iCAT: diagnostic assessment tool of immunological history using high-throughput T-cell receptor sequencing
2021-06-29
Abstract excerpt
The pathogen exposure history of an individual is recorded in their T-cell repertoire and can be accessed through the study of T-cell receptors (TCRs) if the tools to identify them were available. For each T-cell, the TCR loci undergoes genetic rearrangement that creates a unique DNA sequence. In theory these unique sequences can be used as biomarkers for tracking T-cell responses and cataloging immunological hist...
