Notes:
These authors compared 6 different detection strategies for protein-protein interactions on protein arrays. They expressed HaloTag® labeled bait proteins in a cell-free expression system, and captured these bait proteins onto coated glass slides using the HaloLink™ Array System. They then compared detection strategies using prey proteins labeled as follows: 1)35S methionine, 2) fluorescence (BODIPY-FL) and 3) biotin labeling of lysine residues using modified Lys tRNA, 4) chemical labeling after expression, 5) HaloTag® fusion, and 6) N-terminal FLAG tag. The authors evaluated signal:background ratios, adaptability to high-throughput screening, and ease of use.

Notes:
The authors of this study describe a proof-of-concept screen to use mammary epithelial cells that have been induced to undergo an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) as model cells to identify agents that may be selectively toxic against "epithelial cancer stem cells" (CSCs). They induced the transformed breast cancer cell line HMLER to undergo a mesenchymal transition using shRNA directed against the E-cadherin gene. They characterized the responsiveness of these transitioned cells to common cytotoxic agents using the CellTiter® 96 AQueous Cytoxicity Assay and compared the response to that of HMLER cells containing a control shRNA. They showed that the HMLER cells induced to undergo EMT behaved more like CSCs. The researchers then performed a proof-of-concept high-throughput screen to identify compounds that targeted the HMLER cells induced to undergo EMT, using the CellTiter-Glo® Assay to assess cell viability.

Notes:
In this study, small molecule enhancers of cAMP response element binding (CREB) were studied using quantitative high-throughput screening. After an initial screen of 73,000 compounds, 1,800 compounds were classified as potentiators of CREB activity. A second screening to confirm the compound potential was performed using the GloResponse™ CRE-luc2P HEK293 Cell Line. Five microliters of cells in assay medium were seeded in 1,536-well plates at a density of 2,500 cells/well. The next day, 23 nl of compound in DMSO or DMSO alone was dispensed into each well, then 1 μl of NKH477 (final concentration, 200 nM) or media alone was added to the assay plates. After incubating the cells for 4 hours at 37 °C, 6 μl of Bright-Glo™ Luciferase Assay Reagent was added to each well, incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes and the luminescence measured.

Notes:
The authors of this paper created a mouse model for in vitro assays to screen for therapeutic compounds specifically active against astrocytic gliomas. A Green/Red luciferase (G/R-luc) dual-reporter system was created in KR158 cells (derived from grade III agressive mouse anaplastic astrocytoma). The green click beetle luciferase gene (from pCBC68-Basic Vector) was placed under the control of the E2F1 promoter, and the red click beetle luciferase gene (from pCBR-Basic Vector) was placed under the control of the CMV promoter. The dual-reporter assay simultaneously evaluates E2F1 promoter activity and assesses cytotocity; the assay also distinguishes cytostatic from cytotoxic compounds.

Bioluminescent assays for ADMET
Expert Opin. Drug Metab. Toxicol.
4
,
103–120
.
|
| |
Notes:
The authors of this review article highlight the use of bioluminescence as a readout for high-throughput ADME/Tox assays. They discuss three strategies for designing bioluminescent assays, using either luciferase, ATP or luciferin substrates as the limiting reagents for a luciferase-catalyzed reaction. Reporter gene assays limit the production of luciferase by tying it to a promoter or DNA regulatory region of interest. Such assays can be used to study genes that are regulated by drugs and other xenobiotics. Bioluminescent assays in which ATP is the limiting reagent of the luciferase reaction can be designed to monitor cell viability or the activity kinases. Bioluminescent assays in which the substrate is limiting can be designed so that the activity of a particular enzyme results in the production of a luciferin substrate that can, in turn, be acted upon by luciferase.

Notes:
The authors designed a high-throughput gene-expression screen to identify compounds that induce a neuroblastoma gene signature in BE(2)-C cells. The screen used Valproic Acid (VPA), an inhibitor of histone deacetylase, as an enhancer. The top hit from the screen was all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). The authors proposed that ATRA + VPA would reduce cell viability and might induce apoptosis by inducing genes associated with terminal differentiation. They used the CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay in a 96-well format to assess the effects of ATRA and a variety of inhibitors of histone deacetylase on BE(2)-C cell viability.

Notes:
The authors of this paper describe the development of a cell-free assay system derived from Agrobacterium tumefaciens NTL4(pCF218) (pCF372), which expresses β-galactosidase under the control of a tra1 promoter. The tra1 promoter is responsive to quorum-sensing signals. The assay was developed to address time-consuming cell conditioning and incubation times of the standard whole-cell assays used to detect quorum-sensing signals in natural systems. Replacing the X-Gal substrate with the luminescent Beta-Glo® substrate increased the assay sensitivity by tenfold.

Notes:
The authors of this paper describe an assay that uses protease biomarkers to assess cell viability and cell death simultaneously in a population of cells. The assay detects an ubiquitous protease activity that is associated with live cells and a second protease activity that is associated with cells that have lost membrane integrity. The readouts are either fluorescent or fluorescent and luminescent. The assay can be performed in multiplex with other assays, such as caspase assays, to gain additional information on the cell population, and it is amenable to high-throughput screening.

Notes:
STAT1 is a transcription factor that is involved in a variety of cellular processes and behaves like a tumor suppressor in many ways. It is associated with apoptosis, inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases, and it may mediate the antitumor effects of IFN-γ. The authors of this study designed a bioluminescent reporter assay to identify small molecules that enhance STAT1-dependent gene expression. The bioluminescent assay was performed in 384-well plates using both stably and transiently transfected cell lines. The screening assay was robust, producing a Z´factor value of 0.92, and it identified three compounds that specifically enhanced STAT1-dependent transcriptional activity. Firefly luciferase activity in stable cell lines was assessed using the Bright-Glo® Luciferase Assay System; luciferase activity in the transiently transfected cells was monitored using the Dual-Luciferase® Assay System. Viability of cells in culture was monitored using the CellTiter-Glo® Assay.

Notes:
The authors of this study sought to identify inhibitors of myelin-reactive T-cell proliferation. They used spleen cells isolated from transgenic mice expressing T-cell receptors that specifically recognize myelin proteolipid protein residues 139-151 (PLP139-151). Spleen cell suspensions were prepared from the transgenic mice and exposed to PLP in the presence of test compounds. Proliferation was assessed relative to positive and negative controls using the CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay. Of the 41,184 compounds screened, 302 hits were obtained. These 302 compounds were next evaluated for nonspecific cytotoxicity using the CytoTox-ONE™ Homogeneous Membrane Integrity Assay, and compounds causing nonspecific toxicity were eliminated from further consideration. Z´-factor values for the primary screen were robust (> 0.5).

The CellTiter-Glo®-based assay was chosen because it did not require washing or medium removal; it involved minimal pipetting steps and had a short incubation time, which reduced time in the BSL3 containment facility. The assay was used to screen 100,000 compounds and identified several compounds that inhibited CPE while having a minimal effect on cell viability.

Identification of NVP-TAE684, a potent, selective and efficacious inhibitor of NPM-ALK
Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA
104
,
270-275
.
|
| |
Notes:
NVP-TAE684 was identified as an inhibitor of the constitutive anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) activity associated with the NPM-ALK fusion. NPM-ALK fusion protein is created by translocation event characteristic of anaplastic large-cell lymophomas. NVP-TAE684 was screened against a panel of 35 Ba/F3 cell lines expressing a variety of tyrosine kinases constitutively activated by fusion to TEL. The CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay was used to detect any decrease in viability as a result of treatment with NVP-TAE684. The inhibitory effect of NVP-TAE684 was specific for ALK-associated cell proliferation. In a secondary screen to determine potency, TAE684 was screened against two human anaplastic large-cell lymphoma cell lines. Inhibition of proliferation correlated with dosage and was assessed using the Bright-Glo® Luciferase Assay System.
