Determining ad hoc experimental parameters for quantitative autoradiography of AMPAR using [3H]AMPA ligand

Experimental determination of receptor-ligand binding affinity for [3H]AMPA

10 nM [3H]AMPA bound 32% of receptors in rat. Frozen-thawed tissue in buffer with KCl bound 36% of receptors. Specific binding curve extrapolation estimates the Kd of AMPA to be ~28 nM (Olsen et al 1987).
