title: Identification and characterization of two sigma-like binding sites in the mouse neuroblastoma x rat glioma hybrid cell line NG108-15.
abstract: NG108-15 cells were shown to possess high affinity binding sites for 1,3-di(2-[5-3H]tolyl)guanidine ([3H]DTG), a selective sigma ligand (Kd = 23 nM; maximal number of binding sites = 15.6 pmol/mg). The rank order of potency of drugs at this site was DTG greater than haloperidol greater than pentazocine greater than 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine [(+)-3-PPP] greater than phencyclidine (PCP) greater than metaphit greater than (-)-3-PPP greater than (-)-N-allylnormetazocine [(-)-SKF 10,047] greater than (-)-butaclamol greater than (+)-butaclamol greater than (+)-SKF 10,047 greater than dizolcipine (MK 801 [5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo(a,d)cyclohepten-5,10-imine- maleate]) greater than ketamine. Both, Kd value and pattern of ligand selectivity suggest a close relationship to sigma sites in rodent brain. However, in comparison to sigma sites in brain stereoselectivity for the benzomorphan, SKF 10,047 was reversed and the affinities for benzomorphans were only moderate to low. Thus, sigma binding sites in NG108-15 cells seem to correspond to recently detected sigma sites in a pheochromocytoma cell line (PC12). [3H]-1-(2-thienyl)-cyclohexyl]piperidine ([3H]TCP), a PCP receptor-selective ligand binds to NG108-15 cells with moderate affinity (Kd = 139 nM; maximal number of binding sites = 4.7 pmol/mg of protein).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
