Application of laser light on the development of equipment for the study of proteins

Abstract

The use of the laser technology in medicine has allowed us to expand the knowledge of the cell and its functions. In particular, flow cytometry is a sophisticated equipment, which can do a simultaneous multi-parametric analysis of the physical, and chemical properties of thousands of particles per second. Flow cytometry is routinely used in the diagnosis of health disorders, particularly blood cancers, but it has many other applications in basic research, clinical practice, and clinical trials. Given the extensive available information, flow cytometry was used to study the route by which transduce PKCζ leads the activation of GSK-3P, and the physiological significance of its accumulation in the nucleus.
