Description générale

Chemoattractant receptor homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells (CRTH2) is a GPCR related to FPR-like chemoattractant receptors that is highly expressed on Th2 cells, eosinophils, basophils, and type 2 cytotoxic T cells (Nagata et al., 1999). The most potent ligand for CRTH2 is the prostaglandin PGD2, a major mast cell-derived allergic mediator (Hirai et al., 2001). Another GPCR, DP, is activated by PGD2, and the relative contributions of DP and CRTH2 to PGD2-mediated allergic disease are being elucidated. A small molecule antagonist of CRTH2, ramatroban, attenuates PGD2-mediated bronchial hyperresponsiveness and antigen-induced inflammation (Sugimoto et al., 2003; Shichijo et al., 2003).Chemicon′s CRTH2 membrane preparations are crude membrane preparations made from our proprietary stable recombinant cell lines to ensure high-level of GPCR surface expression; thus, they are ideal HTS tools for screening of antagonists of PGD2/CRTH2 interactions. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 10 nM for [3H]-Prostaglandin D2. With 2.5 μg/well CRTH2 Membrane Prep and 10 nM [3H]-Prostaglandin D2, a greater than 5-fold signal-to-background ratio is obtained.

Caractéristiques

Inucbation Conditions
Membranes are mixed with radioactive ligand and unlabeled competitor (see Figures 1 and 2 for concentrations tested) in binding buffer in a nonbinding 96-well plate, and incubated for 1-2 h. Prior to filtration, an FC 96-well harvest plate (Millipore cat. # MAHF C1H) is coated with 0.33% polyethyleneimine for 30 min, then washed with 50mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 0.5% BSA. Binding reaction is transferred to the filter plate, and washed 3 times (1 mL per well per wash) with Wash Buffer. The plate is dried and counted.
Binding buffer: 50mM HEPES, 10mM MnCl2, 1mM EDTA, 0.2% BSA, pH to 7.0 and filter.
Wash buffer: 50mM HEPES, 0.5M NaCl, pH to 7.4 and filter.
Radioligand: [3H] Prostaglandin D2 (Amersham#: TRK734)

Forme physique

Liquid in packaging buffer: 50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 10% glycerol and 1% BSA no preservatives.Packaging method: Membranes protein were adjusted to 0.5 mg/ml in 1 ml packaging buffer, rapidly frozen, and stored at -80°C.

Stockage et stabilité

Maintain frozen at -70°C for up to 2 years. Do not freeze and thaw.
