Kidney Transporter Models Capabilities
Working with us
Timely service
Our ethical and secure primary tissue supply chain enables us to run studies and produce products to meet customers important and demanding timelines. We process multiple primary tissue every month meaning order-to-data response times can fit with the most demanding of customer deadlines. Our kidney transporter models, sometimes known as renal transporter models, are designed to support drug discovery and drug transport. At Newcells, we offer kidney transporter models, proximal tubule cells and organic anion transporters (OATs) to our customers to help them in their studies of the kidney. Our kidney models can provide support with understanding chronic kidney disease modelling, kidney toxicity and drug transporter interactions.
Validation of kidney transporter models
Our kidney transporter models are well characterised and rigorously validated to ensure the generation of robust and comparable data predictive of in vivo renal physiology. Our clients also value our scientific expertise supporting the experimental design of our kidney transporters as well as the analysis and interpretation of data.
How we support our clients
By providing predictive data on drug transporter interactions in the kidney, we give our clients confidence in their key decision processes using our renal transporter models. Our service enables identification of cross-species differences in renal drug handling, identification of clinically relevant transporter-mediated Drug-Drug interactions and assessment of drug-induced kidney damage.
Our expertise with kidney transporter models
Our team have an in-depth knowledge of kidney physiology and chronic kidney disease, cell-based models and assay development. They have designed and completed hundreds of studies on novel compounds using the unique kidney transporter models and provided interpreted data sets to customers to advance candidates into the clinic. Working under a QMS environment, the data and reports have been used to support regulatory submissions.
