Microsphere-based flow cytometry protease assays for use in protease activity detection and high-throughput screening.
This protocol describes microsphere-based protease assays for use in flow cytometry and high-throughput screening. This platform measures a loss of fluorescence from the surface of a microsphere due to the cleavage of an attached fluorescent protease substrate by a suitable protease enzyme. The assay format can be adapted to any site or protein-specific protease of interest and results can be measured in both real time and as endpoint fluorescence assays on a flow cytometer. Endpoint assays are easily adapted to microplate format for flow cytometry high-throughput analysis and inhibitor screening. Topics: Animals; Biotinylation; Flow Cytometry; Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer; Green Fluorescent Proteins; High-Throughput Screening Assays; Humans; Inflammation; Kinetics; Microspheres; Peptide Hydrolases; Peptides; Reproducibility of Results; Temperature | 2010 |
Inhibitory activity of prostaglandin E2 production by the synthetic 2'-hydroxychalcone analogues: Synthesis and SAR study.
A series of 2'-hydroxychalcones has been synthesized and screened for their in vitro inhibitory activities of cyclooxygenase-2 catalyzed prostaglandin production from lipopolysaccharide-treated RAW 264.7 cells. Structure-activity relationship study suggested that inhibitory activity against prostaglandin E(2) production was governed to a greater extent by the substituent on B ring of the chalcone, and most of the active compounds have at least two methoxy or benzyloxy groups on B ring. The relationship between chalcone structures and their PGE(2) inhibitory activities was also interpreted by docking study on cyclooxygenase-2.
