Abstract: | Specific binding of 3H-substance P was studied in guinea-pig ileum longitudinal smooth muscle membranes. A single population of non-interacting sites with an apparent dissociation constant of 1.8 nM was observed. The relative potencies of some structural analogues of substance P, notably eledoisin and substance P (5-11), in competing for 3H-substance P binding sites, however, had little resemblance to their potencies in contracting the intact muscle or in eliciting the breakdown of inositol phospholipids in this tissue. The results are discussed in the light of other binding studies for substance P. |
