Alzheimer's Disease In Vitro Model Service
Creative Bioarray offers development of custom designed in vitro models by using primary neuronal cultures, cell lines, iPS cells with genetic modifications, which are phenotypically closer to the adult neuronal network and mimic the development of AD. Our custom model services focus on but not restricted to AD induced by the accumulation and aggregation of Aβ. We also offer a wide range of assays that enable more accurate prediction of patient response to pharmacotherapy:
- Aβ induced neurotoxicity assay
- Amyloid β (Aβ) peptide aggregation inhibition assay
- Aβ peptide formation or screening for secretase inhibitors
- APP Processing Assay
- Beta secretase inhibitors
- Gamma secretase inhibitors
- Inhibitors of Aβ peptide formation
- Tau hyperphosphorylation assay
- Tau aggregation assay
- Neurite outgrowth assay
We provide this powerful and versatile tool for AD therapy as well as basic research to help our customers understand more about the underlying mechanisms in the progression of AD.
Study Example
Figure 1 Neurite outgrowth is inhibited by (intracellular) amyloid and tau treatment, and rescued by β-secretase inhibitor and methylene blue respectively.
