Abstract: 3-(1,2,5,6-Tetrahydro-4-pyridyl)-5- n -propoxyindole (CP-96,501) was found to be a more selective ligand at the serotonin 5-HT1B receptor than the commonly used 5-HT1B agonist, 3-(1,2,5,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl)-5-methoxyindole (RU 24969). In rat brain membranes, the tritiated derivative, [3H]CP-96,501, was found to bind with a high affinity ( K D, 0.21 n M ) to a single binding site ( n H, 1.0). The receptor density of this site ( B max, 72 fmol/mg of protein) matched that of the 5-HT1B receptor determined with [3H]5-HT. Competition curves of 16 serotonergic compounds in [3H]CP-96,501 binding also indicated a single binding site. The rank order of their binding affinities with this new radioligand showed a high degree of correlation with their affinities at the 5-HT1B receptor determined with [3H]5-HT or [125I]iodocyanopindolol. Serotonergic compounds displayed competitive inhibition of [3H]CP-96,501 binding. In the presence of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate [Gpp(NH)p], [3H]CP-96,501 binding was reduced, while the potency of CP-96,501 to displace [125I]iodocyanopindolol binding was also decreased. These findings are consistent with the agonist nature of CP-96,501. The results of this study suggest that [3H]CP-96,501 is a useful agonist radioligand for the 5-HT1B receptor.  相似文献

Abstract: The characteristics of spiperone inhibition of [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine ([3H]5-HT; [3H]serotonin) binding were examined in dorsal (DH) and ventral (VH) hippocampus, corpus striatum (CS) or caudate nucleus (CN), and frontal cortex (FC) in the rabbit, guinea pig, and cat. Some of the properties of spiperone inhibition of [3H]5-HT binding in these species were similar to the properties previously found in the rat. Spiperone was significantly more potent in DH, VH, and FC than in CS or CN. It produced shallow or biphasic inhibition curves, resulting in Hill slopes of less than 1.0. Nonlinear regression analysis of the data showed that the inhibition curves fit a two-site binding model significantly better than a one-site model in each brain region. The dissociation constants of spiperone for the high-affinity binding site ( K H) for all the tissues and species, except cat FC and rabbit DH, were very close to those previously found in the rat (2-13 n M ). However, the dissociation constants for the low-affinity binding site ( K L) were different from those in the rat in all species and tissues examined, except cat FC and CS. The present data are consistent with the concept of multiple 5-HT1 binding sites and suggest the presence of at least two, and perhaps as many as three, groups of sites in the mammalian brain.  相似文献

[3H]Spiroxatrine: A 5-HT1A Radioligand with Agonist Binding Properties   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Spiroxatrine has been reported to be a 5-HT1A serotonin receptor antagonist. Therefore [3H]spiroxatrine was synthesized and its 5-HT1A receptor binding properties in homogenates of rat hippocampal membranes were characterized with the expectation that it would be the first 5-HT1A antagonist radioligand. [3H]8-Hydroxydipropylaminotetralin [( 3H]8-OH-DPAT), a well-characterized 5-HT1A agonist radioligand, was studied in parallel for comparative purposes. Scatchard analyses of saturation studies of [3H]spiroxatrine and [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding produced KD values of 0.9 nM and 1.8 nM, with Bmax values of 424 and 360 fmol/mg protein, respectively. A highly significant correlation (r = 0.98; p less than 0.001) exists between Ki values obtained for a series of drugs in competing for [3H]-spiroxatrine and [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding. Of special interest was the observation that 5-HT1A agonists such as serotonin, 8-OH-DPAT, and ipsapirone competed with equal high affinities for [3H]spiroxatrine or [3H]8-OH-DPAT-labelled 5-HT1A receptors. [3H]Spiroxatrine and [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding to 5-HT1A receptors was inhibited by guanosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate (a nonhydrolyzable analog of GTP) in a concentration-dependent manner whereas adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imido)triphosphate (a nonhydrolyzable analog of ATP) had no effect. The similarities in the 5-HT1A receptor radiolabelling properties of [3H]spiroxatrine and [3H]8-OH-DPAT, i.e., the high affinities of agonists and the guanyl nucleotide sensitivity, indicate that [3H]spiroxatrine has "agonist-like" binding properties in its interaction with the 5-HT1A receptor.  相似文献

We previously observed that the neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) binds with high- and low-affinity interactions to an actin-like protein prepared from rat brain synaptosomes. In this study, we examined its binding to highly purified actin obtained from rabbit skeletal muscle. Monomeric G-actin bound serotonin with high and low affinities, exhibiting equilibrium dissociation constants (KD values) of 5 X 10(-5) M and 4 X 10(-3) M, respectively. The serotonin binding site on actin was distinct from those sites previously characterized for divalent cations, nucleotides, and cytochalasin alkaloids. The binding of serotonin (1 microM) to G-actin was increased as much as 26-fold by divalent cations. Potassium iodine (KI) increased the affinity of G-actin for serotonin, KD values for this binding being 3 X 10(-7) M and X 10(-5) M. Serotonin bound with even higher affinity to polymerized F-actin, with KD values of 2 X 10(-8) M and 2 X 10(-5) M. However, the total number of binding sites on F-actin was only about 4% of the number of G-actin. The binding of serotonin (0.1 microM) to G-actin could be inhibited by phenothiazines (1 microM) or reserpine (10 microM), but not by classical antagonists of serotonin receptors or by drugs that release serotonin or inhibit its uptake. The binding of serotonin to actin in vivo may participate in a contractile process related to neurotransmitter release.  相似文献

Tricyclic antidepressant drugs inhibit [3H]imipramine binding to the rat brain cortex in a competitive manner, giving linear Hofstee plots and Hill coefficients of approximately 1.0. Serotonin, the only neurotransmitter to inhibit [3H]imipramine binding, does so in a complex manner, exhibiting a Hill coefficient of 0.40-0.50. Nontricyclic inhibitors of serotonin uptake such as fluoxetine, paroxetine, norzimelidine, and citalopram inhibit [3H]imipramine binding in the same complex manner as serotonin. These results are interpreted as suggesting that [3H]imipramine binds to a site associated with the serotonin uptake system but different from either the substrate recognition site for serotonin or the site of action of the nontricyclic inhibitors of neuronal uptake of serotonin.  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: Efficacies of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) 5-HT3 receptor (5-HT3R) agonists 2-methyl-5-HT, dopamine, and m -chlorophenylbiguanide on 5-HT3R native to N1E-115 cells and on homopentameric 5-HT3R expressed in Xenopus oocytes were determined relative to that of 5-HT. Efficacies of 2-methyl-5-HT and dopamine on 5-HT3R native to differentiated N1E-115 cells are high (54 and 36%) as compared with their efficacies on homopentameric 5-HT3R-AL and 5-HT3R-As receptors expressed in oocytes (4–8%). m -Chlorophenylbiguanide does not distinguish between 5-HT3R in N1E-115 cells and in oocytes. The distinct pharmacological profile of 5-HT3R native to differentiated N1E-115 cells is conserved when poly(A)+ mRNA from these cells is expressed in oocytes. The results indicate that, apart from the known 5-HT3R subunits, N1E-115 cells express additional proteins involved in 5-HT3R function.  相似文献

Ascorbate is present in millimolar concentrations in mammalian brain and can be released from cellular stores by membrane depolarization. We report here that physiologically relevant concentrations of ascorbate modulate 5-[3H]hydroxytryptamine ([3H]5-HT) binding to bovine frontal cortex membranes. Under conditions where [3H]5-HT binding is reversible and saturable, ascorbate causes a concentration-dependent increase in the affinity of [3H]5-HT for central 5-HT3 binding sites. At pH 7.4, increasing ascorbate from 0 to 5.7 mM changes the equilibrium affinity constant (KD) of binding to 5-HT3 sites from 125 nM to 30 nM, without affecting binding site number. These ascorbate-induced effects are pH dependent. At pH 7.1 binding to central 5-HT3 sites is essentially eliminated in the presence of ascorbate. These studies suggest that ascorbate and hydrogen ion concentration interactions may modulate serotonergic function.  相似文献

Abstract: Cholinesterases form a family of serine esterases that arise in animals from at least two distinct genes. Multiple forms of these enzymes can be precisely localized and regulated by alternative mRNA splicing and by co- or posttranslational modifications. The high catalytic efficiency of the cholinesterases is quelled by certain very selective reversible and irreversible inhibitors. Owing largely to the important role of acetylcholine hydrolysis in neurotransmission, cholinesterase and its inhibitors have been studied extensively in vivo. In parallel, there has emerged an equally impressive enzyme chemistry literature. Cholinesterase inhibitors are used widely as pesticides; in this regard the compounds are beneficial with concomitant health risk. Poisoning by such compounds can result in an acute but usually manageable medical crisis and may damage the CNS and the PNS, as well as cardiac and skeletal muscle tissue. Some inhibitors have been useful for the treatment of glaucoma and myasthenia gravis, and others are in clinical trials as therapy for Alzheimer's dementia. Concurrently, the most potent inhibitors have been developed as highly toxic chemical warfare agents. We review treatments and sequelae of exposure to selected anticholinesterases, especially organophosphorus compounds and carbamates, as they relate to recent progress in enzyme chemistry.  相似文献

In the presence of 1 microM ( +/- )-pindolol [to block 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) 5-HT 1A and 5-HT 1B receptors] and 100 nM mesulergine (to block 5-HT 1C receptors), 2.0 nM [3H]5-HT binding to rat cortical homogenates is specific, saturable, and reversible. Scatchard analysis of [3H]5-HT binding, in the presence of 1 microM ( +/- )-pindolol and 100 nM mesulergine, produced a KD of 3.2 nM and Bmax of 43 fmol/mg protein. Distribution studies show this site to be present in most rat brain regions. This site is also detectable in human caudate. The pharmacological profile of this site is distinct from the previously identified 5-HT receptor subtypes. Compounds with high affinity for 5-HT 1A (8-hydroxydipropylaminotetralin), 5-HT 1B (trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine), 5-HT 1C (mesulergine), 5-HT 2 (4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyphenylisopropylamine), and 5-HT3 (ICS 205-930) receptors have low affinity for this site. These data suggest the presence of an additional, previously unidentified, 5-HT binding site in rat and human brain tissue. This putative novel 5-HT receptor has a similar pharmacology to the "5-HT 1D" site detected in bovine brain by Heuring and Peroutka.  相似文献

The binding of [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) to cerebellar membranes was examined after preincubation of [3H]5-HT in the presence or absence of ascorbate. The tissue preparation was identical in all experiments and consisted of rat cerebellar homogenates in Tris-HCl buffer with 0.1% ascorbate. Cerebellar membranes were used because of their low density of 5-HT1 binding sites. In the presence of ascorbate during a 4-h preincubation period, minimal specific binding of 2 nM [3H]5-HT is detected. Similar results are obtained with equimolar concentrations of other antioxidants (butylated hydroxytoluene, sodium dithionite, and sodium metabisulfite). Apparent specific binding increases 14-fold following a 4-h preincubation of [3H]5-HT in the absence of ascorbate. The increase in apparent specific [3H]5-HT binding is time-dependent and plateaus after 4-6 h of preincubation. When ascorbate is present during the 4-h preincubation, Scatchard analysis of [3H]5-HT binding reveals a KD value of 3.0 +/- 0.3 nM and a Bmax value of 1.9 +/- 0.2 pmol/g tissue. When ascorbate is absent during the preincubation, the KD is essentially unchanged at 3.6 +/- 0.1 nM but the Bmax is significantly increased to 36.5 +/- 7 pmol/g tissue. Drug competition studies reveal that the apparent specific "[3H]5-HT binding" in the absence of ascorbate appears to be displaced by nanomolar concentrations of hydroxylated tryptamines (5-HT, bufotenine) but not by nonhydroxylated tryptamines (5-methoxytryptamine, tryptamine). HPLC analysis demonstrates that [3H]5-HT is essentially destroyed by a 4-h incubation at 22 degrees C in the absence of ascorbate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Certain neuroleptic drugs, such as spiperone and (+) butaclamol, can discriminate between two populations of [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine ([3H]5-HT) binding sites in rat brain. The butyrophenone neuroleptic spiperone shows the greatest selectivity for these two binding sites, having at least a 3000-fold difference between its dissociation constants (2-12 nM versus 35,000 nM) for the high- and low-affinity sites, respectively. Inhibition of [3H]5-HT binding by spiperone in rat frontal cortex and corpus striatum yields distinctly biphasic inhibition curves with Hill slopes significantly less than unity. Results from nonlinear regression analysis of these inhibition studies were consistent with a two-site model in each brain region. In the frontal cortex the high-affinity neuroleptic sites comprised about 60% of the total [3/H]5-HT binding sites whereas in the corpus striatum they accounted for only 20% of the sites. Furthermore, saturation studies of [3H]5-HT binding assayed in the absence or presence of 1 μM-spiperone (a concentration that completely blocks the high-affinity site while having minimal activity at the low-affinity site) reveal a parallel shift in the Scatchard plot with no change in the dissociation constant of [3H]5-HT, but a significant decrease (64% in frontal cortex or 28% in corpus striatum) in the number of specific binding sites. These observations are consistent with the existence of at least two populations of [3H]5-HT binding sites having a differential regional distribution in rat brain.  相似文献

1-[2-(4-Aminophenyl)ethyl]-4-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (PAPP) inhibits [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) binding to 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B sites in rat brain with apparent equilibrium dissociation constants (KD) of 2.9 and 328 nM, respectively. [3H]PAPP was synthesized, its binding to central serotonin receptors was examined, and its potential usefulness as a 5-HT1A receptor radioligand was evaluated. With either 10 microM 5-HT or 1 microM 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin to define nonspecific binding, [3H]PAPP bound to a single class of sites in rat cortical membranes with a KD of 1.6 nM and a maximal binding density (Bmax) of 162 fmol/mg of protein. d-Lysergic acid diethylamide and 5-HT, two nonselective inhibitors of [3H]5-HT binding, displaced 1 nM [3H]PAPP with a potency that matched their affinity for 5-HT1 receptors. Spiperone and 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin, two compounds that discriminate [3H]5-HT binding to 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B sites, inhibited [3H]PAPP binding in accordance with their much higher affinities for the 5-HT1A receptor subtype. Furthermore, the ability of N-(m-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine and ketanserin to inhibit [3H]PAPP binding reflected their low affinities for the 5-HT1A receptor. Several nonserotonergic compounds were also found to be relatively poor displacers of [3H]PAPP binding. The regional distribution of serotonin-sensitive [3H]PAPP sites correlated with the densities of 5-HT1A receptors in the cortex, hippocampus, corpus striatum, and cerebellum of the rat. These results indicate that [3H]PAPP binds selectively and with high affinity to 5-HT1A receptor sites in rat brain.  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

Abstract: Cooperation in the action of agonists suggests that there are multiple binding sites on 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) receptors. The purpose of this study was to characterize these binding sites and their interactions on both native and cloned 5-HT3 receptors. The affinities of competitive 5-HT3 receptor antagonists were similar regardless of whether the receptors were labeled with [3H]RS-42358, [3H]granisetron, or 1-( m -[3H]chlorophenyl)biguanide ([3H]mCPG). By contrast, the affinities of the agonists 5-HT, mCPG, and phenylbiguanide were approximately 10-fold higher when the receptors were labeled with [3H]mCPG. The dissociation of [3H]mCPG, [3H]RS-42358, and [3H]RS-25259, but not [3H]granisetron, from both cloned and native 5-HT3 receptors was markedly slower in the presence of 5-HT or 2-methyl-5-HT than in the presence of antagonists such as RS-42358. This suggests that the binding of these agonists to unoccupied sites on the receptor can increase the receptor's affinity for prebound ligands and thereby slow their dissociation. These data support previous indications of positive cooperation among multiple binding sites on both native and cloned 5-HT3 receptors, and they extend this idea by demonstrating that agonists can modify the interaction of some, but not all, antagonists with the receptor.  相似文献

GABAA receptor agonists modulate [3H]diazepam binding in rat cortical membranes with different efficacies. At 23 degrees C, the relative potencies for enhancement of [3H]diazepam binding by agonists parallel their potencies in inhibiting [3H]gamma-aminobutyric acid [( 3H]GABA) binding. The agonist concentrations needed for enhancement of [3H]diazepam binding are up to 35 times higher than for [3H]GABA binding and correspond closely to the concentrations required for displacement of [3H]bicuculline methochloride (BMC) binding. The maximum enhancement of [3H]diazepam varied among agonists: muscimol = GABA greater than isoguvacine greater than 3-aminopropane sulphonic acid (3APS) = imidazoleacetic acid (IAA) greater than 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroisoxazolo (4,5,6)-pyridin-3-ol (THIP) = taurine greater than piperidine 4-sulphonic acid (P4S). At 37 degrees C, the potencies of agonists remained unchanged, but isoguvacine, 3 APS, and THIP acquired efficacies similar to GABA, whereas IAA, taurine, and P4S maintained their partial agonist profiles. At both temperatures the agonist-induced enhancement of [3H]diazepam binding was reversible by bicuculline methobromide and by the steroid GABA antagonist RU 5135. These results stress the importance of studying receptor-receptor interaction under near-physiological conditions and offer an in vitro assay that may predict the agonist status of putative GABA receptor ligands.  相似文献

Abstract: The specific binding of [3H]WAY-100635 {N-[2-[4-(2-[O-methyl-3H]methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2-pyridinyl)cyclohexane carboxamide trihydrochloride} to rat hippocampal membrane preparations was time, temperature, and tissue concentration dependent. The rates of [3H]WAY-100635 association (k+1 = 0.069 ± 0.015 nM?1 min?1) and dissociation (k?1 = 0.023 ± 0.001 min?1) followed monoexponential kinetics. Saturation binding isotherms of [3H]WAY-100635 exhibited a single class of recognition site with an affinity of 0.37 ± 0.051 nM and a maximal binding capacity (Bmax) of 312 ± 12 fmol/mg of protein. The maximal number of binding sites labelled by [3H]WAY-100635 was ~36% higher compared with that of 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-[3H]-propylamino)tetralin ([3H]8-OH-DPAT). The binding affinity of [3H]WAY-100635 was significantly lowered by the divalent cations CaCl2 (2.5-fold; p < 0.02) and MnCl2 (3.6-fold; p < 0.05), with no effect on Bmax. Guanyl nucleotides failed to influence the KD and Bmax parameters of [3H]WAY-100635 binding to 5-HT1A receptors. The pharmacological binding profile of [3H]WAY-100635 was closely correlated with that of [3H]8-OH-DPAT, which is consistent with the labelling of 5-hydroxytryptamine1A (5-HT1A) sites in rat hippocampus. [3H]WAY-100635 competition curves with 5-HT1A agonists and partial agonists were best resolved into high- and low-affinity binding components, whereas antagonists were best described by a one-site binding model. In the presence of 50 µM guanosine 5′-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPγS), competition curves for the antagonists remained unaltered, whereas the agonist and partial agonist curves were shifted to the right, reflecting an influence of G protein coupling on agonist versus antagonist binding to the 5-HT1A receptor. However, a residual (16 ± 2%) high-affinity agonist binding component was still apparent in the presence of GTPγS, indicating the existence of GTP-insensitive sites.  相似文献

Abstract: The selective serotonin (5-HT) agonist 8-hydroxydipropylaminotetralin (8-OH-DPAT) has been extensively used to characterize the physiological, biochemical, and behavioral features of the 5-HT1A receptor. A further characterization of this receptor subtype was conducted with membrane preparations from rat cerebral cortex and hippocampus. The saturation binding isotherms of [3H]8- OH-DPAT (free ligand from 200 pM to 160 nM) revealed high-affinity 5-HT1A receptors (KH= 0.7–0.8 nM) and lowaffinity (KL= 22–36 nM) binding sites. The kinetics of [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding were examined at two ligand concentrations, i.e., 1 and 10 nM, and in each case revealed two dissociation rate constants supporting the existence of high- and low-affinity binding sites. When the high-affinity sites were labeled with a 1 nM concentration of [3H]8- OH-DPAT, the competition curves of agonist and antagonist drugs were best fit to a two-site model, indicating the presence of two different 5-HT1A binding sites or, alternatively, two affinity states, tentatively designated as 5-HT1AHIGH and 5-HT1ALOW. However, the low correlation between the affinities of various drugs for these sites indicates the existence of different and independent binding sites. To determine whether 5-HT1A sites are modulated by 5′-guanylylimidodiphosphate, inhibition experiments with 5-HT were performed in the presence or in the absence of 100 μM 5′-guanylylimidodiphosphate. The binding of 1 nM [3H]8-OH-DPAT to the 5-HT1AHIGH site was dramatically (80%) reduced by 5′-guanylylimidodiphosphate; in contrast, the low-affinity site, or 5-HT1ALOW, was seemingly insensitive to the guanine nucleotide. The findings suggest that the high-affinity 5-HT1AHIGH site corresponds to the classic 5-HT1A receptor, whereas the novel 5-HT1ALOW binding site, labeled by 1 nM [3H]8-OH-DPAT and having a micromolar affinity for 5-HT, may not belong to the G protein family of receptors. To further investigate the relationship of 5-HT1A sites and the 5-HT innervation, rats were treated with p-chlorophenylalanine or with the neurotoxin p-chloroamphetamine. The inhibition of 5-HT synthesis by p-chlorophenylalanine did not alter either of the two 5-HT1A sites, but deafferentation by p-chloroamphetamine caused a loss of the low-affinity [3H]8-OH- DPAT binding sites, indicating-that these novel binding sites may be located presynaptically on 5-HT fibers and/or nerve terminals.  相似文献

Kinetic and equilibrium measurements of [3H]-serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) binding to human frontal cortex membranes have been made between 4 and 30 degrees C. The effects of spiperone and ascorbate on binding have also been determined. Under the conditions used, binding was saturable and reversible. Affinity constants derived from kinetic and equilibrium data were comparable. Serotonin binding to several sites had substantial enthalpic as well as entropic components.  相似文献

In the rat hypothalamus [3H]imipramine binding is inhibited by tricyclic and nontricyclic antidepressant drugs in a complex manner, with biphasic curves and Hill coefficients less than 1.0. 5-Hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) inhibited with high affinity a decreasing proportion of the [3H]imipramine binding sites as the [3H]imipramine concentration was raised. In the absence of sodium ions, IC50 values for the inhibition by tricyclic and nontricyclic antidepressants were increased by approximately 1,000-fold, and the inhibition curves became classically monophasic with Hill coefficients close to 1.0. These data are interpreted as suggesting that [3H]imipramine binds to two independent sites in the rat hypothalamus. One site is sodium-dependent with a high affinity for the drugs tested; the other is sodium-independent and has a low affinity for these drugs.  相似文献
