Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the preparation of citrullinated vimentin antigen-specific immune tolerogenic dendritic cells and a composition for preventing or treating heart failure after myocardial infarction comprising the same. According to the present disclosure, it is confirmed that immune tolerogenic dendritic cells differentiated by treating immature dendritic cells with citrullinated vimentin regulate the expression of immune-related factors and have an excellent therapeutic effect on heart failure caused by myocardial infarction.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of determining the subtype of a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patient through proteogenomic analysis of PDAC. The method of determining the subtype of pancreatic cancer according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises steps of: (1) pulverizing a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma lesion tissue isolated from a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patient; (2) obtaining a peptide sample for the patient by extracting and digesting proteins from the lesion tissue; (3) measuring the expression levels of representative genes of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma subtypes 1 to 6 from the peptide sample for the patient; and (4) determining the subtype of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patient by comparing the expression levels of the representative genes of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma subtypes 1 to 6.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a biomarker for diagnosing rheumatoid arthritis, a biomarker for diagnosing osteoporosis as a complication of rheumatoid arthritis, a biomarker for predicting the severity and prognosis of rheumatoid arthritis, and a use thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition and kit for rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis or activity evaluation, the composition and kit each including an agent for measuring the concentration of at least one protein selected from a group consisting of soluble CD14 (sCD14), a-1-acid glycoprotein 1 (AGP1), and a-1-acid glycoprotein 2 (AGP2). Further, the present invention relates to a use of the composition for diagnosing rheumatoid arthritis or evaluating activity.

Abstract: The present invention identifies a number of gene markers whose expression is altered in multiple sclerosis (MS). These markers can be used to diagnose or predict MS in subjects, and can be used in the monitoring of therapies. In addition, these genes identify therapeutic targets, the modification of which may prevent MS development or progression.

Abstract: Disclosed are a variety of methods and computer systems for use in the analysis of gene and protein expression data. Also disclosed are methods for the definition of the cellular state of cells and tissues from multidimensional physiological data such as those obtained from gene expression measurements with DNA microarrays. A variety of classification methods can be applied to expression data to achieve this goal. Demonstrated is the application of several statistical tools including Wilks' lambda ratio of within-group to total variance, Fisher Discriminant Analysis, and the misclassification error rate to the identification of discriminating genes and the overall classification of expression data. Examples from several different cases demonstrate the ability of the method to produce well-separated groups in the projection space representing distinct physiological states. The method can be augmented and is useful in disease diagnosis, drug screening and bioprocessing applications.
