Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Radioligand Binding Assay
Description:  The CRTH2 receptor binding assay is performed in a scintillation proximity assay (SPA) format with the radioligand [3H]-PGD2 (Perkin Elmer, NET616000MC). CHO-K1-hCRTH2 cell membranes are again homogenized by passing through a single use needle (Terumo, 23Gx1'') and diluted in SPA incubation buffer in suitable concentrations (0.5-10 ug protein/well). The SPA assay is set up in 96 well microtiter plates (Perkin Elmer, CatNo. 6005040) in SPA incubation buffer with a final volume of 200 ul per well and final concentration of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA pH 7.4, 0.1% bovine serum albumin). The SPA assay mixture contains 60 ul of the membrane suspension, 80 ul of Wheat Germ Agglutinin coated PVT beads (GE Healthcare, RPNQ-0001, 0.3 mg/well), 40 ul of [3H]-PGD2 diluted in SPA buffer to a final concentration of 1 nM (50 000 dpm) and 20 ul of the test compound (dissolved in dimethylsulfoxid).
