| | [3H]-AEA Cellular Uptake |
| Description: | Screening for AEA cellular uptake inhibition was performed in a semi-automated procedure: Pipetting and washing steps were performed by a Biomek3000 laboratory workstation. First, required amounts of U937 cells were centrifuged at 100×g for 5 min and resuspended in RPMI (37° C.) to a final concentration of 2×106 cells/mL. Then, 250 μL of cell suspension (0.5×106 cells per sample) were transferred into AquaSil silanized glass vials (Chromacol 1.1-MTV) in 96-well format. After addition of 5 μL vehicle (DMSO) or compounds the cells were incubated at 37° C. for 15 min. As positive controls OMDM-2 and UCM707 were used at 10 μM in each run. The ETI-T compounds were measured at up to 7 concentrations in triplicates from 100 pM-100 μM. After pre-incubation, a mixture of 0.5 nM[ethanolamine-1-3H]-AEA, (60 Ci/mmol) and 99.5 nM of cold AEA (final 100 nM) was added and samples were incubated at 37° C. for another 15 min. The reaction was stopped by rapid filtration over UniFilter-96 GF/C filters (PerkinElmer) pre-soaked with PBS 0.25% BSA. Cells were washed three times with 100 μL ice-cold PBS buffer containing 1% fatty acid free BSA. After drying, 45 μL MicroScint 20 scintillation cocktail (PerkinElmer, Waltham, Mass., US) was added to the wells and the plate was sealed. Radioactivity was measured by liquid scintillation counting on a PerkinElmer Wallac Trilux MicroBeta 1450 during 2 min. Non-specific binding of [3H]AEA (100 nM) to the glass vials was never higher than 10%. IC50 values were calculated by GraphPad by non-linear regression using the built-in log(inhibitor) vs. response-variable slope (four parameters) function. |
