R. Kaufmann et al., COMPARATIVE H-3 CCK-8S BINDING-STUDIES ON CCKB-TYPE RECEPTORS IN GUINEA-PIG CORTEX AND CONTINUOUS CELL-LINES, Neuropeptides, 26(6), 1994, pp. 429-433
The present study was undertaken to compare binding characteristics of
CCKB-type receptors in guinea-pig cortex, Jurkat T-cells, GH3 cells a
nd C-6 cells. The rank order of potency of a variety of CCK agonists a
nd antagonists in inhibiting specific [H-3]CCK-8S binding was highly c
orrelated for the 4 CCKB receptor models as demonstrated by a computer
-assisted statistical analysis. Taking the ligand binding profiles as
the criterion it is concluded that CCKB receptors in guinea-pig cortex
, Jurkat T-cells, pituitary GH3 cells and rat glioma C-6 cells share i
dentical pharmacological properties.
