Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Lance cAMP Assay
Description:  Determination of antagonistic activity of compounds of general formula 1 towards 5-HT6 receptors. Compounds of general formula 1 were tested for their ability to prevent 5-HT6 receptor activation by serotonin. HEK 293 cells (cells of human embryo's kidney) with artificially expressed 5-HT6 receptor, activation of which by serotonin leads to increasing the concentration of intracellular cAMP were used. The content of intracellular cAMP was determined using reagent kit LANCE cAMP (PerkinElmer) according to the method described by the manufacturer of the kit [http://las.perkinelmer.com/content/Manuals/MAN_LANCEcAMP384KitUser.pdf]. Effectiveness of compounds was estimated by their ability to reduce the content of intracellular cAMP induced by serotonin.
