New image-based cellular profiling tool peers deeply into metabolic biology

Broad Institute

Common genetic variants associated with cardiometabolic disease can produce phenotype changes of such small effect that they can be difficult to characterize. Fat cells stained yellow to show the actin cytoskeleton, plasma membrane, and Golgi apparatus. Credit: Phil Kubitz, Claussnitzer lab Fat cells stained blue to show nuclei. “I

Accelerating Drug Discovery Through Repurposing

DrugBank

CMap utilizes gene expression profiles to connect drugs, genes, and diseases, enabling researchers to identify potential repurposing candidates based on their transcriptional signatures. Key techniques include high-throughput screening (HTS), cell-based assays, and animal models.
