  Alfa Cytology announced its pancreatic cancer research services for anticancer therapy in the early preclinical stages. Alfa Cytology, a premier contract research organization, recently launched its full-scale pancreatic cancer preclinical research services with robust platforms, powerful analytics, and cross-platform collaborations. Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a severe disease that is difficult to diagnose in the early stages due to its complex and hidden nature. Studies found that the incidence rate of PC has been increasing each year, especially in people over 45 years old. Even young patients suffering from PC are showing a significant increase compared to a decade ago, and the malignancy is also higher than before, resulting in a worse prognosis. To realize preclinical prediction and diagnosis of PC, Alfa Cytology provides a variety of services, such as molecular experiments of PC, detection & diagnosis of PC, and therapy strategy of PC in full tracking support. The range of PC basic research services includes PC pathology research, PC cell research, PC stem cell research, PC tumor model, and more. At the same time, Alfa Cytology can also offer drug development services for pancreatic cancer with the data obtained from PC basic research. “The new drug development services focus on the hotspot of pancreatic tumor. We closely work with researchers to develop small molecule drugs and peptide drugs for PC as they are the most promising and potential anti-pancreatic cancer drugs,” said the operation manager of Alfa Cytology. “Furthermore, we are working on a multidimensional study in anticancer. Through our neoantigen preclinical research service, Alfa Cytology identifies unique cancer-carrying genes by sequencing tumor cell genes to predict immune presentation affinity. Then we screen out characteristic neoantigens encoded, hoping to make a huge contribution to tumor immunotherapy.”  Scientists of Alfa Cytology work on tailored projects by diagnosing PC and identifying its biomarkers. The ultimate aim of the company is to assist clients in developing new drugs that are more cost-effective, less toxic, and have higher efficacy and safety to meet the market’s needs. Alfa Cytology possesses a comprehensive understanding of the tumor immunological profile of PC, including intra-tumor heterogeneity, intersection with the tumor-microenvironment, and microenvironmental instability. Hence, it can help clients achieve precise and feasible development applications of biotech to enhance the safety and efficacy of such pharmaceutical innovation for PC. About Alfa CytologyAlfa Cytology is a contract research organization (CRO) that specializes in early discovery and preclinical studies of tumors. It was founded by experts and scientists and has grown from a small team to a larger one capable of developing new therapies for cancer therapies. Alfa Cytology provides comprehensive research services, helping individual researchers and organizations achieve success cost-effectively.  

  Alfa Cytology has announced its molecular biology services for TME research. Alfa Cytology, a specialized biotechnology company headquartered in the United States, focusing on tumor microenvironment (TME), has announced its molecular biology services for TME research. The launch of the service indicates that the company is developing towards precision and depth in TME research. TME refers to the surrounding environment of tumor cells, which feed the latter as normal cells, molecules, and blood vessels. They make an influence on each other closely. Analyzing the biological components in TME helps to detect harmful substances in cells as early as possible, facilitating early detection, diagnosis, and treatment. Molecular biology tools offer valuable insights into gene expression patterns, protein profiles, genetic alterations, epigenetic modifications, and functional properties of key molecules within the TME. By employing techniques such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), single-cell sequencing, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and DNA methylation profiling, researchers can uncover key molecular mechanisms driving TME dysregulation. Studying the cellular components of the TME can be essential. Alfa Cytology provides services for the analysis of cellular components in TME, such as analysis of gene mutations, signaling pathways, and molecular targets in TME. To analyze specific cellular components from different perspectives based on the various needs of customers, Alfa Cytology’s services can be customized and expected to become a reliable method for testing adverse components in tumors to promote progress in biotechnology. “We are all striving to conduct research on tumor microenvironment from multiple dimensions, laying a solid foundation for providing diverse and high standard services, and eager to achieve innovative exploration in TME.” said the Director of Marketing Department of Alfa Cytology. “Our team is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of cancer research and finding new ways to understand and treat tumors. By collaborating with top scientists and utilizing cutting-edge technology, we hope to make a real difference in the fight against cancer.” In addition to TME solutions, Alfa Cytology is also engaged in breast cancer (BC) research to help clients predict breast cancer with high precision and successfully develop BC diagnostic biomarkers through breast cancer AI diagnostic services (e.g. miRNA biomarkers for breast cancer diagnostics and protein biomarkers for breast cancer diagnostics). Due to the difficulty of manual analysis in breast cancer detection, the results of AI analysis are expected to help improve BC diagnostic accuracy and avoid unnecessary errors. About Alfa CytologyAlfa Cytology, an integrated biotechnology company headquartered in the United States, focuses on tumor microenvironment research and cancer preclinical research services. The company strives to continuously provide a comprehensive technology portfolio with in-house technologies, which is an important prerequisite for continued growth.
