Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Binding Affinity Human 5-HT1A Receptor Test
Description:  Human HEK-293 cell homogenates (36 μg protein) were incubated at 22° C. for 60 minutes with 0.3 nM [3H]8-OH-DPAT (Perkin-Elmer) in the absence or presence of the test compound in a buffer solution containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 10 mM MgSO4, 0.5 mM EDTA, 2 μg/ml aprotinine.The non-specific binding value was determined by incubating the same mixture in the presence of 10 μM 8-OH-DPAT, which was used as the standard reference compound and tested in each experiment at several concentrations to obtain a competition curve.Following the incubation, the samples were filtered rapidly under vacuum through glass fiber filter (GF/B, Packard) presoaked with 0.3% PEI and rinsed several times with ice-cold 50 mM Tris-HCl using a 96-sample cell harvester (Unifilter, Packard). The filters were dried and the retained radioactivity was measured in a scintillation counter (Topcount, Packard) using a scintillation cocktail (Microscint 0, Packard). The experimental results were expressed as a percent inhibition of the control radioligand specific binding, and Ki was the inhibition constant.
