Popis: | 1. Histamine receptors in the membranes prepared from guinea-pig left atria were characterized with [3H]-mepyramine and [3H]-tiotidine binding. 2. The binding of the H1-antagonist, [3H]-mepyramine, was saturable and of high affinity with a maximum binding capacity of 307 +/- 27 fmol mg-1 protein (n = 14) and with an equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) of 1.5 +/- 0.2 nM (n = 14). The binding was rapid and readily reversible. 3. The competition curve for [3H]-mepyramine binding by histamine was biphasic and revealed high and low affinity states of binding. The addition of 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate (GppNHp) (100 microM) converted this heterogeneous binding into homogeneous binding of low affinity. 4. The competition curves of H1-antagonists with [3H]-mepyramine had Hill coefficients not significantly different from unity, consistent with competition with [3H]-mepyramine at a single site. GppNHp did not shift the competition curves. 5. Dissociation constants for H1-antagonists determined from inhibition of [3H]-mepyramine binding correlated well with the constants derived from inhibition of the positive inotropic response of guinea-pig left atria to histamine. 6. The H2-antagonist, [3H]-tiotidine, labelled an apparently homogeneous population of recognition sites with a maximum binding capacity of 41 +/- 8 fmol mg-1 protein (n = 6) and a KD of 10.8 +/- 1.2 nM (n = 6). 7. Although histamine competed for [3H]-tiotidine binding in a concentration-dependent manner, the curve was monophasic and was not shifted by GppNHp. 8. It is concluded that both H1- and H2-receptors exist in guinea-pig left atria. H1-receptors probably couple to intracellular effector(s) through a guanine nucleotide-dependent transducing mechanism. On the other hand, H2-receptors seem unlikely to be linked to guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins in guineapig left atria, which may explain the failure of histamine to cause an increase in cyclic AMP in spite of the presence of H2-receptors. |
