Popis: | This protocol describes an in vitro assay for characterization of the picrotoxin site of GABA(A) receptors in rat brain membranes using various radioligands. Methods and representative data for Scatchard analysis (Kd, Bmax determination), association kinetics, dissociation kinetics and competition assays (IC50, Ki determination) are included in the protocol. |
