Indigo Biosciences, Inc: Revolutionizing the Field of Nuclear Receptor Assays and In Vitro Toxicology
Indigo Biosciences, Inc is a leading company in the field of nuclear receptor assays and in vitro toxicology. The company has been at the forefront of developing innovative solutions for drug discovery, environmental testing, and chemical safety assessment. With its cutting-edge technology and expertise in molecular biology, Indigo Biosciences has become a trusted partner for pharmaceutical companies, academic institutions, government agencies, and research organizations worldwide.
Founded in 2005 by Dr. Jack Vanden Heuvel and Dr. John Katzenellenbogen, Indigo Biosciences has grown to become a global leader in nuclear receptor research. The company's mission is to provide high-quality products and services that enable researchers to better understand the complex mechanisms of gene regulation by nuclear receptors.
Nuclear receptors are a class of proteins that play critical roles in regulating gene expression. They are involved in many physiological processes such as metabolism, development, reproduction, immune response, and cancer progression. Dysregulation of nuclear receptors can lead to various diseases including diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM), obesity-related disorders (e.g., non-alcoholic fatty liver disease), cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), neurodegenerative disorders (e.g., Alzheimer's disease), autoimmune diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis), and cancer.
Indigo Biosciences offers a wide range of nuclear receptor assay kits that allow researchers to measure the activity of specific receptors or their ligands using cell-based or biochemical methods. These assays are designed to be sensitive, reliable, reproducible, easy-to-use with minimal interference from other cellular components or environmental factors.
The company's flagship product line is called Nuclear Receptor Reporter Assay Systems™ which includes over 50 different assays covering all major classes of nuclear receptors such as estrogen receptor alpha/beta/gamma (ERα/β/γ), progesterone receptor (PR), glucocorticoid receptor (GR), mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors alpha/beta/delta/gamma (PPARα/β/δ/γ) , liver X receptor alpha/beta(LXRα/LXRβ) , retinoid X receptor alpha/beta/gamma(RXRα/RXRβ/RXRγ) , farnesoid X-activated receptor(FXRA) , aryl hydrocarbon receptor(AhR) etc.. These assays can be used for screening potential drug candidates for their ability to activate or inhibit specific nuclear receptors as well as studying their downstream effects on target genes or pathways.
In addition to its core business in nuclear receptor assays Indigo bioscience also provides services related with In vitro toxicology testing . This service includes cytotoxicity assay kits which allows researchers evaluate toxicity levels on cells exposed with different chemicals .
