Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  In Vitro Assay
Description:  Tango CXCR7-bla U2OS cells are detached from culture dishes with 0.05% trypsin-EDTA and collected in growing medium (McCoy's 5A 90% (v/v), dialyzed FCS 10% (v/v), 0.1 mM NEAA, 25 mM HEPES (pH7.3), 1 mM sodium pyruvate, P/S 1% (v/v) 50 μg/ml Hygromycin, 100 μg/ml Geneticin, 200 μg/ml Zeocin), spinned down and resuspended in assay medium (McCoy's 5A 90% (v/v), dialyzed FCS 1% (v/v), 0.1 mM NEAA, 25 mM HEPES (pH7.3), P/S 1% (v/v)). 10′000 cells per well (in 30 μl) are seeded in a 384 well plate (black-walled, clear bottom). The plate is incubated at 37° C./5% CO2 for 24 hours. Test compounds are dissolved to 10 mM in DMSO and serially diluted in DMSO to 500× of the final concentration for dose response curves. Compounds are then diluted 1:100 in assay medium to 5× of the final concentration. 10 μl/well of diluted compounds are added to the assay plate and incubated for 15 minutes at 37° C. Thereafter CXCL12/SDF1-α is diluted in assay medium to 5× of the final concentration (its EC80 value for receptor activation) and 10 μl/well are added to the assay plate. The agonist leads to activation of the receptor and therefore to b-arrestin recruitment. Compounds acting as antagonists reduce this activation. The plate is incubated for 22 hrs at 37° C. 10 μl/well of detection reagent (LiveBLAzer -FRET BIG (CCF4-AM) substrate) is transferred to the assay plate and the plate is incubated for 2 hours at room temperature protected from light. Fluorescent counts are determined (Scan1: Ex 409/20 nm, Em 460/30 nm, Scan 2: Ex 409/20 nm, Em 530/30 nm).
