Fluorometric imaging plate reader (FLIPR) membrane potential dyes (FMP-Red-Dye and FMP-Blue-Dye) were evaluated for the detection of compounds acting either as positive allosteric modulators or agonists on the GABA(A) receptor (GABA(A)R). A stable HEK293 cell line with constitutive expression of the rat GABA(A)R alpha1, beta2, and gamma2 genes was used to establish a functional high-throughput screening (HTS) assay based on measurement of the membrane potential change in living cells. The assay was validated with the FLIPR technology for identification of agonists and positive allosteric modulators using GABA and diazepam as model compounds. The FMP-Red-Dye showed better performance than the FMP-Blue-Dye, and the effects induced by GABA and diazepam were comparable to electrophysiology data. Subsequently, the assay was also validated with an ultra-HTS approach known as microarrayed compound screening (microARCS). The LOPAC library was used in a test screen for an initial assessment of the technology. Finally, the FLIPR and microARCS technologies were tested with a larger screening campaign. A focused library of 3520 putative positive modulators was tested with the FLIPR assay, and a diverse subset of 84,480 compounds was selected for screening with the microARCS technology. All hits were subjected to verification using the FLIPR technology, and confirmed hits were subsequently evaluated by EC50 determination. Finally, selected hits were further confirmed with electrophysiology testing.
