A cystamine-enkephalin dimer, containing two molecules of [D-Ala2, Leu5] enkephalin cross-linked at the COOH-terminal leucine residue with cystamine, (NH2-CH2-CH2-S-)2, has been synthesized in order to examine directly the dimerization effect of an enkephalin molecule on the opiate receptor interactions. In a comparison of potencies against [3H]-[D-Ala2,D-Leu5] enkephalin (3H-DADLE) and [3H]-[D-Ala2,MePhe4,Gly-ol5] enkephalin (3H-DAGO) as delta and mu tracers, respectively, enkephalin dimer showed a very high affinity, especially for the delta opiate receptors. Dimer was almost threefold more potent than DADLE, which is one of the most utilized delta ligand to date. When the binding affinity of cystamine-dimer was compared with that of its reduced thiol-monomer, namely [D-Ala2,Leu5,cysteamine6] enkephalin, the increment in affinity was four to fivefold for both delta and mu receptors. The results strongly indicate that the dimeric enkephalin is more potent presumably due to the simultaneous interaction with the two binding sites of the opiate receptors. 相似文献

Delta and mu opiate receptor probes: fluorescent enkephalins with high receptor affinity and specificity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The fluorescent amino acid, L-1-pyrenylalanine (Pya) was incorporated into [D-Ala2,Leu5]enkephalin and its methyl ester at position 4 or 5. Pya-enkephalins showed strong fluorescent intensity and displayed high binding affinity for opiate receptors. Pya4-enkephalins showed high specificity for the mu receptors, while Pya5-enkephalins showed high specificity and selectivity for the delta receptors. Particularly, [D-Ala2,Pya5]enkephalin was as potent as the most utilized delta-specific ligand of [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin (DADLE), and yet its delta-selectivity was about 5-times greater than that of DADLE. Thus, Pya-enkephalins per se can be utilized as a fluorescent probe or tracer for the opiate receptor-binding assays. 相似文献

A series of potential affinity label derivatives of the amphibian opioid peptide [D-Ala2]deltorphin I were prepared by incorporation at the para position of Phe3 (in the 'message' sequence) or Phe5 (in the 'address' sequence) of an electrophilic group (i.e. isothiocyanate or bromoacetamide). The introduction of the electrophile was accomplished by incorporating Fmoc-Phe(p-NHAlloc) into the peptide, followed later in the synthesis by selective deprotection of the Alloc group and modification of the resulting amine. While para substitution decreased the delta-opioid receptor affinity, selected analogs retained nanomolar affinity for delta receptors. [D-Ala2,Phe(p-NCS)3]deltorphin I exhibited moderate affinity (IC50=83 nM) and high selectivity for delta receptors, while the corresponding amine and bromoacetamide derivatives showed pronounced decreases in delta-receptor affinity (80- and >1200-fold, respectively, compared with [D-Ala2]deltorphin I). In the 'address' sequence, the Phe(p-NH2)5 derivative showed the highest delta-receptor affinity (IC50=32 nM), while the Phe(p-NHCOCH2Br)5 and Phe(p-NCS)5 peptides displayed four- and tenfold lower delta-receptor affinities, respectively. [D-Ala2,Phe(p-NCS)3]deltorphin I exhibited wash-resistant inhibition of [3H][D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin (DPDPE) binding to delta receptors at a concentration of 80 nM. [D-Ala2, Phe(p-NCS)3]deltorphin I represents the first affinity label derivative of one of the potent and selective amphibian opioid peptides, and the first electrophilic affinity label derivative of an agonist containing the reactive functionality in the 'message' sequence of the peptide. 相似文献

Skin of the frog Phyllomedusa sauvagei contains a cDNA sequence that codes for the selective mu-receptor peptide dermorphin and a new heptapeptide we have designated as dermorphin gene-associated peptide (DGAP). Investigation of the opioid receptor binding characteristics of synthetic DGAP and [D-Met2]DGAP revealed that the latter peptide had high affinity and selectivity for delta-type opioid receptors in rat brain synaptosomes. The IC50 values for DGAP on mu- and delta-receptors were only 28 microM and 670 nM, respectively, while that for [D-Met2]DGAP was 0.80 nM for delta-receptors and greater than 1 microM for mu-receptors yielding a very high delta selectivity ratio (SR) of 1345. In comparison, the SR values for [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin, [D-Ser2,Leu5,Thr6]enkephalin, and [D-Pen2,5]enkephalin, ligands which are considered to be specific for delta-receptors, were 20, 42, and 301, respectively. Dermorphin, which contains a D-Ala2 residue and is a selective mu-receptor ligand (Lazarus, L.H., Guglietta, A., Wilson, W.E., Irons, B.J., and de Castiglione, R. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 354-362), exhibits a SR of 0.0055 similar to that for the conventional mu-agonist [D-Ala2,NMePhe4,Gly-ol]enkephalin (0.0040). This finding that frog skin cDNA contains the information to code for dermorphin and DGAP, or the presumed [D-Met2]DGAP molecule, which are among the most selective high affinity opioid ligands described for mu- and delta-receptors, may permit new insight into the design of future opioid receptor agonists and antagonists. 相似文献

Fab fragments from a monoclonal antibody, OR-689.2.4, directed against the opioid receptor, selectively inhibited opioid binding to rat and guinea pig neural membranes. In a titratable manner, the Fab fragments noncompetitively inhibited the binding of the mu selective peptide [D-Ala2,(Me)Phe4,Gly(OH)5][3H] enkephalin and the delta selective peptide [D-Pen2,D-Pen5] [3H]enkephalin (where Pen represents penicillamine) to neural membranes. In contrast, kappa opioid binding, as measured by the binding of [3H]bremazocine to rat neural membranes and guinea pig cerebellum in the presence of mu and delta blockers, was not significantly altered by the Fab fragments. In addition to blocking the binding of mu and delta ligands, the Fab fragments displaced bound opioids from the membranes. When mu sites were blocked with [D-Ala2,(Me)Phe4,Gly(OH)5]enkephalin, the Fab fragments suppressed the binding of [D-Pen2,D-Pen5][3H]enkephalin to the same degree as when the mu binding site was not blocked. The Fab fragments also inhibited binding to the mu site regardless of whether or not the delta site was blocked with [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin. This monoclonal antibody is directed against a 35,000-dalton protein. Since the antibody is able to inhibit mu and delta binding but not kappa opioid binding, it appears that this 35,000-dalton protein is an integral component of mu and delta opioid receptors but not kappa receptors. 相似文献

Cross-linking of beta-125I-endorphin to NG108-15 cell membranes labeled bands with molecular masses of 55, 35, and 25 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. We applied several criteria to evaluate the relevance of these cross-linked bands to delta-opioid receptors, including selectivity, stereospecificity, affinity, G-protein coupling, down-regulation, and correlation with opioid receptor level in different well-characterized cell lines. Only the 25 kDa protein adequately fulfilled all these criteria. Thus, cross-linking to the 25-kDa band was selectively inhibited by ligands with delta-opioid affinity, but not by mu-opioid, kappa-opioid, or optically inactive opioid ligands or by non-opioid ligands. Based on inhibition of cross-linking, we calculated an affinity of [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin binding to the 25-kDa and (Kd = 6 nM) that is similar to that reported for [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin binding to NG108-15 membranes; this affinity decreased approximately 10-fold in the presence of Na+/guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate. Chronic agonist treatment of NG108-15 cells reduced cross-linking to the 25-kDa band, but not to others, in a manner parallel to down-regulation of opioid receptors. Finally, the amount of the 25-kDa band was roughly proportional to the level of opioid receptors present in N18TG2, NS20Y, ST7-3, and ST8-4 cells. The 25-kDa band was absent in PC12h, NIH3T3, and C6BU1 cells as well as in liver, all of which had no detectable opioid binding. 相似文献

The selective delta opioid agonist [D-Ala2]deltorphin-I was radioiodinated and the product purified using reverse phase HPLC. The binding characteristics and distribution profile of [125I][D-Ala2]deltorphin-I were assessed in mouse brain using homogenate binding techniques and quantitative autoradiography. [125I][D-Ala2]deltorphin-I bound with high affinity to a single class of sites (KD = 0.5 nM) in brain membrane preparations and striatal sections. Competition studies indicated that [125I][D-Ala2]deltorphin-I was selectively labeling delta opioid receptors as shown by the ratio of apparent affinities for mu and delta receptors (KI mu/KI delta = 1388). The autoradiographical distribution profile of [125I][D-Ala2]deltorphin-I binding sites was also consistent with that of other delta-selective radioligands. The data indicate that [125I][D-Ala2]deltorphin-I binds to delta opioid receptors with high affinity and selectivity. Because of its very high specific activity, it can be detected rapidly with high sensitivity by autoradiographic emulsion. 相似文献

Characterization of K Opioid Receptors in Neurosecretosomes from Bovine Posterior Pituitary 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The binding properties of opioid receptors on isolated nerve terminals (neurosecretosomes) from bovine posterior pituitaries were characterized. Both [3H]etorphine and [3H]ethylketocyclazocine ([3H]EKC) showed high-affinity binding with complex binding isotherms, consistent with the presence of multiple classes of binding sites. [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin showed no specific binding and failed to displace [3H]etorphine at high concentrations, indicating the absence of mu, delta, or benzomorphan (kappa 2) sites. Mathematical modelling of the data suggested the presence of three classes of binding sites. The first was of high affinity with Kd values of 0.9 and 2.0 nM for etorphine and EKC, respectively. The second class of sites appeared to bind etorphine with a KD of 150 nM, and EKC with extremely low affinity (unmeasurable binding). The third class of sites was characterized by KD values of 7 and 2 microM for etorphine and EKC, respectively. These results indicate that the nerve terminals of bovine posterior pituitary contain opioid binding sites of the kappa type. Furthermore, these binding sites appear heterogeneous, consisting of at least two and possibly more subtypes or states. 相似文献

The binding properties of 14 beta-(bromoacetamido)morphine (BAM) and the ability of BAM to irreversibly inhibit opioid binding to rat brain membranes were examined to characterize the affinity and selectivity of BAM as an irreversible affinity ligand for opioid receptors. BAM had the same receptor selectivity as morphine, with a 3-5-fold decrease in affinity for the different types of opioid receptors. When brain membranes were incubated with BAM, followed by extensive washing, opioid binding was restored to control levels. However, when membranes were incubated with dithiothreitol (DTT), followed by BAM, and subsequently washed, 90% of the 0.25 nM [3H] [D-Ala2,(Me)Phe4,Gly(ol)5]enkephalin (DAGO) binding was irreversibly inhibited as a result of the specific alkylation of a sulfhydryl group at the mu binding site. This inhibition was dependent on the concentrations of both DTT and BAM. The mu receptor specificity of BAM alkylation was demonstrated by the ability of BAM alkylated membranes to still bind the delta-selective peptide [3H] [D-penicillamine2,D-penicillamine5]enkephalin (DPDPE) and (-)-[3H]bremazocine in the presence of mu and delta blockers, selective for kappa binding sites. Under conditions where 90% of the 0.25 nM [3H]DAGO binding sites were blocked, 80% of the 0.8 nM [3H]naloxone binding and 50% of the 0.25 nM 125I-labeled beta h-endorphin binding were inhibited by BAM alkylation. Morphine and naloxone partially protected the binding site from alkylation with BAM, while ligands that did not bind to the mu site did not afford protection.2+hese studies have demonstrated that when a disulfide bond 相似文献

A variety of data support the existence of an opioid receptor complex composed of distinct but interacting mu cx and delta cx binding sites, where "cx" indicates "in the complex." The ability of subantinociceptive doses of [Leu5]enkephalin and [Met5]enkephalin to potentiate and attenuate morphine-induced antinociception, respectively, is thought to be mediated via their binding to the delta cx binding site. [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]Enkephalin also modulates morphine-induced antinociception, but has very low affinity for the delta cx binding site in vitro. In the present study, membranes were depleted of their delta ncx binding sites by pretreatment with the site-directed acylating agent, (3S,4S)-(+)-trans-N-[1-[2-(4-isothiocyanato)phenyl)-ethyl]-3-methy l-4- piperidyl]-N-phenylpropaneamide hydrochloride, which permits selective labeling of the delta cx binding site with [3H][D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin. The major findings of this study are that with this preparation of rat brain membranes: a) there are striking differences between the delta cx and mu binding sites; and b) both [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin and [D-Pen2,L-Pen5]enkephalin exhibit high affinity for the delta cx binding site. 相似文献

Selective binding of [3H]bremazocine and [3H]-ethylketocyclazocine to kappa-opioid receptor sites in frog (Rana esculenta) brain membranes is irreversibly inactivated by the sulfhydryl group alkylating agent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM). Pretreatment of the membranes with kappa-selective compounds [ethylketocyclazocine (EKC), dynorphin (1-13), or U-50,488H] but not with [D-Ala2,N-Me-Phe4,Gly5-ol]enkephalin (DAGO; mu specific ligand) or [D-Ala2,N-Me-Phe4,Gly5-ol]enkephalin (DADLE; delta specific ligand) strongly protects the binding of the radioligands against NEM inactivation. These results provide more evidence for the existence of kappa-opioid receptors in frog brain. The relatively high concentrations of NEM that are needed to decrease the specific binding of [3H]bremazocine together with the observation of an almost complete protection of its binding sites by NaCl suggest that bremazocine may act as an opioid antagonist in frog brain. 相似文献

Displacement from brain membranes of labeled opiates by low concentrations of enkephalins and of labeled enkephalins by low concentrations of opiates has been previously explained by the existence of a common high affinity site termed mu-1. An alternative interpretation of the same results is that the trough seen in the low concentration zone of the displacement curves represents cross binding of mu and delta opioid ligands to delta and mu receptors, respectively. In three sets of experiments with brain membranes, the size of the trough is shown to be dependent on the labeled ligand used: The ratio between the size of troughs seen with [3H]D-Ala, D-Leu enkephalin and with [3H]morphine varies with experimental conditions (storage of membranes at 4 degrees C for 72 h), with ratio of mu:delta receptors (e.g. in thalamus and cortex which are enriched in mu and delta sites, respectively) and with pretreatment of membranes with naloxonazine. These results can not be explained by a common high affinity site, but rather by binding of [3H]D-Ala, D-Leu enkephalin to mu and of [3H]morphine to delta opioid receptors. 相似文献

Binding activity of the enkephalin dimer [D-Ala2, Leu5-NH-CH2-]2 (DPE2) to NG108-15 hybrid cells was compared to that of the monomer [D-Ala2, Leu5]enkephalin amide (DALEA). At 25 degrees C, the values of the apparent affinity constant for DPE2, measured to intact and lysed cells and membranes, was 5.0 (+/- 0.09) X 10(9) M-1 for n = 28 experiments, as compared to 0.9 (+/- 0.08) X 10(9) M-1 (n = 16) for DALEA. At 4 degrees C, the binding affinity of DPE2 decreased by 43% and that of DALEA by 33%. An important difference between the binding of DPE2 and DALEA was that, after necessary corrections for difference in maximal "bindability" of the respective tritiated enkephalins, the molar binding capacity for DALEA was twofold higher than for DPE2, although mutual cross-displacement studies indicated that binding occurred to one class of noninteracting homogeneous receptors. The binding capacity for intact and lysed cells and membranes was 20 (+/- 2) X 10(-11) M for DPE2 and 43 (+/- 2) X 10(-11) M for DALEA. The enkephalin monomers [D-Ala2, D-Leu5]enkephalin (DADLE) and [D-Ala2, Met5]enkephalin amide (DAMEA) showed binding characteristics similar to those of DALEA. 相似文献

Affinity labeling of delta-opiate receptors using [D-Ala2,Leu5,Cys6]enkephalin. Covalent attachment via thiol-disulfide exchange 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

[D-Ala2,Leu5,Cys6]Enkephalin (DALCE) is a synthetic enkephalin analog which contains a sulfhydryl group. DALCE binds with high affinity to delta-receptors, with moderate affinity to mu-receptors, and with negligible affinity to kappa-receptors. Pretreatment of rat brain membranes with DALCE resulted in concentration-dependent loss of delta-binding sites. Using 2 nM [3H][D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin (where Pen represents penicillamine) to label delta-sites, 50% loss of sites occurred at about 3 microM DALCE. Loss of sites was not reversed by subsequent incubation in buffer containing 250 mM NaCl and 100 microM guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p), conditions which cause dissociation of opiate agonists. By contrast, the enkephalin analogs [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin, [D-Ser2,Leu5,Thr6]enkephalin, [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin, and [D-Ala2,D-Leu5,Lys6]enkephalin were readily dissociated by NaCl and Gpp(NH)p, producing negligible loss at 3 microM. This suggests that DALCE binds covalently to the receptors. Pretreatment of membranes with the reducing agents dithiothreitol and beta-mercaptoethanol had no effect on opiate binding. Thus, loss of sites required both specific recognition by opiate receptors and a thiol group. The irreversible effect of DALCE was completely selective for delta-receptors. Pretreatment with DALCE had no effect on binding of ligands to mu- or kappa-receptors. The effect of DALCE on delta-binding was: 1) markedly attenuated by inclusion of dithiothreitol in the preincubation buffer, 2) partially reversed by subsequent incubation with dithiothreitol, 3) slightly enhanced when converted to the disulfide-linked dimer, and 4) prevented by blocking the DALCE sulfhydryl group with N-ethylmaleimide or iodoacetamide. These results indicate that DALCE binds covalently to delta-receptors by forming a disulfide bond with a sulfhydryl group in the binding site. The mechanism may involve a thiol-disulfide exchange reaction. 相似文献

125I[D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin with high specific activity (122-185 Ci/mmol) was prepared and purified by Sep-Pak C18 reverse phase cartridge followed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). HPLC at pH 3.0 resolved 125I[D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin into two fractions, which ran as a single spot in thin-layer chromatography with the same Rf values. Alkaline hydrolysates of the HPLC-purified fractions showed a single spot corresponding to monoiodotyrosine standard when analysed by thin-layer chromatography. Binding kinetics of the tracer was found to approach equilibrium after 30 min at 24 degrees. Scatchard analysis of the saturation equilibrium binding studies gave an equilibrium dissociation constant of 3.58 nM and the number of binding site of 30 fmol/mg protein. Enkephalin analogs were capable of displacing 125I[D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin binding from the rat brain plasma membrane. The effective concentration of [D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin and [D-Ala2, Leu5] enkephalin for 50% inhibition of 125I[D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin binding was estimated to be 79 nM and 23 nM, respectively. Both substance P and gastrin tetrapeptide failed to displace the 125I[D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin binding to any significant extent. The 125I[D-Ala2, Met5] enkephalin prepared by the present procedure is therefore a useful tracer. This method of preparing radioiodinated peptide may be applicable to other enkephalin analogs or neuropeptides in general. 相似文献

The influence of Ca2+, Mg2+, Mn2+, Sr2+, La3+, Nd3+, Sm3+, Eu3+, and Gd3+ ions on the binding of labeled, stable enkephalin analogue, [3H-Tyr1, D-Ala2, D-Leu5]enkephalin, to opiate receptors of the rat brain membrane preparations has been investigated. The formation of the complex can be described by a scheme involving at least two independent binding sites. The high affinity site does not discriminate the divalent and trivalent metal ions: all examined cations enhanced the enkephalin affinity for this site. The ligand binding to the low affinity site is potentiated only by Mn2+, Mg2+, and lathanoides. The maximal concentration of the binding sites of the above two types is not affected by the cations. The increase in the ionic strength of the solution entails a decrease in the affinity of the ligand for the high affinity binding site. It is shown that the effect of both di- and trivalent metal cations on the [3H-Tyr1, D-Ala2, D-Leu3] enkephalin binding is mediated through one cation attachment site on the respective enkephalin receptor. 相似文献

Analogs of opioid pentapeptide [D-Ala2,Leu5]enkephalin were prepared using two kinds of N-methylation reactions, namely quaternization and amide-methylation. Quaternization reaction with CH3I-KHCO3 in methanol was applied to the deprotected N-terminal group of the pentapeptide derivatives affording trimethylammonium group-containing analogs. [Me3+Tyr1,D-Ala2,Leu5]enkephalin and its amide were found to show opioid activity on guinea pig ileium assay only slightly lower than the parent unmethylated peptides. Application of amide-methylation reaction using CH3I-Ag2O in DMF to the protected pentapeptide yielded a pentamethyl derivative in which all of the five N atoms were methylated. Deprotection of the derivative gave pentamethyl analogs of [D-Ala2,Leu5]enkephalin, which showed no significant activity on the guinea pig ileum assay and opiate-receptor binding assay. 相似文献

1. Meptazinol is an interesting opioid-producing naloxone-reversible analgesia with few cardiovascular and respiratory effects. Recent studies indicate that mu 1 opioid receptors mediate meptazinol analgesia. Using a computerized autoradiographic subtraction technique, we have examined the regional distribution of meptazinol-sensitive [3H][D-Ala2,MePhe4,Gly(ol)5]enkephalin (DAGO) binding and compared this with the distribution of mu 1 binding determined by competition with low [D-Ala2,D-Leu5]enkephalin (DADL) concentrations. 2. Meptazinol and DADL lowered [3H]DAGO to similar extents in most brain regions studied. The greatest levels of inhibition were observed in the periaqueductal gray, interpeduncular nucleus, thalamus, hypothalamus, and hippocampus. Low levels of inhibition were found in the temporal and frontal cortex. The correlation between the inhibition of [3H]DAGO binding by meptazinol and that by DADL was high (r = 0.83), consistent with the binding of meptazinol to mu 1 sites. 相似文献

The opioid receptor preference for dermorphin and several dimerized structural analogues was investigated using rat brain synaptosomes and correlated with the potencies of intracerebroventricularly administered dimeric dermorphin peptides to inhibit gastric acid secretion. The carboxyl terminus of dermorphin or amino-terminal dermorphin analogues was bridged by dihydrazide or (poly)ethylenediamine structures. Synaptosomal membranes were prepared for radioligand binding assay in the presence of soybean trypsin inhibitor and preincubated to remove endogenously bound opioid peptides before storage at -70 degrees C. Specific radiolabeled agonists used in the radioligand binding assays were [D-Ala2,N-methyl-Phe4,Gly-ol5] [3H] enkephalin for mu-receptors and [D-Ala2,D-Leu5] [3H]enkephalin for delta-receptors. delta-Receptor binding assays were conducted in the presence of 2.6 microM [N-Me-Phe3,D-Pro4]morphiceptin to suppress peptide binding to mu-receptors. [D-Ala2,N-methyl-Phe4,Gly-ol5]enkephalin and dermorphin had affinities of 1.39 and 1.22 nM for mu-receptors and 355.8 and 178.6 nM for delta-receptors, respectively. Affinities of dimeric-dermorphin0 for mu- and delta-receptors, and the mu-selectivity ratio, exceeded values characteristic of dermorphin. The dimerized amino-terminal dermorphin analogues are peptides whose receptor binding differed from the parent molecule; e.g. the affinity of dimeric tetrapeptides toward mu-receptors was reduced but was increased for delta-receptors relative to monomeric dermorphin-(1-4)-amide. Dimeric tetradermorphin linked by a bridge containing 12 methylene units (di-tetra-dermorphin12), exhibited a dramatic loss in the mu-selectivity ratio as a result of diminished mu-affinity. On the other hand, substitution of Gly4 by Sar in di-tetra-dermorphin2 enhanced binding to mu-receptors: substitution of D-Arg2 for D-Ala resulted in an increased binding to mu-receptors while decreasing binding to delta-receptors, yielding a peptide with the highest mu-selectivity ratio. These substitutions of D-Arg2 and Sar4 in dimeric amino-terminal dermorphin pentapeptides enhanced binding to both mu- and delta-receptors relative to dermorphin-(1-5)-amide, but led to a decrease in its mu-selectivity ratio. Several dimeric dermorphin analogues exhibited an enhanced mu-selectivity ratio relative to their monomeric analogues. Dimeric peptides, which had a relatively high affinity for mu-receptors, were effective in the suppression of gastric acid secretion. 相似文献

Opioid receptors in rat cardiac sarcolemma: effect of phenylephrine and isoproterenol 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

The present study demonstrates the presence of opioid receptors in the rat cardiac sarcolemma isolated by the hypotonic LiBr-shock procedure. Opioid binding was measured by using [3H]U69 593, [3H](2-D-penicillamine,5-D-penicillamine)enkephalin ([3H]DPDPE) or [3H][D-Ala2,MePhe4,Gly-(ol)5]enkephalin ([3H]DAGO) as selective radioligands for K, delta and mu opioid receptors, respectively. Both the K- and delta-selective ligands exhibited highly specific (75-86%) binding, saturable at a concentration of about 20 nM. No specific binding for the selective agonist DAGO was observed. A marked increase in both [3H]U69 593 and [3H]DPDPE binding was observed after incubation of the sarcolemma with the alpha-adrenoceptor agonist phenylephrine or with the beta-adrenoceptor agonist isoproterenol. These stimulatory effects were associated with an increase in the Bmax values, a decrease in the Kd values, and were completely antagonized by the respective antagonists phentolamine and propranolol. 相似文献
