A peptide filtering relation quantifies MHC class I peptide optimization [PDF]

, 2011
Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class I molecules enable cytotoxic T lymphocytes to destroy virus-infected or cancerous cells, thereby preventing disease progression. MHC class I molecules provide a snapshot of the contents of a cell by binding to

Quantification of Phosphorylated Tau Protein in Alzheimer's Disease Patients’ Fluids With Electrolyte‐Gated Organic Transistor Biosensors

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Dementia syndrome affects millions of people in the world, and Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause. We report the detection of the specific biomarker for AD, p‐tau‐181, from physiological to pathological concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid using an electrolyte‐gated organic transistor biosensor.
