INDIGO Now Offers Profiling of Genes Regulated by Nuclear Receptors

“Critical Step in Understanding the downstream genomic impact of interactions with nuclear receptors”

State College, Pennsylvania, July 23, 2015

INDIGO Biosciences Inc., a recognized industry-leading provider of nuclear receptor products and services, announced today that it has expanded its service portfolio by offering analyses of nuclear receptor regulated genes.

Gene expression is a widely used approach for characterizing biological perturbations, defining the molecular mechanisms of diseases and making critical decisions about risks associated with compounds of interest. INDIGO’s highly-trained specialists can provide a comprehensive offering of genomic services including RNA extraction, qPCR services, microarray services, and microarray data analysis. They will help you identify the appropriate technology, experimental design and program goals to ensure that your needs will be met.

  • INDIGO offers predesigned panels of optimized primers for NR targets.
  • Experience in gene selection for disease and pathway-specific studies including inflammation, cancer, diabetes, and drug metabolism-related gene expression.
  • INDIGO provides data on mRNA levels relative to a housekeeping gene, statistical analysis and interpretation in their study report.

Changes in the gene expression of nuclear receptor targets control the progression of metabolic disease, hypertension, inflammation, bone density, reproductive disorders, and gender differentiation. “We are excited to add Gene Expression Services to our portfolio. It represents a significant expansion opportunity and enhances our industry leading position,” says Dr. Jack Vanden Heuvel, Chief Scientific Officer.
