Overview
Fluorescent H3 antagonist
Excitation wavelength: 633 nm
Emission wavelength: 650 nm
Properties
To determine the apparent KD for ab118649 at histamine H3, H2 and H1receptors, cells were treated with varying concentrations of histamine agonist alone, or in the presence of 1 µM ab118649, and the cyclic AMP-induced expression of SPAP measured.
The apparent KD at H3, H2 and H1 was calculated from the rightward shift of the agonist response curve in the presence of ab118649, compared to the response curve for the agonist alone.
Applications
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab118649 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
