Abstract:
:The kinetics of dissociation of [3H]methyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta-CCM) binding was studied in a synaptosomal membrane preparation of rat cerebral cortex. Dissociation was biphasic: a faster phase (10-30% contribution) was followed by a slower phase. Picrotoxin pretreatment at 22 degrees C enhanced the equilibrium binding of [3H]beta-CCM. The half-life of the slower phase of beta-CCM dissociation (t1/2II) was increased by 60 muM picrotoxin from 1.7 min to 3.3 min. The dissociation of [3H]beta-CCM was identical when initiated by an excess of either diazepam or beta-CCM. Quasi-equilibrium Scatchard analysis of [3H]beta-CCM binding was performed by a kinetic separation of the rapid and slow phases of dissociation. The slow and rapid phases represented beta-CCM binding sites of high and low affinity, respectively. The dissociation of [3H]beta-CCM (control t1/2II = 2.0 min) was decelerated by the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) antagonist 3-alpha-hydroxy-16-imino-5 beta-17-aza-androstan-11-one (R 5135) (t1/2II = 2.5 min) and accelerated by GABA (t1/2II = 1.6 min). GABA inhibited both high- and low-affinity beta-CCM bindings.
