T1 - Stereoselectivity of procyclidine binding to muscarinic receptor subtypes M\(_1\), M\(_2\) and M\(_4\) N2 - The goals of the present study were: (1) to investigate thc binding properlies oi (R)- and (S)-procyclidine and two aehiral derivatives of muscarinic M\(_1\)• M\(_2\) and M\(_4\) receptor subtypes and (2) to identify the interaetions which allow these receptors to diseriminate between the two stereoisomers. (R)-Procyclidine showed a higher affinity for human neuroblastoma NB-OK 1 muscarinie M\(_1\) and rat striatum musearinie M\(_4\) receptors. a~ compared to rat cardiac M\(_2\) receptors. (S)-Procyclidine had a 130-iold lower affinity than (R)-procyclidine for M\(_1\) and M\(_4\) receptors. and a 40-fold lower affinity for M\(_2\) receptors. Pyrrinol. the aehiral diphenyl derivative with the eyclohexyl g.roup of (S}-procyclidine replaeed by a phenyl group, has an eight-fold lower affinity for M\(_1\) and M\(_4\) receptors. as eompared to (R)-procyclidine, and a three-fold lower affinity for M\(_2\) receptors. Hexahydro-procyclidine. the eorresponding achiral dicyclohexyl compound, had a 10- to 20-fold lower affinity than (R)-procyclidine for the three reeeptors. The inerease in binding free energy, which is observed when the phenyl and eyclohexyl groups of procyelidine are separately replaeed by cyclohexyJ and phenyl groups, respectively. was additive in the ease of M\(_1\)• M\(_2\) and M\(_4\) receptcrs. This indicates that the musearinic reeeptor s!ereoseleetivity was based on the eoexistence of two binding sites, one preferring a phenylrather than eyclohexyl group and the seeond preferring a cyclohexyl rather than a phenyl group. In addition. there were aiso binding sites for the hydroxy moiety and the protonated amino group of the ligands. The greater affinity and stereoselectivity of M\(_1\) and M\(_4\) muscarinic receptors for (R)-procyelidine reflected the better fit of the eyclohexyl group of (R)-procyclidine to the subsite of M\(_1\) and M\(_4\) as compared to M\(_2\) receptors.

The results indicate that only 50-ni volumes of injected tracer were sufficiently localized with 77 ± 9% recovery in the POM. Injections of higher volumes resulted in an increasing spread of tracer into distant anatomical regions and structures, including the needle tract and cerebral ventricles. The amount of tracer localized in the POM decreased to 38±4% (200 nl) (P < 0.05) and 41 ±8% (500 nl) (P <0.05), respectively. The data suggest that the volume of injection is critical for intraparenchymal injections into structures of a diameter of I mm or less, such as the POM and should not exceed 50 nl in conscious animal preparations.

T1 - Muscarinic receptor subtypes in rat pancreatic islets: binding and functional studies N2 - Cholinergie agents arepotent modulators of insulin release that aet via musearinie reeeptors. We now investigated the muscarinic receptor subtype present in rat panereatic islets in binding and funetional studies. Binding of 5 nM [ \(^3\)H]N-methylscopolamine ([\(^3\)H]NMS) was half maximal at 30 min. At 60 min, the maximal total bindingwas 1.29% and the non-specifie binding (presence of 100 ,uM atropine) was 0.18% of the total radioaetivity per 10 f.'g islet protein. Unlabelled atropine inhibited [\(^3\)H]NMS binding with an IC50 of ca. 30 nM. The rank order of antagonist high-affinity binding was atropine > sila-hexocyelium methyl sulfate (SiHC; M\(_1\) > M\(_3\) > M\(_2\) ) > pirenzepine (M\(_1\)> M\(_2\) = M\(_3\) ) = methoctramine (M\(_2\) > M\(_1\) > M\(_3\) ). The high-affinity K\(_d\)s were 8.5, 56, 1300 and 1300 nM, respectively. The high affinity Kd of the muscarinie receptor agonist, arecaidine propargyl ester (APE), was 8.1 nM. The EC\(_{50}\) for the biologieal effects of APE on insulin and glucagon secretion was 3.2 and 2.3 nM. The rank order for the high-affinity biological effects of antagonists (inhibition of APE-mediated insulin/ glucagon release) was almost the same as for binding. The data indicate that rat pancreatie islets contain neither an M\(_1\) subtype (high-affinity for pirenzepine) nor an M\(_2\) subtype (high-affinity for methoctramine) receptor. However, the data evidence an M\(_3\) receptor subtype, since SiHC in the absence of the M\(_1\) receptor subtype shows a relatively high affinity to the receptors in rat panereatic islets.

T1 - Effects of adhesins from mannose-resistant Escherichia coli on mediator release from human lymphocytes, monocytes and basophils and from polymorphonuclear granulo-cytes N2 - We investigated the roJe of Escherichia coU expressing mannose-resistant hemagglutination and adhesins with regard to the induction of leukotrienes from a suspension of human lymphocytes, monocytes, and basophils (LMBs) compared with human polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMNs). Genetically cloned E. coli strains expressing various types of mannose-resistant hemagglutination (MRH+) were phagocytosed to a higher degree by monocytes than the nonadherent E. coli strain. The various strains dUfered in their capacity to induce a chemiluminescence response, which showed the same pattern for LMBs and PMNs. Stimulation of LMBs with bacteria alone, unlike granulocytes, did not activate the cells for the release of leukotrienes. However, preincubation of LMBs with bacteria decreased subsequent leukotriene formation when the cells were stimulated with calcium ionophore. The inhibitory eft'ect was dependent on the concentration of bacteria used for preincubation as weil as on the preincubation temperature. The various bacterial strains dift'ered in inhibitory potency for mediator release. Preincubation of LMBs with zymosan, opsonized zymosan, the bacterfal peptide FMLP, and peptidoglycan bad no inhibitory eft'ect or even increased subsequent IeukotrieDe formation. Opsonized bacteria were far less inhibitory than nonopsonized bacteria. In contrast to human LMBs, preincubation of human PMNs with mannose-resistant bacteria led to increased leukotriene 84 generation and reduced w-oxidation of leukotriene 84 • Our data soggest that phagocytes (neutrophils, monocytes) respond in a different way for leukotriene formation after Interaction with mannose-resistant E. coli.
