Inhibition of 3H-clozapine binding in rat brain after oral administration of neuroleptics
Clozapine, thioridazine, perlapine, clothiapine, chlorpromazine, NT 104–252, loxapine or haloperidol were administered orally, and atropine subcutaneously, to rats. The animals were decapitated, brain tissue was removed and homogenized in tris buffer and incubated with 3H-clozapine. Total and nonspe...

Zusammenfassung: | Clozapine, thioridazine, perlapine, clothiapine, chlorpromazine, NT 104–252, loxapine or haloperidol were administered orally, and atropine subcutaneously, to rats. The animals were decapitated, brain tissue was removed and homogenized in tris buffer and incubated with
3H-clozapine. Total and nonspecifically bound
3H-clozapine were measured in each preparation. A dose-dependent inhibition of specific
3H-clozapine binding of more than 50% was observed only after the administration of clozapine or thioridazine. There was no correlation between inhibition of
3H-clozapine binding and that of
3H-haloperidol, a specific ligand for DA-receptors.
3H-Clozapine receptor density was much greater than
3H-haloperidol receptor density, suggesting that the majority of clozapine binding sites are not DA-receptors. |
