Binding of a thromboxane A2/prostaglandin H2 receptor antagonist to guinea-pig platelets.
The binding of [125I]9,11-dimethylmethano-11,12-methano-16-(3-iodo-4-hydroxypheny l)-13,14- dihydro-13-aza-15 alpha beta-omega-tetranor-TXA2 [( 125I]PTA-OH), a thromboxane A2/prostaglandin H2 receptor antagonist, to washed guinea-pig platelets was studied. [125I]PTA-OH bound to guinea-pig platelets in a saturable and displaceable manner. The Kd for [125I]PTA-OH was 14.5 +/- 2 nM (n = 4) and the Bmax was 32 +/- 7 fmol/10(7) platelets or 1,927 +/- 422 binding sites/platelet. The IC50 value for a series of 13-azapinane TXA2 analogs to antagonize the TXA2/PGH2 mimetic U46619-induced platelet aggregation and displace [125I]PTA-OH from its binding site was determined. The IC50 values for the series of five antagonists were highly correlated (r = 0.99) in the binding assays and aggregation studies. The ability of a series of five agonists to displace [125I]PTA-OH from its binding site was compared to their ability to induce platelet aggregation. All the agonists completely displaced the ligand from its binding site but their rank order did not correlate well with their ability to induce aggregation (r = 0.37). Collectively, the data are consistent with the notion that [125I]PTA-OH binds to a putative TXA2/PGH2 receptor in guinea-pig platelets.
