Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  NFAT Transcriptional Activity
Description:  HEK 293 cells were stably transfected with a NFAT-Luc reporter gene. 30,000-80,000 cells were seeded per well. Test compounds from this invention were added to the cells at different concentrations. Thapsigargin (TG) was added after 10 mins and the cells were incubated for 4-8 h. NFAT transcriptional activity was measured using BrightGlo reagent (Promega USA). Luminescence observed in cells treated with thapsigargin was considered 100% maximal signal and the reduced fluorescent signal observed in the presence of test compounds was expressed as percent inhibition of the maximal signal. The data was analyzed using 4-parametric sigmoidal dose response (variable slope) curve-fit.
