Abstract #304114

This is the preliminary program for the 2005 Joint Statistical Meetings in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Currently included in this program is the "technical" program, schedule of invited, topic contributed, regular contributed and poster sessions; Continuing Education courses (August 7-10, 2005); and Committee and Business Meetings. This on-line program will be updated frequently to reflect the most current revisions.

To View the Program:
You may choose to view all activities of the program or just parts of it at any one time. All activities are arranged by date and time.



The views expressed here are those of the individual authors

Abstract:

Protein microarray technology holds a great potential for the identification and quantitation of protein changes in preclinical and clinical proteomics. Zyomyx Protein Profiling Biochip System is one of a few fully operational automated platforms of protein microarray technologies available to date. Zyomyx Biochips are available for profiling of human and murine cytokines (total 29 cytokines can be analyzed simultaneously). We have done experiments to validate this technology. Based on the data and the nature of the chip design, we have established protocols for normalization, including background correction, hybrid transformation, and quantitation. Data from the use of the technology to determine the minimum and maximum concentrations of cytokines that can be determined appropriately will be shown. This technology has been used to identify treatment-related changes in cytokines. In addition, examples such as the use of this technology to estimate IC50 for cytokines inhibited by the compounds will be shown.
