Johnson & Johnson, PRD, San Diego, California, Department of Pharmacology & Lead Discovery, Neurocrine Bisciences, Inc., San Diego, California Monoamine transporters regulate the concentration of neurotransmitters in the synapse following neurotransmission and are very important drug targets in the pharmaceutical industry. Because of the labor-intensive nature of functional uptake assays using radioactive substrates, high-throughput screening for monoamine transporter inhibitors has been limited to radioligand binding assays. In this article, the authors describe the development of a 384-well, high-throughput functional screening assay for norepinephrine transporter inhibitors using the FLIPRTetra and a recently identified fluorescent substrate, 4-(4-dimethylaminostyryl)- N-methyl-pyridinium (ASP+).
