Overview

A multiplicity of methods for visualization are described in Visualization of Receptors. This book of techniques covers immunocytology, radioautography, in situ hybridization, plasmon resonance, RT in vitro PCR, and X-ray crystal structure analysis. Lecturers, researchers, practitioners, technicians, and students will find all the principles and protocols they require and the means of implementing them.

Topics discussed include localization of ligands (in vitro or in vivo), visualization of immunoreactivities of ligand and receptor proteins, detection and quantification of mRNA expression, amplification of signals, and determination of 3-D structure.

Details of protocols with illustrations of results and commentaries are provided throughout the book.

Presents the principles and protocols for various methods of visualizing receptors used in such fields as endocrinology, immunology, and cell and molecular biology. Among them are radioligand binding on tissue sections and quantitative radioautography, ultrastructural visualization of radiolabeled ligands, visualizing peptide receptors in tumors by immunohistochemistry, a clinical approach to steroid receptors, immunoelectron microscopic localization, and x-ray crystal structure analysis of cytokine receptor complexes.
