Drug Discovery and Toxicology

IPSC-Based Models Transforming How Drugs are Tested for Safety and Effectiveness.

Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have revolutionized drug discovery and toxicology studies by enabling the development of human-relevant, patient-specific cell models. These advanced models significantly enhance the predictive accuracy of drug efficacy and safety assessments compared to traditional animal models and immortalized cell lines.

iPSCs can differentiate into virtually any human cell type, including hepatocytes, cardiomyocytes, and neuronal cells, providing biologically relevant systems for evaluating therapeutic candidates. Their use in drug discovery reduces reliance on animal models, lowers costs, improves scalability, and increases the predictive power of preclinical studies, facilitating a smoother transition to clinical trials.

Traditional methods for drug screening and toxicity testing often rely on animal models or immortalized cell lines, which lack predictive accuracy and physiological relevance to human biology. Variability in iPSC culture conditions and differentiation protocols can also hinder reproducibility, while high costs associated with specialized media and cell culture reagents present additional barriers.

Defined Bioscience offers advanced, serum-free, defined media formulations tailored to support consistent and reproducible iPSC maintenance and differentiation. Our HiDef-B8 medium and Ready-CEPT supplement significantly improve the efficiency and reliability of generating functional cell models, reducing variability, and enabling robust, scalable drug screening and toxicological assessments.
