1. The binding of [3H]-imipramine to brain membrane preparations of the insects, Periplaneta americana, Locusta migratoria and the mollusc, Helix pomatia was investigated.2. [3H]-Imipramine binding is similar in invertebrates and vertebrates although, in insects, the binding is independent of sodium.3. In the three invertebrate systems studied, [3H]-imipramine binding was inhibited by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) only at high concentrations (100 μM 5-HT caused 20–30% inhibition in insects and 10% inhibition in snail).4. Studies on binding and incorporation of [3H]-imipramine and [3H]-5-hydroxytryptamine indicate that the imipramine binding site differs from the 5-hydroxytryptamine recognition site of uptake.5. The [3H]-imipramine binding sites are not specific for 5-hydroxytryptamine and have similar affinity for dopamine. 相似文献

Abstract[3H]-Imipramine and [3H]-paroxetine label with high affinity a site which is associated with the serotonergic transporter in brain and platelets. The pharmacological profile of inhibition by drugs of [3H]-imipramine and [3H]-paroxetine binding is highly correlated with the potency of the drugs to inhibit the uptake of 5HT.Denervation of serotonergic neurons by electrolytic lesions or with 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine produces marked decreases in the density of [3H]-imipramine as well as [3H]-paroxetine binding. Dissociation kinetic experiments support the view that the substrate recognition site for 5HT is different from the modulatory site which is labelled by [3H]-imipramine or [3H]-paroxetine. The existence of an endogenous ligand acting on the [3H]-imipramine recognition site to modulate the 5HT transporter was proposed by several laboratories. 相似文献

Localization of histamine H1-receptors in subcellular fractions from rat and guinea pig brains was examined in a [3H]mepyramine binding study. Major [3H]mepyramine binding sites with increased specific activities [( 3H]mepyramine binding vs. protein amount) were recovered from P2 fractions from both rat and guinea pig brains by differential centrifugation. Further subfractionation of both rat and guinea pig P2 fractions by a discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation showed the highest recovery of [3H]mepyramine binding with further increased specific activities found in synaptic plasma membrane (SPM) fractions. Minor [3H]mepyramine binding sites with increased specific activities were detected in both rat and guinea pig P3 fractions. [3H]Mepyramine binding sites in SPM and P3 fractions showed identical Kd values in each species. These results indicate that histamine H1-receptors are located not only in synaptic but also in extra-synaptic membranes of both rat and guinea pig brains. 相似文献

It has been proposed that in vivo variability in response to certain hydrophobic chemicals or drugs, such as imipramine, may be due in part to the varying plasma lipid levels in patients. The distribution of [3H]imipramine into the lipoproteins of human plasma was therefore studied. Differential density centrifugation of plasma containing [3H]imipramine resulted in flotation of very low density, low density and high density lipoproteins (VLDL, LDL, HDL) and approximately one-third of the total 3H radioactivity. Twelve percent of the radioactivity was present in the sedimented fraction which included most of the plasma proteins. There appeared to be little specific binding of [3H]imipramine to VLDL or LDL, as shown by ultracentrifugation, dialysis and column chromatography. [3H]Imipramine was readily incorporated into cultured human fibroblasts;o no differences were observed in cellular uptake whether it was added to the medium in plasma, LDL or HDL. Also, no differences in uptake of [3H]imipramine by LDL-receptor positive and receptor negative cells were noted. These experiments indicate that LDL is not a major vehicle for the transport of this drug and that both the bound and free fractions are available for cellular uptake. 相似文献

Concanavalin A-Sepharose Affinity Chromatography of Axon Plasma Membrane Proteins. Heterogeneity of Cholinergic Binding Sites 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Abstract: Lysolecithin-solubilized proteins from axon plasma membranes of lobster walking leg nerve bundles were chromatographed on concanavalin A (Con A)-sepharose. Bound glycoproteins were eluted with α-methyl-D- mannoside. Near quantitative recovery of total protein was observed, 20–30% of the total protein being eluted in the Con A-binding glycoprotein fraction. A 5-fold enrichment of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was achieved, demonstrating the glycoprotein nature of the axonal enzyme. The chromatographed fractions were characterized for binding of [3 H]quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB), [3 nicotine (Nic), and [1251]α-bung arotoxin (BgTx) in an attempt to distinguish possible "muscarinic" and "nicotinic" binding sites in axonal membranes. All of the high-affinity "muscarinic" [3 H]QNB binding activity appeared in the non-Con A-binding protein fractions, while binding of the two "nicotinic" ligands, [3 Nic and 125 I-BgTx, was found in both the glycoprotein and non-Con A-binding protein fractions. BgTx interaction with the Con A-binding glycoproteins could be blocked with dtubocurarine, but BgTx binding in the non-Con A-binding proteins was not inhibited by curare. The significance of multiple cholinergic binding sites in axonal membranes is discussed. These data suggest a closer similarity between the cholinergic ligand binding proteins of peripheral nerve membrane and ganglia than between the axonal cholinergic binding sites and the ACh receptor of the neuromuscular junction. 相似文献

The distribution of alpha 1-adrenergic receptors in rat liver subcellular fractions was studied using the alpha 1-adrenergic receptor ligand [3H]prazosin. The highest number of [3H]prazosin binding sites was found in a plasma membrane fraction followed by 2 Golgi and a residual microsomal fraction, the numbers of binding sites were 1145, 845, 629 and 223 fmol/mg protein, respectively. When the binding in these fractions was compared with the activity of plasma membrane 'marker' enzymes in the same fractions a relative enrichment of [3H]prazosin binding sites was found in the residual microsomes and one of the Golgi fractions. Photoaffinity labelling with 125I-arylazidoprazosin in combination with SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the specific binding to 40 and 23 kDa entities in a Golgi fraction, while in plasma membranes the binders had an apparent molecular mass of 36 and 23 kDa. When [3H]prazosin was injected in vivo into rat portal blood followed by subcellular fractionation of liver, a pattern of an initial rapid decline and thereafter a slow decline of radioactivity was noted in all fractions. Additionally, in the two Golgi fractions a transient accumulation of radioactivity occurred between 5 and 10 min after the injection. The ED50 values for displacement of [3H]prazosin with adrenaline was lowest in the plasma membrane fraction, followed by the residual microsomes and Golgi fractions, the values were 10(-6), 10(-5) and 10(-4) mol/l, respectively. On the basis of lack of correlation between distribution of alpha 1-adrenergic antagonist binding and adenylate cyclase activity, differences in the molecular mass of alpha 1-adrenergic antagonist binders, differences in the kinetics of in vivo binding and accumulation of [3H]prazosin and also differences in agonist affinity between plasma membrane and Golgi fractions, it is concluded that alpha 1-adrenergic receptors are localized to low-density intracellular membranes involved in receptor biosynthesis and endocytosis. 相似文献

The role of extracellular binding proteins in the rate of [3H]palmitate uptake by neonatal cardiac myocytes and hepatocytes was investigated using a model-independent approach. Binding proteins used in this study included alpha1-acid glycoprotein [isoelectric point (pI) approximately 2.7], conalbumin (pI approximately 6.4), lysozyme (pI approximately 11.0), albumin (pI approximately 4.9), and albumin which had been modified to yield proteins with pI values of 3.5, 4.7, 7.5 and 8.6. All uptake studies were conducted at similar unbound ligand fractions. There was a linear relationship between the rate of neonatal hepatocyte [3H]palmitate clearance and protein pI (r2 = 0.98). In contrast, there was an overall poor relationship between neonatal cardiac myocyte [3H]palmitate-clearance rate and protein pI (r2 = 0.48). However, the relationship improved when the data on [3H]palmitate-clearance were analyzed using only the modified albumins. The study indicates that an ionic interaction between extracellular proteins and the hepatocyte surface enhances the overall uptake of [3H]palmitate. This interaction may be limited to albumin for neonatal cardiac myocytes. 相似文献

Subcellular distribution of leukotriene C4 binding units in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The subcellular distribution of specific binding sites for [3H]leukotriene C4 ([3H]LTC4) was analyzed after sedimentation of organelles from disrupted bovine aortic endothelial cells on sucrose density gradients and was shown to be in membrane fractions I (20% sucrose) and IV (35% sucrose). Saturation binding studies of [3H]LTC4 on endothelial cell monolayers at 4 degrees C demonstrated high-affinity binding sites with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 6.8 +/- 2.2 nM (mean +/- SD) and a density of 0.12 +/- 0.02 pmol/10(6) cells. At 4 degrees C, the specific binding of [3H]LTC4 by each of the subcellular fractions reached equilibrium at 30 min and remained stable for an additional 60 min. After 30 min of incubation with [3H]LTC4, the addition of excess unlabeled LTC4 to each subcellular fraction reversed more than 70% of [3H]LTC4 binding in 10 min. The [3H]LTC4 binding activities of subcellular fractions were enhanced approximately twofold to fourfold in the presence of Ca2+, Mg2+, and Mn2+, whereas Na+, K+, and Li+ were without effect. As measured by saturation experiments, the Kd and density of LTC4 binding sites in fraction I were 4.8 +/- 1.6 nM and 16.5 +/- 1.9 pmol/mg of protein, respectively, and in fraction IV were 4.7 +/- 1.5 nM and 81.4 +/- 19 pmol/mg of protein, respectively. Inhibition of [3H]LTC4 binding in membrane-enriched subcellular fractions I and IV by LTC4 occurred with molar inhibition constant (Ki) values of 4.5 +/- 0.1 nM and 4.7 +/- 1.2 nM, respectively, whereas Ki values for LTD4 were 570 +/- 330 nM and 62.5 +/- 32.8 nM, respectively, and for LTE4 were greater than 1000 nM for each fraction; LTB4 and reduced glutathione were even less active. FPL55712, a putative antagonist of the sulfidopeptide LT components of slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis, had Ki values of 1520 +/- 800 nM and 1180 +/- 720 nM for [3H]LTC4 binding sites on membrane-enriched subcellular fractions I and IV, respectively. Thus as defined by Kd, Ki, and specificity, the LTC4 binding units that are distributed to the plasma membrane and the binding units in the subcellular fraction of greater density were similar to each other. Pretreatment of the isolated subcellular membrane fractions with trypsin abolished [3H]LTC4 binding by fraction I, enriched for the plasma membrane marker 5' nucleotidase, and that by fraction IV, enriched for the mitochondrial membrane marker succinate-cytochrome C reductase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

The localization of histamine H3-receptors in subcellular fractions from the rat brain was examined in a [3H] (R) alpha-methylhistamine binding assay and compared with those of histamine H1- and adrenaline alpha 1- and alpha 2-receptors. Major [3H](R) alpha-methylhistamine binding sites with increased specific activities ([3H]ligand binding vs. protein amount) were recovered from the P2 fraction by differential centrifugation. Minor [3H](R)alpha-methylhistamine binding sites with increased specific activities were also detected in the P3 fraction. Further subfractionation of the P2 fraction by discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation showed major recoveries of [3H](R)alpha-methylhistamine binding in myelin (MYE) and synaptic plasma membrane (SPM) fractions. A further increase in specific activity was observed in the MYE fraction, but the SPM fraction showed no significant increase in specific activity. Adrenaline alpha 2-receptors, the pre-synaptic autoreceptors, in a [3H] yohimbine binding assay showed distribution patterns similar to histamine H3-receptors. On the other hand, post-synaptic histamine H1- and adrenaline alpha 1-receptors were closely localized and distributed mainly in the SPM fraction with increased specific activity. Only a negligible amount was recovered in the MYE fraction, unlike the histamine H3- and adrenaline alpha 2-receptors. 相似文献

[3H]Nimodipine binding was studied in isolated myocytes from rat heart and in partially purified sarcolemma, sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrial fractions from dog heart. In isolated myocytes, the density of [3H]nimodipine specific sites (106 per cell) was close to the density of [3H]QNB sites (0.8 × 106 per cell) and higher than that of [3H]DHA sites (0.2 × 106 per cell). During subcellular fractionation, [3H]nimodipine binding did not copurify with plasma membrane markers. The highest densities were found in fractions enriched in sarcolemma or in sarcoplasmic reticulum. No specific binding was found in mitochondria. These results indicate that the localization of [3H]nimodipine sites is not restricted to areas of the plasma membrane rich in β-adrenoceptors, muscarinic receptors and sodium pump sites. 相似文献

Bmax values of the specific binding of [3H]-WB 4101, [3H]-dihydroalprenolol, [3H]-spiperone and [3H]-imipramine to various rat brain regions were determined at 4 hr intervals over 24 hr under circadian conditions. No significant circadian rhythm of binding sites number was found for any receptor investigated in cerebral cortex, hypothalamus or brain stem. Some methodological issues are discussed. 相似文献

The distribution of plasma membrane markers, the sodium pump [evaluated as ouabain-sensitive, potassium-stimulated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase (K+-pNPPase)], [3H]saxitoxin binding, and 5'-AMPase, was studied in the subcellular fractions prepared from the homogenates of the longitudinal smooth muscle/myenteric plexus of dog ileum. The K+-pNPPase activity and [3H]-saxitoxin binding were found to be predominantly associated with the synaptosomal fraction as indicated by the high level of these activities in the crude synaptosomal fraction and by the copurification of K+-pNPPase and [3H]saxitoxin binding, but not 5'-AMPase, with several synaptosomal markers during the fractionation of the crude synaptosomal fraction on density gradients. In contrast to the K+-pNPPase activity and [3H]saxitoxin binding, the 5'-AMPase activity was found to be concentrated in the microsomal pellet. Further fractionation of microsomes on density gradient resulted in copurification of 5'-AMPase but not K+-pNPPase or [3H]saxitoxin binding, with other smooth muscle plasma membrane-bound enzymes, such as high-affinity Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, and Ca2+-ATPase. It was concluded that in the longitudinal smooth muscle/myenteric plexus, the sodium pump activity is present in higher density in the neuronal plasma membranes whereas 5'-AMPase activity is concentrated in the smooth muscle plasma membranes. 相似文献

The possibility that estrogen receptors may exist in uterine plasma membranes was investigated by covalent labeling of estrogen receptors in mouse uterine cells with [3H]tamoxifen aziridine (TA). Isolated epithelial and stromal cells of immature mice were incubated with [3H]TA in the presence or absence of unlabeled tamoxifen, homogenized and separated into nuclear, cytosolic and microsomal fractions by differential centrifugation. These fractions were subjected to SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the proteins labeled covalently with TA were visualized by autoradiography. Proteins labeled specifically with [3H]TA were observed almost exclusively in the nuclear fraction of both epithelial and stromal cells. In contrast, very little labeled protein was detected in the cytosolic or microsomal fraction. Although these data do not preclude the possibility that estrogen binding sites are present in plasma membranes of uterine cells, this cellular fraction is definitely not labeled to a significant extent by [3H]TA. Thus, if membrane estrogen binding sites exist, their structural conformations may be different from that of nuclear estrogen receptors. 相似文献

Rat hippocampal 5-hydroxytryptamine1A (5-HT1A) binding sites were solubilized with a yield of 34% using 3-[3-(cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propane sulfonate (CHAPS, 10 mM) as detergent. Kinetic analyses of [3H]8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin ([3H]8-OH-DPAT) binding indicated that the 5-HT1A sites exhibit the same properties in the soluble form as in the membrane-bound form. Furthermore, a positive correlation (r = 0.988) was found between the respective pIC50 values of a series of agonists and antagonists to inhibit [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding to either soluble or membrane-bound 5-HT1A sites. Gel filtration through Sephacryl S-400 as well as chromatography on wheat germ agglutinin (WGA)-agarose did not affect the modulation by guanine nucleotides (5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate) of [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding which suggests that the 5-HT1A binding subunit is a glycoprotein tightly attached to a G protein even in its soluble form. The [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding material eluted from Sephacryl S-400 had an apparent molecular mass of 155 kilodaltons, as expected from a heterodimer with one binding subunit (approximately 60 kilodaltons) and one G protein (approximately 80 kilodaltons). Marked enrichment in 5-HT1A binding sites relative to other soluble proteins was found in the peak fractions eluted from Sephacryl S-400 (by sixfold) and WGA-agarose (by 26-fold) columns, suggesting that these chromatographic steps might be of interest for the purification of central 5-HT1A receptors. 相似文献

Partially purified hen oviduct oestrogen receptors, charged with [3H]oestradiol, were shown to specifically bind in vitro to purified hen oviduct chromatin. Maximal binding occurred within 60min at 0 degrees C in a Tris buffer containing 0.1 M-KCl and 0.5 mM-phenylmethanesulphonyl fluoride. The binding of the [3H]oestradiol-receptor complexes to intact purified chromatin was saturable, whereas the receptor binding to hen DNA remained linear. Saturation was further demonstrated by the minimal acceptor binding of receptor charged with [3H]oestradiol plus 200-fold oestradiol compared with [3H]oestradiol receptors at equal [3H]oestradiol concentrations. Scatchard analysis of [3H]oestradiol-receptor binding to chromatin above DNA levels gave indications of high-affinity binding with a low capacity. Further, the nuclear binding was tissue-specific since the binding to hen spleen chromatin was negligible. To further uncover the specific acceptor sites, proteins were removed from hen oviduct chromatin by increasing concentrations of guanidine hydrochloride (1-7M). Those residual fractions extracted with 3-7 M-guanidine hydrochloride had the highest acceptor activity (above DNA levels) with the peak activity uncovered by 5 M-guanidine hydrochloride. To further characterize the oestrogen-receptor acceptor sites, oviduct chromatin was bound to hydroxyapatite in the presence of 3 M-NaCl and then protein fractions were extracted sequentially with 1-7 M-guanidine hydrochloride. Each fraction was then reconstituted to pure hen DNA by reverse gradient dialysis. [3H]Oestradiol receptors were found to bind to the greatest degree to the fraction reconstituted from the 5 M-guanidine hydrochloride protein extract. Reconstituted nucleoacidic proteins (NAP) from combined 4-7 M-guanidine hydrochloride protein extracts showed saturable binding by [3H]-oestradiol receptors, whereas binding to hen DNA did not saturate. The high affinity, low capacity, and specificity of binding of oestrogen receptors to NAP was similar to that found in intact chromatin. Thus, chromatin acceptor proteins for the oestrogen receptor have been partially isolated and characterized in the hen oviduct and display properties similar to that reported for the acceptor proteins of the progesterone receptor. 相似文献

Antibodies raised against synaptosomal plasma membranes of rat hippocampus (anti-HPC IgG) caused inhibition of [3H]noradrenaline, [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine, [3H]GABA and [3H]aspartate uptake into S1 fractions and slices of hippocampus and cerebral cortex, but not those of caudate nucleus and hypothalamus. Similar inhibition was not observed on using antibodies against synaptosomal membranes of rat caudate nucleus. Anti-HPC IgG raised against synaptosomal membranes of hippocampus failed to alter both spontaneous and K+-evoked release of [3H]noradrenaline. They did not interfere with the binding of [3H]desipramine (the potent noradrenaline-uptake inhibitor) and with the binding of [3H]dihydroalprenolol, thus excluding any interaction of the antibodies with drug receptors which are located on either the pre- or postsynaptic membrane. The anti-HPC IgG inhibit the enzymatic activity of [Na+-K+-]ATPase by 30% upon incubation of the antibodies with crude membrane preparations. A comparison of their inhibitory effects with those of the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine suggests that the corresponding hippocampal specific antigens are located at a presynaptic site. 相似文献

Nongenomic action of an insect steroid hormone, 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), has been implicated in several 20E-dependent events including the programmed cell death of Bombyx anterior silk glands (ASGs), but no information is available for the mode of the action. We provide evidence for a putative membrane receptor located in the plasma membrane of the ASGs. Membrane fractions prepared from the ASGs exhibit high binding activity to [3H]ponasterone A (PonA). The membrane fractions did not contain conventional ecdysone receptor as revealed by Western blot analysis using antibody raised against Bombyx ecdysone receptor A (EcR-A). The binding activity was not solubilized with 1 m NaCl or 0.05% (w/v) MEGA-8, indicating that the binding sites were localized in the membrane. Differential solubilization and temperature-induced phase separation in Triton X-114 showed that the binding sites might be integrated membrane proteins. These results indicated that the binding sites are located in plasma membrane proteins, which we putatively referred to as membrane ecdysone receptor (mEcR). The mEcR exhibited saturable binding for [3H]PonA (Kd = 17.3 nm, Bmax = 0.82 pmol.mg(-1) protein). Association and dissociation kinetics revealed that [3H]PonA associated with and dissociated from mEcR within minutes. The combined results support the existence of a plasmalemmal ecdysteroid receptor, which may act in concert with the conventional EcR in various 20E-dependent developmental events. 相似文献

Plasma membrane-enriched fractions from disrupted S49 lymphoma cells contained high affinity sites for [3H]nitrobenzylthioinosine, a potent and specific inhibitor of nucleoside transport. These sites were absent from similar preparations from AE1 cells, a nucleoside-transport deficient clone derived from the S49 cell line. Reversible binding of [3H]nitrobenzylthioinosine to the S49 membrane preparations was inhibited by adenosine, nitrobenzylthioguanosine, and dipyridamole. Exposure of S49 membrane preparations to UV light in the presence of [3H]nitrobenzylthioinosine resulted in the covalent radiolabeling of a membrane protein(s) which migrated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels with an apparent Mr of 45,000 to 66,000. Labeling of this protein was abolished in the presence of nitrobenzylthioguanosine and markedly reduced in the presence of adenosine and dipyridamole. AE1 membrane proteins were not covalently labeled under these conditions. 相似文献

In rat kidney high-affinity binding sites for [3H]Ro-5-4864 and [3H]PK-11195 with the properties of the peripheral-type acceptor were found enriched in mitochondrial (M) and light-mitochondrial-lysosomal (L) fractions on differential centrifugation. When the combined M and L fractions were subjected to sucrose density gradient centrifugation, these binding sites were found enriched at a density of 1.155 g/ml coincident with a population of light mitochondria, whereas a population of heavier mitochondria (rho = 1.175 g/ml) had few or no binding sites. Transmission electron microscopy showed that whereas the heavier mitochondria appeared highly pure and intact, the lighter mitochondria appeared less intact and to be contaminated with vesicular structures. After fractionation of the light mitochondria and vesicles by centrifugation, both fractions showed the same ratio of [3H]Ro-4864 binding sites to monoamine oxidase activity consistent with the vesicles being of mitochondrial outer-membrane origin. Digitonin pre-treatment had no effect on the density of acceptor-rich fractions on sucrose density gradient centrifugation. However, pretreatment with succinate/iodophenylnitrophenylphenyltetrazolium (INT) perturbed equally the density of acceptor-rich fractions and mitochondrial marker enzymes. When mitochondrial fractions were subjected to sonication prior to density gradient centrifugation the binding sites were now found highly enriched in a much lighter fraction coincident with the monoamine oxidase activity and thus consistent with being outer-membrane vesicles. When a mitochondrial fraction was subjected to hypotonic treatment before assay no evidence for activation/unmasking of binding sites was found. The hypotonic treatment did not release any inhibitor of the binding sites. These results are consistent with the peripheral benzodiazepine acceptor having an outer-membrane location on a sub-population of rat kidney mitochondria. Those mitochondria showing high levels of the acceptor are either light mitochondria or appear more susceptible to osmotic damage than those mitochondria in which the acceptor is absent or at low levels. 相似文献

A 68-kDa glycoprotein bearing the biological activity of the plasma membrane serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) transporter has been purified from human blood platelets, a classical cell model for the study of 5-HT uptake. After treatment of the whole platelet population or its plasma membrane fraction by sulfhydryl-dependent bacterial protein toxins or by digitonin, purification was reproducibly obtained by a one-step affinity chromatography using two different columns with 5-HT or 6-fluorotryptamine as ligands and elution by 5-HT or Na(+)-free buffer. The purified fraction migrated on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis as a single band with an apparent molecular mass of 68 kDa and exhibited an apparent isoelectric point of 5.6-6.2. Two sialic acid residues were detected in the purified material. The purified glycoprotein bound the 5-HT uptake blocker [3H]paroxetine with a Kd (0.25 nM) similar to the one observed for intact human platelets. It also bound [3H] 5-HT but neither [3H]hydroxytetrabenazine nor [3H] ouabain, the respective markers of the granular monoamine transporter and of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase associated to the plasma membrane 5-HT transporter. 5-HT derivatives and 5-HT uptake inhibitors exhibited similar Ki values for 5-HT uptake and paroxetine binding in intact human platelets and in the purified glycoprotein. Under laser UV irradiation, 40% of this purified glycoprotein could be labeled by either [3H]paroxetine or [3H]cyanoimipramine. No labeling was detected with either [3H] gamma-aminobutyric acid or [3H]GBR 12783, the respective markers of gamma-aminobutyric acid and dopamine carriers. The purified 68-kDa protein is therefore likely to correspond at least to the binding domain of the 5-HT transporter located at the human platelet plasma membrane. 相似文献
