Radioligand Binding Assays: Application of [125I]Angiotensin II Receptor Binding

2009
Angiotensin II (AngII) is an octapeptide hormone with a key role in blood pressure regulation. AngII increases blood pressure by stimulating G protein-coupled receptors in vascular smooth muscle. AngII receptors are therefore an important target in patients with high blood pressure. Strategies to lower high blood pressure (hypertension) include the use

Radioligand-binding assays for study of neurotensin receptors

1989
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the radioligand-binding assays for the study of neurotensin receptors. Radioligand-binding studies have provided valuable information concerning the characteristics, the structure–activity relationships, and the cellular localization of neurotensin receptors.

Magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer beads for drug radioligand binding assay

The Analyst, 1998
Molecularly imprinted polymer-magnetic iron oxide composite materials which exhibit recognition properties and can be withdrawn from solution by application of a magnetic field were prepared for the first time. Magnetic iron oxide was incorporated using a suspension polymerisation methodology with a perfluorocarbon liquid as the dispersing phase for ...

Saturation Assays of Radioligand Binding to Receptors and Their Allosteric Modulatory Sites

Current Protocols in Neuroscience, 1997
AbstractThe protocols in this unit describe methods for measuring radioligand binding to sites on the GABA‐A receptor complex. This system was chosen because of the fundamental role of GABA‐A receptors in central nervous system function and the presence of multiple binding sites on one supramolecular complex. However, these basic techniques can be used

Development of radioligand binding assays for REV-ERBα and REV-ERBβ

Analytical Biochemistry
REV-ERBα and REV-ERBβ are atypical nuclear receptors that function as ligand-dependent repressors of transcription. They play critical roles in the regulation of the circadian rhythm, inflammation, and metabolism. The natural ligand for the REV-ERBs is heme, and synthetic ligands (both agonists and antagonists) have been designed and utilized to probe ...

An approach to computer analysis of the ligand binding assay data on example of radioligand assay data

Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, 2020
As a rule, receptor-ligand assay data are fitted by logistic functions (4PL model, 5PL model, Feldman’s model). The preparation of the initial estimates for parameters of these functions is an important problem for processing receptor-ligand interaction data.

Tissue slices in radioligand binding assays: Studies in brain, pineal and muscle

Life Sciences, 1986
The use of tissue homogenates in receptor binding assays raises serious questions as to the physiological value of a preparation which examines receptors (binding sites) in disrupted tissue. In order to usefully study the regulatory properties of neurotransmitter receptors under physiological conditions, the necessity for tissue preparations which ...

Identification of drug receptors in porcine dental pulp by the radioligand binding assay

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1989
1. The acetylcholine (ACh), histamine and serotonin (5-HT) receptors in porcine dental pulp were characterized by the radioligand binding assay. 2. For [3H]nicotine binding site, Kd was 8.06 +/- 1.65 nM and Bmax was 270.83 +/- 32.68 fmol/mg protein. 3. For [3H]QNB binding site, Kd was 1.04 +/- 0.14 nM and Bmax was 24.83 +/- 3.09 fmol/mg protein. 4. For

[Radioligand binding assay of PHSA receptor on hepatocytes].

Hua xi yi ke da xue xue bao = Journal of West China University of Medical Sciences = Huaxi yike daxue xuebao, 1994
The radioligand binding assay of PHSA receptor on hepatocytes of 7 adults is reported. The presence of PHSA receptor was demonstrated in all the 7 adults, though the individual difference of the Kds and binding capacities among them was distinct with a higher standard derivation.

Multiplexing G protein-coupled receptors in microarrays: A radioligand-binding assay

Analytical Biochemistry, 2007
Multiplexing of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in microarrays promises to increase the efficiency, reduce the costs, and improve the quality of high-throughput assays. However, this technology is still nascent and has not yet achieved the status of "high throughput" or laid claim to handling a large set of receptors.
