Type 1 Diabetes Biomarkers
Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is one of the most common juvenile autoimmune diseases and is characterized by progressive destruction of pancreatic ß-cells. By the time of T1D diagnosis, around 70-90% of pancreatic ß-cells are already dead. T1D patients face many potential health complications and co-morbidities which lead to both personal and societal...

­AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKERS FOR LIPODYSTROPHY
­AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKERS FOR LIPODYSTROPHY Researchers at UCSF and the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub have developed methods to identify a subject that is at risk of developing autoimmune-related lipodystrophy. Lipodystrophy is a clinical phenotype defined by a reduction in subcutaneous fat or adipose tissue. Excessive fat loss can lead to an imbalance...

Biomarkers for Diagnosis of Lung Cancer
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, with more than 150,000 deaths in 2014. While the increased use of CT screening for lung cancer has resulted in a reduction in lung cancer mortality, it has also resulted in an increased detection of benign pulmonary nodules. Patients often undergo unnecessary, costly and invasive...

AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKERS FOR AUTOIMMUNE POLYGLANDULAR SYNDROME TYPE 1
AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKERS FOR AUTOIMMUNE POLYGLANDULAR SYNDROME TYPE 1 Researchers at UCSF and the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub have identified multiple common autoantibody targets in APS1 patients through proteome-wide programmable phage-display. The identification of autoantigens remains a critical challenge for understanding and treating autoimmune...

Biomarkers for Early Detection of Serous Ovarian Cancer
Ovarian cancer is one of the most common cancers among women, with over 21,000 new cases and over 14,000 deaths per year. If detected early, the 5-year survival rate is over 80%, but that drops to just 11% if detected at stage IV, and over 60% of patients are diagnosed with advanced disease. Early detection is hampered by limitations in current biomarkers,...

AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKER OF PARANEOPLASTIC  ENCEPHALITIS ASSOCIATED WITH TESTICULAR CANCER
AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKER OF PARANEOPLASTIC ENCEPHALITIS ASSOCIATED WITH TESTICULAR CANCER Researchers at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub, UCSF and the Mayo Clinic have discovered a novel biomarker for an autoimmune disease that affects patients with testicular cancer. The disease, known as “testicular cancer-associated paraneoplastic encephalitis,”...

Autoantibody Biomarkers for Crohn’s Disease
Crohn’s disease (CD), is an inflammatory bowel disease that affects about 3 out of 1,000 people in the U.S. It is currently not known what causes CD, but hereditary, environmental factors and a dysregulated immune system are thought to play a role. Diagnosis of CD is difficult and often involves expensive imaging and invasive biopsies. Current...

Identification of Biomarkers for Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects about 1% of the world population and is characterized by synovial inflammation and joint destruction. Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) have been detected specifically in RA patients and may provide utility in RA risk assessment and diagnosis. ACPA levels correlate with...
