Multiplexed multitarget screening method

摘要

The present disclosure provides systems for multiplexed multitarget screening of cell populations having one or more wild type or mutated ligand targets and measuring cell responses to ligands using high throughput screening techniques, including flow cytometry (FCM). The method includes the steps of: 1) developing cell populations to be screened; 2) staining cell populations using one or more fluorochromes to yield a distinct excitation/emission signature for each cell population; 3) combining labelled cell populations into a single mixed suspension; 4) analyzing populations to resolve them on the basis of their unique signature; and 5) resolving individual populations and deconvoluting data to extract meaningful information about populations.
