| Description: | The affinity of compounds of the invention to the H3 receptor can be assessed by measuring displacement of binding of the radioligand [3H]-N-alpha -Methylhistamine (PerkinElmer, #NET1027250UC) to membranes containing human H3 receptors (PerkinElmer, #ES-392-M400UA; GenBank: NM-007232.2; Hill S J et al, International Union of Pharmacology XIII. Classification of histamine receptors, Pharmacol Rev, 49(3), 253-278, 1997).Protocol:1. Preparation of binding assay buffer (500 ml): 25 ml 1 M Tris-HCl pH 7.5 (Invitrogen, #15567-027), 2.5 ml 1 M MgCl2 (Sigma, #M1028-100 mL), 472.5 ml ddH2O.2. Compound serial dilution: Dilution was performed by BioTek Precision on compound dilution plate. Compound concentrations start at 5 or 10 uM, 10 point dose titrations with 3- or 5-fold serial dilutions.3. Preparation of 2x membrane solution (25 ml): 1.25 ml human Histamine H3 receptor stock, 23.75 ml assay buffer.4. |
