Figure 1. Urocortin-induced concentration-dependent stimulation of intracellular calcium mobilization in CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells. The cells were loaded with Calcium-4 (Cat. No. R8142; Molecular Devices) prior to being stimulated with agonist Urocortin. The intracellular calcium change was measured by FLIPR. The relative fluorescent units (∆RFU) were plotted against the log of the cumulative doses of Urocortin (Mean ± SEM, n = 3). The EC50 of Urocortin on this cell was 42.35 nM.

Notes:
EC50 value is calculated with four parameter logistic equation:
Y=Bottom + (Top-Bottom) / (1+10^((LogEC50-X)*Hill Slope))
X is the logarithm of concentration. Y is the response
Y is ∆RFU and starts at Bottom and goes to Top with a sigmoid shape. »

Figure 2. Dose dependent stimulation of intracellular cAMP accumulation upon treatment with Urocortin in CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells. d2 acceptor fluorophore-labeled cAMP (Cat. No. 62AM4PEC; Revvity) and intracellular cAMP in CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells competitively bind with Europium Cryptate-labeled anti-cAMP monoclonal antibody. The FRET signal decreases as the intracellular cAMP concentration rises and was measured by plate reader (Pherastar, BMG). The EC50 of Urocortin on CHO-K1/CRF2/Gα15 cells was 0.18 nM. »
