[125I]-2-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)aminoethane ([125I]-2C-I) as a label for the 5-HT2 receptor in rat frontal cortex
Recent studies of 5-HT2 receptor binding have involved the use of radiolabeled agonists. This report describes the use of [125I]-2-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)aminoethane ([125I]-2C-I) as a label for low-density 5-HT2 agonist binding sites. A nonhydrolyzable analog of GTP, GppNHp, was found to inhib...

Zusammenfassung: | Recent studies of 5-HT2 receptor binding have involved the use of radiolabeled agonists. This report describes the use of [125I]-2-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)aminoethane ([125I]-2C-I) as a label for low-density 5-HT2 agonist binding sites. A nonhydrolyzable analog of GTP, GppNHp, was found to inhibit the high affinity binding of [125I]-2C-I. 5-HT and several 5-HT2 agonists and antagonists displayed high affinity for this site. In addition, a significant decrease in the Bmax value, but not the KD for [125I]-2C-I was observed at 37 degrees C as compared to that observed at 24 degrees C. Several structure-activity relationships were investigated for displacement of [125I]-2C-I, and the results are consistent with the importance of this receptor in the mechanism of action of hallucinogens. This study demonstrates the utility of [125I]-2C-I as a novel radioligand and provides further data that the 5-HT2 receptor is significantly linked to hallucinogenic activity for several compounds. |
