Our service is grounded in scientific rigor, providing you with the precise data you need to make informed decisions and advance your pipeline with confidence.
CD73 in Antitumor Immunity
CD73 expression on tumor microenvironment cells is regulated by HIF-1α. Upregulated CD39 and CD73 convert ATP to immunosuppressive adenosine, which binds to adenosine receptors on neoplastic cells, promoting cancer growth. CD39/CD73 also acts as 'immunological switches' that shift the immune response from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory. This immunosuppressive environment affects immune cells like macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and T cells. For example, adenosine stimulates M2 macrophage polarization, suppresses DCs, and diminishes the function of antitumor T cells, while enhancing immunosuppressive regulatory T cells (Tregs).

FAQs
How can your CD73 assays help me overcome drug resistance in my cancer model?
Our assays are meticulously designed to precisely measure CD73 activity in various cellular contexts, including cancer cell lines known for chemoresistance. We recognize that CD73-mediated adenosine signaling can promote an immunosuppressive environment that not only protects tumor cells from immune attack but also contributes to therapeutic resistance.
What advantages do your cell-based assays offer compared to standard biochemical screening?
While biochemical assays are excellent for initial high-throughput screening to identify raw binding or inhibition, our cell-based assays provide a more physiologically relevant context. They bridge the gap between simple test tube reactions and the complexity of a living system. Our cell-based assays allow you to assess critical factors such as a compound's cell permeability, off-target effects, and efficacy on CD73 expressed on a living cell's membrane.
