Benefits of live-cell analysis for stem cell workflows
May 1st, 2019
Censo Biotechnologies is a leader in the development of induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) and their differentiation into specific cell types for use in drug discovery. Censo provides a full spectrum of services to pharmaceutical companies, such as iPSC generation, genome editing, optimization of differentiation, and assay industrialization.

April 30th, 2019
Some of the challenges in understanding immuno-oncology (I-O) research and treating cancer using I-O therapies arise from the complex interactions between a patient’s immune system and the tumor’s biology. After all, tumors are populations of cells, and populations are subject to evolutionary forces.

In this article, we discuss several neurobiology-specific applications using live-cell analysis to assess such processes as basic iPSC-derived neuronal cell health, neurite dynamics, neuronal activity, and microglial phagocytosis and chemotaxis. These assays are noninvasive, nonperturbing, and cell sparing, thus providing a valuable complement to other end-point techniques.

As first responders against pathogens, the neutrophils migrate from the blood to the infected site to engulf and kill bacteria. In 2004, it was discovered that neutrophils can also kill microbes extracellularly by releasing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).

To develop and validate next generation immuno-oncology therapies researchers have a need to study the basic functions of tumor and immune cells in isolation and together. In vitro tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion assays enable the assessment of cancer cell growth and metastatic potential. Immune cell activation and chemotactic migration assays are used to study how the body mobilizes its forces against foreign cancer cells. Models of immune cell killing and tumor cell clearance are used to characterize therapeutic activity.
