Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Receptor Binding Inhibition Assay
Description:  Cell membrane was prepared from CRTH2-expressing K562 cell. The cell membrane (20 μg/well) was mixed with reaction buffer (50 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl2). Then, [3H]-PGD2 was added to the mixture and incubated for 60 min at room temperature. The concentration of [3H]-PGD2 was determined as equal to Kd calculated from Scatchard plot. Then, the mixture was filtrated with glass paper immediately. The filter paper was washed several times and radio activity on the filter was measured. Specific binding was defined as difference between total and non-specific binding (radio activity with 10 μM PGD2). Ki values for each compound were calculated from displacement curve.
