The binding of (+)-[3H]5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d] cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate ([3H]MK-801) and N-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]-3,4-[3H]piperidine ([3H]TCP) to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor complex of human brain has been investigated. Significant differences were noted between the binding of the two ligands in the same tissue samples. Binding of both ligands was stimulated by addition of glutamic acid or glycine. However, addition of both compounds resulted in an additional effect with [3H]MK-801 but not [3H]TCP binding. Saturation analysis revealed approximately twice as many high-affinity sites for [3H]MK-801 (Bmax, 1,500 +/- 300 fmol/mg of protein) than for [3H]TCP (Bmax, 660 +/- 170 fmol/mg of protein). In addition, a low-affinity site was detected for [3H]MK-801 binding but not [3H]TCP binding. The pharmacology of the high-affinity [3H]MK-801 and [3H]TCP binding sites was similar with rank order of potency of inhibitors being MK801 greater than TCP greater than phencyclidine greater than N-allylnormetazocine (SKF 10047). 2-Amino-5-phosphonopentanoate inhibited binding of both ligands with comparable potency whereas both 7-chlorokynurenic acid and ZnCl2 were more potent inhibitors of [3H]MK-801 than of [3H]TCP binding. All compounds examined exhibited Hill coefficients of significantly less than unity. Saturation analysis performed in the striatum revealed that the number of binding sites was the same for both [3H]MK-801 (Bmax, 1,403 +/- 394 fmol/mg) and [3H]TCP (Bmax, 1,292 +/- 305 fmol/mg). Addition of glutamate or glycine stimulated striatal binding but there was no further increase on addition of both together.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

This study examined (+)-[3H]5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d] cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate [( 3H]MK801) binding to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in membranes prepared from six regions of rat brain. Highest levels of binding were found in hippocampus and cortex, whereas much lower densities were found in brainstem and cerebellum. NMDA receptors in cerebellum exhibited a significantly lower affinity for [3H]MK801 than cortical NMDA receptors. To determine whether forebrain and hindbrain NMDA receptors were distinct, the actions of glutamate, NMDA, ibotenate, quinolinate, glycine, and spermine were investigated. These agents increased [3H]MK801 binding in all brain regions examined. However, agonists were uniformly less efficacious in hindbrain compared to forebrain regions. NMDA mimetics and spermine were less potent in cerebellum compared to cortex whereas glycine was equipotent. Antagonists that act at the various modulatory sites on the NMDA receptor were also examined. DL-Amino-phosphonopentanoic acid and 7-chlorokynurenate were approximately equipotent in cortex and cerebellum. However, antagonists that are believed to act inside the NMDA-operated ion channel, including Mg2+ and phencyclidine, were approximately threefold less potent in cerebellum. The diminished regulation of [3H]MK801 binding by glutamate and glycine in the cerebellum was associated with a smaller effect of these agonists on the dissociation of [3H]MK801 from its binding site. The levels of glutamate, aspartate, glycine, serine, and glutamine in the membrane preparations were determined. However, variations in the levels of endogenous amino acids were not sufficient to account for the regional differences in [3H]MK801 binding. These results do not support the hypothesis that a distinct NMDA receptor exists in hindbrian regions of the rat CNS.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Abstract: Quantitative autoradiography of [3H]MK-801 binding was used to characterize regional differences in N -methyl- d -aspartate (NMDA) receptor pharmacology in rat CNS. Regionally distinct populations of NMDA receptors were distinguished on the basis of regulation of [3H]MK-801 binding by the NMDA antagonist 3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)-propyl-1-phosphonic acid (CPP). CPP inhibited [3H]MK-801 binding in outer cortex (OC) and medial cortex (MC) with apparent K i values of 0.32-0.48 μ M , whereas in the medial striatum (MS), lateral striatum (LS), CA1, and dentate gyrus (DG) of hippocampus, apparent K i values were 1.1-1.6 μ M . In medial thalamus (MT) and lateral thalamus (LT) the apparent K i values were 0.78 μ M . In the presence of added glutamate (3 μ M ), the relative differences in apparent K i values between regions maintained a similar relationship with the exception of the OC. Inhibition of [3H]MK-801 binding by the glycine site antagonist 7-chlorokynurenic acid (7-ClKyn) distinguished at least two populations of NMDA receptors that differed from populations defined by CPP displacement. 7-ClKyn inhibited [3H]MK-801 binding in OC, MC, MS, and LS with apparent K i values of 6.3-8.6 μ M , whereas in CA1, DG, LT, and MT, K i values were 11.4-13.6 μ M . In the presence of added glycine (1 μ M ), the relative differences in apparent K i values were maintained. Under conditions of differential receptor activation, regional differences in NMDA receptor pharmacology can be detected using [3H]MK-801 binding.  相似文献

Spermine and spermidine enhance the binding of [3H](+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a, d]cyclohepten-5,10-imine ([3H]MK-801) to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in membranes prepared from rat brain. These polyamines also enhance binding of [3H]MK-801 to NMDA receptors that have been solubilized with deoxycholate. Other polyamines selectively antagonize this effect, a finding indicating that the polyamine recognition site retains pharmacological and structural specificity after solubilization. In the presence of spermidine, an increase in the affinity of the solubilized NMDA receptor for [3H]MK-801 is observed. However, the rates of both association and dissociation of [3H]MK-801 binding to solubilized NMDA receptors are accelerated when assays are carried out in the presence of spermidine. When kinetic data are transformed, pseudo-first-order association and first-order dissociation plots are nonlinear in the presence of spermidine, an observation indicating a complex binding mechanism. Effects of spermidine on solubilized NMDA receptors are similar to effects previously described in studies of membrane-bound receptors. The data indicate that polyamines interact with a specific recognition site that remains associated with other components of the NMDA receptor complex after detergent solubilization.  相似文献

The pharmacological specificity and the regional distribution of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-associated 5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-imine maleate (MK-801) binding sites in human postmortem brain tissue were determined by binding studies using (+)-[3H]MK-801. Scatchard analysis revealed a high-affinity (KD = 0.9 +/- 0.2 nM, Bmax = 499 +/- 33 fmol/mg of protein) and a low-affinity (KD = 3.6 +/- 0.9 nM, Bmax = 194 +/- 44 fmol/mg of protein) binding site. The high-affinity site showed a different regional distribution of receptor density (cortex greater than hippocampus greater than striatum) compared to the low-affinity binding site (cerebellum greater than brainstem). The rank order pharmacological specificity and stereoselectivity of the high-(cortex) and low-(cerebellar) affinity binding sites were identical. However, all compounds tested showed greater potency at the high-affinity site in cortex. The results indicate that (+)-[3H]MK-801 binding in human postmortem brain tissue shows pharmacological and regional specificity.  相似文献

In brain synaptic membranes not extensively washed, (+)-5-[3H]methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]-cyclohepten-5, 10-imine ([3H]MK-801) binding was markedly inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner (at concentrations above 1 microM) by several compounds having antagonistic activity at the Ca(2+)-binding protein calmodulin. Scatchard analysis revealed that N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) inhibited the binding through a significant decrease in the density of binding sites without affecting the affinity at 10 microM. In membranes extensively washed and treated with a low concentration of Triton X-100, L-glutamic acid (Glu) drastically accelerated the initial association rate of [3H]MK-801 binding with glycine (Gly), almost doubling the initial association rate found in the presence of Glu alone. The addition of W-7 invariably reduced the initial association rate observed in the presence of either Glu alone or both Glu and Gly, without significantly altering the dissociation rate of bound [3H]-MK-801, irrespective of the presence of the two stimulatory amino acids. The maximal potencies of Glu, Gly, and spermidine in potentiating the binding were all attenuated by W-7. These results suggest that calmodulin antagonists may interfere with opening processes of an ion channel associated with an N-methyl-D-aspartate-sensitive subclass of excitatory amino acid receptors in rat brain.  相似文献

Binding activity of [3H]thienylcyclohexylpiperidine was examined using rat brain synaptic membranes treated with Triton X-100. This compound is proposed to be a noncompetitive antagonist for the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-sensitive subclass of brain excitatory amino acid receptors. The activity decreased in proportion to increasing concentrations of the detergent up to 0.08%. In vitro addition of L-glutamate (Glu) partially restored the decreased activity caused by this Triton treatment, whereas further addition of glycine (Gly) entirely reversed the loss of activity to the level found in membranes extensively washed but not treated with a detergent. These stimulatory effects were found to be due to the acceleration of the association of ligand. The rank order of potentiation of the activity coincided well with that of the affinity for the NMDA-sensitive subclass among numerous Glu analogs. The potentiation by Gly as well as Glu was invariably prevented by competitive NMDA antagonists, such as DL-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate and (+/-)-3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonate, but not by strychnine. No significant difference was observed between pharmacological profiles of the activities in synaptic membranes treated and not treated with Triton X-100, except haloperidol. The potency of this sigma-ligand to inhibit the activity was greatly reduced by the Triton treatment in the presence of both Glu and Gly. These results suggest that the regulatory properties of Triton-treated synaptic membranes remain unchanged in terms of the interaction within the NMDA receptor complex.  相似文献

We examined the effects of in vivo hypoxia (10% O2/90% N2) on the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)/benzodiazepine receptors and on glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) activity in the rat brain. Male Wistar rats were exposed to a mixture of 10% O2 and 90% N2 in a chamber for various periods (3, 6, 12, and 24 h). The control rats were exposed to room air. The brain regions examined were the cerebral cortex, striatum, hippocampus, and cerebellum. GABA and benzodiazepine receptors were assessed using [3H]muscimol and [3H]flunitrazepam, respectively. Compared with control values, GAD activity was decreased significantly following a 6-h exposure to hypoxia in all four regions studied. On the other hand, the numbers of both [3H]muscimol and [3H]flunitrazepam binding sites were increased significantly. The increase in receptor number tended to return to control values after 24 h. Treatment of the membrane preparations with 0.05% Triton X-100 eliminated the increase in the binding capacity. These results may represent an up-regulation of postsynaptically located GABA/benzodiazepine receptors corresponding to the impaired presynaptic activity under hypoxia.  相似文献

Abstract: [3H]Diazepam and [3H]flunitrazepam ([3H]FNP) binding to washed and frozen synaptosomal membranes from rat cerebral cortex were compared. In Tris-citrate buffer, γ -aminobutyric acid (GABA) and NaCl both increased [3H]diazepam binding more than [3H]FNP binding. GABA and pentobarbital both enhanced this effect of NaCl. Because of the extremely rapid dissociation of [3H]diazepam in the absence of NaCl and GABA, the Bmax (maximal binding capacity) was smaller by the filtration assay than by the centrifugation assay. [3H]FNP, which dissociates more slowly, had the same Bmax in both assays. [3H]Diazepam association had two components, and was faster than [3H]FNP association. [3H]Diazepam dissociation, which also had two components, was faster than that of [3H]FNP, and also had a greater fraction of rapidly dissociating species. [3H]FNP dissociation was similar when initiated by diazepam, flunitrazepam, clonazepam, or Ro15-1788, which is a benzodiazepine antagonist. [3H]Diazepam dissociation with Ro15-1788, flunitrazepam, or clonazepam was slower than with diazepam. GABA and NaCl, but not pentobarbital, increased the percentage of slowly dissociating species. This effect of NaCl was potentiated by GABA and pentobarbital. The results support the cyclic model of benzodiazepine receptors existing in two interconvertible conformations, and suggest that, distinct from their binding affinity, some ligands (like flunitrazepam) are better than others (like diazepam) in inducing the conversion of the receptor to the higher-affinity state.  相似文献

A [3H]glycine recognition site in rat brain synaptic plasma membranes (SPM) has been identified, having characteristics expected of a modulatory component of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor complex. Incubation of SPM with [3H]glycine for 10 min at 2 degrees C results in saturable, reversible binding with a KD of 0.234 microM and a Bmax of 9.18 pmol/mg. A pharmacological analysis of this binding site indicates that D-serine (Ki = 0.27 microM), D-alanine (Ki = 1.02 microM), and D-cycloserine (Ki = 2.33 microM) are potent inhibitors of binding, whereas the corresponding L isomers have significantly less activity (Ki = 25.4 microM, 15.9 microM, and greater than 100 microM, respectively). Inactive at concentrations of up to 100 microM were strychnine, L-valine, N,N-dimethylglycine, aminomethylphosphonate, and aminomethylsulfonate. The active compounds were analyzed further for their ability to stimulate [3H]1-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine [( 3H]TCP) binding to Triton X-100-washed SPM. Results indicate that the affinity of the compounds for the [3H]glycine recognition site correlates with the ability of these analogues to stimulate [3H]TCP binding.  相似文献

The presence of a [3H]muscimol binding site on the purified benzodiazepine receptor was demonstrated. The purified protein was apparently homogeneous as shown by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (stained with silver), with a molecular weight of 60,000 +/- 3000. The benzodiazepine binding sites were characterized as being of the central type and the [3H]flunitrazepam binding was enhanced by GABA. This activation was antagonized by bicuculline. [3H]Muscimol specifically binds to the benzodiazepine receptor. The Scatchard plot indicates a Kd of 23 nM and the ratio [3H]flunitrazepam/[3H]muscimol is approximately unity.  相似文献

I. Binding of [3H]apomorphine to dopaminergic receptors in rat striatum was most reproducible and clearly detectable when incubations were run at 25°C in Tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.5, containing 1 mM-EDTA and 0.01% ascorbic acid, using a washed total-membrane fraction. The receptor binding was stereospecifically inhibited by (+)-butaclamol, and dopamine agonists and antagonists showed high binding affinity for these sites. Unlabelled apomorphine inhibited an additional nonstereospecific binding site, which was unrelated to dopamine receptors. EDTA in the incubation mixture considerably lowered nonstereospecific [3H]apomorphine binding, apparently by preventing the complexation of the catechol moiety with metal ions which were demonstrated in membrane preparations. Stereospecific [3H]apomorphine binding was not detectable in the frontal cortex, whereas in the absence of EDTA much saturable nonstereospecific binding occurred. II. Kinetic patterns of stereospecific [3H]spiperone and [3H] apomorphine binding to rat striatal membranes and the inhibition patterns of a dopamine antagonist and an agonist were evaluated at different temperatures in high-ionic-strength Tris buffer with salts added and low-ionic-strength Tris buffer with EDTA. Apparent KD, values of spiperone decreased with decreasing tissue concentrations. KD, values of both spiperone and apomorphine were little influenced by temperature changes. Scatchard plots of the stereospecific binding changed from linear to curved; the amount of nonstereospecific binding of the 3H ligands varied considerably, but in opposite directions for spiperone and apomorphine in the different buffers. In various assay conditions, interactions between agonists, and between antagonists, appeared fully competitive, but agonist-antagonist interactions were of mixed type. The anomalous binding patterns are interpreted in terms of surface phenomena occurring upon reactions of a ligand with complex physicochemical properties and nonsolubilized sites on membranes suspended in a buffered aqueous solution. It is concluded that anomalous binding patterns are not necessarily an indication of binding to multiple sites or involvement of distinct receptors for high-affinity agonist and antagonist binding.  相似文献

Endogenous divalent cations, such as Mg2+, Ca2+, and Zn2+, differentially affected the binding of (+)-[3H]5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-imi ne maleate ([3H]MK-801) to an ion channel associated with an N-methyl-D-aspartate-sensitive subclass of excitatory amino acid receptors in different preparations of brain synaptic membranes. Both Mg2+ and Ca2+ were weak inhibitors of the binding in membranes which had not been extensively washed (nonwashed membranes), over a concentration range effective in markedly potentiating the binding in the absence of any added stimulants in membranes which had been extensively washed, but not treated with a detergent (untreated membranes). In membranes extensively washed and treated with Triton X-100 (Triton-treated membranes), both cations significantly potentiated the binding in the presence of added glutamate alone. In contrast, Zn2+ was invariably active as a potent inhibitor of the binding irrespective of the membrane preparations used. In untreated membranes, Ca2+ markedly accelerated the initial association rate of [3H]MK-801 binding without affecting the binding at equilibrium in a manner similar to that found with glycine, as well as with glutamate; Mg2+, however, facilitated the initial association rate with a concomitant reduction of the binding at equilibrium. Zn2+ was effective in accelerating the initial rapid phase of association, with the initial slow phase being delayed, and in markedly reducing the binding at equilibrium. Both Mg2+ and Ca2+ also facilitated dissociation of the bound [3H]MK-801 and Zn2+ slowed the dissociation in untreated membranes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The sigma opiates differ from other opiates in their stimulatory and psychotomimetic actions. The sigma opiate [3H](-)-SKF-10,047 has been used to characterize sigma receptors in rat nervous tissue. Binding of [3H](-)-SKF-10,047 to rat brain membranes was of high affinity, saturable, and reversible. Scatchard analysis revealed the apparent interaction of this drug with two distinct binding sites characterized by affinities of 0.03 and 75 nM (5 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.4, at 4 degrees C). Competition analyses involving rank order determinations for a series of opiates and other drugs indicate that the high-affinity binding site is the mu opiate receptor. The lower-affinity site (revealed after suppression of mu and delta receptor binding) has been identified as the sigma opiate/phencyclidine receptor. In vitro autoradiography has been used to visualize neuroanatomical patterns of receptors labeled using [3H](-)-SKF-10,047 in the presence of normorphine and [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin to block mu and delta interactions, respectively. Labeling patterns differ markedly from those for mu, delta, or kappa receptors. The highest densities (determined by quantitative autoradiography) are found in the medial portion of the nucleus accumbens, amygdaloid nucleus, hippocampal formation, central gray, locus coeruleus, and the parabrachial nuclei. Receptors in these structures could account for the stimulatory, mood-altering, and analgesic properties of the sigma opiates. Although not the most selective sigma opiate ligand, [3H](-)-SKF-10,047 binds to sigma opiate receptors in brain, and this interaction can be readily distinguished from its interactions with other classes of brain opiate receptors.  相似文献

Abstract: The binding of [3H]spiperone, a neuroleptic/dopamine receptor ligand, to membranes of the ventral tegmental area of the rat was studied in vitro and found to be rapid, saturable, reversible, and of high affinity. Specific binding was displaced by the dopaminergic agonists dopamine, apomorphine, and 2-amino-6,7-dihydroxytetralin, and stereospecifically by the neuroleptic drugs butaclamol and flupenthixol. Bromocryptine and other ergots displaced the binding, as did the D-2 antagonists domperidone, molindone, metoclopramide, and sulpiride. Noradrenergic, histaminergic, and serotonergic components of the binding were not detected in displacement studies with various agonists and antagonists. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that [3H]spiperone labels dopamine receptors in the ventral tegmental area that are not linked to adenylate cyclase and are therefore likely to be of the D-2 type.  相似文献

The binding of [125I]beta h-endorphin to rat brain membranes was investigated in the presence of GTP and guanylyl-5'-imidodiphosphate. In contrast to the binding of the mu-selective opioid agonist, [3H][D-Ala2,MePhe4,Glyol5]enkephalin, and the delta-selective opioid agonist, [3H][D-penicillamine2, D-penicillamine5]enkephalin, [125I]beta h-endorphin binding was not affected by GTP or guanylyl-5'-imidodiphosphate in a concentration-dependent manner in the absence of cations. However, in the presence of NaCl, the inclusion of either GTP or guanylyl-5'-imidodiphosphate resulted in a concentration-dependent inhibition of [125I]beta h-endorphin binding. This inhibition was significantly greater than the decrease in [125I]beta h-endorphin binding observed in the presence of sodium alone. Although GTP most potently inhibited [125I]beta h-endorphin binding in the presence of sodium, inhibition of [125I]beta h-endorphin binding by GTP was also observed in the presence of the monovalent cations lithium and potassium, but not the divalent cations magnesium, calcium, or manganese. The effect produced by GTP in the presence of NaCl was mimicked by GDP, but not by GMP or other nucleotides. Unlike [125I]beta h-endorphin, the binding of the putative sigma receptor agonist, (+)-[3H]SKF 10,047, was not significantly altered by GTP or guanylyl-5'-imidodiphosphate in the absence or presence of sodium.  相似文献

Abstract: N -Methyl- d -asparate receptors (NMDARs) are a major target of ethanol effects in the nervous system. Haloperidol-insensitive, but dizocilpine (MK-801)-sensitive, binding of N -[1-(2-[3H]thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine ([3H]TCP) to synaptic membranes has the characteristics of ligand interaction with the ion channel of NMDARs. In the present studies, ethanol produced a concentration-dependent decrease in the maximal activation of [3H]TCP binding to synaptic membranes by NMDA and Gly, but a moderate change in the activation by l -Glu when l -Glu was present at concentrations < 100 µ M . However, ethanol (100 m M ) inhibited completely the activation of [3H]TCP binding produced by high concentrations of l -Glu (200–400 µ M ). It also inhibited strongly the activation of [3H]TCP binding by spermidine or spermidine plus Gly. In a purified complex of proteins that has l -Glu-, Gly-, and [3H]TCP-binding sites, ethanol (100 m M ) decreased significantly the maximal activation of [3H]TCP binding produced by either l -Glu or Gly. Activation constants ( K act) for l -Glu and Gly acting on the purified complex were 12 and 28 µ M, respectively. Ethanol had no significant effect on the K act of l -Glu but caused an increase in the K act of Gly. These studies have identified at least one protein complex in neuronal membranes whose response to both l -Glu and Gly is inhibited by ethanol. These findings may explain some of the effects of acute and chronic ethanol treatment on the function and expression of the subunits of this complex in brain neurons.  相似文献

[3H]Quipazine was used to label binding sites in rat brain membranes that display characteristics of a 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) receptor. The radioligand binds with high affinity (KD, 1.2 +/- 0.1 nM) to a saturable population of sites (Bmax, 3.0 +/- 0.4 pmol/g of tissue) that are differentially located in the brain. Specific [3H]quipazine binding is not affected by guanine or adenine nucleotides. ICS 205-930, BRL 43964, Lilly 278584, and zacopride display less than nanomolar affinity for these sites whereas MDL 72222 is approximately one order of magnitude less potent. The pharmacological profile of the binding site is in excellent agreement with that of 5-HT3 receptors characterized in peripheral physiological models. We conclude that [3H]quipazine labels a 5-HT3 receptor in the rat CNS.  相似文献

Abstract: The binding of [3H]NS 257 {1,2,3,6,7,8-hexahydro-3-(hydroxyimino)- N,N -[3H]dimethyl-7-methyl-2-oxobenzo[2,1- b :3,4- c '] dipyrrole-5-sulfonamide} to rat cortical membranes was characterized in the absence and presence of thiocyanate. Specific [3H]NS 257 binding was saturable and reversible, and the stimulating effect of thiocyanate on binding was optimal at 100 m M . In the presence of thiocyanate [3H]NS 257 bound to a single population of binding sites with an affinity of 225 ± 8 n M and a binding site density of 0.61 ± 0.04 pmol/mg of original tissue. Thiocyanate increased the affinity of the binding site labeled by [3H]NS 257 for both α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA) and l -glutamate by a factor of 20 and 5, respectively. However, the affinity of the agonist domoate and the antagonists 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX) and 2,3-dihydroxy-6-nitro-7-sulfamoylbenzo( f )-quinoxaline (NBQX) was decreased in the presence of thiocyanate. Apparently, the affinities of antagonists as well as agonists for the AMPA receptor can be either increased or decreased by thiocyanate. The rank order of potency of the putative agonists quisqualate > AMPA > l -glutamate > domoate > kainate and of the antagonists NBQX > CNQX is consistent with the labeling of AMPA receptors. Autoradiographic studies showed that the distribution of [3H]NS 257 binding sites in rat brain was similar to that of [3H]AMPA binding sites. NS 257 is the first AMPA antagonist to be described showing an increased affinity for the AMPA receptor in the presence of thiocyanate.  相似文献

Abstract: The effects of AMPA and kainate on [3H]dopamine release from fetal (embryonic day 15) rat mesencephalic neurons in primary culture were enhanced markedly in a dose-dependent fashion by cyclothiazide, a recently described inhibitor of AMPA receptor desensitization. The EC50 value for cyclothiazide was 2.2 ± 0.8 µ M . The release of [3H]dopamine induced by both AMPA (or kainic acid) and the combination of AMPA (or kainic acid) with cyclothiazide was antagonized by specific antagonists like 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione or the noncompetitive benzodiazepine GYKI 52466. Unlike cyclothiazide, the lectin concanavalin A did not stimulate [3H]dopamine release. These results established the involvement of AMPA-preferring receptors on [3H]dopamine release from rat mesencephalic neurons in primary culture and provided further evidence for the existence of regulatory allosteric sites on AMPA receptor subunits.  相似文献
