testing cytokine targeting
The search for compounds that target pro-inflammatory mediators is of ever increasing importance to treat various diseases such osteoarthritis or psoriasis.
Using relevant and standardizable human telomerized cell lines, Evercyte offers services for testing compounds for a potency to reduce the release of certain pro-inflammatory cytokines.
General information
In vitro model: Evercyte´s in vitro bioassays to test compounds for a potential to alter cytokine release are based on human telomerized cells from different tissues and organs (e.g. skin, cornea, lung, vascular system, kidney, placenta).
Testing the response of fibroblasts to Interleukin-17A treatment
release of Interleukin-6 upon Interleukin-17A treatment
Treatment of human dermal fibroblasts (fHDF/TERT166) with Interleukin-17A (IL17A) results in expression of Interleukin-6 (IL6) in a concentration dependent manner. This model system therefore allows screening for compounds that inhibit the cellular response to IL17A and subsequently counteract the pro-inflammatory activity of IL17A and tissue inflammation.
