Applications of TCR & BCR Repertoire Profiling: Insights into the Adaptive Immune Response in T-cell Lymphomas and more
Spotlight Theatre B, Tuesday, April 9 2024, 3:00-4:00 p.m.
Exhibit Hall, San Diego Convention Center

Introductory Remarks: Paul Diehl, PhD, COO, Cellecta

Speaker 1: Alex Chenchik, PhD, President & Chief Scientific Officer, Cellecta 
Title: TCR & BCR Repertoire Analysis and Other Approaches for the Discovery of Drug Targets, Resistance Mechanisms and Biomarkers

T-cell receptor (TCR) and B-cell receptor (BCR) repertoire profiling holds great potential for understanding disease mechanisms. We introduce a novel technology for profiling of all human TCR and BCR variable regions together with phenotypic characterization of immune cells in bulk in PBMCs and immune cell fractions. Preliminary data shows that TCR/BCR clonotype analysis combined with targeted expression profiling of immune cells can be applied for large-scale discovery in several immune-responsive model systems. 

 

Speaker 2: Utpal Davé, MD, Associate Professor of Medicine, Associate Professor of Microbiology and Immunology, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN.
Title: Dissecting the role of T-cell receptors in T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemias

The etiology of T-LGL (T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemias) and its accompanying autoimmune disease manifestations are mostly unknown. With the help of Cellecta’s sequencing technologies, we investigated the most abundant TCR clonotypes in a T-LGLL patient with severe neutropenia. Further analysis of the CDR3 region (VDJdb server) identified putative antigens recognized by the expanded clonotypes, allowing us to devise a model for the onset and development of T-LGL.
