Fremont, CA, July 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alamar Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALMR), a leader in precision proteomics dedicated to advancing the early detection of disease, today announced the launch of the NULISAseq™ Immune 340 Panel, its broadest multiplexed immune profiling solution available for translational research and drug development. The panel expands on the NULISAseq Inflammation Panel 250, to deliver simultaneous measurement of approximately 340 immune-related proteins from a single sample. By measuring key proteins that were previously undetectable by other methods, the Immune 340 Panel deepens the understanding of the immune proteome in critical disease areas across cancer, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, autoimmune diseases, and aging research.

“The immune system holds some of the earliest and most informative signals of disease, yet much of that biology has been out of reach,” said Dr. Yuling Luo, founder, chief executive officer and chair of Alamar. “NULISAseq Immune 340 gives researchers an unprecedented view of immune activity. We believe that this view will accelerate biomarker discovery, strengthen the development of new therapies and diagnostics, and advance our mission of detecting disease earlier and helping people stay healthier for longer.”

Immune responses are never driven by a single protein. Pathway crosstalk, feedback loops, and cell type cooperation all demand multi-protein context to interpret. Understanding this biology, and catching it early, requires measuring the cytokines and other biomarkers of immune activation that signal disease before symptoms appear. The challenge is detection. Many immune mediators, including cytokines, chemokines, and cell death pathway markers, circulate at fg/mL to sub-pg/mL concentrations, well below the floor of conventional immunoassays. This is especially true of inflammaging, the chronic, low-grade inflammation that builds quietly with age as immune senescence and neuroimmune activation compound to drive cardiovascular, metabolic, neurodegenerative, and cancer risk. Its key signals have largely been invisible to researchers until now.

“In drug development, the ability to simultaneously profile the full immune landscape – not just the well-characterized cytokines, but the entire network of checkpoints, metabolic regulators, cell death mediators, and co-stimulatory signals – fundamentally changes what we can learn from a single sample,” said Bailin Zhang, PhD, head of exploratory biomarkers in the Translational Medicine Unit at Sanofi. “What makes the NULISAseq Immune 340 Panel distinctive is the combination of breadth and sensitivity. Many of the proteins most relevant to immune mechanisms of action, resistance, and toxicity have historically been undetectable in blood. Having access to them, alongside the canonical markers, in one multiplexed run opens new possibilities for biomarker discovery and patient stratification.”
