Conversion of 3H-nitrendipine binding to the low affinity binding state following the treatment of hippocampal slices with morphine.

چکیده
The effect of morphine on the binding of 3H-nitrendipine was studied in rat hippocampal preparations. Treatment of slices with morphine followed by the preparation of membrane fractions revealed the presence of low affinity binding sites. The effect of morphine was antagonized by naloxone. The effect was not observed when the membrane fraction was incubated with morphine. These results suggest that morphine changes the affinity of calcium for its channels and reduces its influx.

Optimum Conditions of Radioligand Receptor Binding Assay of Ligands of Benzodiazepine Receptors
To obtain drugs which are more selective at benzodiazepine (BZD) receptors, design and synthesis of functionally selective ligands for BZD receptors is the current strategy of our pharmaceutical chemistry department. The affinity of newly synthesized ligands is assessed by radioligand receptor binding assays. Based on our previous studies, 2-phenyl-5-oxo-7-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolo[a,2,3]-pyrimid...

متن کاملHeterogeneity of opioid receptor binding in brain slices.
A methodological approach was established for the study of ligand binding to multiple opioid receptors in slices from rat brain striatum. Specific binding of radiolabeled opiates was resolved from total binding with enantiomers or excess unlabeled ligand. Equilibrium binding of triated etorphine, dihydromorphine, and ethylketocyclazocine, and competitive displacement of [3H]etorphine and [3H]di...
متن کاملElectrophysiological responsiveness to isoproterenol in rat hippocampal slices correlates with changes in beta-adrenergic receptor density induced by chronic morphine treatment.
The effects of chronic morphine treatment and morphine withdrawal on beta-adrenergic receptor density and electrophysiological responsiveness in rat hippocampus were examined. Chronic treatment of rats with morphine for 14 days resulted in a 19% increase in the number of beta-adrenergic receptors in hippocampus, as measured by the binding of the specific antagonist [3H]dihydroalprenolol (DHA). ...
متن کاملDirect photoaffinity labeling of the high affinity nitrendipine-binding site in subcellular membrane fractions isolated from canine myocardium.
[3H]Nitrendipine and high intensity ultraviolet irradiation have been used to photoaffinity label the protein component of the high affinity nitrendipine-binding site in subcellular membrane fractions from canine cardiac muscle. Irradiation of isolated cardiac membranes in the presence of [3H]nitrendipine resulted in the covalent labeling of a protein component that migrated on sodium dodecyl s...
