Title:
METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR DETECTING THE ACTIVATION STATE OF THE MULTIPLE PROTEINS IN SINGLE CELLS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003067210
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides methods and compositions for simultaneously detecting the activation state of a plurality of proteins in single cells using flow cytometry. The invention further provides methods and compositions of the screening for bioactive agents capable of coordinately modulating the activity of a plurality of proteins in single cells. The methods and compositions can be used to determine the protein activation profile of a cell for predicting or diagnosing a disease state, and for monitoring treatment of a disease state.
