Monoiodinated radioligands of the homologous 36-amino acid peptides, neuropeptide Y (NPY) and peptide YY, were prepared by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography with isocratic elution. [125I-Tyr1]- and [125I-Tyr36]monoiodoNPY bound equally well to a single class of high affinity binding sites on synaptosomal membranes prepared from porcine hippocampus (Kd = 1.0 X 10(-10) M) whereas iodine substitution in Tyr27, for example, partly interfered with the receptor binding. The receptors on the hippocampal membranes did not distinguish between neuropeptide Y and peptide YY either in their monoiodinated or in their unlabeled forms. Six out of twelve human neuroblastoma cell lines had high affinity binding sites for monoiodinated NPY ranging from 2 to 145 X 10(3) sites per cell. The NPY binding to three of the cell lines, SMS-MSN, SMS-KAN, and CHP-234 was of relatively high affinity (Kd = 1.3 to 6.1 X 10(-10) M), and, as in the hippocampal membranes, the long C-terminal fragment, NPY(13-36)peptide was also a relatively potent ligand for these receptors. Two other neuroblastoma cell lines, MC-IXC and CHP-212, expressed NPY receptors characterized by a lower affinity (Kd = 4.8 and 24.6 X 10(-9) M) and negligible cross-reactivity with the C-terminal fragment. It is concluded that monoiodinated radioligands of the tyrosine-rich neuropeptide Y can be prepared and that receptors for these ligands in two apparently different subtypes are found on a series of human neuroblastoma cell lines.  相似文献

Y1 and Y2 receptors for neuropeptide Y   总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10  
By using monoiodinated radioligands of both intact neuropeptide Y (NPY) and of a long C-terminal fragment, NPY13-36, two subtypes of binding sites, which differ in affinity and specificity, have been characterized. The Y1 type of binding site, characterized on a human neuroblastoma cell line, MC-IXC, and a rat pheochromocytoma cell line, PC-12, binds NPY with a dissociation constant (Kd) of a few nanomolar but does not bind NPY13-36. The Y2 type of binding site, characterized on porcine hippocampal membranes and on another human neuroblastoma cell line, SMS-MSN, is of higher affinity and binds both NPY and NPY13-36. None of the binding sites distinguish between NPY and the homologous peptide YY (PYY). It is concluded that NPY/PYY-binding sites occur in two subtypes which may represent two types of physiological receptors.  相似文献

Binding of [125I]-alpha-bungarotoxin to rat brain was investigated. Picomole quantities of specific toxin binding sites per gram of fresh tissue were found in particulate preparations as well as detergent extracts of whole brain. The toxin-binding macromolecules can be solubilized in low concentrations of Triton X-100. Specific binding occurs to a single class of sites with a dissociation constant of 5.6 X 10(-11) M. The association rate constant in 10 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.4, was determined to be 6.8 X 10(5) M-1 s-1; the half-life of the complex was found to be 5.1 h, corresponding to a dissociation rate constant of 3.8 X 10(-5) s-1. The binding macromolecules resemble peripheral nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in toxin binding kinetics, solubility, isoelectric point, and hydrodynamic properties.  相似文献

Target organs for calcitonin gene related peptide were investigated in the abalone. To elucidate the function of this neuropeptide in the biomineralization process, we have localized, in different tissues from abalone, specific binding sites for human calcitonin gene related peptide (hCGRP). Highest binding was observed in gill membranes where two classes of affinity components were identified. The affinity constants and the number of binding sites per mg of proteins for the site I were 5 X 10(9)M(-1)and 8.8 x 10(10). For the site II, the affinity constant was 1.34 X 10(7) M(-1)and the number of binding sites per mg of proteins was 1.1 x 10(12). In contrast, no specific calcitonin binding could be detected in every tested tissue, but the similar displacement of the 125I-labeled CGRP binding with unlabeled hCGRP and sCT suggested that, in the abalone, the identified receptor could belong to a third class receptor subtype, that recognize both hCGRPalpha and sCT. These data suggest that, during evolution, the role of CGRP in gill function is particularly well conserved and that this neuropeptide is likely to participate in the control of hydromineral metabolism in aquatic species.  相似文献

The synthesis of a tritiated photoaffinity analogue of the muscarinic antagonist atropine, [3H]-p-azidoatropine methyl iodide is described. The compound appeared to bind to a single class of sites in membrane-bound, solubilized, and partially purified preparations of muscarinic receptor from porcine atria with a dissociation constant (determined by competition vs. [3H]-L-quinuclidinyl benzilate) of about 1.0 X 10(-7) M. This value was in agreement with the apparent dissociation constant (8.5 X 10(-8)M) determined by measuring the concentration dependence of covalent incorporation into a partially purified receptor preparation. Competition experiments indicated that the specific covalent labeling could be blocked by the muscarinic agonist carbamylcholine and the antagonists L-quinuclidinyl benzilate and atropine. An apparent molecular weight of 75 000 +/- 5000 was found for specifically labeled peptide(s) in a solubilized, partially purified receptor preparation by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.  相似文献

125I-[Leu31,Pro34]peptide YY (PYY) and 125I-PYY3-36, initially described as selective neuropeptide Y Y1 and Y2 receptor ligands, respectively, were recently shown to label also Y4 and Y5 receptors. We used receptor autoradiography to assess whether these ligands can be reliably used to investigate the various neuropeptide Y receptors in rat forebrain. In most of the brain regions examined (in coronal sections at the level of dorsal hippocampus), specific 125I-[Leu31,Pro34]PYY binding was completely inhibited by 1 microM BIBP-3226, a selective Y1 receptor ligand, but unaffected by 10 nM rat pancreatic polypeptide, selectively inhibiting Y4 receptors, suggesting that Y4 receptors are present in negligible numbers compared with Y1 receptors in the areas examined. Significant numbers of BIBP-3226-insensitive 125I-[Leu31,Pro34]PYY binding sites were measured in the CA3 subfield of the hippocampus only, possibly representing Y5 receptors. 125I-PYY3-36 binding was unchanged by 1 microM BIBP-3226, whereas a population of 125I-PYY3-36 binding sites was sensitive to 100 nM [Leu31,Pro34]neuropeptide Y, likely representing Y5 receptors. The possibility of distinguishing between Y2 and Y5 receptors using 125I-PYY3-36 as radioligand was validated by their different regional distribution and their distinct changes 24 h after kainate seizures, i.e., binding to Y5 receptors was selectively decreased in the outer cortex, whereas binding to Y2 receptors was enhanced in the hippocampus. Thus, the use of selective unlabeled compounds is required for distinguishing the various receptor subtypes labeled by 125I-[Leu31,Pro34]PYY and 125I-PYY3-36 in rat brain tissue.  相似文献

Peptide YY. Structure of the precursor and expression in exocrine pancreas   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Peptide YY is a 36-residue gastrointestinal hormone which inhibits both pancreatic and gastric secretion. We have isolated a cDNA encoding the peptide YY precursor by screening a rat intestinal lambda gt11 cDNA library with an antiserum directed against the porcine hormone. The nucleotide sequence of the cDNA encodes a 98-residue protein (molecular weight, 11, 121) which has an amino acid sequence identical to that of porcine peptide YY. Rat peptide YY is preceded immediately by a signal sequence and followed by a cleavage-amidation sequence Gly-Lys-Arg plus 31 additional amino acids. Thus the peptide YY precursor is similar in structure to that of two related peptides, pancreatic polypeptide and neuropeptide Y. RNA blot hybridizations reveal that the peptide YY gene is much more actively expressed in pancreas than previously realized. In situ hybridizations localized peptide YY cells exclusively to the exocrine pancreas. The abundance of peptide YY in one of its target organs, the pancreas, suggests a paracrine mechanism for peptide YY in regulating pancreatic enzyme secretion.  相似文献

The action of porcine brain natriuretic peptide (pBNP) on the steroidogenesis was investigated in cultured bovine adrenocortical cells. Porcine BNP induced a significant dose-dependent inhibition of both ACTH- and A II-stimulated aldosterone secretion. 10(-8) M and 10(-7) M pBNP also significantly inhibited ACTH-stimulated cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) secretions. Binding studies of [125I]-pBNP to bovine adrenocortical membrane fractions showed that adrenal cortex had high-affinity and low-capacity pBNP binding sites, with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 1.70 x 10(-10) M and a maximal binding capacity (Bmax) of 19.9 fmol/mg protein. Finally, the 135 Kd radioactive band was specially visualized in the affinity labeling of bovine adrenal cortex with disuccinimidyl suberate (DSS). These results suggest that pBNP may have receptor-mediated suppressive actions on bovine adrenal steroidogenesis, similar to that in atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP).  相似文献

Pharmacological studies indicate that in man and in rabbit, but not in dog, motilin has a direct influence upon gastrointestinal smooth muscle. In accordance with this hypothesis we have presented direct biochemical evidence for the presence of motilin receptors on rabbit smooth muscle tissue. We have now extended our studies to human and canine tissue. Tissue homogenates were studied in binding experiments with iodinated porcine [Leu13]motilin and iodinated canine motilin. It was ascertained that the iodination procedure had little effect on the biological activity of the porcine analogue. In the human antrum specific binding of the iodinated porcine analogue was only found in the smooth muscle layer. It was absent in mucosal or serosal preparations. At 30 degrees C and pH 8.0, binding was maximal after 60 min of incubation, and was reversed by the addition of unlabeled porcine motilin. Binding was enhanced in the presence of calcium and magnesium ions. At a concentration of 10 mM MgCl2, binding was 220% of the binding observed in its absence. Displacement studies with synthetic porcine [Leu13]motilin or synthetic natural porcine motilin indicated a dissociation constant (Kd) of 3.6 +/- 1.6 nM and a maximal binding capacity (Bmax) of 77 +/- 9 fmol per mg protein. Canine motilin displaced iodinated porcine motilin with an apparent Kd of 2.2 +/- 0.9 nM. Compared to antral binding, receptor density decreased aborally and orally, and was absent in jejunum and ileum. In dog specific binding could not be demonstrated in antral and duodenal tissue, neither with labeled porcine nor with labeled canine motilin. However, labeled canine motilin was equipotent to labeled porcine motilin in binding studies with human tissue: the dissociation constant was 0.9 +/- 0.6 nM. The present studies therefore demonstrate the existence of a specific motilin receptor in the antroduodenal region of the human gut. Apparently, such receptors are not present in the canine gut. Our data support the hypothesis that in the human gastrointestinal tract, the gastroduodenal area is motilin's target region.  相似文献

Pancreatic polypeptide (PP) is a member of the PP fold family of regulatory peptides. Studies have shown that neuropeptide Y, peptide YY, and PP increased gastrointestinal motility. The GI effects of neuropeptide Y and peptide YY were accompanied by an increase in mean arterial blood pressure; however, PP decreased mean arterial blood pressure. Cloning of a receptor of the neuropeptide Y family with high affinity for PP has been reported. This Y4 receptor is present in intestine, pancreas, and prostate, and its mRNA has been detected in brain and coronary artery. We found in vitro evidence of PP-mediated inhibition of arterial neurogenic vasoconstriction. We have also detected Y4 mRNA in rat peripheral arteries. These findings suggest a potential role for the Y4 receptor in regulating vascular tone.  相似文献

In the present purification of low molecular weight fractions (Mr: 2000-4000) containing basic peptides, twenty nmol of novel calmodulin binding peptide, possessing a potent affinity for calmodulin, was isolated from 18 kg of porcine brain. By analysis with gas phase sequencer, the sequence was determined to be APAEDLARYYSALRHYINLITRQRY. Carboxy terminus of the peptide was determined to be Tyr-NH2. The peptide was a carboxy terminal pentacosanepeptide of neuropeptide Y and was termed NPY-25. NPY-25 competitively inhibited the activation of cAMP-phosphodiesterase through CaM binding in a Ca++ dependent fashion, but did not inhibit the basal activity of cAMP phosphodiesterase. NPY-25 elicited a more potent activity than did neuropeptide Y. IC50 values of NPY-25 and Neuropeptide Y were 0.06 microM and 0.54 microM respectively.  相似文献

Recombinant human immune interferon (HuIFN-gamma) was labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP and cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase from bovine heart to a specific radioactivity of 11,000 Ci/mmol. At least two molecules of phosphate were incorporated per molecule of interferon. The binding of [32P]HuIFN-gamma to human U937 histiocytic lymphoma cells was time dependent, and displaceable by HuIFN-gamma but not by HuIFN-alpha A or HuIFN-beta. The specific binding was saturable with less than 10% nonspecific binding. The dissociation constant of [32P]HuIFN-gamma for U937 interferon receptors was calculated to be 1.5 X 10(-10) M with a total of 1,800 binding sites/cell. Dissociation of bound [32P]IFN-gamma at 24 degrees C exhibited two distinct rates. A fast dissociation with a specific rate constant of 0.141 min-1, and a slow dissociation with a specific rate constant of 0.0027 min-1. The Kd for [32P]HuIFN-gamma was calculated from kinetic constants to be 5.4 X 10(-10) M.  相似文献

A radioimmunoassay using two antisera (antibody 80 and antibody 213) from rabbits immunized with porcine peptide YY has been characterized for both sensitivity and specificity. To determine the distribution of peptide YY in the gut, fresh tissue specimens from the human and canine gut were separated into mucosal-submucosal and muscularis externa layers by microdissection. These tissues and transmural specimens from murine gut were acid-extracted and neutralized, followed by radioimmunoassay using each antiserum. Immunoreactive peptide YY in canine and murine gut was present in similar concentration and distribution using each antiserum, with highest concentrations in the mucosal-submucosal layer of the descending colon. Using antibody 213, immunoreactive peptide YY throughout the human gut was measured only at the lower detection limit of the radioimmunoassay. By contrast, using antibody 80, peptide YY in human gut was present in a distribution similar to canine and murine gut. Using antibody 80, one major immunoreactive species was identified with C18 reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography in extracts of human, canine, and murine colon. These results suggest species-related antibody recognition differences. The similar concentrations of peptide YY in canine and murine gut determined with the two antisera are consistent with the hypothesis that the amino acid sequences of canine and murine peptide YY are similar to porcine peptide YY. Using antibody 213, the low concentrations of immunoreactive peptide YY found in human gut are consistent with the hypothesis that human and porcine peptide YY have different amino acid sequences. Antisera prepared by immunization with porcine PYY must therefore be carefully characterized prior to studies using human sera or human tissue extracts.  相似文献

Using 125I-interleukin-1 beta (125I-IL-1 beta) as a ligand, a specific receptor of high affinity dissociation constant (1.1 +/- 0.2 x 10(-10) M) with binding sites (350 +/- 40/cell) for interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) has been demonstrated on cultured porcine thyroid cells. IL-1 alpha almost equally cross-reacted with the receptor (Kd = 1.2 +/- 0.3 x 10(-10) M and 350 +/- 50 binding sites/cell). TSH, IL-2 and other peptide hormones did not inhibit the binding of 125I-IL-1 beta to thyroid cells. Crosslinking study revealed a major band (approximately 95 kD) with a corrected molecular mass of approximately 78 kD. Moreover, both IL-1 beta and IL-1 alpha stimulated prostaglandin E2 production of cultured porcine thyroid cells, although the potency of IL-1 alpha was slightly greater than that of IL-1 beta. These results suggest that IL-1 may be involved in the regulation of thyroid cell function.  相似文献

Summary Results from a previous report demonstrate that more than one molecular form of neuropeptide Y-like peptide may be present in the islet organ of the anglerfish (Lophius americanus). Most of the neuropeptide Y-like immunoreactive material was anglerfish peptide YG, which is expressed in a subset of islet cells, whereas an additional neuropeptide Y-like peptide(s) was localized in islet nerves. To learn more about the neuropeptide Y-like peptides in islet nerves, we have employed immunohistochemical and biochemical methods to compare peptides found in anglerfish islets and brain. Using antisera that selectively react with either mammalian forms of neuropeptide Y or with anglerfish peptide YG, subsets of neurons were found in the brain that labelled with only one or the other of the antisera. In separate sections, other neurons that were labelled with either antiserum exhibited similar morphologies. Peptides from brains and islets were subjected to gel filtration and reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Radioimmunoassays employing either the neuropeptide Y or peptide YG antisera were used to examine chromatographic eluates. Immunoreactive peptides having retention times of human neuropeptide Y and porcine neuropeptide Y were identified in extracts of both brain and islets. This indicates that peptides structurally similar to both of these peptides from the neuropeptide Y-pancreatic polypeptide family are expressed in neurons of anglerfish brain and nerve fibers of anglerfish islets. The predominant form of neuropeptide Y-like peptide in islets was anglerfish peptide YG. Neuropeptide Y-immunoreactive peptides from islet extracts that had chromatographic retention times identical to human neuropeptide Y and porcine neuropeptide Y were present in much smaller quantities. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that peptides having significant sequence homology with human neuropeptide Y and porcine neuropeptide Y are present in the nerve fibers that permeate the islet.  相似文献

Specific binding site for atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), a potent natriuretic and vasorelaxant polypeptide recently isolated from mammalian atria, was studied in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) of the rat aorta. Binding studies of 125I-labeled-synthetic alpha-human natriuretic peptide (alpha-hANP) revealed the presence of a non-interacting, single class of high affinity binding sites for alpha-hANP on VSMC in culture: the apparent dissociation constant (Kd) was approximately 1-2 X 10(-9)M and the number of maximal binding sites was approximately 200,000-300,000 sites/cell. A variety of vasoactive substances and other polypeptide hormones did not affect the binding of 125I-labeled-alpha-hANP to its binding sites. alpha-hANP significantly increased the concentrations of intracellular cyclic GMP in VSMC in a dose-dependent manner (3.2 X 10(-9)-1.6 X 10(-7)M). These data indicate that the specific receptor for ANF is present in VSMC and suggest that intracellular cyclic GMP may be involved in its vasorelaxant effect.  相似文献

Analysis of trp repressor-operator interaction by filter binding.   总被引:6,自引:1,他引:5       下载免费PDF全文
A filter binding assay was developed that allows measurement of specific binding of trp repressor to operator DNA. The most important feature of this procedure is the concentration and type of salt present in the binding buffer. Using this assay the dissociation constant of the repressor-operator complex was determined to be 2.6 X 10(-9) M, and 1.34 repressor dimers were found to be bound to each operator-containing DNA molecule. These values agree with those obtained by more complex methods. The dissociation constant of the repressor for the corepressor L-tryptophan in the presence of operator DNA was shown to be 2.5 X 10(-5) M. A synthetic 48 bp operator fragment was used to determine the repressor-operator dissociation constant in the presence of tryptophan or tryptophan analogs which have higher or lower affinities for aporepressor. The rate of dissociation of repressor from operator DNA also was determined. Our findings indicate that dissociation is influenced by the concentration of tryptophan or tryptophan analogs and suggest that release of the corepressor may be the first step in dissociation of the repressor-operator complex.  相似文献

The affinity of binding of the chemotactic peptide N-formylnorleucylleucylphenylalanine to rabbit peritoneal polymorphonuclear leukocytes is increased when sodium ions are removed from the medium. In Hanks' balanced salt solution, the dissociation constant of the binding is about 2 X 10(-8) M, while in Na+-free medium, the dissociation constant is between 3 and 6 X 10(-9) M. Removal of Na+ appears to cause little or no change in receptor number. The change in affinity is rapid and reversible, occurs at 4 degrees C as well as 37 degrees C, and occurs when the Na+ is replaced by K+, choline, or sucrose. The increased binding of low concentrations of peptide is seen on broken as well as whole cells and therefore does not depend on an ion gradient across the membrane. The high affinity receptors are functional in mediating peptide uptake and lysosomal enzyme release. The receptors undergo down-regulation in Na+-free medium, and the dose dependence of the receptor loss is shifted to lower concentrations consistent with the higher affinity of the binding.  相似文献

Rat peptide YY and rat neuropeptide Y have been isolated in parallel from colon and brain extracts respectively, using salt fractionation, gel filtration chromatography, cation-exchange HPLC, and reverse phase phenyl-silica HPLC. Immunoreactivity was identified using a combination of 3 NPY immunoassays which exhibit differing cross-reactivities for PYY (90%, less than 0.01% and 30% respectively). The yield at the final purification step was 1.2 nmol rPYY and 0.5 nmol rNPY. Half of each purified peptide was subjected to complete microsequence analysis. This showed that while rat NPY was structurally identical to human NPY, the sequence of PYY from rat colon was the same as porcine PYY isolated from extracts of duodenum.  相似文献

The apparent maximum corticosterone binding (B max) with rat brain cytosol and the apparent dissociation constant of this steroid-receptor binding (Kd) estimated with a Scatchard plot was 2.9 X 10(-13) moles/mg cytosol protein and 4.0 X 10(-9) M, respectively. When increasing amounts of CaCl2 or MgCl2 up to 5.0 mM were added, a specific [3H] corticosterone binding increased 4-fold by CaCl2 at concentrations of 1.0-2.0 mM and 1.5-fold by MgCl2 at concentrations of 0.5-5.0 mM. The addition of MnCl2 and KCl did not affect this binding. Binding of corticosterone with rat brain cytosol receptor(s) were decreased by increasing amounts of EGTA and complete inhibition was observed at concentrations equal to and greater than 2.5 mM. Inhibition of this binding by EDTA was less than by EGTA. Either theophylline or dibutyryl cyclic AMP had no effect on this binding.  相似文献
