Cell-based Assays
(a) Immune checkpoint assay: Immune checkpoints represent a group of extracellular membrane-bound proteins expressed on immune effector cells (e.g. T/B cells, NK cells), either inhibiting or stimulating effector cell proliferation. They are involved in eliminating foreign pathogens while maintaining self-tolerance, playing a crucial role in immunomodulation. Nowadays, production of therapeutic antibodies designed to block or activate immune checkpoints has become a new powerful approach for the treatment of cancer and other diseases.
To meet the growing demand of drug discovery on immune checkpoint targets, We constantly explore new technologies for cell-based reporter bioassays with high specificity, sensitivity and reproducibility. The bioassays are complied with ICH guidelines with outstanding performance in antibody screening, characterization, potency testing and stability studies.
Co-stimulatory Immune Checkpoint Bioassay
Mechanism of action: anti-GITR, anti-4-1BB, anti-OX40 and anti-CD40 antibodies function to mimic the ligand.
Inhibitory Immune Checkpoint Bioassay
Mechanism of action: anti-CTLA-4, anti-TIGIT, anti-PD1, anti-PDL1 and anti-LAG3 antibodies block CTLA-4, TIGIT, PD1, PDL1 and MHC I/II respectively to activate the downstream production of reporter enzyme.
Key Features:
1. Assay targets: PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA-4, OX-40, CD-40, GITR, 4-1BB, TIGIT, and LAG3
2. Fast turn-around time and robust performance
3. Stringent documentation management, supporting preclinical development
(b) ADCC/CDC/ADCP assay: Antibody therapy has been proven to be highly powerful for cancer treatment. Two important mechanisms used by antibody drugs to kill targeted tumor cells are Antibody-Dependent Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity (ADCC), and Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC). We are pleased to present to you both a PBMC-based ADCC assay and natural kill cell-based ADCC assay. The readout is endpoint-driven (target cell lysis). The CDC assay uses normal human serum as the source of complement. By implementing strict QC standards, providing the assurance of the efficacy and potency profiles of your therapeutic antibodies.

CDC Mechanism
(c) Apoptosis, proliferation, and phagocytosis assay: Oncology drug discovery requires knowing the pharmacological mechanism, and efficacy of small molecules on human tumor cell lines. We offer a comprehensive oncology drug discovery platform which includes antibody drug discovery, in vitro and in vivo pharmacology services.
Key Features:
1. High quality assay criteria and short turnaround time
2. OncoProfiler includes 200 human tumor cell lines.
3. High throughput screening (HTS) options available
(d) Neutralization assay
(e) Assay cell line development: Recombinant stable cell lines are one of the widely used tools in drug discovery, toxicity testing, and basic research. Long-term stable expression of a gene of interest (GOI) is usually achieved by transfection or viral transduction of a vector containing the expression cassette of the GOI together with a selection marker (antibiotics or fluorescent proteins). In contrast to transient expression, stable cell line offers reproducible results for assay studies.
