Antigen arrays are fabricated using various antigens such as DNA, histones, synthetic peptides, recombinant proteins, or cell extracts to detect autoantibodies in autoimmune diseases, alloantibodies in transplantation, drug-induced antibodies or cancer-induced antibodies in blood or cell culture supernatant. In this protocol, we will provide a step-by-step executable procedure to perform antigen arrays, including antigen preparation and printing, blocking, sample loading, array detection, imaging, and data analysis.
抗原阵列是利用各种抗原构建的,如DNA、组蛋白、合成肽、重组蛋白或细胞提取物,用于检测自身免疫性疾病中的自身抗体、移植中的同种抗体、血液或细胞培养上清液中的药物诱导抗体或癌症诱导抗体。在本方案中,我们将提供一个执行抗原阵列的逐步可操作程序,包括抗原制备与打印、封闭、样品加载、阵列检测、成像和数据分析。
