Adenosine receptors are a class of GPCRs involved in heart and blood flow, inflammation, and neurotransmission. These receptors are potential drug targets for tissue damage, brain, kidney and liver injury, epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease.\u003cbr\u003e\nWe offer both agonist and antagonist radioligands for autoradiographic visualization or performing saturation and competition assays to determine receptor expression levels (Bmax), dissociation constants (Kd), association and dissociation rates (kon and koff), and inhibitor constants (Ki) for a variety of receptors. We develop our radioligands to the highest specific activity possible and provide high purity resulting in low non-specific binding products. Each of our ultra-pure radioligands is fully characterized for pharmacological action and validated in receptor binding assays.\u003cbr\u003e\nRadiolabeled ligands remain the most sensitive method for probing receptor binding biology; yielding unprecedented sensitivity gives results that technicians and scientists can trust. For over 50 years, Revvity has been a leading supplier of New England Nuclear (NEN) radiochemicals, liquid scintillation cocktails, vials and nuclear counting detection instruments.\u003cbr\u003e\nReferences for NEC412:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEberhard Schrader, Götz Klaunick, Ute Jorritsma, Hartmud Neurath, Karen I Hirsch-Ernst, Georg F Kahl, Heidi Foth, High-performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous determination of [1-methyl-14C]caffeine and its eight major metabolites in rat urine, In Journal of Chromatography B: Biomedical Sciences and Applications, Volume 726, Issues 1–2, 1999, Pages 195-201.\u003cbr\u003e\nUte Jorritsma, Eberhard Schrader, Götz Klaunick, Jaime Kapitulnik, Karen I.
