T cell assays have a variety of applications for studying the immunogenicity of proteins or peptide in vitro –
from measuring proliferation as a result of clonal expansion, to assessing the presence of memory cells. These
assays have facilitated therapeutics and diagnostics research for a variety of diseases such as:
Cancer research: peptide libraries have facilitated identification of potential cancer
immunotherapies
Infectious diseases: epitope screening has accelerated the development of targeted therapeutics
HIV: development of experimental vaccines for the treatment of diseases that target the immune system
Peptide libraries can simplify the development and optimization of T cell assays by providing multiple
combinations of epitopes. To help you design your library, GenScript also provides a variety of online peptide library design tools to take the guesswork out
of peptide library planning.
