Cell & Gene Therapy

Advancing your search for the latest therapies

Cell therapy involves the transfer of cells into a patient’s body with the aim of treating a disease. These cells may be derived from a donor or taken from and reinfused into the same individual.

Gene therapy is an exciting technique which aims to treat or prevent diseases through the introduction of genes into patient’s cells. Typically, gene therapy works by inserting a working copy of a gene into cells to replace the function of a faulty copy which is causing a disease- this might be because the faulty gene is producing a defective form of a critical protein. It can also be utilized to insert a completely new gene to make a beneficial protein in cells. Therefore unlike existing pharmaceuticals, gene therapy aims to treat the cause of genetic diseases and not just the symptoms.

Regenerative medicine

Regenerative medicine aims to develop methods to regrow, repair or replace damaged or diseased cells, organs or tissues. This involves therapy treatments using stem cells or tissue engineering techniques.

We understand that transitioning from research to clinical applications requires consistent, robust and scalable procedures. AMSBIO provides a range of cell products which cover from sourcing your starting cell material, growing and storing cell lines, differentiating to specialized cell types and GMP-compliant manufacturing.

Gene therapy

Gene Therapy covers both research and clinical development of novel therapeutic techniques based on a genetic engineering approaches. From identifying novel genetic targets that cause disease through to clinical studies testing the efficiency of therapeutic methods, we offer high quality products and services to support you. This includes gene delivery methods and CRISPR reagents to enable gene editing.

Genetically Engineered iPSCs

Genetically engineered iPSCs enable cell therapy research with improved fidelity over cell lines and biochemical assays. This also provides an ideal model system for drug discovery with high throughput and reduced cost compared to animal model systems. Our ready-to-use genetically engineered cell lines reduce the time and materials needed for gene editing to allow human disease modelling for the development of therapies.
