Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  S1P3 Agonist Dose-Response Potency Assay
Description:  Source (MLSCN Center Name): The Scripps Research Institute Molecular Screening Center Center Affiliation: The Scripps Research Institute, TSRI Network: Molecular Library Screening Center Network (MLSCN) Proposal number 1 R03 MH076533-01 External Assay ID: (4.3) S1P3_AG_BLA_1536_EC50 Drun1 Name: S1P3 Agonist Dose-Response Potency Assay The biology of S1P receptor subtypes: Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) influences heart rate [1] [2], coronary artery caliber, endothelial integrity, lung epithelial integrity [3] and lymphocyte recirculation [1] [4]-[6] through five related high affinity G-protein coupled receptors [7]. Inhibition of lymphocyte recirculation by nonselective S1P receptor agonists produces clinical immunosuppression preventing transplant rejection, but is associated with transient bradycardia. Understanding the contribution of individual receptors has been limited by the unavailability of selective agonists or antagonists for the 5 receptor subtypes. Separation of recept
