Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  FLIPR Assay
Description:  On the day before the measurement day, CHO cells expressing human GPR120 were plated at 10000 cells per well in a 384-well black plate (#3702, Corning) and incubated overnight in a CO2 incubator. On the day of the measurement, 4 μM Fluo-4 AM (fluorescence calcium indicator reagent) was incubated to be introduced into the human GPR120 expression CHO cells in the presence of 0.08% Pluronic F-127 in a CO2 incubator for 90 minutes. To the cells was added the test compound diluted with HBSS solution containing 20 mM HEPES and 2.5 mM probenecid. Variations in the intracellular calcium concentration were measured by Fluorescence Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR; Molecular Devices) to examine the agonist action, and EC50 values were calculated.
