General description
Full-length human SSTR2 cDNA encoding sst2
Somatostatin (sst) is a multifunctional peptide with two biologically active forms, sst-14 and sst-28, which are synthesized in neurons throughout the brain as well as in peripheral tissues such as the pancreas and the gut (Gillies, 1997). SST exerts a diverse array of effects that include inhibition of endocrine secretion, modulation of neurotransmission, and regulation of cell proliferation by stimulating a family of five G-protein-coupled receptors. Somatostatin receptor sst2 mRNA is predominantly expressed in central nervous system. Study using sst2 knock-out mice has found the increased anxiety-related behaviour while locomotor and exploratory activity was decreased in stress-inducing situations (coupled with an increase in pituitary ACTH release, a regulator of the stress response) (Viollet et al., 2000) . In the periphery, inhibition of glucagon release by sst in mouse islets is primarily mediated via sst2 (Strowski et al., 2000). In addition, endogenous sst functions through sst2 to suppress gastric acid secretion through inhibition of gastrin activity (Martinez et al., 1998). Millipore′s sst2 membrane preparations are crude membrane preparations made from our proprietary stable recombinant cell lines to ensure high-level of GPCR surface expression; thus, they are ideal HTS tools for screening of agonists and antagonists of sst2. The membrane preparations exhibit a Kd of 0.95 nM for [125I]-Somatostatin 14. With 0.75 nM [125I]-Somatostatin 14, 5 μg/well sst2 Membrane Prep typically yields greater than 20-fold signal-to-background ratio.

Inucbation Conditions
RECOMMENDED ASSAY CONDITIONS: Membranes are mixed with radioactive ligand and unlabeled competitor (see Figures 1 and 2 for concentrations tested) in binding buffer in a nonbinding 96-well plate, and incubated for 1-2 h. Prior to filtration, an FC 96-well harvest plate (Millipore cat. # MAHF C1H) is coated with 0.33% polyethyleneimine for 30 min, then washed with 50mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 0.5% BSA. Binding reaction is transferred to the filter plate, and washed 3 times (1 mL per well per wash) with Wash Buffer. The plate is dried and counted.
Binding buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 5 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 0.2% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C
Radioligand: [125I]-Somatostatin 14. (Perkin Elmer NEX-389 )
Wash Buffer: 50 mM Hepes, pH 7.4, 500mM NaCl , 0.1% BSA, filtered and stored at 4°C.
One package contains enough membranes for at least 200 assays (units), where a unit is the amount of membrane that will yield greater than 20-fold signal:background with 125I labeled somatostatin 14 at 0.75 nM
