| Description: | Human recombinant FAAH was obtained from a HEK-293 cell line stably overexpressing human FAAH-1 enzyme. Cells were grown in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) medium containing 10% FBS, 1% pen/strep, 1% glutamine and 500 μg/mL G418. To obtain membrane preparation cells were scraped off with cold PBS and collected by centrifugation (500×g, 10 min, 4° C.); the cell pellet was re-suspended in 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.4, 0.32M sucrose, disrupted by sonication (10 pulses, 5 times) and centrifuged (800×g, 15 min, 4° C.); the collected supernatant was centrifuged at 105,000×g for 1 h at 4° C. and the pellet was re-suspended in PBS.The fluorescent assay to measure FAAH activity was performed in 96 wells black plates: 2.5 μg of human FAAH-1 membrane preparation were pre-incubated for 50 min at 37° C., in 180 L of assay buffer (50 mM TrisHCl pH 7.4, 0.05% Fatty acid-free-BSA) with 10 μL of inhibitor (at appropriate concentration in DMSO) or 10 μL DMSO to measure FAAH total activity. The background (no activity) samples were prepared using 180 μL of assay buffer without human FAAH-1 and 10 μL of DMSO. The reaction was then started by the addition of 10 μL of a 40 μM substrate solution (N. 10005098, Cayman Chemical) dissolved in ethanol, and used at a final concentration of 2 μM. The reaction was carried out for 30 min at 37° C. and fluorescence was measured with a Tecan Infinite M200 nanoquant plate reader (excitation wavelength 350 nm/emission wavelength 460 nm). |
