Article | Selective elimination of immunosuppressive T cells in patients with multiple myeloma

| Feb 2021 | Scientists at Heidelberg University Hospital used our scioCD  platform to profile CD8+SLAMF7+ cell cultures:

"High throughput screening of 351 different cytokines and immune proteins in the supernatants of the T cells cultures revealed strong upregulation of IL-6, IL-8, both vital survival factors for myeloma cells, and CXCL5, a chemokine that could enhance the frequency of CD4 Treg, in the cultures containing CD8+SLAMF7+ cells. IL-2 and IL-5 were upregulated in the control cultures without CD8+SLAMF7+ T cells, highlighting a more activated state in the control group and suggestion IL-6 and IL-8 as potential effector cytokines for the suppressive CD8+SLAMF7+ T cells."

Article | Lactate-driven immune hotspots resolved via SLC5A12 blockade

| August 2025 | Lactate signaling induces cytokine production and T/B cell clustering in Sjögren’s disease, and SLC5A12 blockade reverses these effects. Sciomics contributed to this study by comparing protein abundance and acetylation levels of murine cells using the scioDiscover protein profiling platform.

"From the very beginning, working with the friendly and highly competent team at Sciomics was both professional and refreshingly straightforward. We particularly valued their openness to our specific research questions and the expert support they provided in planning and interpreting our exploratory cytokine analysis in a preclinical lung injury model. Communication was always on equal footing, enriched by Sciomics’ deep expertise, which also sparked new ideas for future projects."

"We collaborated with Sciomics GmbH in Germany to analyze proteomics data from blood samples of kidney transplant recipients and liver perfusates during normothermic machine perfusion. Throughout the process, Sciomics provided exceptional support, ensuring timely data delivery and valuable assistance with data analysis. Their expertise and commitment have been instrumental in advancing our research, and we are currently using their data in multiple manuscript submissions. I highly recommend Sciomics for their reliable service and expertise in proteomics."
