研究目的
To establish a practical method combined high throughput screening (HTS) with patch-clamp to screen potential blockers of chloride channels from natural herbal compounds.
研究成果
The screening assays combined HTS with patch-clamp revealed the new chloride channel blocker PC-4. The stable EYFP-H148Q/I153L-HeLa cell lines generated are suitable for other chloride channel assays and toxicology research.
研究不足
The study identified PC-4 as a new chloride channel blocker but noted that the functions and mechanisms of PC-4 on damaged cells and animals need further research. Additionally, there are still five kinds of hit compounds to be validated.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Constructed a HeLa cell line expressing EYFP-H148Q/I153L stably and validated the fluorophore of cell line as a reliable reporter of chloride channel activity for HTS.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Used 6988 natural compounds from the Chinese national compound library.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Included Opera? high-content imaging systems, FLIPR Tetra fluorescence plate readers, and patch-clamp equipment.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Screened compounds for chloride channel blocking activity using fluorescence intensity change rate and validated hits with patch-clamp analysis.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Evaluated blocking activity and inhibition percentage of chloride channel inhibitors using statistical analysis.
