Autoantigen arrays for multiplex analysis of antibody isotypes PROTEOMICS Graham, K. L., Vaysberg, M., Kuo, A., Utz, P. J. 2006; 6 (21): 5720-5724

Abstract

We describe here a microarray-based method for multiplexed, antigen-specific assessment of immunoglobulin (Ig) subclasses. We used 1152-feature arrays composed of 140 antigens or antigen fragments to detect isotype-specific mAb, to quantitatively monitor changes in isotype mAb concentration, and to profile antigen-specific antibody isotype production in a murine model of autoimmunity. This platform can be easily adapted to a variety of applications, and has the potential to elucidate mechanisms that govern development and evolution of antibody responses in in vivo and in vitro systems.
