Measure RNA Biomarkers with Spatial Context from Translational to Clinical Applications

Leverage the unrivaled sensitivity and specificity of RNAscope™ ISH technology for spatial visualization of biomarkers. RNAscope™ ISH enables measurement of RNA biomarkers with spatial context  from translational to clinical applications. The technology also overcomes antibody development challenges for neoantigens, TCR targets, homologous genes and can be used to qualify biomarkers for disease progression, patient stratification and clinical endpoints with high precision.

Key Features:

  • Validate and quantitate target candidates based on disease, region- and species-specific expression.
  • Screen biomarkers for tissue-specific gene expression with our high throughput assays.
  • Combine multiple cell-specific marker probes in heterogenous tissue microenvironments or signaling pathways.
  • Co-detect RNA and protein markers for multiomic analysis; compatible with latest automation solutions.
  • Measure therapeutic response by evaluating RNA markers as clinical endpoints.

Biomarker Expression Validation

 

Screen candidate targets and confirm presence on tissue(s) and species of interest. RNAscope single-plex assay was used to assess the expression of a gene that is involved in fatty acid production. Data demonstrated the comparison of target expression across multiple liver samples from both human and non-human primate tissues predicting cross species biological differences that can inform experimental design and even toxicology data interpretation at later stages.

Disease Validation

 

Validate candidate targets based on disease- and region-specific expression. Representative images from a normal and a Crohn’s disease tissue from our tissue bank. RNAscope technology can be used to identify changes in target expression patterns in the disease state or even across different stages of a disease. We offer access to tissues for multiple disease indications for our customers.
