Description: Cellular Firefly Luciferase Assay (NFkB): The NF-kB activities of curcumin and analogs were determined by a cellular firefly luciferase assay. This assay utilized a commercially available cell line (Panomics 293T-luc cellular assay) developed for screening inhibitors of NF-kB. This cell line is stably transfected with a luciferase reporter controlled by an NF-kB dependent promoter. The cell is stimulated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) which activates NF-kB. NF-kB then binds to one of six promoter regions on the cell's DNA leading to the production of a luciferase enzyme. Luciferin is added to the cell lysates and the luciferase enzyme catalyzes a cleavage of luciferin leading to the emission of light.
