| Description: | A calcium flux assay was used to determine the ability of the compounds to interfere with the binding between CCR9 and its chemokine ligand (TECK) in Chem1-hCCR9 overexpressing cells. hCCR9 overexpressing cells were seeded (25,000 cells/well) into black Poly-D-Lysine coated clear bottom 96-well plates (BD Biosciences, Cat #356640) and incubated overnight at 37° C./5% CO2 in a humidified incubator. Media was aspirated and cells washed twice with 100 μL assay buffer (1×HBSS, 20 mM HEPES) containing 2.5 mM Probenecid. A 0.3× Fluo-4 NW calcium dye was prepared in assay buffer containing 5 mM Probenecid and stored in the dark. Each well was loaded with 100 μL of 0.3× Fluo-4 NW calcium dye and incubated at 37° C./5% CO2 for 60 minutes and then at room temperature for 30 minutes. A half-log serially diluted concentration response curve was prepared at a 3× final assay concentration for each compound (10 μM-0.1 nM final assay concentration) and 50 μL of the compound then transferred to the cells (150 μL final volume) for 60 minutes prior to stimulation (30 minutes at 37° C./5% CO2 and 30 minutes at room temperature). TECK was diluted to 4× its EC80 in assay buffer (containing 0.1% [w/v] bovine serum albumin [BSA]) and 50 μL dispensed through the fluorometric imaging plate reader (FLIPR) instrument to stimulate the cells (200 μL final volume). The increase in intracellular calcium levels was measured with the FLIPR instrument. |
