Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Inhibition Assay
Description:  EGFR: The compounds' inhibition of target modulation were determined as follows: NCI-H838 cells were sorted in 96 well plates (20000 cells/well) with the DMEM medium containing 1% FBS overnight and then treated with tested compounds at a series of concentrations (3 μM, 0.3 μM, 0.1 μM, 0.03 μM, 0.01 μM, 0.003 μM, 0.001 μM, 0.0001 μM). The plates were incubated for 4 h at 37° C. with 5% CO2 followed by the stimulation of recombinant hEGF (100 ng/ml for 10 Min, RD, Cat #236-EG) and then the EGFR (Y1068) phosphorylation level of cells in each well were measured with MSD Kit (MULTI-SPOT 96 4-Spot HB Prototype EGFR Triplex ANALYTES: pEGFR(Tyr1068), pEGFR(Tyr1173), Total EGFR (Cat # N45ZB-1). The assay is a electrochemiluminescent method (MESO SCALE DISCOVERY) for determining both phosphorylated and total EGFR of cells with an MSD SECTOR Imager and then the ratio of p-EGFR/total EGFR can be generated by the machine. The percentage of inhibition was used the formula: % inhibition=100×[1−(ratio of sample well−ratio of Min ctrl well)/ (ratio of Max Ratio of Min ctrl well)]. The IC50 values were further calculated as the compounds concentration required for 50% inhibition in best-fit curves using Prism GraphPad 7.0 or Microsoft Xlfit software.
