Embodiment Construction
[0023] As used herein, the term "compound" or "agent" refers to a biological or chemical compound such as a simple or complex organic molecule, peptide, protein or oligonucleotide. A "test compound" as used herein refers to a "compound" or "agent" used in a method according to the invention to assess whether said compound modulates CRH signaling activity.
[0024] "CRH signaling" as used herein refers to a change in gene transcription in a cell following activation of the corticotropin releasing hormone receptor by CRH in said cell. It thereby induces a CRH-specific gene expression profile. Changes in transcript levels can be assessed at the protein or gene, RNA level.
[0025] "CRH responsive activity" as used herein generally refers to changes in detectable cellular parameters resulting from exposure of said cells to CRH. Detectable cellular parameters include changes in membrane potential, changes in the enzymatic activity of enzymes that regulate CRH signaling in said ce...
