antibodies

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs), a new class of treatment for cancer, are composed with a monoclonal antibody, a linker and a cytotoxic agent also referred to as a payload. To date, several ADCs have received market approval and more than 60 ADCs are currently in clinical trials. ADCs are one of the fastest growing classes of oncology drugs worldwide.

The payload or cytotoxic agent is the most important unit in the ADC. ADC has the capability to kill cancer cell depending on the potency of the payload. MCE provides 92 highly potent cytotoxins that contain auristatin derivatives, maytansinoids, calicheamicin, duocarmycin, pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBDs), etc.

Antibody inhibitors are compounds with the same activity as the original therapeutic antibodies, which can be used as positive controls for drug efficacy evaluation and other studies. Antibody inhibitors can also assist in verifying the functional activity of the target protein. These antibody inhibitors are active in vivo and can achieve certain physiological functions by blocking or neutralizing target proteins, such as CD20, HER2, EGFR, VEGFR, TNF-α, etc. In drug screening, antibody inhibitor-based screening can be carried out to identify active compounds targeting target proteins and target diseases.

MCE can provide 21 antibody inhibitors that can be used for drug development in cancer, immunity, infection and other hot research areas.

Targeted cancer therapies are drugs or other substances that block the growth and spread of cancer by interfering with specific molecular targets that are involved in the growth, progression, and spread of cancer.

There are several different types of targeted therapy. The most common types are small-molecule drugs and monoclonal antibodies. Small-molecule drugs are small enough to enter cells easily, so they are used for targets that are inside cells, while monoclonal antibodies are usually used for targets that are located outside the cells. Because of high specificity, low side effect and potent anticancer activity, targeted therapy has become the mainstream of new anti-tumor drugs. Various targeted therapies have been approved by FDA and used in the treatment of diseases.

MCE carefully collects a unique of 107 targeted therapy drugs used in cancer treatment. MCE Targeted therapy drug library is a useful tool for the research of targeted therapy.

Immuno-Oncology is a type of immunotherapy that has the specific purpose of treating cancer. It works by stimulating our immune system to fight back. Normally, our immune system is able to destroy cancer cells in our body, however sometimes cancer cells can adapt and mutate, effectively hiding from our immune system. This is when tumors can develop and become a threat to our health. Immuno-oncology involves mobilizing lymphocytes to recognize and eliminate cancer cells using the body’s immune system. There are several immuno-oncology treatments available, including Immune cell therapy (CAR-T), monoclonal antibodies (mABs) and checkpoint inhibitors, cytokines and cancer vaccines.

MCE Small Molecule Immuno-Oncology Compound Library offers 486 bioactive tumor immunology compounds that target some important checkpoints such as PD1/PD-L1, CXCR, Sting, IDO, TLR, etc. This library is a useful tool for Immuno-oncology research.

MCE Protein Transfection Reagent is a cationic lipid mixture for complexation with proteins, peptides, antibodies and other biologically active molecules to allow their direct intracellular delivery.

MCE PBS-T Powder (1 L of 1×) consists of NaCl, KCl, Phosphate and Tween 20, and is widely used in ELISA and Western Blot, and can also be used for antibody dilution and preparation of blocking solution.

MCE TBS Powder (1 L of 1×) consists of NaCl, KCl and Tris, and is widely used as washing buffer in immunocytochemistry, FISH or ELISA, and can also be used for antibody dilution and preparation of blocking solution.

MCE Rapid Blocking Buffer (TBS-T) Powder (100 mL of 1×) mainly consists of fish gelatin protein, and is widely used for the antibody blocking step in Western Blot or ELISA within 15 minutes.

MCE TBS-T Powder (1 L of 1×) consists of NaCl, KCl, Tris and Tween 20, and is widely used as washing buffer in immunocytochemistry, FISH or ELISA, and can also be used for antibody dilution and preparation of blocking solution.

MCE Streptavidin Agarose 6FF, a 6% highly cross-linked agarose reagent coupled with recombinant streptavidin, is an affinity chromatography medium for separation and purification of biotinylated peptides, antibodies, lectins, etc. The total binding capacity of Streptavidin Agarose 6FF is more than 200 nmol of D-Biotin/mL settled resin.
