| Description: | Assay Method 1: T84 frozen pellets (contents of 1-4x15 cm culture dishes) were homogenized in 300 mL of FAAH assay buffer (125 mM Tris, 1 mM EDTA, 0.2% glycerol, 0.02% Triton X-100, 0.4 mM Hepes, pH 9). The assay mixture was prepared from 50 uL of the cell homogenate, 10 uL of the test compound, and 40 uL of anandamide [1-3H-ethanolamine] (3H-AEA; Perkin-Elmer, 10.3 Ci/mmol), which was added last, for a final tracer concentration of 200 nM. The reaction mixture was incubated at rt for 1 hour (h). During the incubation, 96-well Multiscreen filter plates (catalog number MAFCNOB50; Millipore, Bedford, Mass., USA) were loaded with 25 uL of activated charcoal (Multiscreen column loader, catalog number MACL09625, Millipore) and washed once with 100 uL of MeOH. Also during the incubation, 96-well DYNEX MicroLite plates (catalog number NL510410) were loaded with 100 uL of MicroScint40 (catalog number 6013641, Packard Bioscience, Meriden, Conn., USA). |
