In this GEN webinar, Erdinc Sezgin, PhD, Karolinska Institutet, will present how his lab profiled plasma membrane order across 12 immune cell subtypes simultaneously in healthy donors and patients with long COVID and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. He will also share how sorting NK cells by membrane order, combined with transcriptomics and the Proximity Network Assay (PNA) from Pixelgen Technologies, uncovered distinct subsets differing in cytotoxic potential, migratory capacity, and surface protein organization for biomedical applications.
Key takeaways include:
How plasma membrane order varies across immune cell types in chronic disease
Using biophysical membrane order to identify NK cell subsets that cannot be distinguished by surface markers alone
How spatial surface proteomics via PNA separates functionally distinct NK cell populations
How membrane order profiling can complement standard immunophenotyping workflows
