druggability evaluation

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 1,405 antibody inhibitors that can be used for drug development in cancer, immunity, infection and other hot research areas.

A diverse compound library with favorable ADMET properties (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity) is crucial in drug discovery. Early evaluation of ADMET properties allows for the exclusion of molecules with unfavorable profiles at the initial stages, thereby reducing the risk of late-stage development failures, lowering R&D costs, and accelerating optimization of lead compounds. Based on predictions from ADMET-related AI algorithms, the compounds in this library are predicted to exhibit favorable oral bioavailability (F > 30%), reasonable plasma protein binding (PPB < 98%), minimized CYP3A4 inhibition potential (inhibition probability < 50%, CYP3A4 is the most critical drug-metabolizing enzyme in the cytochrome P450 family) , low toxicity profiles, with 140 potentially toxic substructures pre-identified and excluded via substructure searching to eliminate compounds containing hazardous fragments. The diversity library enables broad applicability in high-throughput screening (HTS) and high-content screening (HCS).

Animal disease models are used in a variety of settings in basic research, such as studies on mechanisms of disease progression and evaluation new drugs. Animal models can be broadly classified into five categories: 1) experimental, 2) spontaneous, 3) negative, 4) orphan, 5) genetically engineered. Experimental models, which are induced artificially in the laboratory, are most common. Some small molecular compounds are usually used as inducers for animal models, such as Ceruletide for inflammatory model, Azoxymethane for tumor model. These inducers are useful tool in building animal models.

MCE offers a unique collection of 53 animal model inducers, involving inflammatory model, tumor model, nervous disease model, etc. MCE Animal Disease Model library is a powerful tool for the establishment of animal disease models.
