Small Molecule Screening In Drosophila Cell

Drosophila cell lines have been widely used to study a variety of conserved biological processes including mitosis, insulin signal pathway, wound healing and drug discovery. It is particularly important to develop efficient and rapid analytical methods, as small molecule screening is an important tool for investigating disease therapeutic targets, drug resistance, drug toxicological responses, and mechanisms of conserved signaling pathways. We recommend that our clients begin researches with Drosophila cell line screening. Cell lines can be used as an early test and important complement to in vivo models, allowing for rapid narrowing of potential drug candidates and increased positive hit rates.

CD BioSciences as a biotech company in Drosophila field, offers a comprehensive (disease) cell line modeling and small molecule (or drug) screening service. Compared to in vivo models, our Drosophila cell cultures offer the advantages of low cost, rapidity, and ease of large-scale screening. We work closely with our clients to provide composite screening schemes and multiple cell phenotype data analysis. Our in-house database contains over 10,000 compound (natural products and synthetic compounds) data. Thereby, we are experts in assessing the ability of small molecules (drug) to inhibit, activate or modulate a target or biological process, to accelerate your screening efficiency and time.
