Measurements such as the entrapped aqueous volume per unit of phospholipid provides useful information to predict the entrapment efficiency of the population. The concentration of the phospholipids and the encapsulated contents are also crucial characteristics of liposomal systems and are required to calculate liposomal yields, costs, and optimise processes. Creative Biostructure employs various methods to characterize the liposome solution and the drug-loaded liposomes.

Nanodiscs are soluble nanoscale phospholipid bilayers, encircled and stabilized by membrane scaffold proteins (MSP). They have been proven to be powerful and promising tools to study membrane proteins. Compared with other strategies, such as liposomes, bicelles and detergent micelles, nanodiscs are more close to native environment where proteins remain monodisperse and active. Creative Biostructure offers a variety of approaches for nanodisc analysis, including surface plasmon resonance (SPR), Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), native Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (PAGE), free flow electrophoresis (FFE) and Chromatography.

Finding active compounds targeting a biological target is the first step in a drug discovery project, a process known as hit identification, and it can be challenging. In drug discovery programs, faster progress and lower attrition rates can be achieved by obtaining high-quality hits. There are many approaches to achieve this goal, from traditional high-throughput screening to virtual screening, fragment-based technology to high content screening. Creative Biostructure offers a range of customized solutions to help you succeed in the hit identification process. Our team will design a strategy for the project based on the nature of the project and the information available and the approaches we provide can be applied individually or in parallel.

After screening out the compounds showing potential activity against the target through the hit identification stage, it is necessary to carry out further characterization and optimization of these hit compounds. And this stage is termed as hit to lead. The goal of this stage is to identify the most promising hit series through limited structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies to enter the lead optimization and preclinical development stage. With a dedicated team of skilled scientists and technicians, Creative Biostructure provides MagHelix™ hit evaluation and lead identification (hit to lead) solutions to meet our clients’ needs and goals.

Once the most promising hit compounds have been identified as leads through the efforts of hit to lead, it will enter the stage of lead optimization and preclinical development of early drug development, which are the key processes for finalizing drug candidates entering clinical trials. Lead optimization aims to improve the properties of lead compounds including stability, potency, efficacy, exposure, safety, etc. Lead optimization involves a sophisticated iterative stage in which the bioactivity and drug activity of the lead series are extensively optimized through various screening filters, and development candidates are ultimately determined for preclinical development. Preclinical development, also known as IND-enabling studies, involves testing development candidates in various in vitro and in vivo assays to examine their safety pharmacology and toxicology profile.

Natural products are a source of chemical diversity and are an ideal starting point for most screening programs for pharmacologically active small molecules. Natural products can be extracted from tissues, cells, and secretions of microorganisms, animals, and plants. Crude extracts from any of these biological sources will contain a wide range of structurally diverse and novel compounds. Chemical diversity in nature is based on biological diversity. Pharmacognosy can offer the tools to identify, select, and process natural products destined for drug discovery. Usually, the natural product compound has some form of biological activity and that compound is known as the active principle - such a structure can evolve to become a discovery "lead".

Structure-based drug design (SBDD) is an approach of drug design based on molecular recognition, starting from the three-dimensional (3D) structure of ligands and targets. In this drug discovery strategy, the 3D structure of the target is crucial, which can be obtained by structural biology techniques or homology modeling, and then study the interaction mode of the ligand and the receptor via experimental or computational methods. On this basis, rational drug design is carried out.

The process of looking for a new drug against a specific target for a certain disease commonly involves high-throughput screening (HTS), wherein large libraries of chemicals are tested for their ability to modulate the biological activity of the target. For instance, if the target is a novel GPCR, compounds will be screened for their ability to inhibit or stimulate the receptor; if the target is a protein kinase, the chemicals will be tested for their ability to inhibit the kinase. Creative Biostructure provides custom high-throughput screening services, and our biochemical/cell-based HTS technologies allow us to efficiently screen hits from a variety of compound libraries.

How to find or design a class of small molecule compounds that bind to the target and change its biological activity under the premise of known target structural information? Structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) is one of the significant means to solve such problems. By using computational methods and the three-dimensional (3D) structural information of the biological target, Creative Biostructure can help you study the underlying molecular interactions involved in protein-ligand binding, and screen out compounds for further optimization in a faster and more economical manner.

Ligand-based virtual screening (LBVS) is a good option for hit identification if the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the target is unknown or if it is challenging to perform virtual drug screening through structure-based methods. The LBVS strategy is based on the assumption that molecules with similar structures (e.g., chemical structures, pharmacophores, molecular fields) tend to have similar properties and functions. Methods of screening potential hits based on physical, chemical, and thermodynamic properties have proven to be reliable, and techniques such as substructure mining and fingerprint searches of LBVS are less time-consuming than the molecular docking technique of structure-based virtual screening (SBVS) strategy. Creative Biostructure provides LBVS solutions to support drug discovery projects. Generally, we first generate fingerprints with high dimension of features to describe the chemical characteristics of ligands and then apply similarity searching or machine learning approaches for screening in high-dimensional data.
