Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Complement factor C1s IC50 from mixture screen
Description:  Molecular Library Screening Center Network (MLSCN) Penn Center for Molecular Discovery (PCMD) Assay Provider: Dr. Scott L. Diamond, University of Pennsylvania MLSCN Grant: X01-MH076406-01 Complement factor C1s (EC 3.4.21.42) is a trypsin-like serine protease that is activated in one of the first steps in the classical complement cascade. Despite the essential role for the complement cascade in immune defense, unregulated activation leading to acute inflammation and tissue damage has been implicated in many disease states. Under normal conditions the activity of C1s is modulated by its endogenous inhibitor, C1 esterase inhibitor. Pathological conditions lead to excessive activation of C1s; thus a small molecule inhibitor would be useful in the treatment of ischemia-reperfusion injury and other complement-mediated diseases. Assay The high-throughput screen for complement factor C1s inhibitors has been reported earlier (AID 538). The assay consisted of an end-point assay monitoring th
