A novel bioluminescent bacterial biosensor for measurement of Ara-CTP and cytarabine potentiation by fludarabine in seven leukaemic cell lines
Leukemia Research(2013)
Abstract
This study evaluates an in vitro biosensor assay capable of detecting the intracellular levels of the tri-phosphorylated form of cytarabine (Ara-CTP) within one working day. The biosensor predicted the response of seven leukaemic cell lines with varying known sensitivities to cytarabine alone and in combination with fludarabine. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), 3-day assessment of cellular viable mass, and flow cytometric assessment of apoptosis were used to validate biosensor performance. A correlation between the biosensor results and Ara-CTP quantitation by HPLC was confirmed (R=0.972). The biosensor was also capable of detecting enhanced accumulation of Ara-CTP following sequential pre-treatment of leukaemic cells with cytarabine±fludarabine.
