New technologies for autoimmune disease monitoring

Proteomics technologies for the study of autoimmune disease.

Autoimmune disease affects 3% of the US population, and likely a similar percentage of the population of the industrialized world (1). Although remarkable progress toward understanding immune function has been made over the last 4 decades in terms of the role of the major histocompatibility complex and the nature of lymphocyte antigen receptors that confer specificity to autoimmune responses, u...

New and emerging technologies for the diagnosis and monitoring of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

There is a need for straightforward, novel diagnostic and monitoring technologies to enable the early diagnosis of COPD and its differentiation from other respiratory diseases, to establish the cause of acute exacerbations and to monitor disease progression. We sought to establish whether technologies already in development could potentially address these needs. A systematic horizon scanning re...
