The potential to grow and maintain any cell type of interest has excellent clinical value, creating the opportunity to develop a scalable and functional cell source for ex vivo cell therapy development, and explore novel therapeutic modalities.
Unfortunately, generating induced pluripotent stem cells can often be a costly and time-consuming process.
Stemnovate offers custom reprogramming services, saving you the time which can be better spent performing valuable research experiments.
&nbsp;
<h2 class="p-1 text-center font-weight-bold">More Information</h2>
Cellular reprogramming involves transient expression of inducible genes to generate stable lines. The stable IPSC lines are selected through stringent pluripotency characterisation and the ability of cells to differentiate into derivatives of three germ layers.
Cell fates during development are neither restrictive nor irreversible. Pluripotent cells can form all somatic lineages.
Cellular reprogramming has multiple applications: we can now convert a patient's blood cells to study any organ's disease process; cellular reprogramming could also be used to evaluate the efficacy and safety of newly developed drugs on human patient cells, or test drugs that might have side effects in only a small subpopulation of patients in a personalised manner before administration.
Stemnovate has a commercial license for IPS technology, and with that, we have molecular design and analysis capability for efficient reprogramming.

We provide the best human cell models for drug discovery and disease modelling using cellular reprogramming. The ethical method uses adult skin or blood cells donated by volunteers and is core to our biobank, reflecting human diversity in age, gender, and ethnicity.
Cellular reprogramming unleashes endless possibilities within drug development and research. It directs cellular identity to produce a therapeutically valuable cell type.

All cells are derived from stem cells and obtain their functions as they mature. Cell differentiation is how progenitor cells change their functional or phenotypical type.
Interestingly, the differentiation process alters the cell's shape, size, and energy requirements.
We use mechanical and chemical stimuli to direct IPSC to the liver, heart, neurons, bone and muscle cells, to name a few.

Cell differentiation is known as a process in which cells become specialized. Stem cells have the potential to become any cell type at the beginning, but this capability is slowly lost as the cell differentiates and gains unique functions.&nbsp;

<h2 class="p-1 text-center font-weight-bold">Genotyping</h2>
The genotype is the genetic makeup of a cell, organism or individual with reference to a particular characteristic. The DNA variants are shown to modulate protein function, and hence drug response, through multiple mechanisms. Genetic polymorphism for cytochrome 450 (P450) enzymes leads to interindividual variability in the plasma concentrations of many drugs. In some cases, P450 genotype results in decreased enzyme activity and an increased risk for adverse drug effects. In other cases, P450 genotype may influence the dose of a drug required to achieve a desired effect.
&nbsp;
<h3 class=" font-weight-bold">How Genotyping influences Drug Discovery?</h3>
Human population reveals differences in drug metabolism and response. <a class="reference-website" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14618296/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The poor metabolizers with absent cytochrome P450CYP2D6 are found in 5&ndash;10% of European and African populations, but are less common in Asian subjects.</a>

Stemnovate provides whole genome transcriptomics as a service. This invaluable tool provides an unprecedented coverage and depth into the transcriptional regulation of cells. The platform utilises high accuracy for both long and short reads. We provide bioinformatics to reveal gene signalling networks and novel transcript signalling pathways.

Our unique platform operates with highly efficient, data-driven processes. These processes, which utilize high-resolution images, genomic profiles, biological data, and molecular and metabolite profiles, are designed to significantly benefit your drug discovery and toxicology research. By correlating, assimilating, and connecting this data at a rapid pace, we aid in discovering patterns, thereby accelerating your study and increasing the likelihood of successful outcomes.
&nbsp;
Our ambition to automate toxicity prediction is not just a technological advancement. It's a potential game-changer for precision drug discovery, with the power to revolutionize the industry and make precision medicine a reality.
&nbsp;
Platform Features
Stemnovate is a leader in the field, with a team of experts who are not just capable, but also passionate about designing experiments and microengineering bespoke solutions to enhance the repeatability of complex cell cultures. Our team's expertise ensures that your research is in the best hands. Once a methodology is optimized, the process can be set for reproducibility and automation.
&nbsp;
Our platform is dedicated to supporting projects in achieving a higher standard of accuracy. We do this by evaluating biocompatibility and tolerance, ensuring that your research is of the highest quality.
&nbsp;
Stemnovate In Vitro Toxicology 
Stemnovate's in vitro toxicology assays utilize primary cells or induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cells, such as heart, liver, and neuronal cells, in controlled laboratory conditions to assess the toxic properties of compounds and mixtures. These assays provide accurate results and eliminate the need for animal testing, aligning with ethical research practices.
&nbsp;
We develop assays to examine the toxicity of xenobiotics at the cellular level, replacing animal testing, which often fails to represent human physiological responses due to species differences accurately.
&nbsp;
Quality Control&nbsp;&nbsp;
We provide various quality tests to evaluate the quality of cell products. These tests employ advanced bioinformatics along with gene and protein expression analysis. Our quality control measures include testing for:
&nbsp;
- Mycoplasma
- Human viruses (HIV-1, HIV-2, HBV, HCV)
- Animal species-specific viruses
- Mycobacterium

Stemnovate in vitro testing platform simulates the liver, heart and neuronal cell response to evaluate predictable and unpredictable toxins over the breadth of the genetically diverse human population.&nbsp;

It is well known that stem cell culture over a long time can result in genetic instability. For your research to move forward confidently, you must be able to monitor your cell culture for genomic integrity quickly and continuously.

&nbsp;
The human population has four races,&nbsp;white/Caucasian, Mongoloid/Asian, Negroid/Black, and Australoid. There is not only a difference in hair and skin but also interindividual variability in drug metabolism. The Cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes primarily contribute to these differences. There are several gene variants but the primary genes included in drug labelling are limited to&nbsp;CYP2C9,&nbsp;CYP2C19, and&nbsp;CYP2D6.
The CYP2D6 enzyme metabolises about 25% of clinically used drugs, including anti-depressants, antipsychotics, antihypertensives, and analgesics.&nbsp;
Stemnovate provides genotype studies for CYP1A1, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4.
&nbsp;

A genotyping analysis attempts to untangle the complex relationships between genotypes and phenotypes.
