Assay: h-SERT Binding Assay: The [3H] citalopram binding was measured according to the method disclosed in Owens M. J. et al., J. Pharm. Exp. Ther., 283, 1305-1322 (1997). In specific, a solution of 200 μL in total was prepared by mixing 50 μL of [3H] citalopram (manufactured by GE Healthcare) diluted with a SERT buffer (final concentration: about 2 nmol/L), 149 μL of the h-SERT/CHO membrane preparation (protein amount: 40 μg/well), and 1 μL of the test drug dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide. The solution was reacted at room temperature for 60 minutes, and then quickly suction-filtered under reduced pressure through a glass fiber filter coated with 0.05% aq. polyethyleneimine. The glass fiber filter was washed twice with 250 HL of the SERT buffer, placed in a plastic vial containing 4 mL of liquid scintillator (ACS-II, manufactured by Amersham) or Ecoscint A (manufactured by National Diagnostics), and the remaining radioactivity on the filter paper was assayed with a liquid scintillation counter. The non-specific binding of [3H] citalopram was defined as a binding amount in the presence of 1 μmol/L clomipramine (manufactured by Sigma Aldrich) The IC50 value was calculated according to Hill analysis [see, Hill A. V., J. Physiol., 40, 190-200 (1910)], and the binding inhibition constant (Ki) was calculated according to the following formula: Binding inhibition constant (Ki)=IC50/(1+S/Kd) wherein S is a concentration of the added [3H] citalopram, and Kd is a binding dissociation constant of [3H] citalopram which was calculated from a saturated binding assay using the same cell membrane. A lower Ki value (i.e. a lower h-SERT binding inhibition constant) means that the test drug has a stronger human serotonin reuptake inhibitory action.
Measurement: Ki = 1.5 nM (pChEMBL 8.819999694824219)

Target: Glutaminase kidney isoform, mitochondrial (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O94925
Assay: Enzymatic Activity Assay: The inhibition of purified recombinant human GAC by varying concentrations of inhibitors is assessed via a dual-coupled enzymatic assay. The glutamate produced by the glutaminase reaction is used by glutamate oxidase to produce α-ketoglutarate, ammonia, and hydrogen peroxide, with this hydrogen peroxide subsequently being used by horseradish peroxidase to produce resorufin in the presence of Amplex UltraRed. The assay buffer consisted of 50 mM Hepes (pH 7.4), 0.25 mM EDTA and 0.1 mM Triton X-100. GAC was incubated with potassium phosphate (10 minutes at room temperature) prior to incubation with inhibitor (10 minutes at room temperature). The final reaction conditions were as follows: 2 nM GAC, 50 mM potassium phosphate, 100 mU/mL glutamate oxidase (Sigma), 1 mM glutamine (Sigma), 100 mU/mL horseradish peroxidase (Sigma), 75 μM Amplex UltraRed (Life Technologies), and 1% (v/v) DMSO. The production of resorufin was monitored on a Perkin Elmer Envision plate reader (excitation 530 nm, emission 590 nm) either in a kinetics or endpoint mode (at 20 minutes). IC50 values were calculated using a four-parameter logistic curve fit.

Assay: Inhibition Assay: G-402 cells can be obtained from ATCC (CRL-1440) and were originally derived from a renal leiomyoblastoma.The expression plasmids contains the ORF for either human/cyno CYP11B1 or CYP11B2 under the control of a suitable promoter (CMV-promoter) and a suitable resistance marker (neomycin). Using standard techniques the expression plasmid is transfected into G-402 cells and these cells are then selected for expressing the given resistance markers. Individual cell-clones are then selected and assessed for displaying the desired enzymatic activity using 11-Deoxycorticosterone (Cyp11B2) or 11-Deoxycortisol (Cyp11B1) as a substrate.G-402 cells expressing CYP11 constructs were established as described above and maintained in McCoy's 5a Medium Modified, ATCC Catalog No. 30-2007 containing 10% FCS and 400 μg/ml G418 (Geneticin) at 37° C. under an atmosphere of 5% CO2/95% air. Cellular enzyme assays were performed in DMEM/F12 medium containing 2.5% charcoal treated FCS and appropriate concentration of substrate (0.3-10 uM 11-Deoxycorticosterone, 11-Deoxycortisol or Corticosterone). For assaying enzymatic activity, cells were plated onto 96 well plates and incubated for 16 h. An aliquot of the supernatant is then transferred and analyzed for the concentration of the expected product (Aldosterone for CYP11B2; Cortisol for CYP11B1). The concentrations of these steroids can be determined using HTRF assays from CisBio analyzing either Aldosterone or Cortisol.

UniProt: P04629
Assay: Functional Activity 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, Shcl 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 Shcl-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.All reagents were purchased from DiscoverX, except for the receptor agonists (NGF, BDNF, NT3) which were purchased from Peprotech. Cells were expanded and frozen into cryovials, and stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen, and thawed immediately before use. Thawed cells were added to a 384-well plate at 7500 cells/well, and allowed to incubate overnight. Compound at various concentrations was added the following morning and allowed to incubate on cells for 1 h. Then, NGF was added at a concentration sufficient to elicit 80% of a maximal response and allowed to incubate for 3 h at ambient temperature.

Assay: IMAP TR-FRET-based phosphodiesterase assay: An IMAP TR-FRET-based phosphodiesterase assay was developed using the PDE2A isoform. IMAP technology is based on high-affinity binding of phosphate by immobilized metal (MIII) coordination complexes on nanoparticles. The IMAP binding reagent recognizes phosphate groups on AMP or GMP generated from cAMP or cGMP in a PDE reaction. Cyclic nucleotides that carry a phosphodiester bond and not a free phosphate are not recognized by the binding reagent. The time resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET) is afforded by a Terbium (Tb)-Donor pre-bound to the nanoparticles. FRET occurs when the fluorescent-labeled AMP or GMP product of a PDE reaction binds and comes into close proximity to the Tb-Donor complex. Due to the long lifetime of Tb fluorescence, detection can be run in time-resolved mode to reduce or eliminate interference from auto-fluorescent compounds.The IMAP TR-FRET PDE2A assay was performed in 1536-well white plates. A total of 250 pg per well of FLAG-tagged PDE2A1 (amino acids 2-941) was dispensed in 2.5 μL IMAP assay buffer consisting of 10 mM Tris pH 7.2, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT, and 0.1% fatty acid free BSA. 30 nL of compound was then added from 1 mM stocks in DMSO using a Kalypsys Pintool. Plates were incubated for 5 min at room temperature before dispensing 1.5 μL of 533 nM FAM-cAMP substrate for a final concentration of 200 nM. Following a brief centrifugation, plates were incubated for 30 min at room temperature. The assay was terminated by adding 5 μL IMAP binding reagent Tb complex to each well which was prepared according to manufacturer's recommendations (Molecular Devices). Plates were incubated an additional 90 minutes at room temperature and read on a Viewlux plate reader. All compounds were solvated at a concentration of 10 mM in DMSO and tested in 11-point half-log dose-response. Curve fitting and IC50 values were determined using a standard four parameter fit.

In these experiments, 2 nM kallikrein (Enzyme Research Laboratories, South Bend, Ind., USA) was incubated with 80 μM S2302 (H-D-Pro-Phe-Arg-p-nitroaniline) in the absence or presence of increasing concentrations of compounds of the invention in a final volume of 200 μL Tris-HCl buffer (200 mM NaCl; 2.5 mM CaCl2; 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.8).After incubation at 30° C., the activity of kallikrein was measured as a change in absorbance at OD 405 nm using BioTek PowerWave X340 Microplate Reader (Winooski, Vt., USA). Data were analyzed using SigmaPlot software (Systat Software, Inc., San Jose, Calif., USA) (Four Parameter Logistic Curve). Ki values for the inhibitors were determined using the Cheng-Prusoff equation (Biochem. Pharmacol. 1973, 22, 3099).
