Abstract excerpt
A comparison has been made of various methods for measuring binding of nerve growth factor (NGF) to PC12 cells in suspension, on plates, and by a combination of the two. Results indicated that the extensive washing in the plate binding assay removed some cell surface ligand, underestimated the fast receptor binding, and overestimated the proportion of internalized ligand. In addition, the binding and...
