TOKYO<\/span>, April 1, 2024<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — ThinkCyte today announced the publication of a paper<\/a> in the March issue of Cell Reports Methods <\/b>on a new method for high-throughput drug discovery. Together with a joint research group including investigators at the University of Tokyo<\/span> and the University of British Columbia<\/span>, the team describes the development of an approach to identify new candidate drugs by CRISPR screening using Ghost Cytometry; its artificial intelligence (AI)-driven, label-free, morphology-based cell sorting technology.<\/p>\n

In the publication, ‘Pooled CRISPR screening of high-content cellular phenotypes using ghost cytometry<\/i>,’ the team shows how VisionSort can be used to perform both label-free and fluorescence-based screening for a range of phenotypes relevant to drug discovery. Specifically, the approach enables CRISPR-based workflows, where individual genes in single cells are knocked out and screened for a desired biological response. The new approach allows for not only faster drug screening, but also opens the door to use a host of new morphology-driven phenotypes in drug discovery campaigns.<\/p>\n

The publication comes on the heels of an invited talk<\/a> at the Society for Laboratory for Automation and Screening (SLAS) meeting in February where ThinkCyte presented how VisionSort was used to perform flow-based high content intracellular phenotypic screening using DNA barcoding technology. In December, the company was also profiled<\/a> in a special edition of Cell Press highlighting the emerging uses of AI in drug discovery screening.<\/p>\n

"Our biopharma customers are looking to integrate new technologies to expand their phenotypic drug screening programs," said Janette Phi<\/span>, Chief Business Officer at ThinkCyte. "With VisionSort, they can supplement their existing workflows with a fast and flexible new discovery tool that enables them to expand their screening capabilities and build more robust early drug pipelines."<\/p>\n
