As new technologies and innovative methodologies assist and speed traditional procedures, immunology research is changing and adapting. Researchers are increasingly turning to multiomic single cell and spatial characterization technology to delve deeper into the complex molecular and cellular networks and responses of the immune system, and to translate discoveries into actionable insights for the treatment of infectious diseases, autoimmune disorders, and cancer.
10x Genomics is continuing to explore novel uses for these technologies and advance discovery in key areas of immunology research, such as:
- Vaccines and Antibody Discovery: Scientists created an unbiased, high-throughput method for screening the antibody repertoire of single B cells in order to speed up antibody discovery.
- Infectious Illness: Scientists identified epithelial–immune cellular interaction, which could lead to macrophages and neutrophils being drawn to infection-prone areas.
- Immunology’s Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms: Scientists discovered two distinct stages of innate lymphoid cell formation, as well as the molecular mechanisms that control cell fate determination.
- Immuno-oncology: Researchers discovered that immune checkpoint blockade therapy led to the recruitment of enlarged CD8+T cell clones from beyond the tumour microenvironment.
