A real-time impedance-based screening assay for drug-induced vascular leakage.
Vascular leakage is a serious side effect of therapies based on monoclonal antibodies or cytokines which may lead to life-threatening situations. With the steady increase of new drug development programs for large molecules, there is an urgent need for reliable tools to assess this potential liability of new medicines in a rapid and cost-effective manner. Using human umbilical vein endothelial ...
متن کاملHepatic organoids for microfluidic drug screening.
We introduce the microfluidic organoids for drug screening (MODS) platform, a digital microfluidic system that is capable of generating arrays of individually addressable, free-floating, three-dimensional hydrogel-based microtissues (or 'organoids'). Here, we focused on liver organoids, driven by the need for early-stage screening methods for hepatotoxicity that enable a "fail early, fail cheap...
متن کاملMicrofluidic Devices for Drug Delivery Systems and Drug Screening
Microfluidic devices present unique advantages for the development of efficient drug carrier particles, cell-free protein synthesis systems, and rapid techniques for direct drug screening. Compared to bulk methods, by efficiently controlling the geometries of the fabricated chip and the flow rates of multiphase fluids, microfluidic technology enables the generation of highly stable, uniform, mo...
متن کاملSpinning magnetic trap for automated microfluidic assay systems.
While sophisticated analyses have been performed using lab-on-chip devices, in most cases the sample preparation is still performed off chip. The global need for easy-to-use, disposable testing devices necessitates that sample processing is automated and that transport complexity between the processing and analytical components is minimal. We describe a complete sample manipulation unit for per...
متن کاملAssay for Drug Screening in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Fleming researchers have developed an actin-based cellular assay for drug discovery in treating Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). The assay uses primary synovial fibroblasts (SF) isolated from the joints of proprietary arthritic transgenic mice overexpressing human TNF. The assay accurately quantifies the intracellular level of F-actin using fluorescencently-labelled phalloidin. Reduced F-actin levels...
