  • Mammalian cell lines expressing functional nematode acetylcholine receptors and use thereof for high-throughput screening assays
    Patent number: 10345292
    Abstract: The following discloses mammalian cells lines that stably express functional nematode acetylcholine receptor subunits. The resulting expression of functional ion channels has been made possible by the stable co-expression of the chaperone protein, RIC3. These cell lines are extremely useful for the high throughput screening (HTS) of compounds, to identify new candidate parasiticidal, including nematocidal, active ingredients.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 9, 2015
    Date of Patent: July 9, 2019
    Assignees: BOEHRINGER INGELHEIM ANIMAL HEALTH INC., SANOFI
    Inventors: Lance Hammerland, Brenda Bondesen, Jean-Marie Chambard, Thierry Vermat, Werner Dittrich, Michel Partiseti, Qing Zhou-Liu, Cathy Cojean, Rachid Boukaiba, Eric Tagat
