鈣通量分析是篩選G蛋白偶聯(lián)受體（GPCR）藥品發(fā)現(xiàn)的方法。該比值鈣測定試劑盒允許均勻測量由G蛋白偶聯(lián)受體或鈣通道引起的細(xì)胞內(nèi)鈣變化。表達(dá)通過鈣傳遞信號的GPCR的細(xì)胞被Fura-2AM預(yù)加載，F(xiàn)ura-2AM可以穿過細(xì)胞膜。一旦進(jìn)入細(xì)胞內(nèi)，親脂封閉基團(tuán)Fura-2AM被酯酶裂解，導(dǎo)致帶負(fù)電荷的熒光染料留在細(xì)胞內(nèi)，其熒光波長在與鈣結(jié)合時(shí)藍(lán)移。當(dāng)細(xì)胞受到激動劑刺激時(shí)，受體發(fā)出細(xì)胞內(nèi)鈣離子釋放的信號，從而大大提高Fura-2在短波處的熒光強(qiáng)度。Fura-2的比色特性使該試劑盒成為比單波長Fluo-4測定細(xì)胞鈣濃度的理想工具。通過單次添加，該分析很容易在高透性環(huán)境中進(jìn)行。該方法可用于96孔或384孔微孔板，且易于自動化。百螢生物是AAT Bioquest的中國代理商，為您提供的Screen Quest 免洗Fura-2鈣檢測試劑盒
