General description
Human ETB isoform 1
The endothelin family of peptides are potent vasoconstrictors synthesized by endothelial cells in both constitutive and inducible pathways. The biological actions of endothelins are mediated by two GPCRs, ETA and ETB (Davenport, 2002). Whereas ETA is the predominant receptor on smooth muscle cells and thus is the primary mediator of the vasoconstrictor activity, ETB is found on endothelial cells and mediates vasodilation (Nilsson et al., 1997). In addition, ETB has also been linked to renal failure, congestive heart failure, atherosclerosis, and pulmonary hypertension (D’Orléans-Juste, et al., 2002). A mutation in ETB has been found to cause Hirschsprung disease-2, a degenerative disease of the digestive tract (Puffenberger et al, 1994). Millipore’s cloned human ETB expressing cell line is made in the CHO host, which supports high levels of recombinant ETB expression on the cell surface. Thus, the ETB Membrane Preparation is an ideal tool for screening for compounds binding to ETB. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.03-0.06 nM for [125I]-endothelin-1. With 0.2 nM [125I]-endothelin-1, 10 μg/well ETB Membrane Prep yields greater than 5 fold signal-to-background ratio.

Inucbation Conditions
RECOMMENDED ASSAY 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: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.2% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C
Radioligand: [125I]Endothelin-1 (Perkin Elmer # NEX259)
Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl , 0.1% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C.
One package contains enough membranes for at least 200 assays (units), where an unit is the amount of membrane that will yield greater than 5-fold signal:background with 125I-labeled Endothelin-1 at 0.25 nM.
