High-affinity binding sites for PK 11195, but not for RO5-4864, in porcine aortic smooth muscle.
Peripheral benzodiazepine (BZ) binding sites were characterized in porcine aortic smooth muscle membrane preparation. [3H]PK11195 bound with high affinity to the membranes (Kd = 8.6 + 0.9 nM), whereas [3H]Ro5-4864 bound slightly to the membranes. The Ki value of Ro5-4864 obtained from the inhibition of [3H]PK 11195 binding was 1200 + 200 nM, which was 480 times weaker than that obtained in rat kidney. Furthermore, the Ro5-4864 effect was temperature-insensitive. When [3H]PK 11195 binding was examined in porcine, human and rat platelets, Ro5-4864 inhibited the binding in porcine and human platelets one order of magnitude less potently than that in rat platelets. These results suggest that low affinity for Ro5-4864 in porcine aorta smooth muscle originates in porcine tissue, but not in smooth muscle.
