Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  AR Antagonist Assay
Description:  Human AR cDNA cloned into pCMV vector, GRE-LUC, and CMV-renilla-LUC were used to transfect cells. HEK-293 cells (ATCC) were plated at 120,000 cells per well of a 24 well plate in DME+5% csFBS (Fisher Scientific, Waltham, Mass.). The cells were transfected using Lipofectamine (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, Calif.) with 0.25 μg GRE-LUC, 0.010 μg CMV-LUC (renilla luciferase) and 25 ng of the AR. The cells were treated 24 hrs after transfection with test articles (9-concentration for IC50/EC50 calculations or 1 single concentration at 1 μM) in combination with 0.1 nM R1881. Luciferase assay was performed 48 hrs after transfection. Firefly luciferase assay values were normalized to renilla luciferase values and were graphed using graphpad prism software (La Jolla, Calif.). Enzalutamide was used as the positive control.
