Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Activation Assay
Description:  The functional activity of compounds at the TRPV1 receptor was determined by measurement of intracellular Ca2+ levels ([Ca2]i) using the Fluorescence Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR)TETRA. All compounds were tested over a 12-point one-third-log concentration range. Compound stocks, 10 mM, were prepared in DMSO, and diluted serially across a 384-well plate using a Bravo BenchCel workstation (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, Calif.). A stock concentration of capsaicin (10 mM) was made in DMSO, and diluted in D-PBS to a final concentration of 200 nM (4x). On the day prior to the experiment, recombinant HEK293 cells that stably express either human or rat TRPV1 (hTRPV1-3) were removed from tissue culture flasks and plated in growth medium into black-walled clear-bottom 384-well Biocoat poly-D-lysine assay plates (BD Biosciences, Bedford, Mass.) using a Multidrop dispenser (ThermoScientific, Waltham, Mass.). On the day of the experiment, growth medium was removed.
