Ntrans
NTrans Technologies BV was
founded in 2015 based on a
proprietary platform technology for the intracellular delivery
of bioactive molecules developed at the Hubrecht Institute
of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences. The iTOP
intracellular delivery technology is based on a combination
of small molecule compounds which forces the uptake of
large gulps of extracellular fluid (containing the bioactive
molecules) by the cell. Once inside, the vesicles release their
content into the cytoplasm, where the bioactive molecules can
exert their therapeutic action. Our goal is to further support
distribution and commercialization of the iTOP technology
for the research community and to develop a therapeutic
platform for iTOP based delivery of bioactive molecules. The
NTrans mission is to translate the unique iTOP technology
into revolutionary new therapies for the treatment of genetic
diseases and cancer.

The iTOP intracellular delivery technology is based on a combination of small molecule compounds which forces the uptake of large gulps of extracellular fluid (containing the bioactive molecules) by the cell. Once inside, the vesicles release their content into the cytoplasm, where the bioactive molecules can exert their therapeutic action. Our goal is to further support distribution and commercialization of the iTOP technology for the research community and to develop a therapeutic platform for iTOP based delivery of bioactive molecules. The NTrans mission is to translate the unique iTOP technology into revolutionary new therapies for the treatment of genetic diseases and cancer. www.ntranstechnologies.com The CRISPR & Precision Genome Editing Congress is a dedicated to enhance the very latest applications of CRISPR.
