| Abstract: | Cat and rat experiments show that the protein fraction isolated from blood serum of the Greenland seal has a protective activity against motion sickness. This activity is comparable to that of the classical vestibuloprotector scopolamine and is greater than that of diprazine. Radioligand assay of the receptor binding showed that the serum protein fraction has the highest affinity for α2-adrenoceptors, μ-opioid, and benzodiazepine receptors.
