ICI 118,551 hydrochloride

Kinase experiment:

One hour prior to assay, the growth media are removed from the wells and replaced with 50 uL of Hanks’balanced salt solution that also contained 0.5 mM of MgCl2•6H2O, 0.4 mM of MgSO4•7H2O, 20 mM of N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N’-2ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 1.2 mM of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), 0.95 mM of CaCl2, and 0.05% of BSA. Each plate is placed in a 37°C shaking water bath for dose-response studies. In one study, various doses of isoproterenol (10-9-10-5 M) and β1- and β2-receptor-selective partial agonists (tazolol, prenalterol, salbutamol, and terbutaline, 10-6 and 10-5 M, respectively) are added (5 wells/dose/plate) and incubated for 10 min. In another study, the cells are stimulated with 10 μM isoproterenol in the presence or absence of various doses of β-adrenoceptor antagonists. The incubations are terminated after 10 min by the addition of 100 μL of 10% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) (final TCA concentration of 5%). TCA is removed twice by extraction with H20-saturated ether, and samples are dried at 80°C overnight, prior to resuspension in 50 mM of sodium acetate buffer. The CAMP content is measured with a radioimmunoassay kit.
