Port-a-Patch data and applications:
Cells were kindly provided by AstraZeneca, Sweden.
The Laminar Flow Chamber can also be used for studying glycine receptors. The pharmacology of the hGlyRα1, expressed in a mouse fibroblast cell line (L-tk), was investigated. The EC50 for glycine was determined as 89 ± 2.7 μM (n = 10) which is in accordance with the literature.
