Manual patch-clamp technique was used to evaluate channel pharmacology using cells transiently transfected with wild-type and V434L mutant channel.
Here we outline our example where a pharma company interested in ion channels, but lacking expertise and screening platforms turned to a specialist CRO to fill this knowledge gap. In our case a Japanese pharma company with plate-based assay data wanted to expand medicinal chemistry SAR by accessing high quality APC and ion channel expertise.
During the collaboration selective Kv1.3 modulators with nM potency and efficacy against human T-cells were identified.
Manual patch-clamp technique was used to evaluate channel pharmacology using cells transiently transfected with wild-type and V434L mutant channel.
The HESI Cardiac Safety Committee present results from an international ion channel research study that assessed the variability of hERG data generated using automated patch clamp platforms (QPatch 48, Qube 384 and the SyncroPatch 384i) across four different labs.
