  • Patent number: 10627414
    Abstract: A method for characterizing the risk a subject will develop an autoimmune and/or alloimmune disease following tissue transplant includes obtaining a biological sample from the subject, wherein the subject has received the tissue transplant determining in the biological sample a level of at least one protein selected from Tables 1-4, comparing the measured level of the at least one protein to a control value, and characterizing a subject as at greater risk of developing an autoimmune disease and/or alloimmune disease if the level of at least one protein determined is increased or decreased compared to the control value.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 7, 2017
    Date of Patent: April 21, 2020
    Assignee: CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY

  • Publication number: 20180106817
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of diagnosing a renal disorder. The method includes the steps of: (1) obtaining a biological sample from a subject; and (2) determining, in the biological sample, a level of one or more proteins whose abundance in urine change due to the renal disorder, wherein an increase or decrease in the level of one or more of the proteins compared to a control level is indicative of a renal disorder.

  • Publication number: 20140113829
    Abstract: Systems and methods of selecting combinatorial coordinately dysregulated biomarker subnetworks are provided. In one embodiment, a method comprises comparing the normalized gene expression data to a predetermined threshold to provide binary gene expression data associated with phenotype samples and control samples, analyzing subnetwork states of the binary gene expression data associated with phenotype samples and control samples to identify gene expression patterns that occur in phenotype samples and do not occur in control samples and identifying a subnetwork that provides gene expression patterns indicative of a sample being a phenotype sample.

  • Publication number: 20100046813
    Abstract: Systems and methods of analyzing two dimensional gels are provided, in one embodiment, a method is provided for analyzing a 2-dimensi?nal gel. The method comprises receiving a first image of a gel based on a first protein sample labeled with a first fluorophore, receiving a second image of the gel based on a second protein sample labeled with a second fluorophore, applying linear normalization to image intensity values of the second image to provide a linear normalized image, and comparing image intensity values of the linear normalized image from image intensity values of the first image to provide a compared image.
