Calcium profiles within each ligand pair were scaled on the time and amplitude axis. For every ligand pair, the calculated addition of the single ligand controls (resulting in the expected trace) for all experiments were used for scaling. We used all expected traces to generate a mean expected trace. The peak amplitude for every expected trace of each individual experiment was amplitude scaled to the peak of the mean expected trace. The time to peak for each expected trace was scaled to the time to peak for the mean expected trace. The scaling factors for the expected traces for each experiment were applied to the remaining traces for that experiment (i.e., ligand1, ligand 2, delayed additions, and simultaneous treatments).

The signaling pathways that evoke the above responses to each ligand may or may not be unique, raising the possibility that a ligand response may be altered in the presence of another ligand. The dual ligand screen was implemented to identify whether such interactions exist, and if so, how prevalent they are. The results of the simultaneous addition of ligands are compared to an “expected” value that equals the additive sum of each individual ligand. Interaction between pathways would be indicated by a non-additive response and vice versa. In May of 2003, AFCS decided to switch the cell system to RAW26.7 cells. RAW 264.7 is a good candidate for study because of its responsiveness to a variety of ligands, and is also amenable to genetic manipulation (introduction of RNAi, dominant negative molecules or mutant molecules) and microscopy, approaches critical to the goals of study of interactive signal transduction set by the AfCS. From the experience with the ligand screen in primary B cells, the decision was made that dual ligand screen would be implemented for RAW264.7 cells, and the data for the single ligand screen could be extracted from those of the dual ligand screen. Data presented are examples from the dual ligand screen from both primary B cells and RAW264.7 cells.

  2. BLC SDF ELC SLC LPA 2MA I04 I10 TER DIM PGE TNF CGS Calcium 40L • Dual ligand screen for calcium assays in both primary B cells and RAW264.7 cells is in the data curation stage. • S1P is able to induce calcium transients in RAW264.7, but it is not categorized as a stimulating ligand for RAW264.7 cells because of its low and somewhat inconsistent responses. Instead S1P is used as a non-stimulating ligand in RAW264.7 cells. • A minimum of 50 non-additive interactions for B cells and 15 non-additive interactions for RAW264.7 cells exist in the calcium dual ligand screen. • With the development of the RNAi technology in RAW264.7 cells, the calcium assay could be a very valuable tool to detect changes in the relevant early signaling pathways in targeted gene knock-down cells.

Figure 6. Combined summary of the calcium and cAMP dual ligand screen in RAW264.7 cells. Ligands are listed at the left and bottom sides of the matrix. Ligands in blue are calcium responders, and ligands in red are the cAMP stimulators, and ligands in black are non-stimulators for either assay. Red boxes indicate greater than additive interactions; green boxes indicate less than additive interactions; white boxes indicate the interaction is either additive or the call has not been made; gray boxes mean not tested because both ligands are non-responsive in either assays. Letters inside the boxes reflect the interactions observed with cAMP assays (A) or calcium assays (C).
