美國(guó)SomaLogic www.somalogic.comSomaLogic的aptamer技術(shù)是基于核酸與特定蛋白質(zhì)結(jié)合，使其具有高度的選擇性和專(zhuān)一性。按照一定排列順序裝配后，該技術(shù)可同時(shí)在生物液體樣品中測(cè)出數(shù)百甚至上千種蛋白質(zhì)，其中的一些蛋白質(zhì)可能與某些疾病相關(guān)。Aptamer序列與特定疾病蛋白質(zhì)相關(guān)聯(lián)的作用被認(rèn)為將在疾病的診斷和治療方面起到顯著作用。SomaLogicisdeveloping next-generationmedicaldiagnosticsbasedonproteinsignatures—uniquepatternsthatcanbeanalyzedusingsimplebloodtestsandthatcandistinguishbetweendiseaseandhealthwithunprecedentedaccuracy.Proteinsarecriticalforthenormalfunctioningofthehumanbody.Theyprovidestructure,transmitandreceiveinformation,andcarryoutimportantchemicalreactions.Inpersonswithadisease,manyproteinsmaybeaffected.Comparedtonormalhealth,someproteinsmaybecomeoverlyabundant,whileothersmaybecomescarce.Bymeasuringtheseproteins—orbiomarkers—SomaLogicisdiscoveringnewinsightsintodiseaseandhealth.Bycombiningbiomarkersintopatternsordiseasesignatures,SomaLogicisbringing
