Target: Glutamate receptor ionotropic, NMDA 2B (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q13224
Assay: Standard cell-based calcium flux assay: NMDA receptors are ion channels that are highly permeable to Ca2+ ions, rendering it possible to monitor NMDA receptor function using cell-based calcium flux assay. In this assay, co-agonists glutamate and glycine are added to cells heterologously expressing human GluN1/GluN2B NMDA receptors to initiate cellular Ca2+ influx. The time course of the changes in intracellular calcium is measured using a fluorescent dye and a FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader) device.Twenty four hours before measurements, the expression of the NMDA receptors in the stable cell line is induced with Tet-On inducible system in the presence of a non-selective NMDA receptor blocker. On the day of the experiment, cell culture media is carefully washed and the cells are loaded with Calcium 5 Dye Kit (Molecular Devices) in dye loading buffer containing 137 mM NaCl, 4 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2, 0.5 mM MgCl2 (standard assay) or 1.5 mM MgCl2 (HTS assay), 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4. After 1 h incubation at the room temperature, the dye is washed away with the assay buffer (137 mM NaCl (standard assay) or 150 mM (HTS assay), 4 mM KCl (standard assay) or 3 mM (HTS assay), 2 mM CaCl2, 0.01 mM EDTA, 10 mM HEPES and 5 mM D-glucose; pH 7.4) In the FLIPR TETRA reader, various concentrations of the test compounds are added to the cells for 5 min while fluorescence is monitored to detect potential agonist activity. Next, co-agonists, glutamate and glycine are added for another 5 minutes. The concentration of glutamate corresponding to EC40 (standard assay) is used to maximize the assay's signal window and ability to detect NMDA receptor antagonists and negative allosteric modulators. A saturating concentration (10 μM) of glycine is also present in the assay. A non-selective NMDA receptor antagonist, (+)MK-801 is used as a positive control for antagonist activity. The fluorescent signal in the presence of test compounds is quantified and normalized to the signal defined by the appropriate control wells.

Target: Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M1 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P11229
Assay: Cell-Based Functional Assay of Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor: For high throughput measurement of agonist-evoked increases in intracellular calcium, CHO-K1 cells stably expressing muscarinic receptors were plated in growth medium lacking G418 and hygromycin at 15,000 cells/20 μL/well in Greiner 384-well black-walled, tissue culture (TC)-treated, clear-bottom plates (VWR). Cells were incubated overnight at 37° C. and 5% CO2. The next day, cells were washed using an ELX 405 (BioTek) with four washes (80 μL) of assay buffer then aspirated to 20 μL. Next, 20 μL of 16 μM Fluo-4/acetoxymethyl ester (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, Calif.) prepared as a 2.3 mM stock in DMSO and mixed in a 1:1 ratio with 10% (w/v) Pluronic F-127 and diluted in assay buffer was added to the wells and the cell plates were incubated for 50 min at 37° C. and 5% CO2. Dye was removed by washing with the ELX 405 (four 80 μL washes of assay buffer) then aspirated to 20 μL. Compound master plates were formatted in an 11 point CRC format (1:3 dilutions) in 100% DMSO with a starting concentration of 10 mM using the BRAVO liquid handler (Agilent). Test compound CRCs were then transferred to daughter plates (240 nL) using the Echo acoustic plate reformatter (Labcyte, Sunnyvale, Calif.) and then diluted into assay buffer (40 μL) to a 2× stock using a Thermo Fisher Combi (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, Mass.).Calcium flux was measured using the Functional Drug Screening System (FDSS) 6000 (Hamamatsu Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) as an increase in the fluorescent static ratio. Compounds were applied to cells (20 μL, 2×) using the automated system of the FDSS 6000 at 4 s into the 300 s protocol and the data were collected at 1 Hz. At 144 s into the 300s protocol, 10 μL of an EC20 concentration of the muscarinic receptor agonist acetylcholine was added (5×), followed by the addition of 12 μL an EC8O concentration of acetylcholine at the 230 s time point (5×). Agonist activity was analyzed as a concentration-dependent increase in calcium mobilization upon compound addition. Positive allosteric modulator activity was analyzed as a concentration-dependent increase in the EC20 acetylcholine response. Antagonist activity was analyzed as a concentration-dependent decrease in the EC80 acetylcholine response. Concentration-response curves were generated using a four-parameter logistical equation in XLfit curve fitting software (IDBS, Bridgewater, N.J.) for Excel (Microsoft, Redmond, Wash.) or Prism (GraphPad Software, Inc., San Diego, Calif.).

Biochemistry. 1994, 33, 14393-14399) was used as the substrate for Factor D (104 mM). Hydrolysis of this compound by Factor D liberated a free sulfhydryl group which is then reacted with 5,5′-dithiobis(2nitrobenzoic acid) producing an intense yellow color (Habeeb, A. F. S. A. Reaction of protein sulfhydryl groups with Ellman's Reagent. Methods in Enzymol. 1976, 25, 457-464.). The assays were performed in 96 well microtiter plates and rates of hydrolysis were monitored at 405 nm on a Biotek Synergy H1 plate reader. Hydrolysis rates were reported as change in mOD/min. The assay was conducted in 100 mM HEPES, 500 mM NaCl, pH 7.5 containing 10% DMSO in a final volume of 50 μL per well.

Competition binding experiments in 96 well polypropylene plates were performed using [3H]-(1-(5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-2-methyl-thiazol-4-yl)-1-((S)-2-(5-phenyl-(1,3,4)oxadiazol-2-ylmethyl)-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-methanone) (Moraveck Corporation, specific activity=35.3 Ci/mmol), diluted to a 10 nM concentration in PBS (4 nM final). Compounds were solubilized in 100% DMSO (Acros Organics, Cat. #61042-1000) and tested over a range of 7 concentrations (from 0.1 nM to 10 μM). The final concentration of DMSO in the reactions is equal to or less than 0.1%. Total and nonspecific binding was determined in the absence and presence of 10 μM almorexant. The total volume of each reaction is 200 μL (20 μL of diluted compounds, 80 μL of [3H]-(1-(5-(2-fluoro-phenyl)-2-methyl-thiazol-4-yl)-1-((S)-2-(5-phenyl-(1,3,4)oxadiazol-2-ylmethyl)-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-methanone) diluted in PBS and 100 μL of the cell suspension). Reactions were run for 60 min at room temperature and terminated by filtration through GF/C filter plates (PerkinElmer, Cat. #6005174) presoaked in 0.3% polyethylenimine using the cell harvester (PerkinElmer Filtermate). The plates were washed 3 times by aspirating 30 ml PBS through the plates. Plates were dried in 55° C. oven for 60 min, scintillation fluid was added, and the radioactivity was counted on a Topcount (Packard).

Assay: Enzyme Inhibition Assay: Method 2: This method follows the same steps as Method 1 above, but utilises a higher concentration of the p38 MAPKα protein (2.5 uL of 200 ng/mL protein instead of 2.5 uL of 80 ng/mL protein) for mixing with the test compound (tested at either 1 ug/mL, 0.1 ug/mL, 0.01 ug/mL or 0.001 ug/mL). Method 1: The inhibitory activities of test compounds against the p38 MAPKα isoform (MAPK14: Invitrogen) are evaluated indirectly by determining the level of activation\phosphorylation of the down-stream molecule, MAPKAP-K2. The p38 MAPKα protein (80 ng/mL, 2.5 uL) is mixed with the test compound (2.5 uL of either 4 ug/mL, 0.4 ug/mL, 0.04 ug/mL or 0.004 ug/mL) for 2 hr at RT. The mix solution (2.5 uL) of the p38a inactive target MAPKAP-K2 (Invitrogen, 600 ng/mL) and FRET peptide (8 uM; a phosphorylation target for MAPKAP-K2) is then added, then the kinase reaction is initiated by adding ATP (40 uM, 2.5 uL). The mixture is incubated for 1 hr at RT. Development reagent (protease, 5 uL) is added for 1 hr prior to detection in a fluorescence microplate reader (Vanoskan Flash, ThermoFisher Scientific).

Assay: FLIPR Assay: The IC50 (effective concentration) of compounds on the human and rat TRPA1 channels were determined using a FLIPR Tetra instrument. CHO cells expressing TRPA1 were plated into 384-well plates, incubated overnight at 37° C., and loaded with BD calcium indicator dye for 1 hr at 37° C. followed by 15 minutes at room temperature. The assay buffer was Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) containing 20 mM HEPES (pH readjusted to 7.4) along with 0.02% BSA.Following dye load and plate cool down, compounds were added to the cells using FLIPR Tetra. Plates were then incubated with compounds for 20 minutes at room temperature prior to adding agonist. Following this incubation, about an EC50 concentration of cinnamaldehyde (75 uM for human TRPA1 and 45 uM for rat TRPA1) was added to active the channels and block of cinnamaldehyde induced calcium influx was measured.The IC50 results were fit with a standard Hill function, keeping the Hill coefficient (n) fixed to 1.5. Fixing the Hill coefficient will generally reduce variability of the IC50 determination. The IC50 results were individually examined to make sure the MIN and MAX points were set correctly prior to validation of the results.

Assay: FRET Assay: An HDM2 FRET assay was developed to assess the compounds' inhibitory activity towards binding of p53 protein. A truncated version of HDM2 with residues 17 to 125 (containing p53 binding surface, Science (1994) 265, 346-355), with N-terminal His and Thioredoxin tag was generated in pET32a expression vector and expressed in E. coli strain BL21(DE3)Rosetta. Protein was purified using Ni-affinity chromatography, followed by size exclusion chromatography using Superdex 75 26/60 column. To assess inhibition of p53 binding to HDM2, a FITC labeled 8-mer peptide (sequence: Ac-Phe-Arg-Dpr-Ac6c-(6-Br)Trp-Glu-Glu-Leu-NH2; Anal Biochem. 2004 Aug. 1; 331(1):138-46) with strong affinity towards p53 binding pocket of HDM2 was used. The HDM2 assay buffer contained 1× Phosphate Buffered Saline (Invitrogen, Cat#14190), 0.01% BSA (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Cat#001-000-162), 0.01% Tween-20. In the 1× assay buffer recombinant HDM2 protein, peptide and Lumi4-Tb Cryptate-conjugate mouse anti-6×His antibody (cisbio, Cat# Tb61HISTLB) were added and transferred to ProxiPlate PLUS (PerkinElmer, Cat#6008269), containing compounds so that final DMSO concentration is 0.1%. Final concentrations of reagents in the assay wells are 0.5 nM HDM2, 0.25 nM anti HIS (Tb label) antibody and 3 nM peptide. After two hour incubation at room temperature in a humidified chamber plates were read on EnVision plate reader with the following settings: excitation: UV, 340 nM, two emission filters: 520 nm and 495 nm respectively. Ratio of em520/em495 was used to calculate % inhibition and to obtain IC50 with 4-parameter logistic equation.

Assay: Biological Assay: TrkA functional activity was measured using a DiscoverX PathHunter assay. In this assay, U2OS cells express the human TrkA receptor as a fusion with the weakly complementing fragment of B-galactosidase, which DiscoverX calls Prolink (PK); additionally, Shc1 is fused with a larger fragment, which is called Enzyme Acceptor (EA). Activation of the TrkA receptor, upon NGF addition, results in the kinase domain being phosphorylated, resulting in subsequent recruitment of Shc1-EA protein. That recruitment results in an active B-galactosidase enzyme that is detected by addition of a chemiluminescent substrate. The human p75NTR protein was also expressed as a co-receptor for NGF.

Assay: transient human FXR/Gal4-luciferase reporter assay: A Gal4-hFXR fusion construct reporter system was used as the primary assay to characterize compound activity. A construct including 5 copies of the Gal4 promoter response element upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter cDNA was stably expressed in HEK293 cells. This reporter cell line was maintained in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Gibco) supplemented with 1% penicillin-streptomycin (P/S) solution, 500 μg/ml Zeocin and 10% charcoal/dextran-treated fetal bovine serum (cs-FBS) at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. Another plasmid was constructed in which the human cytomegalovirus promoter in the pcDNA3.1 vector directs the expression of the cDNA encoding a fusion protein comprised of the DNA binding domain from the Gal4 transcription factor fused to the ligand binding domain from human FXR.The day prior to transfection, the reporter cells in culture are detached from the plate with trypsin and plated into a T75 flask at a sufficient density to achieve approximately 90% confluence the next morning. The transfection reagents are prepared by separately diluting 25 μg of the pcDNA3.1-Gal4-FXR plasmid into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM (Thermo-Fisher), and 40 μL of Lipofectamine 2000 (Thermo-Fisher) into 1.87 mL of Opti-MEM, and then adding the diluted DNA solution into the diluted Lipofectamine 2000 solution and incubating at room temperature for 15-20 minutes. The mixture is further diluted with 10 mL of a solution comprised of DMEM, 10% cs-FBS, and 1% P/S immediately prior to transferring to the cells. The maintenance culture media is aspirated from the cells and the final transfection mixture is added before the cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. This protocol can be scaled up, and the transiently transfected cells can be cryopreserved in an assay-ready format.For compound testing, 100 nL of the compounds (serial dilutions in DMSO) are dispensed with an Echo acoustic dispenser (Labcyte) into the wells of a Corning/Costar clear bottom 384-well white plate. The transfected cells are harvested, counted, and diluted such that 10-25,000 cells in 25 μL are plated into each well of the 384-well compound assay plate. The compound-treated cells are incubated overnight at 37° C. in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. The next morning 25 μL of Steady-Glo (Promega) are added to each well of the plate, the mixture is incubated for 15 min. with shaking, and luminescence is measured on an Envision (Perkin Elmer) plate reader. Background counts from cells treated with DMSO alone are subtracted from all raw counts, and the corrected values are converted to a percentage of the control response attained with 8 μM GW-4064. These data are fit to a 4-parameter log agonist-response equation to calculate an EC50 value.

Following brief incubation the enzymatic reaction was stopped by addition of binding buffer containing nanoparticles with immobilized trivalent metal ions capable of binding 1) AMP phospho groups and 2) terbium (Tb) donor fluorophores. Subsequent excitation of the Tb donor triggers time-resolved FRET to adjacent FAM acceptor molecules resulting in light emission. In the presence of a PDE4 inhibitor, AMP generation was reduced resulting in a lower fluorescence signal. The cAMP phosphodiester is not bound by the detection system.

After two hour incubation at room temperature in a humidified chamber plates were read on EnVision plate reader with the following settings: excitation: UV, 340 nM, two emission filters: 520 nm and 495 nm respectively. Ratio of em520/em495 was used to calculate % inhibition and to obtain IC50 with 4-parameter logistic equation.
Measurement: IC50 = 13 nM (pChEMBL 7.889999866485596)
