Abstract

Guanosine-5 '-triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein-coupled receptors are the target of up to 40% of prescribed medications worldwide. To evaluate the suitability of novel receptor ligands, frequently elaborate, time-consuming, and expensive receptor-ligand interaction studies have to be carried out. This work describes the development and proof of principle of a rapid, sensitive, and reliable receptor-ligand binding assay. CHO cells were stably transfected with a construct encoding the human A(1)adenosine receptor (hA(1)AR). For ligand binding assays, membranes from these cells were prepared and embedded in low melting point agarose. These immobilized samples were incubated with tritiated 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine ([H-3]DPCPX), a well-established receptor antagonist. TheK(D)andB(max)values as well as kinetic parameters (k(on)andk(off)) of receptor-ligand interaction were determined. Unspecific binding of various radiotracers to either the carrier material or the agarose gel matrix was negligible. The dissociation constant (K-D) for [H-3]DPCPX at the hA(1)AR was determined by saturation, competition binding, and kinetic experiments. These studies resulted inK(D)values of similar to 3 nM, which is in good accordance with previously published data obtained from conventional receptor-ligand binding assays. The procedure described in this study simplifies classical binding studies to a kit-like assay. The receptors retained their binding properties even when preparations were dried completely. Transport and delivery of the material are conceivable without loss of biological activity. Therefore, other laboratories can perform binding studies without special equipment or the necessity to run a cell culture laboratory and/or to dissect tissue on their own.
