Webinar: Single-cell transcriptomics of PBMCs from COVID-19 patients using the BD Rhapsody™ platform
News & EventThe COVID-19 pandemic is an ongoing global challenge. It is a mild to moderate respiratory tract infection in most people but can cause life-threatening respiratory failure or persistent debilitating symptoms in a subset of patients.1 The mechanisms of protective immunity in mild cases and the pathogenesis of severe COVID-19 remain unclear. It has been proposed […]

Webinar: Single-cell profiling of human tumors and inflamed tissues reveals therapeutically targetable tumor-unique immune subsets
News & EventAbstract: The composition of the immune infiltrate in the human tumor microenvironment is a critical determinant of disease progression. Immunotherapies to treat cancer have achieved remarkable successes, but an inherent weakness of current treatment approaches is that the targeted immune subsets are not exclusive to tumors. In an effort to identify tumor-unique immune features that […]

CRISPR screens using targeted single-cell RNA sequencing
Scientific PublicationCell perturbation using the CRISPR technique Earlier on www.flowcytometry-news.com, we featured an article on the use of the BD Rhapsody™ system to perform highly scalable and more sensitive CRISPR screens. In cell perturbation using the CRISPR technique, single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) are used to guide the endonuclease Cas9 to create a targeted double-strand break, the […]

Webinar: Single-cell multi-omics identifies unstable regulatory T-cell profiles
The CytohubWebinar by Prof. Susan Schlenner, University of Leuven, Belgium Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are a subset of CD4+ T cells that possess immunosuppressive functions. They play a key role in human health as their malfunction results in allergies and auto-inflammatory disorders. Loss of regulatory T cells results in a rare autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome called IPEX, […]

Leveraging the power of high-parameter cell sorting and single-cell multi-omics to profile intra-tumoral immune cells in a model of B cell lymphoma
Scientific PublicationThe pathogenesis of B cell malignancies is a dynamic process The pathogenesis of B cell malignancies is a dynamic process involving reciprocal interactions between malignant cells and surrounding components in the tumour microenvironment. In the case of certain B cell lymphomas, neoplastic cells migrate to lymphoid sites and prompt the infiltration of non-malignant immune cells. […]
