A cell-based high-throughput screening assay for radiation susceptibility using automated cell counting
BACKGROUND Radiotherapy is one of the mainstays in the treatment for cancer, but its success can be limited due to inherent or acquired resistance. Mechanisms underlying radioresistance in various cancers are poorly understood and available radiosensitizers have shown only modest clinical benefit. There is thus a need to identify new targets and drugs for more effective sensitization of cancer ...
متن کاملA cell-based high-throughput screening assay for Farnesoid X receptor agonists.
OBJECTIVE To develop a high-throughput screening assay for Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonists based on mammalian one-hybrid system (a chimera receptor gene system) for the purpose of identifying new lead compounds for dyslipidaemia drug from the chemical library. METHODS cDNA encoding the human FXR ligand binding domain (LBD) was amplified by RT-PCR from a human liver total mRNA and fused to...
متن کاملDevelopment of a high-throughput screening cancer cell-based luciferase refolding assay for identifying Hsp90 inhibitors.
The 90 kDa heat-shock protein (Hsp90) and other cochaperones allow for proper folding of nascent or misfolded polypeptides. Cancer cells exploit these chaperones by maintaining the stability of mutated and misfolded oncoproteins and allowing them to evade proteosomal degradation. Inhibiting Hsp90 is an attractive strategy for cancer therapy, as the concomitant degradation of multiple oncoprotei...
متن کاملA cell-based PDE4 assay in 1536-well plate format for high-throughput screening.
The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are intracellular enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of 3,'5'-cyclic nucleotides, such as cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), to their corresponding 5'nucleotide monophosphates. These enzymes play an important role in controlling cellular concentrations of cyclic nucleotides and thus regulate a variet...
متن کاملMethods for High-Content, High-Throughput Image-Based Cell Screening
Visual inspection of cells is a fundamental tool for discovery in biological science. Modern robotic microscopes are able to capture thousands of images from massively parallel experiments such as RNA interference (RNAi) or small-molecule screens. Such screens also benefit from lab automation, making large screens, e.g., genome-scale knockdown experiments, more feasible and common. As such, the...
