Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Inhibition Assay
Description:  PathHunter CXCR2 β-arrestin cells (DiscoverX) were grown under normal conditions and seeded on a white-walled 384-microwell plate at 20 μL/well. Before testing, the cells were incubated at 37° C. for an appropriate time. The test compounds were serially diluted in DMSO at a three-fold dilution factor to obtain 8 serially diluted test compounds. Shortly before the test, the above serially diluted test compounds were further diluted with test buffer to 5 times the test concentration. 5 μL of the further diluted test compounds was added to the cells and then the cells were incubated at 37° C. for 30 minutes. The vehicle concentration was 1%. 5 μL of 6×EC80 agonist (CXCL8) buffer was added to the cells and then the cells were incubated at 37° C. for 90 minutes. 15 μL (50% v/v) of PathHunter detection reagent mixture was added in one portion, followed by one-hour incubation to generate the test signal. The microplates were read on a PerkinElmer Envision instrument for chemiluminescence signal. The biological activity of the test compounds was analyzed by CBIS data analysis suite (ChemInnovation, CA) and shown as IC50 values.
