X-Ceptor is a privately held biopharmaceutical company focusing on research in the rapidly developing field of orphan nuclear receptors that serve as the molecular targets for the discovery of novel small molecule pharmaceutical products for the treatment of human diseases. X-Ceptor has developed an integrated approach to drug discovery drawing from their in-house expertise in biology, chemistry and high-throughput screening. X-Ceptor's advantage lies in its understanding of orphan nuclear receptors and their signaling pathways, as well as its proprietary ability to employ these orphan nuclear receptors in transcriptional and biochemical based assays to discover novel therapeutic agents
