Assay: Human Vanin-1 Enzyme Assay 3: The vanin-1 protein was prepared in-house from a construct expressing the extracellular domain of human vanin-1 (GenBank ID NM_004666) preceded N-terminally by the honey bee melittin signal peptide, a GSG linker sequence, a His6X tag and a FLAG tag. The secreted, soluble enzyme was purified from the conditioned medium from a CHO cell line stably expressing the resulting protein. Enzyme purification was performed through sequential Ni NTA and size-exclusion chromatography steps.On the day of the assay, dose response plates were prepared by diluting the inhibitors in DMSO at compound concentration 100-fold the final in-assay concentration. Concentration series were prepared by serially diluting in DMSO in a two-fold series for a total of 11 data points. Intermediate compound plates containing compound in 10% DMSO were then created by diluting the compounds 10-fold in assay buffer consisting of 50 mM Tris-HCl pH=8.0, 50 mM KCl, 0.005% Brij-35 and 1.5 mM cysteamine. To begin the assay 3 μL were transferred from the intermediate compound plate to the assay plate.A working solution of human vanin-1 was prepared by diluting the enzyme stock to 2.5 nM in assay buffer. Next, 24 μL of the vanin-1 working solution were transferred to the assay plate. The enzyme reaction was then initiated by the addition of 3 μL of 100 μM pantetheine 7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin prepared in 5 uM acetic acid. The final concentrations in the assay were 2 nM human vanin-1 and 10 uM substrate. The final concentration of DMSO was 1%. The assay plates were incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes and before they were read on a Tecan Safire using a 405 nm excitation wavelength and a 505 nm emission wavelength for detection.

Assay: Binding Assay (ELISA): The ELISA assay was performed in streptavidin coated plates which were preincubated with 200 ul per well of 1 μg ml−1 biotinylated IP3 peptide. The plates were ready to use for MDM2 binding after washing the plate with PBS.Compounds and control solutions in DMSO aliquoted in 96-well plates were pre-incubated in a final 2.5-5% (v/v) DMSO concentration at room temperature (for example 20C.) for 20 min with 190 ul aliquots of optimized concentrations of in vitro translated MDM2, before transfer of the MDM2-compound mixture to the b-IP3 streptavidin plates, and incubation at 4C. for 90 min. After washing three times with PBS to remove unbound MDM2, each well was incubated at 20C. for 1 hour with a TBS-Tween (50 mM Tris pH7.5; 150 mM NaCl; 0.05% Tween 20 nonionic detergent) buffered solution of primary mouse monoclonal anti-MDM2 antibody (Ab-5, Calbiochem, used at a 1/10000 or 1/200 dilution depending on the antibody stock solution used), then washed three times with TBS-Tween before incubation for 45 mins at 20C. with a TBS-Tween buffered solution of a goat-anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugated secondary antibody (used at 1/20000 or 1/2000 depending on the antibody stock solution). The unbound secondary antibody was removed by washing three times with TBS-Tween. The bound HRP activity was measured by enhanced chemiluminesence (ECL, Amersham Biosciences) using the oxidation of the diacylhydrazide substrate, luminol, to generate a quantifiable light signal. The percentage of MDM2 inhibition at a given concentration is calculated as the [1−(RLU detected in the compound treated sample−RLU negative DMSO control)÷(RLU of DMSO positive and negative controls)]x100 or as the (RLU detected in the compound treated sample ÷ RLU of DMSO controls)x100.

Assay: RET Enzyme Assay: Compounds of Formula I were screened for their ability to inhibit wildtype and V804M mutant RET kinase using CisBio's HTRF KinEASE-TK assay technology. Briefly, N-terminal GST tagged recombinant human RET cytoplasmic domain (aa 658-end) from Eurofins (0.25 nM RET; Catalog No. 14-570M) or N-terminal GST tagged recombinant human V804M mutant RET cytoplasmic domain (aa 658-end) from Millipore (0.25 nM enzyme; Catalog No. 14-760) was incubated with 250 nM TK-substrate biotin (CisBio, part of Catalog No. 62TK0PEC) and 1 mM ATP along with test compound in a buffer consisting of 25 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.01% Triton X-100, and 2% DMSO in a volume of 8 μL. Compounds were typically prepared in a threefold serial dilution in DMSO and added to the assay to give the appropriate final concentration. After a 30-minute incubation at 22° C., the reaction was quenched by adding 8 μL of quench solution containing 31.25 nM Sa-XL665 and 1×TK-ab-Cryptate in HTRF detection buffer (all from CisBio, part of Cat. No. 62TK0PEC). After a 1 hour incubation at 22° C., the extent of reaction was determined using a PerkinElmer EnVision multimode plate reader via HTRF dual wavelength detection, and the percent of control (POC) was calculated using a ratiometric emission factor. 100 POC was determined using no test compounds and 0 POC was determined using pre-quenched control reactions. The POC values were fit to a 4 parameter logistic curve, and the IC50 is defined as the concentration of inhibitor at which the POC equals 50 for the fitted curve.

Assay: In Vitro Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase (ACC) Inhibition Assay: An exemplary procedure for the in vitro ACC inhibition assay, which can be used to determine the inhibitory action of compounds of the invention toward either ACC1 or ACC2, follows. The ADP-Glo Kinase Assay kit from Promega was used. The ADP-Glo Kinase Assay is a luminescent ADP detection assay to measure enzymatic activity by quantifying the amount of ADP produced during an enzyme reaction. The assay is performed in two steps; first, after the enzyme reaction, an equal volume of ADP-Glo Reagent is added to terminate the reaction and deplete the remaining ATP. Second, the Kinase Detection Reagent is added to simultaneously convert ADP to ATP and allow the newly synthesized ATP to be measured using a luciferase/luciferin reaction. Luminescence can be correlated to ADP concentrations by using an ATP-to-ADP conversion curve. The detailed procedure is as follows. 50 μL of the compound being tested (600 uM in DMSO) was added to a 384-well dilution plate. The compound was diluted 1:3 in succession in DMSO for each row for 11 wells. 0.5 μL ACC2 working solution was added to 384-well white Optiplate assay plate. 0.5 μL diluted compound solution in each column from step 2 to assay plate, each row containing 2 replicates. For the last 2 rows, add 0.5 μL negative control (DMSO) in one row and 0.5 μL positive control (compound 1-97) in the other. The plates were incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. 5 μL substrate working solution was added to each well to initiate reaction. Final ACC2 reaction concentrations consist of: 5 nM ACC2, 20 μM ATP, 20 μM acetyl-CoA, 12 mM NaHCO3, 0.01% Brij35, 2 mM DTT, 5% DMSO, test compound concentrations: 30 μM, 10 μM, 3.33 μM, 1.11 μM, 0.37 μM, 0.123 μM, 0.0411 μM, 0.0137 μM, 0.00457 μM, 0.00152 μM, and 0.00051 μM. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 60 minutes. 10 μL ADP glo reagent was added. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 40 minutes. 20 μL kinase detection reagent was added. Plates were incubated at room temperature for 40 minutes, then read on a Perkin Elmer EnVision 2104 plate reader for luminescence as Relative Light Units (RLU).Data for each concentration, as well as the positive and negative controls were averaged, and the standard deviation calculated. Percent inhibition was calculated by the formula: 100×(average negative control-compound)/(average negative control-average positive control). The IC50 for each compound was calculated by fitting the data with a non-linear regress ion equation: Y=Bottom+(Top−Bottom)/(1+10((Log IC50−X* HillSlope)), where X is the log of compound concentration and Y is percent inhibition.As shown in the following table, tested compounds of t

Assay: RORgammat ThermoFluor Assay: For the RORγt construct used in the ThermoFluor® assay, numbering for the nucleotide sequences was based on the reference sequence for human RORγt, transcript variant 2, NCBI Accession: NM_001001523.1 (SEQ ID NO:1). Nucleotides 850-1635 (SEQ ID NO:2) coding for the wild type human RORγt ligand binding domain (RORγt LBD) were cloned into the pHIS1 vector, a modified pET E. coli expression vector (Accelagen, San Diego), containing an in-frame N-terminal His-tag and a TurboTEV protease cleavage site (ENLYFQG, SEQ ID NO:3) upstream of the cloned insert sequence. The amino acid sequence for the RORγt construct used in the Thermofluor® assay is shown as SEQ ID NO:4.ThermoFluor® experiments were carried out using instruments owned by Janssen Research and Discovery, L.L.C. through its acquisition of 3-Dimensional Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 1,8-ANS (Invitrogen) was used as a fluorescent dye. Protein and compound solutions are dispensed into black 384-well polypropylene PCR microplates (Abgene) and overlayed with silicone oil (1 μL, Fluka, type DC 200) to prevent evaporation.Bar-coded assay plates are robotically loaded onto a thermostatically controlled PCR-type thermal block and then heated at a typical ramp-rate of 1° C./min for all experiments. Fluorescence was measured by continuous illumination with UV light (Hamamatsu LC6) supplied via fiber optic and filtered through a band-pass filter (380-400 nm; >6 OD cutoff). Fluorescence emission of the entire 384-well plate was detected by measuring light intensity using a CCD camera (Sensys, Roper Scientific) filtered to detect 500±25 nm, resulting in simultaneous and independent readings of all 384 wells. Images were collected at each temperature, and the sum of the pixel intensity in a given area of the assay plate was recorded versus temperature. Reference wells contained RORγt without compounds, and the assay conditions were as follows:0.065 mg/mL RORγt60 M 1,8-ANS100 mM Hepes, pH 7.010 mM NaCl2.5 mM GSH0.002% Tween-20Project compounds were arranged in a pre-dosed mother plate (Greiner Bio-one) wherein compounds are serially diluted in 100% DMSO by 1:2 from a high concentration of 10 mM over 12 columns within a series (column 12 is a reference well containing DMSO, no compound). The compounds were robotically dispensed directly into assay plates (1x=46 nL) using a Hummingbird capillary liquid handling instrument (Digilab). Following compound dispense, protein and dye in buffer was added to achieve the final assay volume of 3 μL, followed by 1 μL of silicone oil.

Assay: Biochemical Assay: Assays for biochemical and cell based activity are known in the art, for example, as described in PCT publication WO 2007/002433, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference as it relates to such assays. For example, the biochemical activity IC50 values are determined with respect to inhibition of B-Raf kinase activity, c-Raf-1 kinase activity, or B-Raf V600E kinase activity, where inhibition of phosphorylation of a peptide substrate is measured as a function of compound concentration. Compounds to be tested are diluted in dimethyl sulfoxide to a concentration of 0.1 mM. These are serially diluted 15 μL into 30 μL of dimethyl sulfoxide seven times in 96 well plates for a total of 8 dilution points, and for each dilution point 1 μL is added to a well of an assay plate. Plates are prepared such that each well in a 384 well plate contains 1 μL of compound in 10 μL volume with 0.1 ng Raf enzyme (i.e. any of B-Raf, c-Raf-1 or B-Raf V600E, Upstate Biotechnology or prepared by methods known to one of skill in the art), 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.0, 50 mM NaCl, 2 mM MgCl2, 1 mM MnCl2, 0.01% Tween-20, 1 mM DTT, and 100 nM biotin-MEK1 as substrate. The reaction is started with addition of 10 μL of 200 μM ATP (i.e. final 100 μM ATP). After incubation of the kinase reaction for 45 minutes at room temperature, 5 μL/well of Stop Solution is added (25 mM Hepes pH 7.5, 100 mM EDTA, 0.01% BSA with donor beads (Streptavidin coated beads, Perkin Elmer), acceptor beads (Protein A coated, Perkin Elmer), and anti phosphor MEK1/2 antibody (CellSignal), each at final concentration 10 μg/mL). The plates are incubated for 3 hours at room temperature and read on Envision reader (Perkin Elmer). Phosphorylation of Mek1 results in binding of the anti-phosphor-MEK1/2 antibody and association of the donor and acceptor beads such that signal correlates with kinase activity.

Assay: Enzymatic Assay: TDO2: Recombinant human TDO comprising amino acids 19-407 with a N-terminal hexahistidine tag expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity is incubated at a final concentration of 15 nM in assay buffer consisting of 75 mM phosphate buffer at pH7 supplemented with 100 μM ascorbic acid, 50 U/ml Catalase, 0.01% BSA, and 0.01% Tween 20 (protocol modified from Seegers et al, JBS 2014). Example compounds are serially diluted in DMSO, further diluted in phosphate buffer, and added to the reaction mixture at final concentrations ranging from 10 μM to 0.5 nM. The final DMSO concentration is 0.6%. Following a pre-incubation of 30 minutes at RT, the reaction is started by the addition of L-tryptophan at a final concentration of 200 μM in assay buffer. After 30 minutes of incubation at RT, 3 μL of the reaction mixture are transferred to a 384 deep well plate containing 25 μL of deionized water. 100 μl of 200 nM L-Tryptophan-(indole-d5) in cold 100% methanol are added followed by a 10 minutes centrifugation at 4,000 rpm at 4° C. An additional 75 μL of deionized water are then added and followed by a 10 minutes centrifugation at 4,000 rpm at 4° C. The product of the reaction N′-Formylkynurenine (NFK) is quantified by LCMS and normalized to the L-Tryptophan-(indole-d5) signal. Samples with 0.6% DMSO (0% effect) and a TDO/IDO inhibitor (100% effect) are used as control samples to set the parameters for the non-linear regression necessary for the determination of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) for each compound.

Assay: Inhibition Reporter Assay: HEK-Blue-cells (Invivogen) overexpressing human TLR7, TLR8 or TLR9 receptors were used for screening inhibitors of these receptors using an inducible SEAP (secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) reporter gene under the control of the IFN-β minimal promoter fused to five NF-κB and AP-1-binding sites. Briefly, cells are seeded into Greiner 384 well plates (15000 cells per well for TLR7, 20,000 for TLR8 and 25,000 for TLR9) and then treated with test compounds in DMSO to yield a final dose response concentration range of 0.05 nM-50 μM. After a 30 minute compound pre-treatment at room temperature, the cells are then stimulated with a TLR7 ligand (gardiquimod at a final concentration of 7.5 μM), TLR8 ligand (R848 at a final concentration of 15.9 μM) or TLR9 ligand (ODN2006 at a final concentration of 5 nM) to activate NF-κB and AP-1 which induce the production of SEAP. After a 22 hour incubation at 37° C., 5% CO2, SEAP levels are determined with the addition of HEK-Blue Detection reagent (Invivogen), a cell culture medium that allows for detection of SEAP, according to manufacturer's specifications.

Assay: Inhibition Assay: Class I PI3-Ks can be either purchased (p110α/p85α, p110β/p85α, p110δ/p85α from Upstate, and p110γ from Sigma) or expressed as previously described (Knight et al., 2004). IC50 values are measured using either a standard TLC assay for lipid kinase activity (described below) or a high-throughput membrane capture assay. Kinase reactions are performed by preparing a reaction mixture containing kinase, inhibitor (2% DMSO final concentration), buffer (25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2), and freshly sonicated phosphatidylinositol (100 μg/ml). Reactions are initiated by the addition of ATP containing 10 μCi of γ-32P-ATP to a final concentration 10 or 100 μM and allowed to proceed for 5 minutes at room temperature. For TLC analysis, reactions are then terminated by the addition of 105 l 1N HCl followed by 160 μl CHCl3:MeOH (1:1). The biphasic mixture is vortexed, briefly centrifuged, and the organic phase is transferred to a new tube using a gel loading pipette tip precoated with CHCl3. This extract is spotted on TLC plates and developed for 3-4 hours in a 65:35 solution of n-propanol:1M acetic acid. The TLC plates are then dried, exposed to a phosphorimager screen (Storm, Amersham), and quantitated. For each compound, kinase activity is measured at 10-12 inhibitor concentrations representing two-fold dilutions from the highest concentration tested (typically, 200 μM). For compounds showing significant activity, IC50 determinations are repeated two to four times, and the reported value is the average of these independent measurements.

Assay: Binding Assay : The binding of potential ligands to RORγ is measured by competition with [3H]25-hydroxycholesterol (Perkin Elmer NET674250UC) using a scintillation proximity assay (SPA). The ligand binding domain of human RORγ (A262-S507) with an N-terminal His tag is expressed in E. coli and purified using nickel affinity chromatography. 15 μg/well RORγ (A262-S507) is incubated with test compound at varying concentrations in 3-fold serial dilution, with final concentrations ranging from 16.6 μM to 0.28 nM, for 10 min at rt in PBS buffer (Invitrogen #14190-144) containing 0.5% fatty acid free BSA (Gemini Bio-Products, Cat. #700-107P) and 0.1% glycerol (Sigma Cat # G5516). 10 nM of [3H] 25-hydroxycholesterol is then added, and the reaction is incubated for 10 min. 10 mg/mL of Copper-His Tag-PVT beads (Perkin Elmer cat # RPNQ0095) are added, and the mixture is incubated for 60 min. The reaction is read on a TopCount Microplate scintillation plate reader (Perkin Elmer). The competition data of the test compound over a range of concentrations was plotted as percentage inhibition of radioligand specifically bound in the absence of test compound (percent of total signal). After correcting for non-specific binding, IC50 values were determined.

Assay: Enzymatic Inhibition Assay: 11-point dosing series were made for each compound by serially diluting 1:3 or 1:4 in DMSO, with point 12 being a DMSO control. From the serial dilution plates, sample was transferred to a 384 wells assay plate (#781280, Greiner, Monroe, N.C.) using Labcyte Echo (Sunnyvale, Calif.), or Biosero ATS (San Diego, Calif.). The compounds were tested in duplicate. Column 12 was used for positive controls, and column 24 contained negative controls with no enzyme added. A compound from our internal collection, with inhibitory activity for JAK isoforms, was used as a reference compound. The final concentration of DMSO was ≤0.25% in a 20 μL reaction. Assay conditions for each of the proteins are summarized in Table 3. The enzyme reaction was initiated by the addition of 10 μL of 2× enzyme and ATP mixture to 10 μL of 2× substrate solution prepared in reaction buffer (50 mM MOPS pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA, 2 mM DTT, 0.002% Tween-20). The Tyk2 enzyme was pre-incubated with 2 mM ATP for 30 min prior to the reaction initiation. Immediately after the addition of the enzyme to the reaction mixture, the plate was centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 1 minute and incubated at 25° C. for 45 minutes for JAK 3 and 90 minutes for JAK1, JAK2 and Tyk2. The reaction was quenched by the addition of 20 μL of 0.5% TFA containing 0.15 μM of internal standard peptide using Multidrop Combi reagent dispenser (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, Mass.). Several wells in column 24 were typically used for the product standard curve. After the quench, the assay plate was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 3 minutes and sealed with pierceable aluminum foil (Cat #06644-001, Agilent) using a PlateLoc (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, Calif.). The plates then were transferred on to the RapidFire for the MS analysis. Compound inhibition was assessed by a decrease of the phosphorylated product levels in sample wells compared to the non-inhibited enzyme reaction.

Assay: Biological for hJAK2: Enzymatic activity of hJAK2 was measured using a LANCE homogeneous time resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) assay that monitors enzyme dependent phosphorylation of a biotinylated serine/threonine peptide substrate (PTK). An increase in the amount of phopshorylated peptide results in an increase in TR-FRET signal. hJAK2 was expressed and purified as full length recombinant proteins. Detection reagents for the assay were purchased from PerkinElmer. hJAK2 enzyme was assayed under initial rate conditions in the presence of 2×Km ATP (30 μM) and 1 μM peptide, 50 mM Tris-Cl (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 1mM dithiothreitol, 0.01% BSA, 0.05% (v/v) DMSO at the following concentration of enzyme: hJAK2 at 0.3 nM. After an assay reaction time of 40 minutes at 25° C., reactions were terminated with EDTA and LANCE Detection Buffer.Amount of phosphorylated peptide was determined by the addition of 20 nM SA-APC and 1 nM europium cryptate labeled anti-phospho PTK monoclonal antibody PY66 and the resulting TR-FRET signal was recorded on an Envision plate reader (Ex: 340 nm; Em: 615/665 nm; 100 μs delay and 200 μs read window). Data was normalized based on a positive (1 μM Staurosporine) and negative (DMSO) controls and IC50 values calculated from the fit of the doseresponse curves to a four-parameter equation. All IC50 values represent geometric mean values of a minimum of four determinations. These assays generally produced results within 3-fold of the reported mean.

Assay: Biochemical HTRF Assay Protocol: The ability of compounds to inhibit the activity of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, and Tyk2 was measured using a recombinant purified GST-tagged catalytic domain for each enzyme (Invitrogen JAK1 #M4290, JAK2 #M4290, JAK3 #M4290, Tyk2 #M4290) in an HTRF format biochemical assay. The reactions employed a common peptide substrate, LCB-EQEDEPEGDYFEWLW-NH2 (in-house). The basic assay protocol is as follows: First, 250 nL of diluted compounds in DMSO were dispensed into the wells of a dry 384-well Black plate (Greiner #781076) using a Labcyte Echo 555 acoustic dispenser. Subsequent reagent additions employed an Agilent Bravo. Next, 18 μL of 1.11× enzyme and 1.11× substrate in 1× assay buffer (Invitrogen kinase buffer #PV3189, 2 mM DTT, 0.05% BSA) were added to the wells and shaken and then preincubated for 30 minutes at room temperature to allow compound binding to equilibrate. After equilibration, 2 μL of 10×ATP in 1× assay buffer was added to initiate the kinase reaction and the plates were shaken and then incubated at room temperature for 120 minutes. At the end of the incubation, 20 μL of 2× stop buffer (streptavidin-Dylight 650 (Thermo #84547B/100 mL), Eu-tagged pY20 antibody (Perkin Elmer #AD0067), EDTA, HEPES, and Triton) was added to quench the reaction. Plates were shaken and centrifuged and then incubated 60 minutes at room temperature and then read on a Perkin Elmer Envision (λex=337 nm, λem=665 and 615 nm, TRF delay time=20 μs). HTRF signal=10,000*665 nm reading/615 nm reading. After normalization to untreated controls, the percent inhibition of the HTRF signal at each compound concentration was calculated.

Assay: AlphaScreen Assay: In AlphaScreen, when the donor and acceptor beads are close in proximity, a series of photochemical events will give rise to a fluorescent signal upon light activation. Here we use biotinylated poly-(Glu, Tyr) 4:1 as the kinase substrate, streptavidin-coated donor beads and anti-phosphortyrosine antibody PY100-coated acceptor beads. Upon phosphorylation, the peptide substrate can bind to both donor and acceptor beads, thus gives rise to fluorescence. Compounds, ATP, biotinylated poly-(Glu, Tyr) and kinases are mixed in a volume of 20 μL for 1 hr at ambient temperature using Greiner 384-well white clear bottom medium binding plates. Then 10 uL solution containing 15-30 mg/mL AlphaScreen beads, 75 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 300 mM NaCl, 120 mM EDTA, 0.3% BSA and 0.03% Tween-20 is added to each well.

Assay: TGF-beta 1 Assay: Compound Screening: Each compound was dissolved in DMSO as a 10 mM stock and used to prepare compound source plates. Serial dilution (1:2, 11-point dose-response curves from 10 μM to 1.87 nM) and compound transfer was performed using the ECHO 550 (Labcyte, Sunnyvale, Calif.) into 384-well clear bottom assay plates (Greiner Bio-One) with appropriate DMSO backfill for a final DMSO concentration of 0.1%. LL29 cells were plated at 1,500 cells/well in 80 μl/well F12 medium supplemented with 1% Fetal Bovine Serum. One hour after addition of the cells, TGF-β1 (Peprotech; 20 ng/mL) was added to the plates to induce fibrosis (ref. 1 and 2 above). Wells treated with TGF-β1 and containing DMSO were used as controls. Cells were incubated at 37° C. and 5% CO2 for 4 days. Following incubation for 4 days, SYTOX green nucleic acid stain (Life Technologies [Thermo Fisher Scientific]) was added to the wells at a final concentration of 1 uM and incubated at room temperature for 30 min. Cells were then fixed using 4% formaldehyde (Electron Microscopy Sciences), washed 3 times with PBS followed by blocking and permeabilization using 3% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA; Sigma) and 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma) in PBS. Cells were then stained with antibody specific to α-smooth muscle actin (aSMA; Abcam) (ref. 1 and 2 above) in 3% Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA; Sigma) and 0.3% Triton X-100 (Sigma) in PBS, and incubated overnight at 4° C. Cells were then washed 3 times with PBS, followed by incubation with Alexa Flor-647 conjugated secondary antibody (Life Technologies [Thermo Fisher Scientific]) and DAPI at room temperature for 1 hour. Cells were then washed 3 times with PBS and plates were sealed for imaging. αSMA staining was imaged by excitation at 630 nm and emission at 665 nm and quantified using the Compartmental Analysis program on the CellInsight CX5 (Thermo Scientific). Dead or apoptotic cells were excluded from analysis based on positive SYTOX green staining. % of total cells positive for αSMA were counted in each well and normalized to the average of 11 wells treated with TGF-β1 on the same plate using Dotmatics' Studies Software. The normalized averages (fold change over untreated) of 3 replicate wells for each compound concentration were used to create dose-responses curves and EC50 values were calculated using non-linear regression curve fit in the Dotmatics' Studies Software.
