CHEMBL5733112

Receptor Functional Assay: Cells were resuspended in DMEM/F12 (Hyclone) supplemented with 1 g/L BSA and 300 μM isobutyl-methylxanthine. Cells were then plated in a 384-well plate (Proxiplate Plus 384; 509052761; Perkin-Elmer) at a density of 2,000 cells/well and incubated with antagonist for 30 min at 37° C. Human α-CGRP was then added to the cells at a final concentration of 1.2 nM and incubated an additional 20 min at 37° C. Following agonist stimulation, the cells were processed for cAMP determination using the two-step procedure according to the manufacturer's recommended protocol (HTRF cAMP dynamic 2 assay kit; 62AM4PEC; Cisbio). Raw data were transformed into concentration of cAMP using a standard curve then dose response curves were plotted and inflection point (IP) values were determined.
