Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  CB-1 Receptor Binding Assay
Description:  Receptor binding: Evaluation of the affinity of compounds for the agonist site of the human CB-1 cannabinoid receptor in transfected CHO cells determined in a radioligand binding assay: Cell membrane homogenates (20 µg protein) are incubated for 120 min at 37° C. with 0.5 nM [3H]CP 55940 in the absence or presence of the test compound in a buffer containing 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 5 mM MgCl2, 2.5 mM EDTA and 0.3% BSA. Nonspecific binding is determined in the presence of 10 µM WIN 55212-2.
