A Universal Nanoparticle Cell Secretion Capture Assay? Read about it in the February 2013 Cytometry Part A


Secreted proteins play an important role in intercellular interactions. As outlined in their article, "A Universal Nanoparticle Cell Secretion Capture Assay," Wendy Fitzgerald and Jean-Charles Grivel have developed a universal assay that allows a simple non-invasive identification and isolation of cells based on their secretion of various products.

Their method is based on the targeting, to the cell surface, of heterofunctional nonoparticles coupled to a cell-surface specific antibody and to a secreted-protein-specific antibody, which captures the secreted protein on the surface of the secreting cell.  This method allows virtually limitless flexibility and furthermore does not compromise cell viability allowing culture and expansion of the secreting cells

This article can be found in the February 2013 Cytometry Part A journal in pages 205 - 211, or online at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cyto.a.22167/full

ISAC members receive the journal Cytometry Part A as a benefit of their ISAC membership.  If you would like to become a member of ISAC, you can join online.
