| | Radiometric Calcium Assay |
| Description: | The inhibition of TRPA1 receptor activation was measured as inhibition of allylisothiocyanate (AITC) induced cellular uptake of radioactive calcium. Test compounds were dissolved in DMSO to prepare 10 mM stock solution and then diluted using plain medium with 0.1% BSA and 1.8 mM CaCl2 to get desired concentration. Final concentration of DMSO in the reaction was 0.5% (v/v). Human TRPA1 expressing CHO cells were grown in F-12 DMEM medium with 10% FBS, 1% penicillin-streptomycin solution, and 400 ug/ml of G-418. Cells were seeded 24 h prior to the assay in 96 well plates so as to get 50,000 cells per well on the day of experiment. Cells were treated with test compounds for 10 min followed by addition of AITC at a final concentration of 30 micromolar and 5 uCi/ml 45Ca+2 for 3 min at 25° C. Cells were washed and lysed using buffer containing 1% Triton X-100, 0.1% deoxycholate and 0.1% SDS. Radioactivity in the lysate was measured in Packard Top count. |
