Definitely recommend its purchase. Versatile, easy to use, and maintain.
Identification and counting of iPSC's
Definitely recommend its purchase. The instrument was easy to use. The on-site training was informative. I wish a few training webinars had been provided on using the instrument prior to the on-site training. A lot of versatility is available for cell identification with the lasers and filters that can be installed. I think this instrument will be very useful for the research we are doing. Maintenance procedures are preprogrammed. Quality control sample lasts for a long period, simple to prepare and perform.

The customizable laser and optical configurations of the NovoCyte offer a high degree of flexibility while providing complex cell analysis capabilities.
The NovoExpress software facilitates easy and intuitive sample acquisition and analysis. Automation of multiple fluidic functions eliminates cumbersome and time-consuming procedures. Manual sample handling is minimized by the flexible NovoSampler Pro. The system can automatically analyze samples in single tubes, multi-tube racks, or 24-, 48-, or 96-well plates
Rewiring the metabolism of CAR-T cells
Join Professor Mercedes Rincon, University of Colorado Anschutz School of Medicine, as she discusses the groundbreaking advancements in adoptive T cell therapy, particularly chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. While CAR-T therapy has achieved impressive complete remission rates in 60–90% of patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r-B-ALL), challenges such as treatment failures and relapses remain significant obstacles.
Metabolism plays a critical role in T cell function, shaping immune responses. While glycolysis is essential for T cell expansion, it can restrict the self-renewal capacity of CAR-T cells during manufacturing. Mitochondrial respiration is vital for their survival and effectiveness. Recent findings have highlighted MCJ, a protein that negatively regulates mitochondrial function in CD8 cells. Loss of MCJ enhances mitochondrial respiration, cytokine secretion, and anti-tumor activity. Targeting MCJ to boost mitochondrial metabolism presents a promising strategy to enhance the efficacy of CAR-T cells and advance adoptive T cell therapies.
Key learning objectives
- Understand the current landscape of adoptive T-cell therapy
- Explain the role of metabolism in T cell function, highlighting the significance of glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration in enhancing CAR-T cell efficacy
- Identify the potential of MCJ as a therapeutic target to improve mitochondrial metabolism, cytokine secretion, and overall effectiveness of CAR-T cell therapies
Who should attend?
- Researchers and scientists specializing in CAR T-cell therapy, immunotherapy development, cell metabolism, glycolysis, and mitochondrial respiration.
