1 The ipro ipsc-derived cells going high throughput: new strategies for ion channels drug discovery Silvia Cainarca Ncardia Applications Workshop November 30 th, 2017
2 Rationale: Early drug discovery, run in High Throughput Screening format, largely employs heterologous recombinant systems over-expressing a target of interest in a disease-unrelated host cell line An ideal pharmacological profiling would rely on testing the drug candidate against human disease-relevant cells but this has intrinsic limitations Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hipscs) represent a valid tool since they could be: obtained from patients in vitro cultured and expanded for long periods genetically modified differentiated into virtually any cell type Korean J Intern Med 2017;32(1): Furthermore, merging of optogenetics and ipsc-based technologies provides informative and cost-effective drug screening tool to achieve fast control of specific cell events -2- Silvia Cainarca - Ncardia Workshop 2017
3 Project Goals: Pharmacological characterization of human ipsc-derived neurons for high throughput drug screening (HTS), employing instrumentations and technologies commonly and broadly used for running HTS on recombinant cell lines Development of ipsc-derived opto-neurons suitable for high-throughput screening (HTS) HTS-compatible platform based on the use of optogenetics for drug screening, using human ipsc-derived cardiomyocytes -3- Silvia Cainarca - Ncardia Workshop 2017

21 Concluding Remarks Opto-Neurons in HTS The functional presence of glutamate receptors was shown using both a Ca 2+ and membrane potential dye Among the different glutamate receptor it was demonstrated the presence of NMDAR, using specific agonists and antagonist Applying different concentration of K + it was possible to measure the presence of voltagegated Ca 2+ channels and in particular of the L-type Ca 2+ channels by testing specific state dependent blocker It is ongoing the generation of an optoneurons system, for a fast and less toxic Ca 2+ measurement and for setting up fine tuned light-mediated use/state-dependency FLIPR TETRA assays Light-paced ipsc-derived Cardiomyocytes Syncytium assays validated for optogenetic control of recombinant / native ion channel function ChR2 light-pacing of: Recombinant voltage-gated Na + or Ca 2+ channels ipsc-derived cardiomyocytes beating up to 1.5 Hz Frequency / use-dependency studies enabled -21- Silvia Cainarca - Ncardia Workshop 2017

More informationChannels can be activated by ligand-binding (chemical), voltage change, or mechanical changes such as stretch.
1. Describe the basic structure of an ion channel. Name 3 ways a channel can be "activated," and describe what occurs upon activation. What are some ways a channel can decide what is allowed to pass through?
