Abstract:
:[3H]Idazoxan is a labelled ligand that is frequently used to study alpha 2-adrenoceptors in the central nervous system. In pig kidney membranes, [3H]idazoxan labelled high-affinity binding sites (Kd = 1.5 nM) that were not alpha 2-adrenoceptors and which recognized clonidine with low affinity. This new class of binding sites was recognized by amiloride derivatives; however, it is not likely that these sites are the well-known targets of amiloride in the kidney: the Na+/H+ exchanger and the epithelium Na+ channel. These binding sites may be the normal target of a series of imidazolidines derivatives (guanabenz, guanochlor, guanoxan), which are known for their antihypertensive properties.
