Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA)
Description:  Table B4: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were performed to measure phosphorylated EGFR levels using A431 cells (10% FBS). A431 (1.0*104cells/40 μl/well) cells were seeded in 384 well. Compounds were dissolved in DMSO, serially diluted in DMSO and then were added, mixed, and incubated for 4 hours at 37° C., 500 CO2. Following the 4-hours incubation, cells were stimulated for 10 minutes with EGF (Invitrogen, cat #PHG0311) at a final concentration of 30 ng/mL in the incubator. The media was aspirated and cells were lysed in 10 μL lysis buffer with protease and phosphatase inhibitors (PerkinElmer, cat #ALSU-PEGFR-A50K). The plates were placed on a shaker for 5 minutes and then incubated for 30 min at 4° C. for complete lysis. The lysate was transferred to an Optiplate (Perkin Elmer, cat #6007290). Acceptor mix (PerkinElmer, cat #ALSU-PEGFR-A50K) was prepared just before use and 5 μL was dispensed to all the wells, followed by a 1.5-2 h incubation at room temperature in dark. The donor mix (PerkinElmer, cat #ALSU-PEGFR-A50K) was prepared under low light conditions prior to use and 5 μl of donor mix was added to all the wells under subdued lighting or green filters. The plates were placed on a shaker for 5 min, sealed, and incubated overnight at room temperature in dark. Plates were read on the Envision (PerkinElmer) using standard AlphaLISA settings. The percentage of inhibition on EGFR phosphorylation was calculated following equation: % Inhibition=100×(LumHC−LumSample)/(LumHC−LumLC). The low and high controls (LC/HC) are generated from lysate from wells with cells treated with DMSO or 10 mM Staurosporine (BioAustralis, cat #BIA-S1086), respectively.
