Autoimmune disease is a pathological disease characterized by inflammatory disorders targeting autoantigens. The routine treatment of autoimmune diseases suppresses general immune function to regulate uncontrolled inflammation. The current targeted immunotherapy suppresses the main pro-inflammatory signaling pathways by blocking inflammatory cytokines, cell surface molecules, and intracellular kinases. As key participants in innate immunity, macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial for Ag presentation and pro-inflammatory cytokine production, such as TNF and IL-1 β、 IL-6, IL-23, B cell activating factor (BAFF), and the proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL, also known as TNFSF13A).

MCE designs a unique collection of 966 autoimmune disease-related compounds, covering multiple targets and subtypes, such as TNF Receptor, IFNAR, JAK, Btk, TLR, IL-6, IL-17, IL-23, etc. It is a useful tool for screening autoimmune disease drugs.

Macrophages are effector cells of the innate immune system, engulfing bacteria and secreting pro-inflammatory and antibacterial mediators. They are an important component of the first line defense against pathogens and tumor cells. In addition, macrophages play an important role in eliminating damaged cells through programmed cell death. Like all immune cells, macrophages originate from pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow. Macrophages play key functions in many physiological processes beyond homeostasis and innate immunity, including metabolic function, cell debris clearance, tissue repair, and remodeling. In order to fulfill their different functional roles, macrophages can polarize into a series of phenotypes, including classic (pro inflammatory, M1) and alternative (anti-inflammatory, healing promoting, M2) activation states, as well as a wide range of regulatory phenotypes and subtypes. Macrophages exist in all vertebrate tissues and have a dual function in host protection and tissue damage, maintaining a good balance.

MCE designs a unique collection of 266 macrophage related compounds. It is a good tool to be used for research on Inflammation, cancer and other diseases.

Coagulation, also known as clotting, is the process in which blood changes from a liquid to a solid gel to form a blood clot. Thrombin, which is accurately and evenly generated in the injured part of blood vessels, is a key effector enzyme of the blood coagulation system and participates in many important biological processes, such as platelet activation, fibrinogen conversion to fibrin network, coagulation feedback amplification, etc. At the same time, to avoid the accidental formation of thrombus in the body, there is also an anticoagulant mechanism that inhibits blood coagulation.

Normal coagulation mechanism represents a balance between the pro-coagulant pathway in the injured site and anti-coagulant pathway beyond it. The blood coagulation system may be out of balance during the perioperative period or critical illness, which may lead to thrombosis or excessive bleeding. Therefore, the physiological study of coagulation balance is an important basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of the abnormal coagulation process.

MCE supplies a unique collection of 1,460 compounds targeting key proteins in coagulation and anti-coagulation system. MCE Coagulation and Anti-coagulation Compound Library is a useful tool for study the mechanism of coagulation and anticoagulation.

MCE YO-PRO-1/PI Apoptosis and Necrosis Detection Kit is a dual-fluorescence method based on the green fluorescent dye YO-PRO-1 (YP1) and the red fluorescent dye Propidium Iodide (PI) for detecting cell apoptosis and necrosis.

MCE Mouse Tissue Direct PCR Kit – Pro (with Dye) is specifically designed for direct PCR amplification from tissue samples. It enables rapid, one-step release of genomic DNA from various mouse tissues (such as tail, ear, toe, and muscle), which can be directly used for downstream PCR amplification and analysis without the need for conventional DNA extraction and purification steps, thereby significantly simplifying the experimental workflow.
