High-Plex IF + H&E Imaging of a 40-Patient Colorectal Cancer Cohort

This data set from the Harvard publication in Nature Cancer describes an approach for collecting and analyzing H&E and high-plex immunofluorescence (IF) images from the same cells in a whole-slide format. The study highlights Orion’s suitability for translational and clinical research and eventual deployment in diagnosis. Highly multiplexed tissue imaging, spatial statistics, and machine learning were used to identify cell types and states underlying morphological features of known diagnostic and prognostic significance in colorectal cancer.

How Can Multiplex Tissue Imaging Improve Research?

Multiplex tissue imaging has emerged as a transformative tool in biomedical research, offering significant advantages for investigating complex biological processes and disease mechanisms. This advanced imaging technique enables the simultaneous visualization of multiple molecular markers within a single tissue sample, providing researchers with a comprehensive and spatially resolved view of cellular interactions and protein expression patterns. Such capabilities have profound implications for improving research outcomes.

Highly multiplexed biomarker quantitation provides a detailed understanding of cellular heterogeneity within tissues, aiding in characterization of cell types and their functional states. This is valuable in cancer research where the tumor microenvironment is highly dynamic. Multiplex imaging facilitates identification of novel biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets by revealing intricate molecular networks.

High resolution, full slide imaging enhances our ability to study a range of therapeutic areas including immunology, immune-oncology, neuroscience, and infectious diseases. By providing a holistic view of tissue architecture and molecular events, it contributes to a deeper comprehension of disease pathogenesis and the development of more targeted and effective therapeutic strategies.

Orion multiplexed immunofluorescence imaging and quantitation represents a pivotal advancement in research methodologies, empowering investigators to glean richer insights into complex biological phenomena and ultimately improve human health.
