We have documented a single, specific binding site for [3H]pyrilamine on normal human T helper, T suppressor, B cells, and monocytes. The binding of the radioligand to its receptor is reversible with cold H1 antagonist, saturates at 40 to 60 nM, and binding equilibrium is achieved in 2 to 4 min. Using a computer program (Ligand), we calculated the dissociation constants, binding capacities, and numbers of receptors per cell for each of the different cell types. Monocytes were found to have the highest affinity (mean KD +/- SD; 3.8 +/- 4.8 nM) for [3H]pyrilamine, followed by T helper cells (KD = 5.0 +/- 6.6 nM), B cells (KD = 14.2 +/- 2.0 nM), and T suppressor cells (KD = 44.6 +/- 49.4 nM). T suppressor cells were found to express the higher number of H1 receptors per cell (35,697 +/- 15,468), followed by B cells (10,732 +/- 9060), T helper cells (6838 +/- 8167), and monocytes (5589 +/- 2266). The kinetics of binding for this radioligand was carried out in resting and mitogen-stimulated T cells over a 48-hr period. We found that the binding affinity for [3H]pyrilamine increased over the 48-hr period, whereas the number of receptors per T cell was essentially unchanged. In contrast, T cells stimulated with Con A or PHA were shown to have a greater than fourfold increase in the number of receptors per cell, whereas the binding affinity for [3H]pyrilamine decreased over the 48-hr period. Preincubation of T cells with unlabeled histamine before carrying out the radioligand binding assay resulted in a decrease in the binding affinity of the receptors to [3H]pyrilamine, but the number of receptors per cell did not change significantly. Although the function of H1 receptors on T cells, B cells, and monocytes has not been completely defined, this receptor has the potential of playing an important role in modulating the immune response.  相似文献

Expression of ligand binding properties for an atypical beta-adrenergic receptor (beta-AR) subtype was studied during the adipose differentiation of murine 3T3-F442A cells and compared with that of the human beta 3-AR expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells stably transfected with the human beta 3-AR gene (CHO-beta 3 cells) Emorine, L. J., Marullo, S., Briend-Sutren, M. M., Patey, G., Tate, K., Delavier-Klutchko, C., and Strosberg, A. D. (1989) Science 245, 1118-1121). 3T3-F442A adipocytes exhibited high and low affinity binding sites for (-)-4-(3-t-butylamino-2-hydroxypropoxy) [5,7-3H]benzimidazole-2-one ((-)-[3H]CGP-12177) (KD = 1.2 and 38.3 nM) and (-)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol ([125I]CYP) (KD = 47 and 1,510 pM). The high affinity sites corresponded to the classical beta 1- and beta 2-AR subtypes whereas the KD values of the low affinity sites for the radioligands were similar to those measured in CHO-beta 3 cells (KD = 28 nM and 1,890 pM for (-)-[3H]CGP12177 and [125I]CYP, respectively). These low affinity sites were undetectable in preadipocytes but represented about 90% of total beta-ARs in adipocytes. The atypical beta-AR and the human beta 3-AR add similarly low affinities (Ki = 3-5 microM) for (+/-)-(2-(3-carbamoyl-4-hydroxyphenoxy)ethylamino-3)-(4-(1-methyl- 4- trifluormethyl-2-imidazolyl)-phenoxy)-2-propanol methane sulfonate (CGP20712A) or erythro-(+/-)-1-(7-methylindan-4-yloxy)-3-isopropylaminob utan-2-ol (ICI118551), highly selective beta 1- and beta 2-AR antagonists, respectively, in agreement with the poor inhibitory effect of the compounds on (-)-isoproterenol (IPR)-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity. Atypical beta-AR and beta 3-AR had an affinity about 10-50 times higher for sodium-4-(2-[2-hydroxy-2-(3-chlorophenyl)ethylamino]propyl)phenoxyace tate sesquihydrate (BRL37344) than the beta 1-AR subtype. This correlates with the potent lipolytic effect of BRL37344 in adipocytes. The rank order of potency of agonists in functional and binding studies was BRL37344 greater than IPR less than (-)-norepinephrine greater than (-)-epinephrine both in 3T3 adipocytes and CHO-beta 3 cells. As in CHO-beta 3 cells, the classical beta 1- and beta 2-antagonists CGP12177, oxprenolol, and pindolol were partial agonists in adipocytes. Although undetectable in preadipocytes, a major mRNA species of 2.3 kilobases (kb) and a minor one of 2.8 kb were observed in adipocytes by hybridization to a human beta 3-AR specific probe.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) displays a sixfold higher affinity for 5-HT2 binding sites labeled by [3H]ketanserin in rat (IC50 = 200 +/- 40 nM) and human (IC50 = 190 +/- 50 nM) cortex than for 5-HT2 sites in bovine cortex (IC50 = 1,200 +/- 130 nM). The Hill slopes of the 5-HT competition curves are 0.67 +/- 0.04 in rat, 0.69 +/- 0.08 in human, and 0.96 +/- 0.02 in bovine cortex. Scatchard analysis of (+/-)-[3H]4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxyamphetamine ([3H]DOB) binding in the rat indicates a population of binding sites with a KD of 0.38 +/- 0.04 nM and a Bmax of 1.5 +/- 0.05 pmol/g tissue. In contrast, specific [3H]DOB binding cannot be detected in bovine cortical membranes. These data indicate that species variations exist in 5-HT2 binding site subtypes and that [3H]ketanserin appears to label a homogeneous population of 5-HT2 binding site subtypes in bovine cortex.  相似文献

Bovine adrenal medulla plasma membranes were purified by a differential centrifugation procedure using sucrose and Urografin discontinuous density gradients; the membranes were enriched 10-12-fold in acetylcholinesterase activity and [3H]ouabain binding sites. Specific (+)-[3H]PN200-110 binding to these membranes amounted to 90% of total binding and was saturable and of high affinity (KD = 41 pM; Bmax = 119 fmol/mg of protein) with a Hill coefficient close to 1, a result suggesting the presence of a single, homogeneous population of dihydropyridine receptors. The association and dissociation rate constants were, respectively, 7.5 X 108 M-1 min-1 and 0.023 min-1. Unlabeled (+)-PN200-110 displaced (+)-[3H]PN200-110 binding with a potency 100-fold higher than (-)-PN200-110 (IC50,0.5 and 45nM, respectively). Although the two enantiomers of BAY K 8644 completely displaced (+)-[3H]PN200-110 binding, they exhibited no stereoselectivity (IC50, 69 and 83 nM,respectively). Whereas ( +/- )-nitrendipine very potently displaced (+)-[3H]PN200-110 binding (IC50 = 1.3 nM) verapamil and cinnarizine displaced the binding by only 30 and 40% at 1 microM, and diltiazem increased it by 20% at 10 microM. [3H]Ouabain bound to plasma membranes with a KD of 34 nM and a Bmax of 9.75 pmol/mg of protein, a figure 80-fold higher than the Bmax for (+)-PN200-110. [3H]Ouabain also bound to intact chromaffin cells with a Bmax of 244 fmol/10(6) cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The effect of PGE2 and PGD2 on several lymphocyte functions in vitro was evaluated in nonatopic and atopic subjects. Both PGE2 and PGD2 inhibited phytohemagglutinin-induced protein synthesis ([3H] leucine uptake) by nonatopic mononuclear cells and T cells in a dose-dependent manner (10(-6) to 10(-12) M). Protein synthesis by atopic mononuclear cells was not significantly suppressed by the above concentration of PGE2. Although PGD2 effectively suppressed protein synthesis by atopic mononuclear cells and T cells at 10(-6) M, lower concentrations were ineffective. Kinetic studies revealed significant differences in the suppressive effects of PGE2 and PGD2 on atopic and nonatopic mononuclear cells at 24 and 48 h, but not at 72 or 96 hr. Protein synthesis by T helper-enriched populations (suppressor cell depletion by anti-Leu-2b + complement) obtained from nonatopics was significantly reduced by PGE2 and PGD2, suggesting that these mediators may be directly inhibiting the responding population. By contrast, protein synthesis by T suppressor-enriched populations (helper cell depletion by OKT4 + complement) obtained from nonatopics was enhanced by PGE2 and PGD2, suggesting that the PG were activating these cells. Atopic T helper and T suppressor cells exhibited decreased responsiveness to PGE2 and PGD2 compared with nonatopic cells. PGE2 and PGD2 inhibited the phytohemagglutinin-stimulated proliferative response ([3H]thymidine uptake) by both atopic and nonatopic mononuclear cells in a dose-dependent manner and to the same extent. However, although PGE2 and PGD2 generated functional suppressor activity (when using a coculture technique) in nonatopic mononuclear cells, these mediators failed to activate atopic suppressor cells. These results suggest that reduced responses by atopic T cells to signals provided by PGE2 and PGD2 are not solely restricted to suppressor cell function, and could indicate an impaired ability to regulate immune and/or inflammatory reactions.  相似文献

Specific receptors for [3H]-15 HETE have been identified on GH3 cells, a cloned strain of rat pituitary cells. With incremental inputs of radioligand and a constant cell number, specific [3H]-15 HETE binding reached a plateau indicative of saturable binding sites. Ligand analysis of the Scatchard plot demonstrated a single class of high affinity binding sites with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.75 nM. 12 HETE competed with radiolabeled 15 HETE (IC50 = 1 x 10(-6) +/- 0.8 M). In contrast, arachidonic acid, leukotriene B4, prostaglandins E2 and F2 alpha did not compete with [3H]-15 HETE.  相似文献

In previous studies we have identified and isolated a prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) receptor from cardiac sarcolemmal (SL) membranes. Binding of PGE2 to this receptor in permeabilized SL vesicles inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity. The purpose of this study was to determine if the cardiac PGE2 receptor is coupled to adenylyl cyclase via a pertussis toxin sensitive guanine nucleotide binding inhibitory (Gi) protein. Incubation of permeabilized SL vesicles in the presence of 100 microM 5'-guanylamidiophosphate, Gpp(NH)p, a nonhydrolyzable analogue of GTP, resulted in a shift in [3H]PGE2 binding from two sites, one of high affinity (KD = 0.018 +/- 0.003 nM) comprising 7.7% of the total available binding sites and one of lower affinity (KD = 1.9 +/- 0.7 nM) to one site of intermediate affinity (KD = 0.52 +/- 0.01 nM) without a significant change in the total number of PGE2 binding sites. A shift from two binding sites to one binding site in the presence of Gpp(NH)p was also observed for [3H]dihydroalprenolol binding to permeabilized cardiac SL. When permeabilized SL vesicles were pretreated with activated pertussis toxin, ADP-ribosylation of a 40- to 41-kDa protein corresponding to Gi was observed. ADP-ribosylation of SL resulted in a shift in [3H]PGE2 binding to one site of intermediate affinity without significantly changing the number of binding sites. In alamethicin permeabilized SL vesicles, 1 nM PGE2 significantly decreased (30%) adenylyl cyclase activity. Pretreatment with activated pertussis toxin overcame the inhibitory effects of PGE2. These results demonstrate that the cardiac PGE2 receptor is coupled to adenylyl cyclase via a pertussis toxin sensitive Gi protein.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

At different concentrations, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) can either stimulate or inhibit cAMP formation in freshly isolated rabbit cortical collecting tubule (RCCT) cells, but in cultured RCCT cells PGE2 can only stimulate cAMP synthesis (Sonnenburg, W. K., and Smith W. L. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 6155-6160). Here, we report characteristics of [3H]PGE2 binding to membrane receptor preparations from both freshly isolated and cultured RCCT cells. [3H]PGE2 binding to membranes from freshly isolated RCCT cells was saturable and partially reversible. Equilibrium binding analyses indicated that in the absence of guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S) there is a single class of PGE2 binding sites (KD = 4.2 +/- 0.4 nM; Bmax = 583 +/- 28 fmol/mg); in the presence of 100 microM GTP gamma S, there is also only one class of binding sites but with a somewhat lower KD = 1.2 +/- 0.5 nM (Bmax = 370 +/- 40 fmol/mg). This stimulatory effect of GTP gamma S was blocked by pretreatment of the freshly isolated RCCT cells with pertussis toxin. The relative affinities of prostanoids for the [3H]PGE2-binding site were determined to be 17,18,19,20-tetranor-16-phenoxy-PGE2-methylsulfonylamide (sulprostone) approximately PGE2 approximately PGE1 approximately 16,16-dimethyl-PGE2 greater than carbacyclin approximately PGF2 alpha greater than PGD2. This is the order of potency with which prostaglandins inhibit arginine vasopressin-induced cAMP formation in fresh RCCT cells. Interestingly, [3H]PGE2 binding to membranes from cultured cells, which, unlike fresh cells, fail to show an inhibitory response to PGE2, was only 10-20% of that observed with membranes from fresh cells; moreover, binding of [3H]PGE2 to membranes from cultured cells was neither stimulated by GTP gamma S nor inhibited by sulprostone. The prostanoid binding specificities and the unusual pertussis toxin-sensitive, stimulatory effect of GTP gamma S on binding of [3H]PGE2 to membranes from freshly isolated RCCT cells are characteristics shared by a Gi-linked PGE receptor from renal medulla (Watanabe, T., Umegaki, K., and Smith, W. L. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 14340-14349). Our results suggest that the [3H]PGE2 binding site of freshly isolated RCCT cells is the PGE receptor which is coupled to a Gi to attenuate arginine vasopressin-induced cAMP synthesis in the renal collecting tubule.  相似文献

The binding of the competitive antagonist alpha-bungarotoxin (alpha-Btx) and the noncompetitive inhibitor phencyclidine (PCP) to a synthetic peptide comprising residues 172-227 of the alpha-subunit of the Torpedo acetylcholine receptor has been characterized. 125I-alpha-Btx bound to the 172-227 peptide in a solid-phase assay and was competed by alpha-Btx (IC50 = 5.0 x 10(-8) M), d-tubocurarine (IC50 = 5.9 X 10(-5)M), and NaCl (IC50 = 7.9 x 10(-2)M). In the presence of 0.02% sodium dodecyl sulfate, 125I-alpha-Btx bound to the 56-residue peptide with a KD of 3.5 nM, as determined by equilibrium saturation binding studies. Because alpha-Btx binds to a peptide comprising residues 173-204 with the same affinity and does not bind to a peptide comprising residues 205-227, the competitive antagonist and hence agonist binding site lies between residues 173 and 204. After photoaffinity labeling, [3H]PCP was bound to the 172-227 peptide. [3H]PCP binding was inhibited by chlorpromazine (IC50 = 6.3 x 10(-5)M), tetracaine (IC50 = 4.2 x 10(-6)M), and dibucaine (IC50 = 2.7 x 10(-4)M). Equilibrium saturation binding studies in the presence of 0.02% sodium dodecyl sulfate showed that [3H]PCP bound at two sites, a major site of high affinity with an apparent KD of 0.4 microM and a minor low-affinity site with an apparent KD of 4.6 microM. High -affinity binding occurred at a single site on peptide 205-227 (KD = 0.27 microM) and was competed by chlorpromazine but not by alpha-Btx.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The arylazide 1,4-dihydropyridine (-)-[3H]azidopine binds to a saturable population of sites in guinea-pig heart membranes with a dissociation constant (KD) of 30 +/- 7 pM and a density (Bmax.) of 670 +/- 97 fmol/mg of protein. This high-affinity binding site is assumed to reside on voltage-operated calcium channels because reversible binding is blocked stereoselectively by 1,4-dihydropyridine channel blockers and by the enantiomers of Bay K 8644. A low-affinity (KD 25 +/- 7 nM) high-capacity (Bmax. 21.6 +/- 9 pmol/mg of protein) site does not bind (-)- or (+)-Bay K 8644, but is blocked by high concentrations (greater than 500 nM) of dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-4-(2-isothiocyanatophenyl)-3,5-pyridinedicarboxy lic acid dimethyl ester (1,4-DHP-isothiocyanate) or, e.g., (+/-)-nicardipine. (-)-[3H]Azidopine was photoincorporated covalently into bands of 165 +/- 8, 39 +/- 2 and 35 +/- 3 kDa, as determined by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Labelling of the 165 kDa band is protected stereoselectively by 1,4-dihydropyridine enantiomers at low (nM) concentrations and by (-)- and (+)-Bay K 8644, whereas the lower-Mr bands are not. Thus, only the 165 kDa band is the calcium-channel-linked 1,4-dihydropyridine receptor. Photolabelling of the 39 or 35 kDa bands was only blocked by 10 microM-1,4-DHP-isothiocyanate or 50 microM-(+/-)-nicardipine but not by 10 microM-(-)-Bay K 8644. [3H]-1,4-DHP-isothiocyanate binds to guinea-pig heart membranes with a KD of 0.35 nM and dissociates with a k-1 of 0.2 min-1 at 30 degrees C. [3H]-1,4 DHP-isothiocyanate irreversibly labels bands of 39 and 35 kDa which are protected by greater than 10 microM-(+/-)-nicardipine or unlabelled ligand but not by 10 microM-(-)-Bay K 8644. Thus, [3H]-1,4-DHP-isothiocyanate is not an affinity probe for the calcium channel.  相似文献

The full agonist [3H]UK 14304 [5-bromo-6-(2-imidazolin-2-yl-amino)-quinoxaline] was used to characterize alpha 2-adrenoceptors in postmortem human brain. The binding at 25 degrees C was rapid (t1/2, 4.6 min) and reversible (t1/2, 14.1 min), and the KD determined from the kinetic studies was 0.48 nM. In frontal cortex, the rank order of potency of adrenergic drugs competing with [3H]UK 14304 or [3H]clonidine showed the specificity for an alpha 2A-adrenoceptor: UK 14304 approximately equal to yohimbine approximately equal to oxymetazoline approximately equal to clonidine greater than phentolamine approximately equal to (-)-adrenaline greater than idazoxan approximately equal to (-)-noradrenaline greater than phenylephrine greater than (+/-)-adrenaline much greater than corynanthine greater than prazosin much greater than (+/-)-propranolol. GTP induced a threefold decrease in the affinity of [3H]UK 14304, with no alteration in the maximum number of binding sites, suggesting that the radioligand labelled the high-affinity state of the alpha 2-adrenoceptor. In the frontal cortex, analyses of saturation curves indicated the existence of a single population of noninteracting sites for [3H]UK 14304 (KD = 0.35 +/- 0.13 nM; Bmax = 74 +/- 9 fmol/mg of protein). In other brain regions (hypothalamus, hippocampus, cerebellum, brainstem, caudate nucleus, and amygdala) the Bmax ranged from 68 +/- 7 to 28 +/- 4 fmol/mg of protein. No significant changes in the KD values were found in the different regions examined. The binding of [3H]UK 14304 was not affected by age, sex or postmortem delay.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The possible role of immunomodulatory peptide somatostatin (SRIF) in measles virus (MV)-induced immunopathology was addressed by analysis of SRIF receptors and their coupling to adenylyl cyclase in mitogen-stimulated Jurkat T cells and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). SRIF-specific receptors were assayed in semipurified membrane preparations by using SRIF14 containing iodinated tyrosine at the first position in the amino acid chain ([125I]Tyr1) as a radioligand. A determination of receptor number by saturation of radioligand binding at equilibrium showed that in Jurkat cells, MV infection led to a dramatic decrease in the total receptor number. The virus-associated disappearance of one (Ki2 = 12 +/- 4 nM [mean +/- standard error of the mean [SEM]]; n = 4) of two somatostatin binding sites identified in control Jurkat cells (Ki1 = 78 +/- 3 pM and Ki2 = 12 +/- 4 nM [mean +/- SEM]; n = 4) was also observed. Almost identical results were obtained for phytohemagglutinin-activated human PBMC. In the absence of MV infection, two somatostatin binding sites were present (Ki1 = 111 +/- 31 pM and Ki2 = 17 +/- 2 nM [mean +/- SEM]; n = 2), whereas in MV-infected cells, only the high-affinity (Ki1 = 48 +/- 15 pM [mean +/- SEM]; n = 2) binding site remained. In addition, MV infection reinforced the inhibitory effects of SRIF on adenylyl cyclase activity, since maximal inhibition at 1 microM peptide was 11% +/- 4% in control cells versus 25% +/- 3% (P < 0.05) in infected Jurkat cells. Moreover, MV infection severely impaired the capacity of adenylyl cyclase to be activated directly (by forskolin) or indirectly (via Gs protein-coupled vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor). An assessment of [methyl-3H]thymidine incorporation showed that SRIF increased proliferative responses to mitogens only in control cells, not in MV-infected cells. Altogether, our data emphasize that MV-associated alteration of SRIF transduction appears to be related to the loss of SRIF-dependent increase of mitogen-induced proliferation.  相似文献

Properties of prostaglandin (PG) E2 binding sites of a murine macrophage cell line (P388D1) were investigated. The specific binding of [3H]-PGE2 to intact P388D1 cells at 4 degrees C in the presence of cytochalasin D (10 micrograms/ml) approached saturation at concentration greater than 7.5 X 10(-9) M, and could be displaced most effectively by unlabeled PGE2 and less effectively by unlabeled PGI2. The Scatchard analysis of the binding data clearly indicated the heterogeneity with respect to the PGE2 binding affinity and showed the presence of about 3.9 fmol/10(8) cells of the high affinity sites (KD = 1.1 X 10(-9) M) and about 24 fmol/10(8) cells of the low affinity sites (KD = 2 X 10(-8) M). PGE2-binding proteins were isolated from the detergent lysate of the radiolabeled P388D1 cells by affinity chromatography on Sepharose 4B coupled to PGE2. The affinity-isolated materials were further purified by successive use of Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and isoelectric focusing in the presence of dithiothreitol (1 mM) and Triton X-100 (0.5%). The final step yielded about 0.25% of the original radioactivity, which sharply focused as a single peak at pH near 6.5. The electrofocused PGE2-binding proteins migrated as a single band with a m.w. of 95,000 during SDS-PAGE. The electrofocused PGE2-binding proteins bound specifically to [3H]-PGE2 but showed again the heterogeneity with respect to their affinity.  相似文献

Epidepride, (S)-N-[(1-ethyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)methyl]-5-iodo-2,3-dimethoxybenzamide+ ++, the iodine analogue of isoremoxipride (FLB 457), was found to be a very potent dopamine D2 receptor antagonist. Optimal in vitro binding required incubation at 25 degrees C for 4 h at pH 7.4 in a buffer containing 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2 and 1 mM MgCl2. Scatchard analysis of in vitro binding to striatal, medial frontal cortical, hippocampal and cerebellar membranes revealed a KD of 24 pM in all regions, with Bmax's of 36.7, 1.04, 0.85, and 0.37 pmol/g tissue, respectively. The Hill coefficients ranged from 0.91-1.00 in all four regions. The IC50's for inhibition of [125I]epidepride binding to striatal, medial frontal cortical, and hippocampal membranes for SCH 23390, SKF 83566, serotonin, ketanserin, mianserin, naloxone, QNB, prasozin, clonidine, alprenolol, and norepinephrine ranged from 1 microM to greater than 10 microM. Partial displacement of [125I]epidepride by nanomolar concentrations of clonidine was noted in the frontal cortex and hippocampus, but not in the striatum. Scatchard analysis of epidepride binding to alpha 2 noradrenergic receptors in the frontal cortex and hippocampus revealed an apparent KD of 9 nM. At an epidepride concentration equal to the KD for the D2 receptor, i.e. 25 pM, no striatal alpha 2 binding was seen and only 7% of the specific epidepride binding in the cortex or hippocampus was due to binding at the alpha 2 site. Correlation of inhibition of [3H]spiperone and [125I]epidepride binding to striatal membranes by a variety of D2 ligands revealed a correlation coefficient of 0.99, indicating that epidepride labels a D2 site. In vitro autoradiography revealed high densities of receptor binding in layers V and VI of prefrontal and cingulate cortices as well as in striatum. In vivo rat brain uptake revealed a hippocampal:cerebellar and frontal cortical:cerebellar ratio of 2.2:1 which fell to 1.1:1 following haloperidol pretreatment. These properties suggest that [125I]epidepride is a superior radioligand for the in vitro and in vivo study of striatal and extrastriatal dopamine D2 receptors.  相似文献

A new technique is outlined for the characterization and quantification of M2 muscarinic binding sites (receptors) in micropunches (1 mm diam.), cut from slices (350 microns), of fresh cardiac tissue using the hydrophilic antagonist [3H]N-methyl scopolamine. The use of this water-soluble ligand allows us to label, and quantify, M2 receptors on the cell surface of intact cells contained within the micropunch. We believe that cardiac micropunches offer a simple but powerful approach to the investigation of membrane receptor regulation in tissue that largely retains the in vivo cytoarchitecture. Specific binding is reversible, stereospecific, saturable, of high affinity, and has the drug specificity typical of an M2 muscarinic receptor. In rat left ventricle, Bmax was 151.2 +/- 10.3 fmol/mg protein while KD was 1.0 +/- 0.1 nM. Nonspecific binding of the ligand was very low, varying from 2.8% (at 0.27 nM) to 7.7% (at 3.58 nM). This micropunch assay was used to determine that progesterone can compete with the muscarinic ligand for the M2 receptor in vitro (IC50 = 50 x 10(-6) M). The steroids estradiol and testosterone, as well as ouabain, were without effect. Progesterone inhibited [3H]N-methyl scopolamine binding competitively (KD reduced from 1.9 to 4.3 nM) without affecting the rate of association of the ligand. However, progesterone induced a rapid dissociation of the ligand from its receptor. We conclude that the micropunch assay described here is suitable for the continued study of sex hormone effects on cardiac function.  相似文献

Specific binding of [35S]t-butylbicyclophosphorothionate (TBPS) to membranes from cerebral hemispheres of adult rat and chicken was determined over a range of radioligand concentrations from 0.25 to 500 nM. Scatchard plots of these data were curvilinear and nonlinear regression analysis indicated binding to two sites that differ in affinity. For rat cerebrum, KD(1) = 1.15 nM, Bmax(1) = 0.085 pmol/mg; KD(2) = 232 nM, Bmax(2) = 16.9 pmol/mg. For chicken cerebrum, KD(1) = 1.39 nM, Bmax(1) = 0.111 pmol/mg; KD(2) = 166 nM, Bmax(2) = 17.6 pmol/mg. This multiplicity of [35S]TBPS binding was further confirmed when unlabeled TBPS or picrotoxinin displaced radioligand. The displacement curves were biphasic and yielded Hill coefficients from 0.65 to 0.70. These displacement curves were also resolved into two components with distinct IC50 values for unlabeled TBPS (rat, 1.55 and 271 nM; chicken, 2.40 and 224 nM). The IC50 values were similar to the dissociation constants obtained from equilibrium binding measurements.  相似文献

In order to further understand the molecular nature of the voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel in skeletal muscle, we have performed classical radioligand binding studies and photoaffinity labeling with different types of tritiated inhibitors of the Ca2+ channel. The equilibrium dissociation constants (KD) for (-)-[3H]desmethoxyverapamil, d-cis-[3H]diltiazem, and (+/-)-[3H]bepridil at their receptor sites in skeletal muscle transverse tubule membranes are: 1.5 +/- 0.5, 50 +/- 5, and 20 +/- 5 nM, respectively. Maximum binding capacities in picomoles/milligram of protein were: 70 +/- 10 for (-)-[3H]desmethoxyverapamil, 50 +/- 15 for d-cis-[3H]diltiazem, and 75 +/- 15 for (+/-)-[3H]bepridil. The kinetics of association at 10 degrees C for the three types of tritiated compounds were relatively slow (3 X 10(5) M-1 S-1 for (-)-[3H]desmethoxyverapamil, 8 X 10(3) M-1 S-1 for d-cis-[3H]diltiazem, and 4.2 X 10(5) M-1 S-1 for (+/-)-[3H]bepridil). The dissociation of (-)-[3H]desmethoxyverapamil and d-cis-[3H]diltiazem from their receptor sites was also a slow process with half-lives of dissociation of 33 and 36 min, respectively. Competition studies using the three tritiated ligands suggest that they bind to the same receptor site which appears to be in a 1:1 stoichiometry with the dihydropyridine receptor. Photoaffinity labeling with high intensity ultraviolet light in the presence of (+/-)-[3H]bepridil or d-cis[3H]diltiazem resulted in the specific covalent incorporation of radioactivity into a polypeptide of Mr 170,000 +/- 10,000. A polypeptide of Mr 170,000 was also specifically labeled in photoaffinity labeling experiments using the high affinity dihydropyridine derivative (+)-[3H]PN 200-100.  相似文献

In unwashed brain membranes taurine produced an inhibition of [3H]flunitrazepam [( 3H]FNZ) binding with IC50 ranging between 31.5 and 11.9 microM; the IC20 varied between 18 and 26 nM. This inhibitory effect was of a mixed type, with a reduction in Bmax and an increase in KD. Various precursors and metabolites of taurine have a less inhibitory effect. Taurine also has little inhibitory effect (IC50 above 500 microM) on the binding of [3H]ethyl-beta-carboline-3-carboxylate. In extensively washed membranes, 10(-5) M taurine produces a 16-21% increase in the binding of [3H]FNZ while 10(-5) M gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) increases it between 31 and 42%. However, if 10(-5) M GABA plus 10(-5) M taurine is included in the assay there is a dramatic inhibitory effect. Taurine causes an inhibition of the GABAergic enhancement of [3H]FNZ binding with an IC50 between 7.3 and 7.8 microM. Binding experiments with [3H]taurine done under different conditions failed to detect a Na+-independent and specific [3H]taurine receptor. These results suggest that endogenous taurine, the second most abundant free amino acid in brain, may play an important modulatory role in the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor complex.  相似文献

Purified bovine myometrial plasma membranes were used to characterize prostaglandin (PG) E2 binding. Two binding sites were found: a high-affinity site with a dissociation constant (KD) of 0.27 +/- 0.08 nM and maximum binding (Bmax) of 102.46 +/- 8.6 fmol/mg membrane protein, and a lower affinity site with a KD = 6.13 +/- 0.50 nM and Bmax = 467.93 +/- 51.63 fmol/mg membrane protein. Membrane characterization demonstrated that [3H]PGE2 binding was localized in the plasma membrane. In binding competition experiments, unlabelled PGE1 displaced [3H]PGE2 from its receptor at the same concentrations as did PGE2. Neither PGF2 alpha nor PGD2 effectively competed for [3H]PGE2 binding. Adenylyl cyclase activity was inhibited at concentrations of PGE2 that occupy the high-affinity receptor. These data demonstrate that two receptor sites, or states of binding within a single receptor, are present for PGE2 in purified myometrial membranes. PGE2 inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity support the view that cAMP has a physiological role in the regulation of myometrial contractility by PGE2.  相似文献

We have examined the binding of [3H]bradykinin to bovine myometrial membranes and assessed its sensitivity to guanine nucleotides. Total binding displayed a typical B2 kinin receptor specificity. However, saturation binding isotherms were resolved into at least two components with KD values of 8 pM (45%) and 378 pM (55%). Low affinity binding exhibited relatively rapid rates of association (kobs = 1.40 x 10(-2) s-1) and dissociation (k-1 = 3.82 x 10(-3) s-1), while high affinity binding exhibited considerably slower rates (kobs = 9.52 x 10(-4) s-1 and k-1 = 4.43 x 10(-5) s-1). Pre-equilibrium dissociation kinetics revealed that formation of high affinity binding was characterized as a time-dependent accumulation of the slow dissociation rate at the expense of at least one other more rapid dissociation rate. In the presence of 10 microM guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p), at least two binding components were resolved with KD values of 37 pM (12%) and 444 pM (88%). Gpp(NH)p apparently specifically perturbed high affinity binding by completely preventing the accumulation of the slow dissociation phase. Instead, two more rapid dissociation rates (k-1 = 8.53 x 10(-3) s-1 and 4.43 x 10(-4) s-1) were observed. These results suggest that [3H]bradykinin interacts with at least two B2 kinin receptor-like binding sites in bovine myometrial membranes. A three-state model for the guanine nucleotide-sensitive agonist interaction with the high affinity binding sites is proposed.  相似文献
