Cell Line Development & Screening Platform

At CD BioSciences, our Cell Line Development & Screening Platform provides tailored services to support human herpesvirus (HHV)-related research in the preclinical stages. We combine advanced technologies, expert knowledge, and an extensive understanding of HHV biology to offer high-quality, reliable, and reproducible cell lines, ensuring that our clients can effectively advance their research and therapeutic developments.

Our Platform Overview

The Cell Line Development & Screening Platform is designed to enable researchers to develop stable, high-performance cell lines essential for studying HHV biology, drug discovery, and vaccine development. By utilizing cutting-edge technologies and a wealth of expertise in molecular biology, we can create robust cell models that mimic the relevant conditions of HHV infection and latency. These models are key for understanding viral replication, host-pathogen interactions, immune responses, and evaluating antiviral therapies.

Our platform includes the following services:

Cell Line Generation

We offer custom cell line generation services, where we develop viral infection-competent cell lines, suitable for screening antiviral compounds, investigating viral mechanisms, and testing vaccine candidates.

Stable Cell Line Development

By utilizing advanced gene-editing tools such as CRISPR and RNA interference (RNAi), we can generate stable cell lines that express specific genes or viral proteins, enabling more targeted studies of HHV infection.

Screening Services

Our platform is integrated with high-throughput screening (HTS) capabilities that allow for large-scale antiviral screening. Researchers can efficiently evaluate the antiviral efficacy of novel compounds and their mechanisms of action using our cell lines.

Cell Line Characterization

We provide extensive characterization of developed cell lines, ensuring they accurately represent HHV infection and latency. This includes thorough validation of cell functionality, viral replication, and cytokine response.

Specialized Cell Models for HHV Research

Our cell lines are specifically designed for studying HHV infections, including but not limited to HSV (Herpes Simplex Virus), VZV (Varicella Zoster Virus), CMV (Cytomegalovirus), and KSHV (Kaposi's Sarcoma-associated Herpesvirus). These cell lines are invaluable for researchers working on antiviral drug discovery, immunotherapy, and vaccine development.

The platform supports the generation of latency models, which are crucial for studying the dormant phase of HHV and the factors influencing viral reactivation. Additionally, we offer co-culture systems for studying host-pathogen interactions and the immune response in a controlled environment.
