Abstract：
:Compared to other M(1) muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M(1) mAChR) agonists, xanomeline demonstrates both reversible and persistent modes of binding to the receptor. In our study, we investigated the long-term consequences of brief incubation of Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing M(1) mAChR (M(1)-CHO) with low concentrations of xanomeline followed by washing off the free drug. Thus, M(1)-CHO cells were exposed to 100 nM xanomeline for 1h then washed extensively. Washed cells were either used immediately for binding assays or incubated for 23 h in the absence of free xanomeline. Only the latter treatment conditions resulted in marked attenuation of binding of the muscarinic radioligand [(3)H]N-methylscopolamine ([(3)H]NMS) to intact cells. Shortening the xanomeline pretreatment period to 1 min had the same trends as the 1h pretreatment, implying that xanomeline binds instantly to the receptor to elicit long-term wash-resistant effects. Presence of atropine during the brief period of xanomeline pretreatment did not markedly modulate xanomeline's long-term effects, which suggests that persistent anchoring of the xanomeline molecule to the M(1) receptor takes place at a site distinct from the orthosteric binding domain. Our findings suggest the possibility of a time-dependent transition of the conformation of the muscarinic M(1) receptor-xanomeline complex between states that vary in their ability to bind [(3)H]NMS. However, possible involvement of other mechanisms of long-term receptor regulation cannot be discounted.
