Biological Information
Background Information:
Ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT), also known as ASBT (apical sodium-bile acid transporter, encoded by SLC10A2), is enriched in intestine and has physiological function in the enterohepatic recirculation of bile acids and cholesterol metabolism. IBAT inhibition may have potential to treat hypercholesterolemia and colonic motor activity.

Testing Information
Procedure Summary:
Human ileal sodium/bile acid cotransporter (IBAT) expressed in HEK-293T/17 cells are plated. Test compound and/or vehicle is preincubated with cells (3 x 10^5/ml) in modified HBSS buffer for 20 minutes at 37C and 150 nM [3H]TCA is then added for an additional 30 minute incubation period. A lysate is obtained from solubilized cells and counted to determine [3H]TCA uptake. Reduction of [3H]TCA uptake by 50 percent or more (≥50%) relative to 10 µM Linerixibat indicates significant inhibitory activity.
Incubation:
30 min at 37°C
Control Inhibitor:
Linerixibat
Criteria For Significance:
≥ 50% Inhibition of [3H]TCA uptake relative to linerixibat response
Test Concentration / Dose:
Compounds are screened at 10, 3, 1, 0.3, 0.1, 0.03, 0.01 and 0.003 μM
Test Sample Requirements:
75 μl of 10 mM stock or 1 mg (pre-weighed) powder (assuming FW ≦500 and purity 100%)
Minimum Order Quantity:
16
