Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  Radioligand Binding Assay to HeLa Cells
Description:  After reaching confluence in 12-well or 24-well dishes, the cells were washed twice with ice-cold PBS and incubated for 2 hr with [3H]-AVP at 4 deg C. For the competition experiment, test compounds were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide, diluted with DMEM medium and added into the wells at several appropriate concentrations. After 2 hr of incubation, the cells were rinsed twice with ice-cold phosphate-buffered saline, lysed in 0.1 N NaOH containing 0.1% sodium dodecyl sulfate, transferred into scintillation vials, and detected using a liquid scintillation counter (LSC-1050, Aloka, Tokyo, Japan). The protein content of the lysed cells was determined by the method of Bradford.
