Detect biomarkers associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
Detect biomarkers associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
Abstract
In this 1-hour discussion, learn how the SomaScan® Assay can be used to detect biomarkers associated with NAFLD—specifically, the identification of circulating proteins associated with fibrosis in NAFLD using a custom 5k-plex SomaScan Assay. Also discussed is the importance of identifying non-invasive biomarkers that improve clinical decision-making and drug development for NAFLD, and the strategies for multiplexed validation of candidate biomarkers discovered using the SomaScan Assay.

WebinarPathways to Digital Health: AI and Omics in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Explore how groundbreaking proteomic research is transforming our understanding of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In this on-demand webinar, Allan Stensballe, PhD, shares new insights into the molecular landscape of RA-affected synovial tissue, revealing how autoantibodies and protein signatures may hold the key to more precise personalized therapies.
WebinarUsing Antibody Profiling to Identify Novel Diagnostic Biomarkers
Current cancer screening methods often lead to false positives, false negatives and invasive biopsies that lack prognostic insights. Emerging research suggests that cancer-specific IgM and IgG antibodies – produced by B cells upon recognizing malignant cells – could serve as stable, easily measurable blood biomarkers for detecting and monitoring high-incidence cancers like melanoma and breast, prostate, bowel, lung and pancreatic cancer. This approach has the potential to improve early diagnosis, reduce uncertainty and enhance treatment planning.
WebinarLinking the plasma proteome to echocardiographic parameters in patients with chronic heart failure
Recent advancements in proteomic profiling have unlocked new possibilities for understanding the complex mechanisms that drive heart failure. Measuring thousands of proteins simultaneously makes it possible to capture a comprehensive overview of the patient's health state and investigate underlying disease progression at a subclinical level.
