Adipose and muscle tissue biopsy

Profil conducts biopsies of adipose and skeletal muscle tissue as part of in-depth pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameter studies during clinical investigations into diabetes treatments. Depending on the requirements of a specific study design, our teams can perform open biopsies and needle biopsies (or extended punch biopsies). Adipose and skeletal muscle tissue can be processed for the analysis of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameter by means of cell culture-based assays, histology, and DNA, RNA and protein isolation.
