Mitochondrial toxicity in drug discovery
16 Jun 2022Mitochondria are critical regulators of normal cell function and health; consequently, their dysfunction plays a central role in many diseases. Drug-induced mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to compound attrition, organ toxicity, black-box warnings, and market withdrawals, therefore it is important to identify mitochondrial toxicity during the early stages of the drug discovery process. Download this infographic to explore the impact of mitochondrial toxicity and learn of the benefits of novel in-vitro strategies for drug safety.

Cell-Based AssaysCell-based assays are used to monitor the presence, quantity and activities of a desired cellular analyte including drug molecules or biomarkers. This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms. Find the best cell-based assay products, kits and equipment with our peer reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receiving pricing direct from manufacturers.MitochondriaToxicityToxicity is defined as the degree to which a substance can harm humans or animals. It is essential to study the toxicity of pharmaceutical products during the development process so that optimum dosage can be established for the administration of the drug.Toxicology Screening
