General description

Maintenance of physiological balance in the body is attributed in part to normal kidney function. An altered kidney function due to injury, drug toxicity or kidney failure may be life threatening. There are multiple risk factors for kidney injury including age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, heart failure and liver failure. On the other hand, drug induced damage to the kidney results from drug excretion. Traditional markers for assessing renal toxicity, such as blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine, are insensitive and non-specific. Although both are direct measurements of renal function, increases in serum concentrations of these biomarkers occur only after substantial renal injury. Specificity and earlier detection of kidney injury is vital. For improved detection of acute nephrotoxicity, a panel of novel urinary kidney biomarkers has been identified and validated for preclinical studies in relevant animal species. We provide valuable research assays to investigate multiple biomarkers of kidney injury in mouse urine samples using the Luminex® xMAP® instrument platform.

The MILLIPLEX® Mouse Kidney Injury Bead Panel 2 contains all the components necessary to measure the following five biomarkers in any combination using Luminex® xMAP® technology: Clusterin, Cystatin C, EGF, Lipocalin-2/NGAL, Osteopontin (OPN). The kit uses a 96-well format, contains a lyophilized standard cocktail, two quality controls and can measure up to 38 urine samples in duplicate.

Tricyclo-DNA (tcDNA) is a conformationally constrained oligonucleotide analog that has demonstrated great therapeutic potential as antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) for several diseases. Like most ASOs in clinical development, tcDNA were modified with phosphorothioate (PS) backbone for therapeutic purposes in order to

Tricyclo-DNA (tcDNA) antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) hold promise for therapeutic splice-switching applications and the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in particular. We have previously reported the therapeutic potential of tcDNA-ASO in mouse models of DMD, highlighting their unique pharmaceutical properties
