| Description: | HEK293 cells stably transfected with the human NAAA coding sequence cloned from a human spleen cDNA library (catalog no. 639124, Clontech, Mountain View, Calif., USA) were used as enzyme source. The assay was run in 96-well microplates (Black OptiPlate -96 F; PerkinElmer, Massachusetts, USA), in a total reaction volume of 200 μL. hNAAA protein preparation (4.0 μg) was pre-incubated for 10 minutes with various concentrations of test compounds or vehicle control (5% DMSO) in 100 mM citrate/phosphate buffer (pH 4.5) containing 3.0 mM DTT, 0.1% NP40 0.1%, 0.05% BSA, 150 mM NaCl. N-(4-methyl-2-oxo-chromen-7-yl)-hexadecanamide (PAMCA) was used as a substrate (5.0 μM) and the reaction carried for 50 min at 37° C. Fluorescence was measured with EnVision 2014 Multilabel Reader (PerkinElmer, Massachusetts, USA) using an excitation wavelength of 340 nm and emission 450 nm. IC50 values were calculated by non-linear regression analysis of log[concentration]/inhibition curves using GraphPad Prism 5 (GraphPad Software Inc., CA, USA) applying a standard slope curve fitting. |
