Therapeutic approaches for Parkinson’s disease are either focused on disease modification (a-synuclein or MPTP models) or symptom management (haloperidol or 6-OHDA models). Therapeutic approaches for Parkinson’s disease are either focused on disease modification (a-synuclein or MPTP models) or symptom management (haloperidol or 6-OHDA models). Our scientists have validated available PD models for changes in fine motor skills, L-dopa-induced dyskinesias, drug-induced jaw movements, and non-motor endpoints such as cognition, constipation, and EDS. Additionally, we have also tested dopamine and other neurotransmitter levels in brain compartments of rodent and large animal models via microdialysis sampling.

The analysis of Host Cell Proteins (HCPs) has historically been performed using ELISA-based tests. A number of off-the-shelf products (e.g. Cygnus kits) are available and the testing is relatively straightforward. However, it been recognized for some time that these kits generally allow detection of a maximum of ~70% of the HCPs present in biopharmaceutical products. This is due to the fact that in any anti-HCP antibody pool, there won’t be antibodies available to cover the entire spectrum of HCP species present.
