News ArticlesA novel technology platform based on DNA nanoball arrays (Stereo-seq)In a publication in Cell, a novel spatiotemporal analytic package is described in which the gene expression can be studied at a subcellular level using a technology platform based on nanoballs distributed on an array with single cell resolution. The platform combines high spatial sensitivity with large field of view, and the publication reports its use to generate a spatially resolved transcriptomic atlas of mouse organogenesis. The study is an international collaboration with researchers from China, USA and Europe, including the Swedish universities KTH-Royal Institute of Technology and Karolinska Institutet at SciLifeLab in Stockholm...Read more The vagus nerve can regulate inflammationTwo closely associated nicotinic acetylcholine receptor genes are involved in increased inflammatory response in human peripheral mononuclear cells...Read more Next Generation Plasma Proteomics Identifies High-Precision Biomarker Candidates for Ovarian CancerOvarian cancer is the eighth most common cancer among women and has a 5-year survival of only 30-50%. The survival is close to 90% for patients in stage I but only 20% for patients in stage IV. The presently available biomarkers have insufficient sensitivity and specificity for early detection and there is an urgent need to identify novel biomarkers...Read more Cell transcriptomic atlas of the non-human primate Macaca fascicularisAn international collaboration describes a mind dazzling analysis of over a million single cells covering all major tissues of the primate macaque...Read more Plasma proteins elevated in severe asthmaPlasma proteins elevated in severe asthma despite oral steroid use and unrelated to Type-2 inflammation...Read more Upcoming EventsNext-Generation Protein Analysis and DetectionMay 30, 2022 - May 31, 2022Cecilia Lindskog will present "The Human Protein Atlas - spatial proteomics for single cell analysis"Jochen Schwenk will talk on the subject "Precision phenotyping with the circulating proteome" FEBS Practical and Lecture CourseSeptember 11, 2022 - September 16, 2022FEBS Practical and Lecture Course - A summer school aimed at graduate students, post-docs, and young independent investigators who want to learn about new techniques to explore the proteins encoded by the human genome.
