摘要:
A device, system, and method for detecting or separating target molecules allowing efficient detection even when only a small amount of target molecules or target cells are included in a sample involving the use of a target molecule linkage portion, a signal production portion, and first and second separation portions.
摘要:
A method of detecting a cancer stem cell or circulating tumor cell that has undergone epithelial-mesenchymal transition, comprising determining the level of caveolin-1 expressed by a sample cell, and comparing the level of caveolin-1 expressed by the sample cell to a control, wherein higher expression of caveolin-1 by the sample cell indicates that the sample cell is a cancer cell, as well as a method of detecting cancer or metastasis in a subject, and related methods and compositions.
摘要:
A cell counter system includes an inlet via which a fluid containing a plurality of cells inflows; a channel in which the fluid flows; a valve unit, which controls flow of the fluid in the channel; an electrode unit, which is arranged in the channel for measuring impedance for counting a number of the plurality of cells; and an outlet, which is connected to the channel to drain the fluid.

摘要:
The present invention relates to TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein, more precisely to TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein acting as a double-antagonist to TNF-α and TWEAK, known as major causes of autoimmune arthritis which is one of autoimmune diseases. When the composition comprising TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein was treated to Th17 cells, the secretion of the inflammatory cytokine IL-17 was reduced but the secretion of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 generated in Treg cells was increased. Such effect of TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein was far greater than that of a single protein such as TNFR2-Fc or TWEAK-Fc. The TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein of the present invention has not only excellent treatment effect on arthritis in CIA mouse model not also excellent treatment effect on autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis by increasing the expression of Treg, the immune suppressive cells. Therefore, the TNFR2-TWEAKR fusion protein of the present invention can be effectively used as an active ingredient for the composition for the prevention and treatment of autoimmune disease.
