Pre-Made Ledelabricin Alfa biosimilar, Recombinant Protein: Recombinant therapeutic protein targeting PRG4(PROTEOGLYCAN 4) is a biosimilar expressed by mammalian cell line as a benchmark reference therapeutic antibody for biological drug disovery items including cell culture, assay development, animal model development, PK/PD model development (Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacodynamic) and mechanism of action (MOA) research.
Proteoglycan 4 or lubricin is a surface-active mucinous glycoprotein secreted in the synovial joint that plays an important role in cartilage integrity. In healthy joints, lubricin molecules coat the cartilage surface, providing boundary lubrication and preventing cell and protein adhesion. Arthropathy occurring in patients with joint trauma, inflammatory arthritis or genetically mediated lubricin deficiencies have insufficient lubricin to prevent damage to articular cartilage. Ledelabricin Alfa is a human proteoglycan 4 isoform A variant, produced in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells have been used to treat Arthropathy
