Target Cell Background
Glioma 261 (GL261) is a frequently used murine glioma model. It was induced via intracranial injection of methylcholanthrene followed by serial intracranial and subcutaneous transplantations of tumor fragments into syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. By the mid-1990s, multiple groups had established a permanent cell line from the tumor.

Short Description
GL261-cell based In Vitro High-throughput Screening (HTS) Assay
Assay Description
HTS is one of the modern technologies used in cancer drug discovery. This technique enables to screen or assay thousands of chemical compounds against a target of interest within a short period. HTS is also useful in screening different libraries such as synthetic compounds, combinatorial chemistry, peptides and genomic libraries and obtaining toxicological and pharmacokinetic data related to chemical compounds. HTS has gained much attention among scientists and industries as a large number of compounds prepared by chemical synthesis methods can be screened within a short period, which can reduce the cost of drug discovery and animal use. HTS consist of major steps such as identification of targets, preparation of reagents, management of test compounds, development of suitable assay procedures and screening.
