INDIGO Biosciences, Inc Bring the power of INDIGO to your lab with convenient lab-in-a box Nuclear Receptor Assay Kits. Or put our experts to the test with Contract Screening.

INDIGO Biosciences, Inc. was founded in 2005 in State College, PA. It remains a privately held biosciences company offering products and services focused on nuclear receptors, which comprise a major class of therapeutic drug targets. The Company's two founders, Dr. Jack Vanden Heuvel and Dr. Blake Peterson, leveraged their collective expertise's in nuclear receptor biology, toxicology, medicinal chemistry and molecular biology to establish the core platform technology of The Company. INDIGO Biosciences' original focus was that of a traditional contract research organization, namely, to provide custom services for the screening of small molecule compounds against functional human and non-human nuclear receptors. Over the years, The Company has demonstrated success in providing quality screening services to clients within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food, agriculture and nutriceutical industries, government research agencies, as well as to academic researchers.

By evaluating multiple relevant receptors in a consistent functional format, researchers can better understand the endocrine activity profile of a compound before advancing to more resource-intensive studies.

These results can help your team:

🧩 Characterize receptor-specific functional activity
💊 Compare compounds across a lead series
🔬 Identify unintended endocrine activity
🔍 Investigate unintended hormone receptor activity
🧪 Prioritize findings for additional characterization

Binding data can help show whether a compound interacts with a receptor. Functional data helps answer a related question: Does the compound activate or inhibit that receptor’s signaling?

INDIGO’s endocrine studies can include agonist or antagonist, concentration-response testing, comparative testing across compound series, and focused or expanded receptor panels.

Rediscover INDIGO's RAR-related Orphan Receptor Alpha (ROR) Assays!

RORα and RORγ are nuclear receptors that regulate transcriptional programs involved in immune function, metabolism, development, and circadian biology. RORγ is important in Th17 cell differentiation and inflammatory signaling, while RORα has roles in metabolic regulation and circadian rhythm, making these receptors relevant to autoimmune disease, inflammation, metabolic disorders, and other areas of drug discovery.

The principal application of this reporter assay system is in the screening of test samples to quantify functional activity they may exert against the RORs.

Unintended activity of hormone receptors can raise important questions during drug discovery and development.

INDIGO Biosciences offers Endocrine Safety Screening using cell-based reporter assays to evaluate how compounds affect key receptors. Rather than measuring binding alone, INDIGO’s assays measure whether a compound activates or inhibits receptor-mediated signaling.

Whether you are comparing lead compounds or investigating an emerging endocrine signal, INDIGO’s endocrine panel screening can provide additional mechanistic context for your compound decisions.

Rediscover INDIGO's Androgen Receptor (AR) Assays!

The Androgen Receptor (AR) is a ligand-activated nuclear receptor that regulates gene expression involved in male reproductive development, muscle and bone biology, metabolism, and other androgen-responsive processes.

Because of its role in hormone signaling, AR is widely studied in prostate cancer, endocrine disorders, reproductive health, muscle biology, and endocrine disruption research.

The principal application of this reporter assay system is in the screening of test samples to quantify functional activity they may exert against the AR.
