Popis: | The binding of [3H](+)-7-hydroxy-2-(N,N-di-n-propylamino)tetralin ([3H]7-OH-DPAT) to dopamine D2 and D3 receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was investigated and compared with [3H]methylspiperone. [3H]7-OH-DPAT labeled the D3 receptor in the CHO cells in a guanine nucleotide-insensitive fashion and exhibited a Kd of about 0.5 nM. In the presence of MgCl2. [3H]7-OH-DPAT was also found to label the D2 receptor in CHO cells with high affinity (3.6 nM). The binding of [3H]7-OH-DPAT to the D2 receptor was sensitive to guanine nucleotides suggesting occupancy of a high affinity G protein-coupled state of the receptor. These results suggest that caution should be exercised when using [3H]7-OH-DPAT to label the dopamine D3 receptor in brain tissues. |
