Background Information: | The Ready-to-Assay™ LH Glycoprotein Hormone Receptor Frozen Cells are a simple, thaw-and-assay cell format for use in studying drug candidates (small molecules or biologics) targeting GPCRs. This assay assesses ligand (e.g. [ligand]) based activation of LHCGR GPCR activity via detection of increasing levels of intracellular calcium. The included cells overexpress LHCGR alongside exogenous high levels of a promiscuous G-protein, coupling the receptor to the calcium signaling pathway. ChemiBrite cells also express a clytin variant, allowing for luminescent as well as fluorescent signal detection. Upon activation of LHCGR , the resulting calcium activity can be assayed in either detection mode. Ready-to-assay kits consist of two vials of the stably modified clonal cell line in a convenient thaw-and-use format. |
