Qualitative Assay to Detect Dopamine Release by Ligand Action on Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Qualitative Assay to Detect Dopamine Release by Ligand Action on Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

A pheochromocytoma of the rat adrenal medulla derived (a.k.a. PC12) cell-based assay for dopamine measurement by luminescence detection was customized for the qualitative evaluation of agonists and antagonists of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs). The assay mechanism begins with ligand bind...
