Upon binding agonist, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is dimerized and auto-phosphorylated to activate downstream pathway that induces diverse physiology and pathology processes. Conventional methods for evaluation of EGFR inhibitors are limited. This study describes a duplexed on-microbead binding assay allowing competitive EGFR inhibitors to be quantificationally evaluated in vitro. Polystyrene microbeads barcoded by fluoresceine isothiocyanate fluorescence as high brightness and low brightness microspheres were coated with receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligand-epidermal growth factor (EGF)/stem cell factor (SCF) and ATP/GTP, respectively. High and low brightness microbeads were mixed and incubated with EGFR and its competitive inhibitor in binding assay buffer. Phycoerythrin (PE) fluorescence-labelled antibody was employed to report the level of EGFR binding to EGF/SCF and ATP/GTP. Values were numbered via PE molecules assessed by quantitative flow cytometry. Results from this study demonstrated that incubation with EGFR identified by PE-labelled antibody can make EGF- and ATP-coated microbeads luminous. And EGF or ATP-competitive EGFR inhibitors, respectively, alleviated this in a concentration-dependent manner. Coating microbeads with SCF or GTP as a negative control cannot capture EGFR. The duplexed on-microbead binding assay in this study might be useful for discovering ligand- and ATP-competitive EGFR inhibitors in a rapid and quantificational approach.

D004815 Epidermal Growth Factor A 6-kDa polypeptide growth factor initially discovered in mouse submaxillary glands. Human epidermal growth factor was originally isolated from urine based on its ability to inhibit gastric secretion and called urogastrone. Epidermal growth factor exerts a wide variety of biological effects including the promotion of proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal and EPITHELIAL CELLS. It is synthesized as a transmembrane protein which can be cleaved to release a soluble active form.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
