Stochastic Measurement Models for Quantifying Lymphocyte Responses Using Flow Cytometry
Adaptive immune responses are complex dynamic processes whereby B and T cells undergo division and differentiation triggered by pathogenic stimuli. Deregulation of the response can lead to severe consequences for the host organism ranging from immune deficiencies to autoimmunity. Tracking cell division and differentiation by flow cytometry using fluorescent probes is a major method for measurin...
متن کاملQuantifying autophagosomes and autolysosomes in cells using imaging flow cytometry.
Autophagy dysregulation has been implicated in numerous diseases and many therapeutic agents are known to modulate this pathway. Therefore, the ability to accurately monitor autophagy is critical to understanding its role in the pathogenesis and treatment of many diseases. Recently an imaging flow cytometry method measuring colocalization of microtubule associated protein 1B light chain 3 (LC3)...
متن کاملAssessment of lymphocyte-mediated cytotoxicity using flow cytometry.
Cytotoxic lymphocytes, including cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer (NK) cells, kill target cells by releasing granules containing perforin and granzymes, and/or via Fas-Fas ligand interactions. Both pathways lead to prompt activation within target cells of caspase cascades responsible for apoptosis induction and cell death. We have utilized cell-permeable fluorogenic caspase sub...
متن کاملStochastic Models for Pricing Weather Derivatives using Constant Risk Premium
‎Pricing weather derivatives is becoming increasingly useful‎, ‎especially in developing economies‎. ‎We describe a statistical model based approach for pricing weather derivatives by modeling and forecasting daily average temperatures data which exhibits long-range dependence‎. ‎We pre-process the temperature data by filtering for seasonality and volatility an...
متن کاملMeasurement of T Cell Alloreactivity Using Imaging Flow Cytometry
The measurement of immunological reactivity to donor antigens in transplant recipients is likely to be crucial for the successful reduction or withdrawal of immunosuppression. The mixed leukocyte reaction (MLR), limiting dilution assays, and trans-vivo delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) assay have all been applied to this question, but these methods have limited predictive ability and/or signi...
