Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Cell-Based Assay
Description:  The cell-based assays is based on IL-6 ELISA quantification. Briefly, A549 cells are cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS medium. When cells reach 80% confluence they are trypsin treated and seeded 180 ul/well in 96-well plate at 2.5×10^4 cells/well. Then, 20 ul of compound serial dilutions (starting at 10 uM, 10 points) are added to the cell plate; incubate for 30 min at 37 C and stimulated with 2 ng/ml human IL-1beta 37 C, 5% CO2 overnight. The next day 100 ul of cell supernatant per well are analyzed on a Human IL-6 Quantikine ELISA kit from R&D Systems.
