Creative Biogene ensures high-quality adenovirus particles by optimizing and standardizing production protocols and performing stringent quality control (QC). The specific QC experiments performed vary between adenovirus particle lots.
Endotoxin Endotoxins, primarily derived from Gram-negative bacteria, can trigger adverse immune responses. Endotoxin contamination is a significant concern in adenovirus production, especially for applications in animal studies and gene therapy. Creative Biogene utilizes rigorous endotoxin detection methods to monitor the endotoxin level in our produced adenovirus particles to ensure regulatory compliance.
Sterility Creative Biogene ensures that adenovirus products are free of any bacterial, fungal and other microbial contamination.
Ad5 E1 Detection All Creative Biogene adenoviruses are PCR tested to ensure that there are no detectable E1 sequences in the particles, which could be from revertants or external E1 contamination.
RCA Assays Adenovirus products originating at Creative Biogene are guaranteed to have undetectable replication-competent adenovirus (RCA). This quality control measure is important because there is always the possibility of wild-type contamination due to revertants or environmental sources.
PFU Titering All purified adenovirus preparations are tested for infectious titer. Creative Biogene's PFU test takes a few days longer but counts true plaques in HEK cells rather than estimating PFU titers via IHC staining or TCI50 of infected cells.

The PR domain-containing 16 (PRDM16) gene encodes a transcriptional regulator that plays a key role in cell differentiation, metabolism, and tissue homeostasis. The gene is particularly known for its role in adipocyte browning, promoting the conversion of white adipocytes into beige or brown adipocytes with energy dissipation functions, thereby enhancing thermogenesis and metabolic health. PRDM16 also contributes to the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells, cardiac development, and neuronal differentiation. Structurally, PRDM16 contains a PR/SET domain that mediates histone methylation, as well as zinc finger domains that promote DNA binding and protein interactions. Dysregulation of PRDM16 has been associated with metabolic disorders, leukemia, and cardiovascular disease, making it a promising target for therapeutic and research applications. Human PRDM16 adenoviral particles are genetically engineered viral vectors designed to deliver the PRDM16 gene to target cells for functional studies or therapeutic purposes. These particles exploit the high transduction efficiency and broad tropism of adenoviruses to enable stable gene expression in both dividing and non-dividing cells. The adenoviral backbone is often modified to ensure safety, such as by deleting early genes (e.g., E1/E3) to prevent replication while maintaining high levels of transgene expression. These particles are valuable tools for studying the role of PRDM16 in adipogenesis, mitochondrial biogenesis, or cancer biology, as well as potential gene therapy strategies for metabolic syndrome.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major public health problem. Sepsis accounts for more than 50% of AKI cases in ICUs. PRD1-BF1-RIZ1 homeodomain protein 16 (PRDM16) can inhibit the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DKD). However, its exact role and regulatory mechanisms in sepsis-induced AKI remain unclear. Here, researcher show that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) trigger PRDM16 expression in Boston University mouse proximal tubule (BUMPT) cells and mouse kidney, respectively. Mechanistically, PRDM16 associates with the promoter region of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor-2 (NRF2) and enhances its expression, which subsequently enhances the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). Notably, these observations were confirmed in human renal tubular epithelial (HK-2) cells. Furthermore, ablation of PRDM16 in the proximal tubules of mouse kidneys suppressed the expression of NRF2 and GPX4, leading to a decreased glutathione (GSH)/oxidized glutathione (GSSG) ratio, increased Fe2+ and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, exacerbated ferroptosis, and progression of AKI. In contrast, PRDM16 knock-in exhibited the opposite effect. Finally, adenovirus (ADV)-PRDM16 plasmid or poly(lactide-glycolic acid) (PLGA)-encapsulated formononetin not only attenuated sepsis-induced AKI, but also liver, heart, and lung damage. In conclusion, PRDM16 prevents sepsis-induced multi-organ damage, including AKI, by inhibiting ferroptosis through the NRF2/GPX4 axis or GPX4.

To investigate the effects of PRDM16 on various organs including the kidney, adenovirus (ADV)-PRDM16 plasmid was injected via tail vein three days before the CLP model, and control mice received saline followed by CLP 18 h later. H&E staining of tissue sections showed that PRDM16 overexpression significantly ameliorated CLP-induced renal tubules (Figure 1A), alveoli (Figure 1B), myocardium (Figure 1C), and liver (Figure 1D) damage. Immunoblot analysis showed that PRDM16 overexpression significantly increased the protein levels of PRDM16, NRF2, and GPX4 in kidney, lung, heart, and liver tissues after sham surgery and CLP, but significantly decreased the protein levels of COX2 and NOX1. In conclusion, PRDM16 overexpression alleviates sepsis-induced multi-organ damage by upregulating the NRF2/GPX4 axis.
