Immunology

The immune system is a host defense system comprising many biological structures and processes within an organism that protects against disease. To function properly, an immune system must detect a wide variety of agents, known as pathogens, from viruses to parasitic worms, and distinguish them from the organism's own healthy tissue. Inflammation is also the body's attempt at self-protection to remove harmful stimuli and begin the healing process. It’s part of the body's immune response. The immune system recognizes damaged cells, irritants, and pathogens, and inflammation begins the healing process. Inflammatory abnormalities are a large group of disorders that underlie a vast variety of human diseases. The immune system is often involved with inflammatory disorders, demonstrated in both allergic reactions and some myopathies, with many immune system disorders resulting in abnormal inflammation.

MCE designs a unique collection of 5006 compounds that are useful tool for Immunology/Inflammation research or autoimmune inflammatory diseases drug discovery.

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.

Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally and seriously threatens human health. A neoplasm and malignant tumor are other common names for cancer. Disruption of the normal regulation of cell-cycle progression and division lies at the heart of the events leading to cancer. Target therapy, which targets proteins that control how cancer cells grow, divide and spread, plays an important role in cancer treatment. Recent studies mainly focus on targeting the key proteins for cancer surviving, cancer stem cells, the tumor microenvironment, tumor immunology, etc.

MCE designs a unique collection of 7681 anti-cancer compounds that target kinases, cell cycle key components, tumorigenesis related signaling pathways, etc. MCE Anti-cancer compound library is a useful tool for anti-cancer drug screening.

New drug development is a time-consuming and high-cost process. Drug repurposing (also called drug repositioning, reprofiling or re‑tasking) offers various advantages over developing an entirely new drug for a given indication. First, the risk of failure is lower. Second, the time frame for drug development can be reduced. Third, less investment is needed. Approved and clinical drugs, especially after phase I drugs, have identified bioactivities, good pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety, which are suitable for drug repurposing.

MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library plus contains 5353 approved and passed phase I clinical drugs, which have been completed extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties.

MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library plus, with more powerful screening capability, further complement MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library (HY-L035) by adding some compounds with low solubility or stability (Part B) to this library. All those supplementary compounds are supplied in powder form.

MCE Drug Repurposing Compound Library contains 4595 approved drugs and passing phase Ⅰclinical drugs, which have been completed extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties.

Drug repurposing (also called drug repositioning, reprofiling, or re‑tasking) offers various advantages over developing an entirely new drug for a given indication, for example, lower risk of failure, less investment, and shorter development timelines. But drug repositioning projects are also subject to several risks, including regulatory and intellectual property issues. So the off-patent drugs are optimal for repositioning because of their immediate availability for clinical studies, with high feasibility and relatively low risk.

MCE carefully prepared a unique collection of 2550 off-patent drugs, which is a good choice for drug repurposing.

MCE EMA-Approved Drug Library consists of 674 EMA-approved drugs with high pharmacological diversity. All drugs in this library have been completed extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties. MCE EMA-Approved Drug Library is a useful tool for drug repurposing which could dramatically accelerate drug development.

From target identification to clinical research, traditional drug discovery and development is a time-consuming and costly process, which also bears high risk. Compared with traditional drug discovery, drug repositioning or repurposing, also known as old drugs for new uses can greatly shorten the development cycle and reduce development cost, which has become a new trend of drug development. After undergoing clinical trials, approved drugs have identified bioactivities, good pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety, which can greatly improve the success rate of drug discovery. A number of successes have been achieved, such as metformin for type 2 diabetes and thalidomide for leprosy and multiple myeloma, etc.

MCE provides a unique collection of 1390 China NMPA (National Medical Products Administration) approved compounds, which have undergone extensive preclinical and clinical studies and have well-characterized bioactivities, safety and bioavailability properties. MCE NMPA-Approved Drug Library is a good tool for drug repurposing which could dramatically accelerate drug development.
