| | Nox1 Assay |
| Description: | CHO cells modified to stably express human Nox1 were grown in DMEM/F12 gibco 31331 containing 10% FBS and 1% pen/strep at 37° C. in air with 5% CO2. Cells were collected from cultures by Trypsin mediated detachment of adherent cells.A luminescence assay was used that measures the production of reactive oxygen species in whole cells. Luminol reacts with superoxide and emits light and light is measured with luminometer (Synergy/2 microplate reader, BioTek).Inhibitors were diluted in a compound plate in DMSO (100%) then transferred to Hanks buffer solution and in assay plate DMSO were 2% in all the wells.Assay procedure, final well volume 100 μl, 96-well plate: Inhibitors (20 μl) were added, then cell suspension was (100 000 cells/well), incubate 37° C. for 30 min, add PMA (0.9 μM/well) to Luminol reaction mix (Luminol 0.1 mM/well and HRP 3.2 U/well) then this stimulation mix into wells. The plate were then immediately read (steps 5 min each reading) and for 1 h. Data was calculated for the linear part of the curve and IC50 determined.Compounds (Nox inhibitors) were diluted at 3× working concentration and titrated from 200 μM to 0.003 μM in 11 steps. |
