Physioxia or Hypoxia: what it's all about
Cell culture under oxygen controlled conditions: an improvement towards more predictive results
Oxygen concentration in tissues is a key factor for cell and organ survival. In normal conditions, partial
Predicting CYP induction in stable cell lines
Assessing gene transcription as an endpoint for determining induction of drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters has become the “method of choice” in the FDA’s latest draft Guidance for Industry drug
Hepatic Cellular Models
A wide range of in vitro models are used in preclinical drug testing for the investigation of ADME-Tox (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion and oxicity) properties of New Chemical Entities
Discovery of new biomarkers... 3 tips regarding controls
One of the recurrent questions that we get at the Biomarkers team at tebu-bio is on what controls should be included in a given experiment. Either if the experiment is done by researchers in their lab,
How sample preparation can affect your biomarker studies (I)
In previous posts, we have discussed about whether samples should be pooled, how much (and if) they should be diluted, and how biologicals can affect the final results...and the biomarkers that you find.
Rat liver tritosomes in the endosome-lysosome pathway
Rat liver tritosomes are hepatic lysosomes that have been loaded with Tyloxapol (Triton WR 1339), a non-ionic surfactant. Tyloxapol is taken up by hepatocytes through endocytosis and is trafficked to lysosomal
Sekisui XenoTech Awarded Cryopreservation Patent for Cryostax single freeze hepatocytes
Sekisui XenoTech has just been issued U.S. Patent No. 9,642,355 for the “cryopreservation of cells and subcellular fractions,” specifically related to Sekisui XenoTech’s CryostaX® test systems. This hepatocyte
ADME-Tox: liver fractions with High Aldehyde Oxidase and Xanthine Oxidase Activity
Sekisui XenoTech has just established a method for high Aldehyde Oxidase and Xanthine Oxidase activity in pooled Human liver test systems.
These new test systems (Pooled Human Liver S9 and cytosol) have
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
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
New CryostaX® Rodent Hepatocytes - largest pools available, easy-to-use pellet format
Sekisui XenoTech have announced the addition of Rodent Hepatocytes to their patented CryostaX® product line.
The CryostaX® in vitro drug discovery and preclinical drug development test system is continuously
