nCounter® Neuropathology Panel
Helping Your Research
Biomarker discovery and signature development are essential for identification of novel therapies and for earlier detection and development of therapies for neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), Parkinson’s Disease (PD), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The nCounter Neuropathology Panel helps perform comprehensive multiplex gene expression analysis in human or mouse samples with genes involved in six fundamental themes of neurodegeneration: neurotransmission, neuron-glia interaction, neuroplasticity, cell structure integrity, neuroinflammation, and metabolism.
- Developed for research of Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Frontotemporal Dementia, Huntington’s Disease, and other neurological disorders
- Includes unique cell typing feature for measuring the abundance of five important CNS cell types, including neurons, astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, and endothelial cells

Product Information
Genes included in the Neuropathology Panels provide unique cell profiling data for measuring the abundance1 of five important cell types including neurons, astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, and endothelial cells. The table below summarizes each cell type represented in the panels along with the gene content qualified through current literature references.
