Cyn Monkey PPARa Reporter Assay Kit
Product Description and Product Data
This is an all-inclusive cell-based luciferase reporter assay kit targeting the Cynomolgus Monkey Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Alpha. INDIGO’s cPPAR alpha reporter assay utilizes proprietary non-human mammalian cells that have been engineered to provide constitutive expression of the cPPAR alpha. In addition to cPPAR alpha Reporter Cells, this kit provides two optimized media for use during cell culture and in diluting the user’s test samples, a reference agonist, Luciferase Detection Reagent, and a cell culture-ready assay plate. The principal application of this assay is in the screening of test samples to quantify any functional activity, either agonist or antagonist, that they may exert against cPPAR alpha. This kit provides researchers with clear, reproducible results, exceptional cell viability post-thaw, and consistent results lot to lot. Kits must be stored at -80C. Do not store in liquid nitrogen. Note: reporter cells cannot be refrozen or maintained in extended culture.

Data
Target Background
INDIGO’s Cynomolgus Monkey Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor Alpha (cPPARα) Reporter Assay System utilizes proprietary mammalian cells engineered to provide constitutive, high-level expression of Cyn Monkey PPARα (nr1c1), a ligand-dependent transcription factor. Because these cells incorporate a responsive luciferase reporter gene, quantifying expressed luciferase activity provides a sensitive surrogate measure of cPPARα activity in treated cells. The primary application of this reporter assay system is in the screening of test samples to quantify functional activity, either agonist or antagonist, that they may exert against cynomolgus monkey PPARα.
