20120021448 | METHOD FOR EVALUATING STATE OF CELLS - Provided are a novel marker of the state of cells and the differentiation level of the same which is usable as a substitute for a gene or a protein; a means for quantitatively understanding this marker; and a means for understanding the state of specific cells and the differentiation level of the same using this marker. A method for determining a sugar chain category to be used for evaluating the state of cells. The quantitative profile of N-linked sugar chains of cells before a change in the state thereof is obtained. Next, the quantitative profile of N-linked sugar chains contained in the cells after the change in the state thereof is obtained. Sugar chains showing variations in the contents thereof between these two quantitative profiles are extracted and the individual sugar chains contained in the extracted sugar chains are classified into the following categories based on sugar chain type: either the high-mannose type or the non-high-mannose type; (1) the presence/absence of a bisect; (2) the number fucose residues (0, 1, or 2 or more); (3) the presence/absence of sialic acid; and (4) the degree of branching (2 or 3 or more). From these five categories, a sugar chain category appropriate for evaluating the state of cells is determined. A method for evaluating the state of cells and the differentiation of cells using the thus determined sugar chain category. | 01-26-2012 |
