nCounter® Immune Exhaustion Panel
Helping Your Research
Uncover the mechanisms behind T cell, B cell, and NK cell exhaustion in diverse contexts, including cancer and infectious disease, with a 785 gene panel that gets you results in less than 24 hours and is compatible with a broad range of sample types. Characterize immune status, develop signatures for assessing the exhausted state, and identify novel therapeutic targets to prevent or reverse exhaustion.
How It Works
- Directly profile 785 genes across 47 pathways involved in immune exhaustion:
- Immune Activation
- Immune Suppression
- Immune Status
- Immune Checkpoints
- Epigenetics
- Metabolism & Microenvironment
- Understand the mechanisms of exhaustion in T cells, B cells, NK cells, CAR-T cells and other adoptive immune cells
- Discover novel therapeutic targets for preventing or reversing immune exhaustion
- Determine the extent of a peripherally suppressed, adaptive immune response to cancer with the 18-gene Tumor Inflammation Signature (TIS)
- Quantify the presence and relative abundance of 14 different immune cell types
Chronic infections caused by viruses and other pathogens can induce immune exhaustion. The Human Immune Exhaustion Panel includes probes for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and the Mouse Immune Exhaustion Panel includes probes for Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis (LCMV). The panel can be supplemented with up to 55 genes of your choice with a Panel Plus spike-in for studying exhaustion in the context of different types of infectious disease.
The 18-gene Tumor Inflammation Signature (TIS) is included in the panel gene list and measures activity known to be associated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Customers have the option to purchase a standalone TIS report with the Immune Exhaustion Panel.
- Includes four axes of biology that characterize a peripherally suppressed, adaptive immune response, including:
- Antigen presenting cells
- T cell/NK cell presence
- IFNγ biology
- T cell exhaustion
- Tissue-of-origin agnostic (Pan-Cancer)
- Potential surrogate for PD-L1 and mutational load in a research setting
Publications
A novel diagnostic approach for the classification of small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms based on the NanoString platform.
Small B-cell lymphoid neoplasms (SBCLNs) are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by malignant clonal proliferation of mature B-cells. However, the classification of SBCLNs remains a challenge, especially in cases where histopathological analysis is unavailable or those with atypical laboratory findings or equivocal pathologic data.
Remodeling of the tumor microenvironment via disrupting Blimp1(+) effector Treg activity augments response to anti-PD-1 blockade.
BACKGROUND: Accumulation of Foxp3(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells in the tumor often represents an important mechanism for cancer immune evasion and a critical barrier to anti-tumor immunity and immunotherapy. Many tumor-infiltrating Treg cells display an activated phenotype and express the transcription factor Blimp1.
Expression of CIB1 correlates with colorectal liver metastases but not with peritoneal carcinomatosis.
Background: Molecular differences in colorectal cancer (CRC) are associated with the metastatic route. Patient survival is mainly driven by metastatic spread thus it is imperative to understand its key drivers to develop biomarkers for risk stratification, follow-up protocols and personalized therapy.
Product Information
The nCounter Immune Exhaustion Panel enables researchers to explore the mechanisms behind T cell, B cell, and NK cell exhaustion in diverse contexts, including cancer and infectious disease.
The Immune Exhaustion Panel provides comprehensive coverage of the most relevant immune checkpoints that can potentially be used to modulate the dynamics of the immune response.
