Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Radioligand Binding Assay
Description:  The affinity of compounds for human recombinant GABA (A) receptors was measured by competition binding using [3H]flunitrazepam. Assays were carried out in 96-well plates and incubation time started by the addition of cell membranes. Following incubation, assays were terminated by filtration through GF/B filters. Radioactivity was counted using a liquid scintillation counter. The percentage inhibition of [3H]flunitrazepam binding, the IC50 and the Ki values were calculated using the Activity Base Software Package (ID Business Solutions, Guildford, UK) according to the Cheng-Prusoff equation.
