The CellSensor™ NFAT-bla HEK 293T cell line contains a beta-lactamase reporter gene under the control of the Nuclear Factor of Activated T Cells (NFAT) response element stably integrated into HEK 293T cells. Fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) was used to isolate clones responsive to stimulation of the NFAT pathway by PMA (Phorbol 12-Myristate 13-Acetate) and Thapsagargin (Thaps). The cell line was validated for DMSO tolerance, cell number, stimulation time, substrate loading conditions, and EC50 concentration of Thaps at fixed concentration of PMA. The CellSensor™ NFAT-bla HEK 293T cell line responds to agonist treatment as expected from the literature and can be adapted for high-throughput screening (including coupling of receptors to the NFAT pathway) for agonists or antagonists with compound libraries. Candidate drugs can also be tested for dose response against this cell line. Academic and non-profit customers, please inquire for special pricing.
