted to several subtypes of neurons, but cortical projection neurons have not been generated. Methods: Here we screened for transcription factor combinations that could potentially convert human fibroblasts to functional excitatory cortical neurons. The induced cortical (iCtx) cells were analyzed for cortical neuronal identity using immunocytochem

Immuno-oncological (I-O) treatment methods have revolutionized cancer therapy and tremendous clinical benefits are achieved in some cancer patients. However, today a limited number of I-O drug targets are used and only a fraction of all cancer patients has a therapeutic response. We need to further understand the immune system in cancer in order to develop novel treatment strategies and improve su

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous disease caused by sequential accumulation of mutations in the genome of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) or myeloid precursors, giving rise to formation of leukemia stem cells (LSC). More than 200 recurrent mutations have been described, although each patient will carry a small subset of these. The mutations are used as a basis for classificati
