Colony Stimulating Factor 1 Receptor (CSF1R) is a receptor tyrosine kinase primarily expressed on monocytes, macrophages, and microglia. It binds two primary ligands CSF1 (M-CSF) and IL-34, promoting survival, proliferation, and differentiation of these immune cells. CSF1R signaling is essential for tissue homeostasis, inflammation, and innate immune responses. Aberrant CSF1R activity is associated with cancer progression, immune evasion, and neurodegenerative disorders. In oncology, CSF1R inhibitors aim to reprogram tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and enhance anti-tumor immunity. In the CNS, CSF1R is a therapeutic target in diseases like Alzheimer's and ALS due to its role in microglial activation and neuroinflammation.
The AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human Phospho-CSF1R (Tyr723) Detection Kit is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of phospho-CSF1R (Tyr723) in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology.

The Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assay measures a protein target when phosphorylated at a specific residue.
The assay uses two antibodies which recognize the phospho epitope and a distal epitope on the targeted protein. AlphaLISA assays require two bead types: Acceptor and Donor beads. Acceptor beads are coated with a proprietary CaptSure™ agent to specifically immobilize the assay specific antibody, labeled with a CaptSure tag. Donor beads are coated with streptavidin to capture one of the detection antibodies, which is biotinylated. In the presence of phosphorylated protein, the two antibodies bring the Donor and Acceptor beads in close proximity whereby the singlet oxygen transfers energy to excite the Acceptor bead, allowing the generation of a luminescent Alpha signal. The amount of light emission is directly proportional to the quantity of phosphoprotein present in the sample.
The two-plate protocol involves culturing and treating the cells in a 96-well plate before lysis, then transferring lysates into a 384-well OptiPlate™ plate before the addition of Phospho-AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra detection reagents. This protocol permits the cells viability and confluence to be monitored. In addition, lysates from a single well can be used to measure multiple targets.
Detection of Phosphorylated target protein with AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra reagents can be performed in a single plate used for culturing, treatment, and lysis. No washing steps are required. This HTS designed protocol allows for miniaturization while maintaining AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra quality.
PBMCs were isolated from healthy donors and cultured for 7 days in complete DMEM containing 20 ng/mL M-CSF to differentiate them into macrophages. Macrophages were seeded in a 96-well plate (40,000 cells/well) in complete DMEM, and incubated overnight at 37°C, 5% CO2. The cells were starved for 2 hours in HBSS + 0.1% BSA and then treated with 100 ng/mL M-CSF for the indicated time points.
After treatment cells were lysed with 100 µL of Lysis Buffer for 10 minutes at RT with shaking (350 rpm). CSF1R Phospho (Tyr723) and Total levels were evaluated using respective AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assays. For the detection step, 10 µL of cell lysate (approximately 4,000 cells) was transferred into a 384-well white OptiPlate, followed by 5 µL of Acceptor mix and incubated for 1 hour at RT. Finally, 5 µL of Donor mix was then added to each well and incubated for 1 hour at RT in the dark. The plate was read on an Envision using standard AlphaLISA settings.
M-CSF triggered a rapid phosphorylation of Tyr723, peaking at 5 minutes and then decreasing thereafter. Total CSF1R levels decreased around 50% at 30 minutes, suggesting degradation occurs post phosphorylation.
THP-1 cells were seeded in a 96-well plate (200,000 cells/well) in HBSS + 0.1% BSA and starved for 2 hours at 37°C, 5% CO2. The cells were treated with 100 ng/mL M-CSF for the indicated time points.
After treatment, the cells were spun down and lysed with 100 µL of Lysis Buffer for 10 minutes at RT with shaking (350 rpm). CSF1R Phospho (Tyr723) and Total levels were evaluated using respective AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assays. For the detection step, 10 µL of cell lysate (approximately 20,000 cells) was transferred into a 384-well white OptiPlate, followed by 5 µL of Acceptor mix and incubated for 1 hour at RT. Finally, 5 µL of Donor mix was then added to each well and incubated for 1 hour at RT in the dark. The plate was read on an Envision using standard AlphaLISA settings.
As expected, M-CSF triggered a rapid phosphorylation of Tyr723 while Total CSF1R levels decreased 2-fold at 30 minutes.
BeWo cells were seeded in a 96-well plate (60,000 cells/well) and incubated overnight at 37°C, 5% CO2. The cells were starved for 2 hours in HBSS + 0.1% BSA and then treated with 100 ng/mL M-CSF for the indicated time points.
After treatment, the cells were lysed with 100 µL of Lysis Buffer for 10 minutes at RT with shaking (350 rpm). CSF1R Phospho (Tyr723) and Total levels were evaluated using respective AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra assays. For the detection step, 10 µL of cell lysate (approximately 6,000 cells) was transferred into a 384-well white OptiPlate, followed by 5 µL of Acceptor mix and incubated for 1 hour at RT. Finally, 5 µL of Donor mix was then added to each well and incubated for 1 hour at RT in the dark. The plate was read on an Envision using standard AlphaLISA settings.

THP-1 cells were seeded in a 96-well plate (200,000 cells/well) in HBSS + 0.1% BSA and starved for 2 hours at 37°C, 5% CO2. The cells were treated with increasing concentrations of M-CSF for 5 minutes.
