Monocytes in metabolic disorders--opportunities for flow cytometry contributions.
Chronic inflammation has arised as a major underlying cause of atherosclerosis, obesity and diabetes. It is mediated by cells of innate immune system like macrophages but also by their antecedents, circulating monocytes. Roles of monocyte subsets and different markers of monocyte activation in the context of metabolic disorders have been reviewed. Applying cell based approach through flow cytom...
متن کاملMeasurement of Soluble Biomarkers by Flow Cytometry
Microparticle based flow cytometric assays for determination of the level of soluble biomarkers are widely used in several research applications and in some diagnostic setups. The major advantages of these multiplex systems are that they can measure a large number of analytes (up to 500) at the same time reducing assay time, costs and sample volume. Most of these assays are based on antigen-ant...
متن کاملMeasurement of Separase Proteolytic Activity in Single Living Cells by a Fluorogenic Flow Cytometry Assay
ESPL1/Separase, an endopeptidase, is required for centrosome duplication and separation of sister-chromatides in anaphase of mitosis. Overexpression and deregulated proteolytic activity of Separase as frequently observed in human cancers is associated with the occurrence of supernumerary centrosomes, chromosomal missegregation and aneuploidy. Recently, we have hypothesized that increased Separa...
متن کاملIncorporation of glucocerebrosidase into Gaucher's disease monocytes in vitro.
Several carriers were evaluated for use in the delivery of exogenous glucocerebrosidase to monocytes from Gaucher's disease patients. Only gamma globulin-coated, resealed erythrocytes proved to be an effective vehicle for enzyme delivery. Glucocerebrosidase added in this manner normalized intracellular enzyme levels for at least 18 hr. In this model system for the study of enzyme replacement th...
متن کاملMeasurement of radiation-induced damage in human glioma cells with flow cytometry.
Using flow cytometry, we studied DNA supercoiling changes in human glioma cell line SF-126 after irradiation. To release nucleoids (dehistonized DNA in a supercoiled form attached to the nuclear matrix), cells were lysed in a high-salt buffer. Radiation-induced changes in nucleoids were measured by flow cytometry as changes in forward light scatter. Propidium iodide titration curves showed that...
