Introduction Nucleic acid therapies can regulate the expression level or activity of disease-related targets at the genetic level, offering advantages such as a wide target range, programmability, and rapid iteration.  However, the wide application of nucleic acid drugs still faces many challenges, including delivery efficiency and off-target effects. To address these challenges, the Oncology-Immunology team …Read More >

Cell migration, invasion, and adhesion are pivotal steps in cancer metastasis.  To support research in this field, WuXi AppTec offers in vitro transwell migration and invasion assays using multiple cell types for assessing cell migratory behavior.  In addition, our in vivo metastasis panel includes a broad range of brain, bone, and liver xenograft models covering …Read More >

Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are emerging as a promising therapeutic approach for treating cancer. OVs are capable of both tumor-specific cell lysis and immune stimulation and can be optimized for enhanced tumor selectivity.  WuXi AppTec offers a comprehensive platform of OV-related services, including virus engineering and validation, immune profiling and lysis assays, tumor cell selectivity assays, …Read More >

WuXi AppTec offers a full range of services to characterize bispecific antibodies and bispecific T cell engagers (BiTEs).  Our comprehensive platform includes cell line selection and target expression, assessment of binding affinity (SPR, flow cytometry), in vitro activity testing (T cell activation, cytokine release, cytotoxicity), and evaluation of in vivo efficacy (using HSC and PBMC …Read More >

We have established an enzalutamide-resistant (LNCaP AR-F877L mutation) KI prostate cancer model to support the development of next-generation therapeutics.  An LNCaP AR-F877L KI cell line was shown to be resistant to enzalutamide, and in vivo animal validation studies demonstrated that enzalutamide was not efficacious to prevent tumor growth using this drug-resistant model. Check out our …Read More >

DLL3 related lung cancer PDX models, validated by RNA-Seq and IHC staining

c-Met is a receptor tyrosine kinase, a/k/a hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR). As a type of proto-oncogene, c-Met overexpression, amplification or gene mutation can promote the development of multiple cancer types, including gastric, liver, lung, breast, pancreatic cancer, and glioblastoma (through the stimulation of multiple signaling pathways).  As a result, c-Met is considered a clinically …Read More >
