Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  In Vitro Inhibitory Activity Assay
Description:  Experimental Purpose:Determination of the IC50 value of the inhibitory activity of the compound against uric acid reabsorption by the HEK293 cell line stably transfected with the URAT-1 (uric acid transporter) gene.Background Introduction:Gout is a progressive disease induced by abnormal elevation of the uric acid level in blood. The coding URAT-1 gene exists in uric acid transporter in renal tubules. Small molecule compounds can promote uric acid excretion by inhibiting the function of this protein, thereby preventing gout attacks.
