Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Induced Intracellular Calcium Assay
Description:  Activity of compounds of the present invention with respect to mGluR1 antagonism was examined by an assay based on measurements of L-glutamate induced intracellular calcium increases using a 96 well plate-based Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR), and CHO cells stably expressing human mGluR1. L-glutamate induced robust calcium responses via human mGluR1 in a concentration-dependent manner and in the low micromolar range.
