[3H]-XAC
Taxonomy: Technique Branch / Method. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.
Summary
The A1-selective antagonist [3H]-XAC, having high levels of non-specific binding (Ukena et al., 1986), does not permit satisfactory binding studies of A2A receptors.
Usefulness & Problems
Why this is useful
This is an antagonist radioligand discussed as one attempted tool for receptor binding studies. The review cites it mainly as an unsatisfactory option for A2A receptor characterization.; comparison point in radioligand selection for adenosine receptor binding studies

Ranked Claims
Activation of platelet A2A receptors increases cyclic AMP accumulation and decreases platelet aggregation.
Adenotin is a low-affinity non-receptor binding protein that confounds membrane binding analyses of A2A receptors and precluded direct characterization in platelet membranes with earlier ligands.
A2A adenosine receptors are expressed in human peripheral blood cells including platelets, lymphocytes, and neutrophils and are linked to platelet antiaggregatory, neutrophil antiinflammatory, and immune-modulatory effects.
[3H]-CGS 21680 interacts with platelet A2A receptors but is unsatisfactory in human platelet membranes because it also labels low-affinity non-receptor sites; it becomes more adequate after purification that reduces adenotin interference.
[3H]-NECA is unsatisfactory for direct characterization of human platelet A2A receptors because much of its binding in platelet membranes is to non-receptor sites.
[3H]-XAC does not permit satisfactory A2A receptor binding studies because of high non-specific binding.
[3H]-SCH 58261 enabled satisfactory binding characterization of the A2A receptor subtype in human platelets and is presented as the first radioligand to do so.
