The affinity of radioligands for GPCR105 and the human H3receptor

RadioligandH3Receptor KDGPCR105 ReceptorKD
nM nM
3H-Histamine11  ± 2  (n = 2)5.0  ± 3.5  (n = 3)
3H-R-α-methylhistamine0.6  ± 0.3  (n = 3)58  ± 9  (n = 2)
3H-N-methylhistamine0.8  ± 0.1  (n = 2)17  ± 3  (n = 2)

K D values (average ± S.D.) are derived from a −1/slope of a linear regression of a Scatchard transformation (bound/free versus bound). Saturation binding was performed on membranes from SK-N-MC cells stably transfected with either the human H3 receptor or human GPCR105.
