Cell-based assays with hPBMCs for cell therapy and drug discovery
Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (hPBMCs) are essential for designing cellular models to be used in cell therapy and drug discovery research programs [1-7, 12]. Being able to access reliable and
New Reporter cell lines for Drug discovery and Immunotherapy checkpoint research
In the last few decades, in the field of Drug Discovery, Immunotherapy has gained more and more importance for the treatment of various diseases and in particular for certain types of cancer. Based on
3 new types of Gastrointestinal (GI) Epithelial primary cells
Gastrointestinal (GI) primary cells represent a powerful approach for the in vitro study of the physiopathology of this unique tissue. Researchers have now identified intimate interactions between GI
Tips for primary cell culture
Functionality and viability of primary cells can be impaired by incorrect thawing procedures, storage or culture conditions. It's generally admitted that applying the same protocols as for cell lines
How can you improve your reporter gene assays?
Gene reporter assays are widely used in research and Drug Discovery. The development of such cell lines is often time-consuming and costly, sometimes upwards of 5-20k € per cell line. And once these cell
Immunotherapy research: Easily build your own reporter cell line
As discussed previously in our recent Drug Discovery post, Immunotherapy is one of the central research fields for various disease treatments and also certain cancers. A major regulator of immune homoeostasis
How to easily screen adenosine A2AR agonists and antagonists
Recently, BPS Bioscience have released a new Adenosine A2A Receptor (A2AR / ADORA2A) Functional Recombinant Cell Line for screening A2AR agonists and antagonists. An excellent means to efficiently evaluate
Subcellular fractions for ADME studies: broad custom capacities with strong expertise
Over the years, Sekisui XenoTech has built up a strong expertise in preparing subcellular fractions for ADME applications.
There is a list of the fractions readily available for prompt delivery across
Fatty Liver Disease Research: new Tissue Arrays and microsome pool
Sekisui XenoTech now offers human liver tissue microarrays (TMA) and a microsomal pool for studying and developing new treatments for fatty liver disease (FLD). The microsomes and arrays feature non-alcoholic
What to do with Microsome Stable, Low-Turnover Compounds
In a few forthcoming posts, I'd like to share several short articles published by Dr Chris Bohl of Sekisui Xenotech, a technical expert in the field of ADME-Tox tools and applications. I feel they may
