Reaktionsschritte

A reaction was performed on a 384-well plate (Greiner Bio One) using a reaction volume of 24 μL, and all the samples were diluted with an assay buffer (50 mM tris buffer, pH 7.4, 10% glycerol). 0.8 mM NADPH, 6 mM glucose 6-phosphate, 0.35 units/mL glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (Sigma Chemical), and 3 mM magnesium chloride and a microsome fraction as an enzyme source were added to the plate, and a solution containing a test compound dissolved in a dimethyl sulfoxide/methanol solution was added at a final concentration of 0.1%. After the addition of the test compound, cortisone at a final concentration of 160 nM was added to start the reaction, and the reaction was performed at room temperature for 3 h. 25 μL of 100 mM carbenoxolone (Sigma Chemical) was added to terminate the reaction, and the amount of cortisol produced was measured with RUBYstar (BMG LABTECH JAPAN Ltd.) using a cortisol prototype kit (Cisbio International) according to the package insert. The IC50 values of the compounds of Examples are shown below.
