| Description: | CHO-K1/A2aR cells were cultured in DMEM/F12 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 800 μg/ml bleomycin. The cells were digested with the cell separation buffer during the experiment. The cells were resuspended in the balanced salt buffer containing 20 mM HEPES and 0.1% bovine serum albumin and counted, and the cell density was adjusted to 106 cells/ml. In the 384-well plate, each well was added with 5 μl of cell suspension, and 2.5 μl of test compound (4× concentration) formulated with the balanced salt buffer containing 20 mM HEPES, 0.1% bovine serum albumin, 54 μM rolipram and 2.7 U/ml adenosine deaminase, and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. Each well was then added with 2.5 μl of ethyl carbazole (4× concentration) formulated with the balanced salt buffer containing 20 mM HEPES, 0.1% bovine serum albumin, 54 μM rolipram and 2.7 U/ml adenosine deaminase, and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes. The final concentrations of the compounds were: 10000, 2000, 400, 80, 16, 3.2, 0.64, 0.128, 0.0256, 0.00512, and 0.001024 nM. The final concentration of ethyl carbazole was 20 nM. Intracellular cAMP concentration was detected with the cAMP dynamic 2 kit. cAMP-d2 and Anti-cAMP-Eu-Cryptate were diluted respectively with the cAMP lysis buffer at a ratio of 1:4. Each well was added with 5 μl of diluted cAMP-d2, followed by addition of 5 μl of diluted Anti-cAMP-Eu-Cryptate, and the plate was incubated at room temperature in the dark for 1 hour. The HTRF signal values were read by the PHERAstar multi-function microplate reader. IC50 values of inhibition activity of the compounds were calculated by Graphpad Prism software. |
