An apparently monomeric form of the digitonin-solubilized muscarinic acetylcholine receptor from the rat cerebral cortex retains a high affinity of 7 X 10(7) M-1 for pirenzepine. Muscarinic receptor binding sites in the rat cerebral cortex with a low affinity for pirenzepine are solubilized with relatively little change in affinity. The ability of pirenzepine to distinguish between subtypes of muscarinic binding site in the cerebral cortex is manifest in both the membrane-bound and soluble state. 相似文献

Cholecystokinin (CCK) binding sites were solubilized from pig cerebral cortical membranes with digitonin (2%, w/v) in the presence of Na+ (120 mM) and Mg2+ (5 mM). Scatchard plot transformation of equilibrium binding data obtained with 125I-CCK-8S gave an apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.6 nM, comparable to that obtained in membranes in the presence of these cations. Hill coefficients close to unity suggested the presence of a single population of receptor sites. Competitive inhibition studies with pentagastrin, gastrin(1–17)S and the CCKA receptor antagonist L-364,718 indicated that the solubilized receptor sites were of the B-type (CCKB), with the same pharmacological profile as that observed in membranes. Optimal specific binding of 125I-CCK-8S to membrane-bound and solubilized receptors was obtained in the presence of divalent cations. Both the membrane-bound and the solubilized receptor activity were attenuated by guanylyl-imidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) indicating that the brain CCKB receptors are coupled to G proteins. 相似文献

Avermectin binding in Caenorhabditis elegans. A two-state model for the avermectin binding site 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Specific binding sites for ivermectin (IVM; 22,23-dihydroavermectin-B1) were identified and characterized in a crude membrane fraction prepared from the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Specific [3H]IVM binding was saturable with an apparent dissociation constant, Kd, of 0.26 nM and a receptor concentration of 3.53 pmol/mg protein. [3H]IVM binding in C. elegans was linear with tissue protein concentration, and optimal binding occurred within a pH range of 7.3 to 7.6. Kinetic analysis of the binding showed that the reaction proceeded by a two-step mechanism. Initially, a rapidly reversible complex was formed and, after additional incubation, this complex was transformed to a much more slowly reversible complex. Stereospecificity of [3H]IVM binding to C. elegans membranes was demonstrated by competition with a series of avermectin derivatives. The in vivo effects of IVM and its derivatives on C. elegans motility were concentration dependent and correlated well with their relative binding affinities. Several putative neurotransmitters including gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), carbamyl choline, taurine, glutamate and dopamine were tested and found to have no effect on IVM binding. Specific IVM binding sites were also identified in rat brain; however, the affinity was approximately 100-fold lower than that observed in C. elegans and stereospecificity studies demonstrated structural differences in the two binding sites. These results are the first direct demonstration of a specific IVM binding site in nematodes and thus are important in furthering our understanding of its mode of action. 相似文献

In conscious cats with gastric fistulas, 10 μg · kg?1 of human urinary gastric inhibitor (HUGI) given as an intravenous bolus injection increased mean rectal temperature 1.4°C and inhibited mean gastrin-stimulated acid secretion by 64%. The sample of HUGI contained an amount of β-hydroxymyristic acid corresponding to a 5% contamination of the HUGI with bacterial endotoxin. Injection of bacterial endotoxin in an amount corresponding to the β-hydroxymyristic acid content of HUGI mimicked, both in magnitude and time course, the increase in body temperature and the inhibition of acid secretion produced by HUGI. We conclude that inhibition of acid secretion by HUGI may be due to the presence of an endotoxin-like contaminant. 相似文献

The high affinity binding sites for angiotensin II were solubilized from rat liver membranes by treatment with CHAPS. The
binding protein was also partially purified by angiotensin III inhibitor-coupled Affi-gel affinity chromatography. Binding
to the intact membranes as well as to the solubilized preparation was specific and saturable. According to the Scatchard plot,
the membrane preparations exhibited a single class of high affinity binding sites with aKd of 0.71 nM. The solubilized preparation also showed the presence of a single class of binding sites with less affinity (Kd of 14 nM). Meanwhile the competition studies using angiotensin II analogues represented two separate binding sites for angiotensin
II and single binding site for antagonist. These latter findings were correlated to the results provided by Garrison's research
group. More works are needed to clarify this discrepancy. 相似文献

A 5-HT3 binding site, with high affinity for (S-)[3H]zacopride, was solubilized from rabbit small bowel muscularis membranes utilizing 0.5% sodium cholate and 400 mM (NH4)2SO4. Approximately 72% of the (S-)[3H]zacopride binding activity was recovered in a form that retained the high affinity (Kd = 0.7 nM) and specificity for this radioligand that is characteristic of the membrane-bound receptor. ICS 205-930 and other 5-HT3 compounds were effective inhibitors and exhibited the same rank order of potency in the solubilized and membrane-bound preparations. The receptor-detergent complex did not sediment after centrifugation for 1 h at 150,000 x g and eluted between thyroglobulin (MW = 669,000) and apoferritin (MW = 443,000) when fractionated by high-performance liquid chromatography gel filtration. This is the first report of the solubilization of a 5-HT3 binding site. 相似文献

Evidence for association of a high affinity avermectin binding site with the benzodiazepine receptor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Avermectin B1a concentrations corresponding to the KD value of a specific high affinity binding site for [3H]avermectin B1a are sufficient to stimulate the specific high affinity binding of [3H]flunitrazepam to its receptors. This stimulation of [3H]flunitrazepam binding by low concentrations of avermectin B1a was enhanced by chloride ions and picrotoxinin and reduced by the GABA agonists THIP and PSA. The similar modulation by chloride ions, GABA agonists and picrotoxinin and the resistance against washing of membranes of avermectin B1a bound to its specific high affinity binding site or to the site modulating [3H]flunitrazepam binding indicate a close association of the specific high affinity binding site for [3H]avermectin B1a with the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor complex. 相似文献

The pharmaceutical ivermectin is used to treat parasitic infections, such as those caused by nematodes. While several studies have demonstrated the severe effects of ivermectin on non-target organisms, little is known about the drug??s impact on free-living nematodes. In the present work, a full life-cycle experiment was conducted to estimate how an ivermectin lowest observed effect concentration derived from a Caenorhabditis elegans bioassay (endpoint reproduction) might translate into effects at the population level of this free-living nematode. The results showed that fecundity decreased to levels similar to those determined in the bioassay after a time of corresponding duration (18.6 % inhibition compared to the control), but the impact then rather weakened until the end of the experiment, at which point the net reproductive rate (R0) was still, but not significantly, reduced by 12.4 %. Moreover, the average lifespan, length of the reproductive period, maximum daily reproduction rate, and intrinsic rate of increase (rm) were significantly reduced by 30.0, 25.9, 11.2, and 3.5 %, respectively. The experiment revealed that a 4-day bioassay is protective enough for C. elegans with respect to ivermectin??s effects on fecundity. However, the pronounced effects of a low drug concentration on survival, a highly elastic trait, may better account for the observed population-level response, i.e., a decrease of rm, than the effects on fecundity. These results emphasize that full life-cycle experiments are valuable for assessment of pollutants, because the effects on several life-cycle traits can be simultaneously measured and integrated into an ecologically relevant parameter, the population growth rate, that reflects a population??s response to a specific pollutant. 相似文献

The specific high affinity binding of [3H]avermectin B1a was investigated in membranes from several rat brain regions. Binding occurred rapidly, was reversible and partially dependent on the presence of chloride ions in the incubation medium. Specific high affinity binding of [3H]avermectin B1a was partially inhibited by GABA receptor agonists and this effect was blocked by GABA receptor antagonists. Pentobarbital and etazolate inhibited, and picrotoxin, picrotoxinin and IPTBO stimulated high affinity binding of [3H]avermectin B1a. All these effects were influenced by the presence of chloride ions in the incubation medium. The results indicate that the high affinity binding site of [3H]avermectin B1a is associated with the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor-chloride ion channel complex. 相似文献

The binding of [3H]ouabain has been studied in (Na+ + K+)-ATPase enriched cardiac cell membranes, as well as in cardiac muscle and non-muscle cells in culture--all obtained from hearts of neonatal rats. The binding has been correlated with ouabain-induced inhibition of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (cardiac cell membranes) and the inhibition of active (86Rb+ + K+)-influx (cardiac muscle and non-muscle cells in culture). Furthermore, the effect of ouabain on the amplitude of cell-wall motion and contraction velocity has been studied in electrically driven cardiac muscle cells. In muscle and non-muscle cells, two classes of ouabain binding sites have been identified. In rat heart muscle cells, the high affinity binding site has a dissociation constant (KD) of 3.2 X 10(-8) M and a binding capacity (B) of 0.2 pmole/mg protein (80,000 sites/cell); the values for the low affinity binding site are: KD = 7.1 X 10(-6) M; B = 2.6 pmole/mg protein (10(6) sites/cell). The binding to both types of binding sites is depressed by K+ and abolished after heat denaturation of the cells. The kinetics of [3H]ouabain binding to rat heart muscle cells (association and dissociation rate constants, K+- and temperature-dependence of association and dissociation processes) have been characterized. In rat heart muscle and non-muscle cells, the binding of [3H]ouabain to the low affinity site results in inhibition of the (86Rb+ + K+)-influx (EC50 = 1.3 and 1.5 X 10(-5) M ouabain), a decrease in cell-K+ (EC50 = 1.9 and 1.4 X 10(-5) M) and an increase in cell-Na+ (10(-5)-10(-4) M). The ouabain-induced positive inotropic effect (increase in amplitude of cell-wall motion, increase in contraction velocity) in cardiac muscle cells is observed only at ouabain concentrations greater than or equal to 5 X 10(-6) M, and it is therefore probably attributed to occupation of the low affinity binding site. Coupling of occupation of the low affinity site by ouabain with drug-induced inhibition of the sodium pump and with drug-induced positive inotropic action is further substantiated by kinetic measurements. In contrast, occupation of the high affinity binding site does not produce any measurable inhibition of the sodium pump activity or positive inotropy.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Caenorhabditis elegans is a nematode that has been used as a valuable research tool in many facets of biological research. Researchers have used the many tools available to investigate this well-studied nematode, including a cell lineage map, sequenced genome, and complete wiring diagram of the nervous system, making in-depth investigation of the nervous system practical. These tools, along with other advantages, such as its small size, short life cycle, transparency, and ability to generate many progeny, have made C. elegans an attractive model for many studies, including those investigating toxicological paradigms and those using high throughput techniques. Researchers have investigated a number of endpoints, such as behavior and protein expression using a green fluorescent protein (GFP) marker following toxicant exposure and have explored the mechanisms of toxicity using techniques such as microarray, RNA interference (RNAi), and mutagenesis. This review discusses the benefits of using C. elegans as a model system and gives examples of the uses of C. elegans in toxicological research. High throughput techniques are discussed highlighting the advantages of using an in vivo system that has many advantageous characteristics of an in vitro system while emphasizing endpoints relating to developmental and adult neurotoxicity. 相似文献

To learn more about the binding conformation of phencyclidine (PCP) and to arrive at analogues of higher affinity, which may serve as noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists, eight optically pure PCP analogues were designed with the aid of computer. These compounds represent conformationally constrained versions of PCP in which the motion of the phenyl ring is frozen, thus allowing a determination of the orientation of the phenyl ring relevant to binding. The analogues were synthesized by a Diels-Alder strategy and tested in a radioligand binding assay to evaluate their affinity for the PCP binding site of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor complex. One of the analogues was found to bind with nanomolar affinity (IC50 = 19 nM) and to be 73-fold more potent in binding than its enantiomer. These results, which further elucidate the structural determinants of high affinity binding, should aid both in the design of higher affinity molecular probes of the PCP binding site and in the discovery of potential neuroprotective agents. 相似文献

The dependence of neurotransmitter secretion on external calcium ions during development of opiate tolerance in the mouse vas deferens was studied. The writhing response of mice to an i.p. injection of acetylcholine was inhibited by morphine. Reversal of this antinociceptive effect of morphine during chronic treatment signalled the development of tolerance. Tolerance to morphine at the neuromuscular junction was shown as a reversal of the initial shift of the size of the excitatory junction potential (e.j.p.) vs extracellular calcium concentration relationship back towards the control without any change in the power of 2.4. Facilitation in the amplitude of the e.j.p. occurs with low frequency (2 Hz) stimulation. The initial increase in facilitation induced by morphine was reversed by chronic morphine treatment without any change in the plateau e.j.p. amplitude achieved after a long low frequency train of impulses. At high frequencies (10 Hz) the initial increase in e.j.p. amplitude was followed by a depression. Acute morphine administration decreased the size of the e.j.p., this was followed by an increase in facilitation and a decrease in depression. These effects were reversed after chronic morphine treatment. Tolerance to morphine involves a counteradaptive process which restores the normal entry of calcium ions or its actions within the release sites in promoting transmitter release. 相似文献

Summary In solubilized extracts from bovine striatal membranes three different binding sites for 5-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine ([3H]NECA) were observed after separation of the extract by gel filtration on Sepharose CL-6B. The first peak was eluted in the void volume and contained the AZ adenosine receptor. In the second peak, [3H]NECA binding sites were eluted with a pharmacological profile characteristic of adenotin, a low affinity non-receptor adenosine binding protein. The third peak represented approximately 50% of the [3H]NECA binding activity. This site bound [3H]NECA in a reversible and saturable manner with K

of 17 nmol/l and a binding capacity of 11.3 pmol/mg protein. In competition experiments, adenosine, NECA, NAD, nnosine, 5-AMP and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine were the most potent ligands. In contrast to adenosine receptors, this site did neither bind adenosine receptor antagonists nor the A2 selective agonist CGS 21,680 (2-[p-(2-carboxyethyl)phenethylamino]5-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine). These results suggest the existence of a novel high affinity binding site for adenosine of unknown function in bovine striatum.Abbreviations AMPPCP

Ligands of the benzodiazepine binding site of the GABA(A) receptor come in three flavors: positive allosteric modulators, negative allosteric modulators and antagonists all of which can bind with high affinity. The GABA(A) receptor is a pentameric protein which forms a chloride selective ion channel and ligands of the benzodiazepine binding site stabilize three different conformations of this protein. Classical benzodiazepines exert a positive allosteric effect by increasing the apparent affinity of channel opening by the agonist γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). We concentrate here on the major adult isoform, the α(1)β(2)γ(2) GABA(A) receptor. The classical binding pocket for benzodiazepines is located in a subunit cleft between α(1) and γ(2) subunits in a position homologous to the agonist binding site for GABA that is located between β(2) and α(1) subunits. We review here approaches to this picture. In particular, point mutations were performed in combination with subsequent analysis of the expressed mutant proteins using either electrophysiological techniques or radioactive ligand binding assays. The predictive power of these methods is assessed by comparing the results with the predictions that can be made on the basis of the recently published crystal structure of the acetylcholine binding protein that shows homology to the N-terminal, extracellular domain of the GABA(A) receptor. In addition, we review an approach to the question of how the benzodiazepine ligands are positioned in their binding pocket. We also discuss a newly postulated modulatory site for benzodiazepines at the α(1)/β(2) subunit interface, homologous to the classical benzodiazepine binding pocket. 相似文献

Summary
3H-Desipramine binding sites of the plasma membranes of rat phaeochromocytoma cells (PC12-cells) were solubilized with the nonionic detergent digitonin (0.5%). With the method described here, the binding characteristics of the desipramine binding site were essentially unaltered by solubilization.Binding of3H-desipramine to the solubilized binding site showed the following characteristics: (1)3H-desipramine bound with high affinity (K
D=16.6 nmol/l) to a single class of noninteracting (Hill-coefficient=1.01) binding sites; (2) binding was reversible; (3) binding of unlabelled desipramine had the same dissociation constant as had3H-desipramine; (4) increasing concentrations of sodium- and chloride-ions stimulated the binding of3H-desipramine; (5) binding was inhibited by various inhibitors and substrates of neuronal uptake of noradrenaline; and (6) inhibition of binding by the optical isomers of cocaine, oxaprotiline, and amphetamine showed marked stereoselectivity (with preference for (–)cocaine, (+)oxaprotiline, and (+)amphetamine).The finding that the binding of3H-desipramine to the solubilized binding site was dependent on sodium and chloride, as the neuronal uptake of noradrenaline is, and the finding that all substrates of uptake1 inhibited the binding of3H-desipramine, is consistant with the view that desipramine binds to the substrate recognition site of the neuronal carrier for noradrenaline.Some of the results were communicated to the German Pharmacological Society (Schömig and Bönisch 1985). This study was supported partly by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (Bo521) and partly by Sonderforschungsbereich SFB 176 相似文献

1. The characteristics of membrane bound GABAB receptors in pig brain are similar to those in rat brain as judged by in vitro binding experiments and sensitivity to GTP. The rank order of affinity of GABAB receptor ligands was CGP 54626 > GABA approximately (-)-baclofen >> CGP 35348 = CGP 36742 > (+)-baclofen in membranes from both species. 2. For solubilization of GABAB receptors from pig brain, washed membranes were preincubated with 5 mM MgSO4 and subsequently incubated with various detergents. 3-[(3-Cholamidopropyl)dimethyl-ammoniol]-1-propane sulphonate (CHAPS) (0.5%) proved to be the most successful, solubilizing 22.7 +/- 4.7% (mean +/- s.e. mean, n = 6) of GABAB receptors. 3. Binding of [3H]-GABA to GABAB receptors solubilized with 0.5% CHAPS exhibited similar characteristics to the binding at membrane bound receptors since, firstly, the Kd and Bmax values (around 30 nM and 450 fmol mg-1 protein, respectively) were comparable; secondly, stereospecific binding for baclofen was obtained in both forms; thirdly, the affinity for the agonists GABA and (-)-baclofen and the antagonists CGP 35348, CGP 36742 and CGP 54626 were the same; fourthly, comparable sensitivity to Ca2+ (2.5 mM) was observed and finally, a similar sensitivity to GTP was apparent. 4. Saturation experiments performed with the GABAB antagonist, [3H]-CGP 54626, indicated a higher Kd value and a lower Bmax value for solubilized (7.7 +/- 2.6 nM and 1033 +/- 41 fmol mg-1 protein, mean +/- s.e. mean, n = 3) than for membrane bound receptors (1.35 +/- 0.08 nM, 1171 +/- 20 fmol mg-1 protein, n = 3). 相似文献

Solubilization and characterization of the serotonin 5-HT1c site from pig choroid plexus 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A novel type of serotonergic binding site, termed the 5-HT1c site, was recently identified on choroid plexus epithelial cells. In the present study, we describe the solubilization of pig choroid plexus 5-HT1c sites by the zwitterionic detergent 3-(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS). High affinity labeling of both membrane-bound and solubilized 5-HT1c sites was obtained by use of the serotonergic radioligand N1-methyl-2-[125I]lysergic acid diethylamide (125I-MIL). In solubilized preparations, 125I-MIL exhibited a dissociation constant (Kd) of 2.0 nM and a 60-75% ratio of specific to total binding. Approximately 45% of the membrane binding sites were solubilized by CHAPS as measured by a postlabeling, polyethylene glycol precipitation method. The CHAPS-solubilized 5-HT1c site fulfilled the accepted criteria for receptor solubilization. The affinities of a series of serotonergic antagonists for the 5-HT1c site showed little or no change upon solubilization of the site. Serotonin, however, showed a 20-fold increase in affinity for the 5-HT1c site after solubilization, which may indicate the loss of a modulatory component during detergent treatment. Both gel filtration and equilibrium sedimentation experiments indicate that the CHAPS-solubilized site is a large molecular weight complex. These studies demonstrate that the pig choroid plexus 5-HT1c site can be solubilized with retention of its binding activity in a form suitable for further purification and characterization. 相似文献
