  • Analysis of ex vivo cells for disease state detection and therapeutic agent selection and monitoring
    Patent number: 9678105
    Abstract: Described herein is the analysis of nanomechanical characteristics of cells. In particular, changes in certain local nanomechanical characteristics of ex vivo human cells can correlate with presence of a human disease, such as cancer, as well as a particular stage of progression of the disease. Also, for human patients that are administered with a therapeutic agent, changes in local nanomechanical characteristics of ex vivo cells collected from the patients can correlate with effectiveness of the therapeutic agent in terms of impeding or reversing progression of the disease. By exploiting this correlation, systems and related methods can be advantageously implemented for disease state detection and therapeutic agent selection and monitoring.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 3, 2014
    Date of Patent: June 13, 2017
    Assignee: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA
    Inventors: James K. Gimzewski, Sarah E. Cross, Yusheng Jin, Jianyu Rao
