Abstract

Cellular energy metabolism is recognized to have a central role in many cell processes and is an increasingly important area of study in many research fields such as cancer, immunology, obesity, diabetes and neurology. To facilitate these studies, we have taken advantage of key features of bioluminescence, such as increased sensitivity and wide assay windows, to develop assays for measuring energy metabolites. These assays are easy-to-use plate-based assays with streamlined protocols that require minimal cell sample processing. The assays can be used to measure consumption of major fuel sources such as glucose and glutamine from the cell medium, as well as lactate and glutamate secretion. The sensitivity (1-5pmol/sample), broad linear range (0.1-100 uM) and wide dynamic range (maximum signal-to-background > 100 fold) allow all four metabolites to be measured from the same sample of medium and over time, with earlier detection from fewer cells compared to other methods. The assays are also sensitive enough to detect intracellular levels of glutamine, glutamate and lactate and changes in those levels. Additional assays have been developed to measure glucose uptake and NAD/NADH levels in cells. Analysis of these metabolites provides information regarding the energetic state of the cell. In this poster we provide examples demonstrating the utility of these assays to detect a glycolytic shift in cancer cells, monitor cell growth and differentiation with associated changes in glucose uptake and glycolysis, and evaluate insulin sensitivity in primary adipocytes.
