Target: Toll-like receptor 7 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: Q9NYK1
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: Scintillation Proximity Assay (SPA): The PDE4B and 4D assays use scintillation proximity assay (SPA) technology to measure the inhibition of human recombinant PDE4B and PDE4D enzyme activity by compounds in vitro. The PDE4B and 4D assays are run in parallel using identical parameters, except for the concentration of enzyme (32 pM PDE4B and 16 pM PDE4D). The assays are performed in a 384-well format with 50 μL assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.5; 1.3 mM MgCl2; 0.01% Brij) containing enough PDE4B and PDE4D to convert 20% of substrate (1 μM cAMP consisting of 20 nM 3H-cAMP+980 μM cold cAMP) and a range of inhibitors. Reactions are incubated for 30 min at 25° C. The addition of 20 μL of 8 mg/mL yitrium silicate SPA beads (PerkinElmer) stops the reaction. The plates are sealed (TopSeal, PerkinElmer) and the beads are allowed to settle for 8 hrs, after which they are read on the Trilux Microbeta overnight.

Target: Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: O60885
Assay: Time Resolved Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (TR-FRET) Assay: The binding of compounds to bromodomain BRD4 (44-168), BRD4 (333-460), and BRD4 (1-477 or 44-460) was assessed using a time resolved fluorescent resonance energy transfer binding assay (1), that measures the binding of a fluorescently labeled probe molecule to the bromodomain protein. The bromodomain protein, fluorescent probe molecule (either a biotinylated histone peptide or a fluorescently labeled small molecule), and dose-responded test compound are incubated together to reach thermodynamic equilibrium. In the absence of a test compound, the bromodomain and small molecule are bound, resulting in a high fluorescent signal. In the presence of a sufficient concentration of inhibitor, this intercation is disrupted resulting in a lost of fluorescent resonance energy transfer.All assay components were dissolved in buffer composition 20 mM Hepes pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM DTT, 0.005% Tween 20, and 100 ug/ml BSA for BRD4 (1-477 and 44-460). The final concentrations of the bromodomain proteins are 1.6 nM BRD4(44-168), 1 nM BRD4(333-460), and 1 nM BRD4(1-477 or 44-460), and the fluorescent probe molecule is 100 nM, 50 nM, and 7.5 nM respectively. All proteins were biotinylated. A streptavidin labeled with terbium cryptate (Cisbio SA-Tb) was used as detection, and pre-mixed with the bromodomain protein at a final concentration of 0.2 nM. In some instances for BRD4 (44-460), anti-His terbium cryptate was used as a detection. 7.5 nl of dose-responded test compound or dmso vehicle (0.0375%) was pre-spotted in a black Corning 384 well plate and 10 ul each of bromodomain/detection reagent and fluorescent small molecule solution were added to the plate, and the reaction incubated for 60 min at room temperature. Plates were then read on EnVision plate reader, (λex=340 nm, acceptor λEm=520 nm, and donor λEm=615 nm, LANCE D400 mirror). Time resolved fluorescnce intensity measurements were made at both emissions, and the ratio of acceptor/donor was calculated and used for data analysis.

Assay: Fluorescence Polarization Anisotropy Competition Assay: Fluorescence Polarization Anisotropy Competition Assay. Anisotropy measurements were carried out in 384-well, black, flat-bottom plates (Greiner Bio-one, Monroe, N.C., USA). The assay was run using either a fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled BH3 peptide derived from Bak (FITC-AHx-GQVGRQLAIIGDDINR-NH2) or a fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled BH3 peptide derived from Bim (FITC-AHx-EARIAQELRRIGDEFNETYTR-NH2)that were purchased from GenScript (Piscataway, N.J.) at >95% purity and used without further purification. 10 nM FITC-Bak peptide and 15 nM recombinant Mcl-1 (residues 172-327) were added to assay buffer (3 mM dithiothreitol, 50 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris, pH 7.5). The Bim based assay was run with 1 nM FITC-Bim peptide and 1.5 nM recombinant Mcl-1 (residues 172-327) added to assay buffer (20 mM TRIS pH 7.5, 50 mM NaCl, 3 mM DTT, 0.01% CHAPS). For selectivity assays, 40 nM Bcl-2 (residues 1-207 A96T,G110R, Δ35-91, replaced with Bcl-xL35-50) or 4 nM Bcl-xL (residues 1-209, loop 45-86 deleted) were incubated with 10 nM FITC-Bak in assay buffer. Compounds are diluted in DMSO in a 10-point, 3-fold serial dilution scheme. For the FITC-BAK assay 2.5 uL compound is added to 47.5 μL of assay buffer containing FITC-Bak and protein, for a final DMSO concentration of 5% and a top concentration of 20 μM. A FITC-Bak peptide alone (100% inhibition) and peptide plus protein (0% inhibition) control is included on each assay plate. For the FITC-Bim assay, compound is added to 40 uL of assay buffer containing protein, 15 minutes prior to addition of 10 μL of the FITC-Bim peptide, for a final DMSO concentration of 0.165% and a top concentration of 200 nM. A FITC-Bim peptide alone (100% inhibition) and peptide plus protein (0% inhibition) control is included on each assay plate. The plate was mixed and incubated for 90 minutes at room temperature.

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.

Target: Nuclear receptor ROR-gamma (SINGLE PROTEIN), Homo sapiens
UniProt: P51449
Assay: Biological Assays: The compounds of the invention inhibit RORgammaT activity. Activation of RORgammaT activity can be measured using, e.g., biochemical TR-FRET assay. In such an assay, interaction of cofactor-derived peptides with human RORgammaT-Ligand Binding Domain (LBD) can be measured. The TR-FRET technique is a sensitive biochemical proximity assay that will give information concerning the interaction of a ligand with the LBD, in the presence of cofactor-derived peptides (Zhou et al., Methods 25:54-61, 2001).To identify novel antagonists of RORgammaT, an assay was developed which employs the interaction of RORgammaT with its co-activator peptide SRC1_2. This peptide mimics the recruitment of co-activators to RORgammaT through its interaction with the LXXLL (SEQ ID NO:1) (e.g., NR box) motifs (Xie et al., J. Immunol. 175: 3800-09, 2005; Kurebayashi et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 315: 919-27, 2004; Jin et al., Mol. Endocrinology 24:923-29, 2010). The RORγ-Ligand Binding Domain TR-FRET Assay was run according to the following protocol.HIS-tagged RORγ-LBD protein was expressed in SF9 cells using a baculovirus expression system. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by glutathione sepharose chromatography. Separately, SF9 cells not expressing any recombinant protein were lysed and the lysate was added to the purified RORγ-LBD at 0.25 μl lysate (from 10,000 SF9 cells)/nM purified protein. The mixture was then diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT) to obtain RORγ-LBD final concentration of 3 nM in 384-well assay plate.Compounds to be tested were injected to the assay plate using Acoustic Droplet Ejection technology by Echo 550 liquid handler (Labcyte, Calif.).A stock of biotinylated-LXXLL peptide from coactivator SRC1 (Biotin-CPSSHSSLTERHKILHRLLQEGSPS) (SEQ ID NO:2) was prepared in assay buffer and added to each well (100 nM final concentration). A solution of Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody (1.25 nM final concentration) and APC conjugated streptavidin (8 nM final concentration) were also added to each well.The final assay mixture was incubated overnight at 4° C., and the fluorescence signal was measured on an Envision plate reader: (Excitation filter=340 nm; APC emission=665 nm; Europium emission=615 nm; dichroic mirror=D400/D630; delay time=100 μs, integration time=200 μs). IC50 values for test compounds were calculated from the quotient of the fluorescence signal at 665 nm divided by the fluorescence signal at 615 nm.

Assay: Biochemical TR-FRET Assay: To identify novel antagonists of RORgammaT, an assay was developed which employs the interaction of RORgammaT with its co-activator peptide SRC1_2. This peptide mimics the recruitment of co-activators to RORgammaT through its interaction with the LXXLL (SEQ ID NO:1) (e.g., NR box) motifs (Xie et al., J. Immunol. 175: 3800-09, 2005; Kurebayashi et al., Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 315: 919-27, 2004; Jin et al., Mol. Endocrinology 24:923-29, 2010). The RORγ-Ligand Binding Domain TR-FRET Assay was run according to the following protocol.HIS-tagged RORγ-LBD protein was recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. The RORγ-LBD protein was purified by Ni2+-affinity resin. Purified protein was then diluted in assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.0, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM DTT, 100 μg/mL bovine serum albumin, delipidated) to obtain a RORγ-LBD final concentration of 3 nM. Europium tagged anti-HIS antibody was also added to this solution (1.25 nM). Separately, SF9 cells not expressing any recombinant protein were lysed (32,000 cells per μl in 25 mM Tris, 50 mM NaCl) and the previously frozen lysate was added to the diluted RORγ-LBD solution at a ratio of 0.75 μl SF9 lysate per 15 μl of diluted RORγ-LBD.

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: QC Inhibition Assay: An inhibition activity assay of QC inhibitors was conducted. See Huang et al., J. Biol. Chem. 2011, 286, 12439-12449. A reaction mixture containing 300 μM of Gln-βNA and 0.2 units of human PAP I was prepared. QC was first incubated with an inhibitor at 25° C. for 30 minutes and the enzyme-inhibitor mixture was then added to the reaction mixture to initiate the cyclization reaction. An IC50 value was obtained by fitting an initial reaction rate versus an inhibitor concentration using KaleidaGraph. A Ki value of the inhibitor was calculated according to an equation IC50=Ki(1+[S]/Km). See Segel, Enzyme Kinetics: Behavior and Analysis of Rapid Equilibrium and Steady-State Enzyme Systems, pp. 100-118. New York: John Wiley & Sons, 1993. In this equation, [S] is a substrate (i.e., Gln-βNA) concentration and Km is a Michaelis-Menten constant. The lower the Ki value, the higher the inhibitor's QC inhibition rate.

Assay: Kinases Assay : Btk kinase activity was determined using a homogenous time resolved fluorescence (HTRF) methodology. Measurements were performed in a reaction volume of 15 μL using 384-well assay plates. Kinase enzyme, inhibitor, ATP and 1 μM peptide substrate were incubated in a reaction buffer compose of Hepes50 mM (pH7.0), NaN3 0.02%, BSA 0.01%, Orthocanadate 0.1 mM. After one hour, the kinase reaction was quenched by the addition of E t-labeled antibody and XL-665 in 1×Detection buffer containing 60 mM EDTA (Cisbio), and the mixture was allowed to incubate for one hour. The HTRF signal was measured on a multimode plate reader (EnVision Multilabel Reader, Perkin Elmer) with an excitation wavelength (λEx) of 330 nm and detection wavelengths (λEm) of 615 and 665 nm. Activity was determined by the ratio of the fluorescence at 665 nm to that at 615 nm. For each compound, enzyme activity as measured at various concentrations of compound, Negative control reactions were performed in the absence of inhibitor in two replicates and eight no enzyme controls were used to determine baseline fluorescence levels. IC50s were obtained according to the equation:Y=100/(1+10{circumflex over ( )}((Log IC50−X)*HillSlope)).For BTK assay, [ATP]=80 μM, BTK=3.4 nM.For LYN assay, [ATP]=20 μM, LYN=0.12 n M.

For the Cav3.2 assay, serial dilutions of the compounds are prepared in TEAC buffer (100 mM tetraethylammonium chloride; 20 mM Hepes; 2.5 mM CaCl2; 5 mM KCl; 1 mM MgCl2; 1% FBS; pH 7.2), for the Cav1.2 assay serial dilutions are prepared in assay buffer. Test compounds are added to the cells to give a 3-fold dilution range from 10 μM to 0.05 nM. The compounds are incubated with the cells for 3 minutes and Ca2+ entry is stimulated by adding either CaCl2 to a final concentration of 10 mM (Cav3.2 assay) or by adding KCl to a final concentration of 20 mM (Cav1.2 assay). The kinetics of fluorescence increase are recorded for every well and the area under the fluorescence trace for every compound concentration is used to generate inhibition curves using non-linear regression sigmoidal concentration-response curve analysis with in-house software. IC50 values are calculated and represent the compound concentration required to inhibit 50% of the signal that is obtained in the presence of vehicle instead of test compound. In analogy, antagonistic activities (IC50 values) of all exemplified compounds have been measured for the for the Cav3.1- and the Cav3.3-channel. Antagonistic activities (IC50 values) of all exemplified compounds are in the range of 1.7 to 970 nM with respect to Cav3.1; and in the range of 1.1 to 620 nM with respect to Cav3.3.

UniProt: P15559
Assay: BEAS-2B NQO1 MTT Assay: NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), also called DT diaphorase, is a homodimeric FAD-containing enzyme that catalyzes obligatory NAD(P)H-dependent two-electron reductions of quinones and protects cells against the toxic and neoplastic effects of free radicals and reactive oxygen species arising from one-electron reductions. The transcription of NQO1 is finely regulated by NRF2, and thus NQO1 activity is a good marker for NRF2 activation. On day one, frozen BEAS-2B cells (ATCC) are thawed in a water bath, counted, and re-suspended at a concentration of 250,000 cells/mL. Fifty microliters of cells are plated in 384 well black clear-bottomed plates. Plates are incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 overnight. On day two, plates are centrifuged and 50 nL of compound or controls are added to the cells. Plates are then incubated at 37° C., 5% CO2 for 48 hours. On day four, medium is aspirated from the plate and crude cell lysates are made by adding 13 uL of 1× Cell Signaling Technologies lysis buffer with 1 Complete, Mini, EDTA-free Protease Inhibitor Tablet (Roche) for each 10 mL of lysis buffer. After lysis plates are incubated for 20 minutes at room temperature. Two microliters of lysate are removed for use in Cell Titer Glo assay (Promega) and MTT cocktail is prepared (Prochaska et. al. 1998) for measurement of NQO1 activity. Fifty microliters of MTT cocktail is added to each well, plate is centrifuged, and analyzed on an Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer) using Absorbance 570 nm label for 30 minutes. Product formation is measured kinetically and the pEC50 of NQO1 specific activity induction is calculated by plotting the change in absorbance (Delta OD/min) versus the log of compound concentration followed by 3-parameter fitting.

Assay: Compound Profiling Methods: Strains expressing SCD1 or SCD5 as the sole desaturase, the human SCD1 and SCD5 genes were used to evaluate inhibition of SCD1/SCD5 using reduced growth as a surrogate for SCD inhibition. These yeast strains express human SCD1 or SCD5 from a plasmid harbored in a strain in which the yeast OLE1 gene is deleted.All compound profiling experiments were performed using the same basic protocol. Yeast were cultured using standard techniques in complete synthetic media lacking uracil and containing yeast nitrogen base supplemented with 2% (w/v) glucose (SD-Ura) Starter cultures were inoculated in 3 mL SD-Ura media containing 0.01% tween and 0.2 mM palmitoleic and oleic acid. Cultures were incubated overnight in a 30° C. shaker incubator (225 rpm). Saturated morning cultures were centrifuged, washed in SD-Ura media lacking TWEEN-20 and fatty acids, and then diluted 1:20 in fresh SD-Ura media also lacking TWEEN-20 and fatty acids. Cells were grown for 6 h to an  (optical density) of 0.4-0.8 at 30° C. with shaking.Compound stocks (10 mM in 100% DMSO) were arrayed into 384-round well, v-bottom polypropylene plates and diluted according to indicated dilution factors. Compound administration was performed in two separate steps. First, 15 μL of SD-Ura was dispensed into clear 384-well assay plates using a MULTIDROP Combi reagent dispenser. The diluted compound stock plates were then applied to the assay plates using an automated workstation (Perkin Elmer JANUS) outfitted with a 384-pin tool containing slotted pins that deliver 100 nL of compound. The cultures described above were centrifuged and washed with media lacking TWEEN-20 or oleic and palmitoleic acids. Cultures were then resuspended at a 2-fold concentrated  of 0.02 (final  of 0.0.01) in SD-Ura. 15 μL of diluted culture was then dispensed into the pinned assay plate to achieve 30 μL of the 1× culture (0.01) and a top drug concentration of 33.3 μM.After yeast delivery, assay plates were incubated under humidified conditions at 30° C. for 40 h. Yeast growth was monitored by reading the  of each well using a microplate reader (Perkin Elmer EnVision). Data were analyzed as follows. Raw data were processed by background subtracting and converting values to a percent of the nontreated condition for that strain [(EXP-0.035)/(DMSO-0.035)×100%].

UniProt: P56817
Assay: In Vivo Inhibition of Beta-Secretase: Several animal models, including mouse, rat, dog, and monkey, may be used to screen for inhibition of beta-secretase activity in vivo following administration of a test compound sample. Animals used in this invention can be wild type, transgenic, or gene knockout animals. For example, the Tg2576 mouse model, prepared and conducted as described in Hsiao et al., 1996, Science 274, 99-102, and other non-transgenic or gene knockout animals are useful to analyze in vivo inhibition of Amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) production in the presence of inhibitory test compounds. Generally, 2 to 18 month old Tg2576 mice, gene knockout mice or non-transgenic animals are administered test compounds formulated in vehicles, such as cyclodextran, phosphate buffers, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose or other suitable vehicles. One to twenty-four hours following the administration of compound, animals are sacrificed, and brains as well as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma are removed for analysis of A-beta levels and drug or test compound concentrations (Dovey et al., 2001, Journal of Neurochemistry, 76, 173-181) Beginning at time 0, animals are administered by oral gavage, or other means of delivery such as intravenous injection, an inhibitory test compound of up to 100 mg/kg in a standard, conventional formulation, such as 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, 1% Tween80. A separate group of animals receive 2% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, 1% Tween80 alone, containing no test compound, and serve as a vehicle-control group. At the end of the test period, animals are sacrificed and brain tissues, plasma or cerebrospinal fluid are collected. Brains are either homogenized in 10 volumes (w/v) of 0.2% diethylamine (DEA) in 50 mM NaCl (Best et al., 2005, Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 313, 902-908), or in 10 volumes of 0.5% TritonX-100 in Tris-buffered saline (pH at about 7.6). Homogenates are centrifuged at 355,000 g, 4° C. for 30 minutes. CSF or brain supernatants are then analyzed for the presence of A-beta peptide by specific sandwich ELISA assays based on ECL (Electrochemiluminescence) technology.

Stop solution: 40 μl 5% TCA in ACN0.25 μL of compound solution was added to 10 μL of 200 nM PAD4 in assay buffer (100 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.6, 2 mM DTT). After 5 mins, 10 μL of 100 μM of substrate in buffer (100 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.6, 2 mM DTT, 2 mM CaCl2)) was added and the reaction incubated for 60 mins at 37° C. The enzymatic reaction was quenched by addition of 40 μl of 5% TCA in ACN (1.7% TCA final concentration) stop solution. Arginine containing substrate were subjected to solid phase extraction on Agilent RapidFire (RF) 300 system and detected on a coupled, triple quadrupole Agilent 6460 QQQ mass spectrometry (MS) device under application of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) for quantitation.
