Abstract

The invention relates to a method for in-vitro screening inducers, particularly to a method for in-vitro screening of PXR (pregnane X receptor) activation characteristics, which comprises the following steps: constructing a reporter gene vector; culturing cells, and screening G418 working concentration; carrying out transient transfection of cells; screening stably transfected cell clones; inducing and identifying stably transfected cell strain with a tested drug (ligand drug); and screening the PXR activation characteristics. When the PXR is activated by the ligand drug, the PXR can regulate the expression CYP3A gene. PXR gene-deficient mice lose drug inductivity of CYP3A. Contrarily, hPXR (human pregnane X receptor) receptor in activation state expressed in liver of a transgenic mouse can lead to continuous high expression of CYP3A enzyme. The method of the invention establishes critical technology for high-throughput screening based on the passway and carries out screening of PXR activation characteristics from mass compounds in a compound library at the early stage of drug development, and can reduce the risk of adverse drug interactions after the new drug comes into the market, and greatly reduce development cost.
