| Description: | The Kd of CP 55,940 in the isolated CB1 and CB2 receptor expressing membranes was previously determined to be 2.3 nM and 1.5 nM, respectively (see Pertwee, R. G. Current Medicinal Chemistry 6 635-664 (1999)). Competition binding assays at 2.5 nM [3H]-CP 55,940 (PerkinElmer) were carried out to determine the K1 values for tested compounds. Membranes (5-10 μg) were incubated with radioligand and a range of concentrations of test compounds in binding buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA) with 0.5% (w/v) bovine serum albumin (BSA) (ICP Bio, New Zealand), at 30° C. for 60 min. Stock solutions of putative cannabinoid ligands were prepared in dimethyl sulfoxide to a concentration of 10 mM. Six different final concentrations of compounds were used ranging from 50 μM to 0.1 nM. Non-specific binding was determined in the presence of 1 μM non-radioactive CP 55,940 (Tocris Cookson). Assays were terminated by addition of 2 ml ice cold binding buffer and filtration through GF/C filters (Whatman) pre-soaked in cold binding buffer, followed by two washes in the same buffer. |
