Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Biological Activity Assay
Description:  Experimental Method:PathHunter CHO-K1 CRTH2 β-arrestin cells (DiscoverX, catalogue number 93-0291C2) grew under standard conditions, and were inoculated into a white-wall 384-well microplate at a density of 5,000 cells/well. 20 μL of Cell Plating Reagent 1 was used in each well. Before the test, the cells were incubated overnight at 37° C./5% CO2. A test compound was serially diluted in DMSO with a dilution factor of 3-fold to give 8 concentrations of the test compound. Shortly before the test, the serially diluted test compound was further diluted with the test buffer to 5 times of the test concentration. 5 μL of the further diluted test compound was added to the cells, and the cells were incubated for 30 min at 37° C. The concentration of the solvent was 1%. 5 μL of 6×EC80 agonist (PGD2) buffer was added to the cells, and the cells were incubated for 90 min at 37° C. Measured signals were generated by one-time addition of 15 μL (50% v/v) of PathHunter detection mixture reagent and subsequent one-hour incubation. The microplate was read through the chemiluminescent signals of PerkinElmer Envision reader. Biological activity of the test compound was analyzed by CBIS data analysis suite (ChemInnovation, CA), and was denoted as IC50 value.
