Preclinical Anti-Psoriatic Efficacy Evaluation Services
The development of effective antipsoriatic drugs is a complex process, requiring a comprehensive approach that encompasses preclinical efficacy evaluation. At Ace Therapeutics, we are dedicated to supporting the development of innovative antipsoriatic drugs by providing comprehensive preclinical anti-psoriatic efficacy evaluation services.
The Importance of Preclinical Anti-Psoriatic Efficacy Evaluation
Preclinical efficacy evaluation serves as a critical step in the drug development pipeline. The multifaceted nature of psoriasis, driven by complex immune and inflammatory pathways, requires comprehensive preclinical studies to elucidate potential therapeutic mechanisms and evaluate their efficacy. The intricate interplay between immune responses and skin barrier dysfunction underlies the need for robust experimental models. In vitro and in vivo studies are essential for understanding the mechanisms of action of potential drugs and for evaluating their therapeutic efficacy.

Comprehensive Preclinical Anti-Psoriatic Efficacy Evaluation Services
At Ace Therapeutics, we specialize in providing comprehensive anti-psoriatic efficacy evaluation services. Our expertise spans both in vitro and in vivo assessments, enabling us to provide detailed insights into the therapeutic potential of drug candidates.
In Vitro Efficacy Evaluation
Our in vitro services focus on evaluating the anti-inflammatory properties of potential therapeutic agents.
| Service Options | Descriptions |
| Keratinocyte Proliferation Assessment | We assess the impact of treatments on keratinocyte growth rates by measuring cell counts and proliferation markers. A reduction in proliferation of psoriasis-like keratinocytes indicates therapeutic efficacy. |
| Cytokine Release Quantification | Using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), we quantify the secretion of key pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and TNF-α. Decreased cytokine levels suggest a reduction in inflammation and improved therapeutic response. |
In Vivo Efficacy Evaluation
Ace Therapeutics provides robust in vivo efficacy testing services using well-established psoriasis models.
| Service Options | Descriptions |
| PASI Scoring | We monitor the degree of imiquimod (IMQ)-induced skin injury using the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI). This scoring system assesses three key parameters: erythema (redness), induration (thickness), and scaling, providing a quantitative evaluation of treatment efficacy. |
| Epidermis Thickness Measurement | Pathological changes in psoriasis-like skin lesions are assessed through histological analysis, including Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining. By measuring the thickness of the epidermis, we gain insights into the severity of the lesions and the effects of drug candidates. |
| IL-17A and IL-23 Expression Analysis | In our humanized hIL17A/hIL17F mouse models, we evaluate the expression levels of IL-17A and IL-23. This analysis provides a valuable platform for testing therapeutics that specifically target human IL-17A, facilitating the development of more effective treatments for psoriasis. |
