A Novel Bioassay for the Activity Determination of Therapeutic Human Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP)

Abstract: BackgroundRecombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) is an important peptide-based therapeutic drug indicated for the treatment of acute heart failure. Accurate determination of the potency of therapeutic rhBNP is crucial for the safety and efficacy of the drug. The current bioassay involves use of rabbit aortic strips, with experiments being complicated and time-consuming and markedly variable in results. Animal-less methods with better precision and accuracy should be explored. We have therefore dev… Show more

“…The reporter assay showed high precision with intra-assay CV being 8.3% and inter-assay CV being 14.1%; high accuracy with 80%, 100% and 120% recovery rate being 99.2%, 102.4% and 99.0% respectively; and great linearity with R 2 of linear fitting equation being 0.99. Given the specificity of reporter assay was consistent with ELISA assay, which has been validated in former study [11] , it is unnecessary to evaluate it again. Besides, no significant difference was found in results of reporter assay and 293GCAC3-based ELISA assay (paired T test, p = 0.630).…”

“…Given the well-characterized pathways activated by BNP, quantification of cGMP in cells exposed to rhBNP has been explored as attractive alternative assay. Indeed, several types of cGMP-involved assays for rhBNPs have been reported in recent years, including the measurement of cGMP in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) or PC12 cells by radioimmunoassay, as well as a modified cell line 293GCAC3 by ELISA assay, which was developed by our previous work [11] .…”

“…The reporter gene assay (RGA) has been widely adopted as a tool in developing potency assays for biologics based on its advantages of reflecting regulation of signal pathways as mode of action (MoA) [19][20][21][22]. VEGF signal pathway has been extensively explored over the past decades.…”
