Differential nuclear staining assay for high-throughput screening to identify cytotoxic compounds.
As large quantities of novel synthetic molecules continue to be generated there is a challenge to identify therapeutic agents with cytotoxic activity. Here we introduce a Differential Nuclear Staining (DNS) assay adapted to live-cell imaging for high throughput screening (HTS) that utilizes two fluorescent DNA intercalators, Hoechst 33342 and Propidium iodide (PI). Since Hoechst can readily cro...
متن کاملPharmacophore Based Virtual Screening Approach to Identify Selective PDE4B Inhibitors
Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) has been established as a promising target in asthma andchronic obstructive pulmonary disease. PDE4B subtype selective inhibitors are known toreduce the dose limiting adverse effect associated with non-selective PDE4B inhibitors. Thismakes the development of PDE4B subtype selective inhibitors a desirable research goal. Toachieve this goal, ligand based pharmacophore m...

متن کاملAutomated High-Content Assay for Compounds Selectively Toxic to Trypanosoma cruzi in a Myoblastic Cell Line
BACKGROUND Chagas disease, caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, represents a very important public health problem in Latin America where it is endemic. Although mostly asymptomatic at its initial stage, after the disease becomes chronic, about a third of the infected patients progress to a potentially fatal outcome due to severe damage of heart and gut tissues. There is an urgent...
متن کاملRapid screening for bacteria capable of degrading toxic organic compounds
Routine procedures for isolating and characterizing microorganisms capable of degrading toxic chemicals are time consuming and labor intensive. The objective of this paper is to describe a new method for screening aerobic bacterial isolates and consortia that will rapidly determine metabolic capacity for various toxic chemicals and access the use of various substrates as inducers in the degrada...
