title: PD 115,199: an antagonist ligand for adenosine A2 receptors.
abstract: PD 115,199, N-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-N-methyl-4-(2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-2,6-dioxo-1,3- dipropyl-1H-purin-8-yl)benzenesulfonamide, was found to have high affinity for the A2 adenosine receptor labeled by 3H-NECA in rat striatal membranes (Ki 15.5 nM). Unlike other potent adenosine antagonists, which always showed some degree of selectivity for the A1 receptor, PD 115,199 had equal affinity at A1 and A2 receptors (Ki in 3H-CHA binding to A1 receptors 13.9 nM). 3H-PD 115,199 (126 Ci/mmol) was prepared by reduction of the diallyl analog, and binding experiments were performed with 0.5 nM 3H-PD 115,199 at 25 degrees C in rat striatal membranes. By nonlinear least-squares analysis of the concentration-inhibition curve for the highly A1-selective adenosine antagonist PD 116,948 (8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine), it could be demonstrated that about 11% of specific 3H-PD 115,199 binding was to A1 receptors, and the remainder to A2 receptors. A 20 nM concentration of PD 116,948 was included in subsequent experiments to eliminate the A1 component of binding. The remaining binding had a Kd of 2.6 nM and Bmax of 56 pmol/g wet weight. Specific binding was about 79% of total binding. Affinities of compounds in the 3H-PD 115,199 assay were consistent with binding to a high-affinity A2 receptor: antagonists were consistently about three times more potent in 3H-PD 115,199 binding than in 3H-NECA binding, whereas agonists were consistently about fivefold less potent.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
