“…Calculated RBAs, compared to E2 set at 100%, indicated weak binding of most ligands tested except TAM. These values correspond to the range of RBAs (or IC 50 values) that have been previously reported based on radioligand, polarization anisotropy and fluorescence-based assays (Table 1) (Bolger et al, 1998; Kuiper et al, 1998a; Kuiper et al, 1998b; Matthews et al, 2000; Nikov et al, 2000; Parker et al, 2000; Nikov et al, 2001; Kuramitz et al, 2002; Ohno et al, 2002; Ohno et al, 2003; Mueller et al, 2004; Olsen et al, 2005; Matsui, 2007; Freyberger et al, 2010; Kwok and Cheung, 2010; McLachlan et al, 2011). In general, our assay produces slightly increased affinities for tested xenoestrogen ligands compared to radioligand assays, a result that is likely due to the fact that FP is a homogeneous assay.…”
