Disease Models

In vitro programs to inform lead selection and optimization of drug candidates.

Metabolic and Liver Disease Models

GainMed offers unique assays based on its proprietary technologies and access to collections of cells, tissues and other biospecimens to assess certain properties of drug candidates. Data from these models has informed preclinical and clinical development of drugs including drugs that received regulatory approval for their indications.

Metabolic Disease Assays

GainMed ‘s metabolic disease assay programs assess metabolic function and the potential of drug candidates indicated for diabetes and obesity, and include the following assays:

  • Adipokine Secretion

  • Fatty Acid and Glycerol Detection

  • Glucose Uptake

  • Hepatic Glucose Production

  • Inhibition of Lipid Accumulation

  • Lipid Accumulation

  • Lipolysis

  • Mitochondrial Mass Assay

  • Oxygen Consumption Rate Analysis

  • Pathway Analysis

Liver Disease Models

GainMed’s in vitro liver disease models, developed using its proprietary B-CLEAR® Technology and expertise in bile acid homeostasis, support drug developers in assessing candidates for NAFLD and MASH therapies.
