Thursday: what insights can be provided in your topic through microscopy, and what is your section of research for the presentations
For my group's presentation, our question is "What is an alternative path to immunosurpresents to avoid chronic rejection in kidney transplant patients". My research and presenting pertains to the proposal and methods. Ironically, gene therapy is our last resort in trying to relieve kidney transfer patients of the fear of rejection. Below is some of the research I am using.
Mas spectrometry: use an electron beam to ionize the protein which will separate into amino acids which are in 3s, or codons, which is the RNA of it.
This can be used to create the complementary DNA sequence. Therefore, we can identify if the DNA for the MHC (major histocompatibility complex), which encodes the types of antigens that are located on the cell surface. If these match, the gene should be accepted.
If this does not work gene therapy comes into play
