Live Biotherapeutics Drug Discovery Services for Chronic Kidney Disease
The potential utilization of therapies modulating gut microbiota such as probiotics has emerged as an attractive strategy to treat chronic kidney disease (CKD). Equipped with world-leading technology platforms and professional scientific staff, Creative Biolabs is committed to providing overall solutions for next-generation probiotics (NGPs) discovery, focusing on innovative research and development of probiotics industrialization. Scientists at Creative Biolabs are pleased to share our experience in NGPs development for the treatment of CKD with our global clients and facilitate their meaningful researches.
Introduction of CKD
CKD, especially end-stage renal disease (ESRD), threatens global health and leads to various health problems. The progression of CKD might be influenced by several factors, such as dietary intake, mental stress, or medications. Recent studies revealed the importance of the gut microbiota in the development and progression of CKD. Dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota increases urea toxins, which damage the epithelial tight junctions and increase the permeability of the intestinal wall via endotoxemia and systemic inflammation. As a consequence, intestinal endotoxins may go through the intestinal wall into the blood circulation, induce microinflammation in the kidney and cause renal endothelial dysfunction, fibrosis, and tubular damages. Unfortunately, most of the current treatments exhibit inherent disadvantages, such as side effects, high cost, and unavailability in patients with moderate CKD, and remain limited to experimental studies.
CKD and Probiotics
Due to their various health-promoting effects and inherent ability to fight specific diseases, probiotics are the focus of a thorough investigation as a natural biotreatment. Probiotics supplementation has emerged as adjuvant therapy for CKD in recent years because of the low cost of probiotics. Indeed, intestinal microbiota has recently emerged as an important player in the progression and complications of CKD. Many studies have shown that probiotics could slow down the progression of CKD by regulating the intestinal flora alteration and by reducing the urea toxin.
Lots of experimental and clinical studies using probiotics in CKD have been performed. However, high-quality interventional trials investigating probiotic treatment in CKD are lacking. Moreover, studies investigating the impact of probiotics on clinical endpoints have not been conducted so far. Besides, the quality, size, and design of trials are not sufficient enough to justify the widespread use of probiotics.
NGPs Discovery Service at Creative Biolabs
The interest in developing new probiotics in CKD has increased to fully explore their therapeutic potentials. Since lots of multifactorial physiological functions of probiotics are highly strain-specific, identification of probiotics based on their expression of functional biomarkers is critical. With years of research in live biotherapeutics drug discovery, Creative Biolabs has developed a cutting-edge platform for NGPs identification and functional characterization. Our scientists offer accurate and effective solutions for researchers who are committed to developing NGPs for the treatment of CKD.
The powerful platform, professional technical scientists, and abundant experience make Creative Biolabs a perfect partner to help our clients in the discovery of NGPs for CKD treatment. Just feel free to contact us and communicate with us about your specific puzzles. Our Ph.D. scientists will offer you professional solutions as soon as possible.
