mRNA-Encoded Modulators Suppress Tumor Growth
Unlike conventional protein-targeted therapies, nucleic acid therapeutics have the potential for long-lasting effects and greater target specificity. WuXi AppTec provides a comprehensive platform to support the discovery of mRNA drugs. Our services include mRNA design and production, assessment of mRNA delivery systems, in vitro evaluation, and determination of in vivo efficacy and biodistribution. At AACR …Read More >
Rapamycin Ameliorates Renal Pathology in a Model of Passive Heymann Nephritis
Passive Heymann nephritis, induced by intravenous injection of anti-Fx1A in susceptible rat strains, is a complement-dependent model of glomerular disease that resembles membranous nephropathy in humans. At IMMUNOLOGY2024, WuXi AppTec presented a poster demonstrating that rapamycin exerts a protective effect against anti-Fx1A-induced passive Heymann nephritis by reducing proteinuria. The authors show that this antiproteinuric effect …Read More >
NK Cell Humanized Tumor Models
NK cells are effector innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) that do not require antigen-specific priming. NK cells are not only killer cells that help to suppress tumors, but also are involved in the generation and maintenance of adaptive immune responses. The process of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) makes use of innate immune cells which provide antitumor …Read More >

iMN041: Prodrug with a Unique Antitumor Immune Response
WuXi AppTec scientists contributed to a research article in the journal Translational Medicine Communications which characterized the antitumor immune responses generated by iMN041, a prodrug of a DNA methyl transferase/ribonucleotide reductase inhibitor. This study also assessed the efficacy of iMN041 in mouse xenografts of human clear cell renal cell cancer, pancreatic cancer, and triple negative …Read More >
One Stop Target-to-Hit Platform: STATs
STAT proteins are key mediators of cellular immunity, proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. STATs are known to play a role in the pathogenesis of many different diseases (including cancer) and the development of drugs directly or indirectly targeting STAT signaling has become a major focus for discovery teams. WuXi AppTec offers a comprehensive platform of biophysical …Read More >
