Dibenamine inhibited [$^{3}$H]quinuclidinyl benzilate ([$^{3}$H]QNB) binding in both concentration and incubation time-dependent manners. The $IC_{50}$/ value of dibenamine for the inhibition of the specific binding of 100 pM [$^{3}$'H]QNB following incubation of cerebral microsomes with dibenamine at 37.deg. C for 15 min was 20.mu.M. Dibenamine irreversibly decreased the binding site concentration for [$^{3}$H]QNB binding without affecting the affinity of [$^{3}$H]QNB for the muscarinic receptor. Analysis of the pirenzepine inhibition curve of [$^{3}$H]QNB binding to cerebral microsomes indicated the presence of two receptor subtypes with high(M$_{1}$ receptor, Ki=5nM) and low (M$_{2}$ receptor, Ki=160nM) affinity for pirenzepine. However, dibenamine(20.mu.M) treatment under the condition employed in these experiments caused steepening of the pirenzepine competition curve. The Ki value for pirenzepine in dibenamine treated-microsomes was approximately 120nM. suggesting a selective decrease in the number of M$_{1}$ receptor. Although dibenamine also inhibited [$^{3}$H]QNB binding to ventricular microsomes with $IC_{50}$/ value of 120.mu.M, the sensitivity for dibenamine in the ventricle was much lower than that in the cerebrum. These results indicate that dibenamine at low concentrations welectively inactivates the muscarinic M$_{1}$ receptor.

A single uniform population of specific, saturable, high affinity binding site of $[^3H]QNB$ guinuclidinyl benzilate(QNB) was identified in the rat cerebral microsomes. The Kd value(37.2 pM) for $[^3H]QNB$ calculated from the kinetically derived rate constants was in agreement with the Kd value(48.9 pM) determined by analysis of saturation isotherms at various receptor concentrations. Dimenhydrinate(DMH), histamine $H_1-blocker$, increased Kd value for $[^3H]QNB$ QNB without affecting the binding site concentrations and this effect resulted from the ability of DMH to slow $[^3H]QNB-receptor$ association. Pirenzepine inhibition curve of $[^3H]QNB$ binding was shallow(nH = 0.52) indicating the presence of two receptor subtypes with high ($M_1-site$) and low($M_2-site$) affinity for pirenzepine. Analysis of these inhibition curves yielded that 68% of the total receptor populations were of the $M_1-subtype$ and the remaining 32% of the $M_2-subtype$. Ki values for the $M_1-$ and $M_2-subtypes$ were 2.42 nM and 629.3 nM, respectively. Ki values for $H_1-blockers$ that inhibited $[^3H]QNB$ binding varied with a wide range ($0.02-2.5\;{\mu}M$). The Pseudo-Hill coefficients for inhibition of $[^3H]QNB$ binding by most of $H_1-blockers$ examined except for oxomemazine inhibition of $[^3H]QNB$ binding were close to one. The inhibition curve for oxomemazine in competition with $[^3H]QNB$ was shallow(nH = 0.74) indicating the presence of two receptor populations with different affinities for this drug. The proportion of high and low affinity was 33:67. The Ki values for oxomemazine were $0.045{\pm}0.016\;{\mu}M$ for high affinity and $1.145{\pm}0.232\;{\mu}M$ for low affinity sites. These data indicate that muscarinic receptor blocking potency of $H_1-blockers$ varies widely between different drugs and that most of $H_1-blockers$ examined are nonselective antagonist for the muscarinic receptor subtypes, whereas oxomemazine might be capable of distinguishing between subclasses of muscarinic receptor.

The muscarinic antagonist 1-[benzilic 4, 4'-$[^3H]$ QUINUCLIDINYL BENZILATE $([^3H]$ QNB) bound to a single class of muscarinic receptors with high affinity in rabbit ileal membranes. The $K_D\;and\;B_{ max}$ values for $([^3H]$ QNB calculated from analysis of saturation isotherms were 52.5 pM AND 154 fmol/mg, respectively. Chlopheniramine (CHP), histamine $H_1$ blocker, increased $K_D$ vlue for $([^3H]$QNB without affecting the binding site concentrations and Hill coefficient. The $K_i$ value of CHP for inhibition of $([^3H]$QNB binding in ileal membranes was 1.44\mu{M}$ and the pseudo-Hill coefficient for CHP was close to unit. In the functional assay carbachol, muscarinic agonist, increased the contractile force of ileum with $ED_{50}$ value of $0.11\mu{M}$. CHP caused the rightward shift of the dose-response curve to carbachol. The $pA_2$ value of CHP determined from Schild analysis of carbacholinduced contraction was 5.77 and the slope was unity indicating competitive antagonism with carbachol. The dissociation constant $(K_i)$ of CHP obtained in competitive experiments with $([^3H]$ QNB was similar to the $K_A$ value (1.69 \mu{M)}$ of CHP as inhibitor of carbachol induced contraction in rabbit ileum. This result suggest that the binding of $H_i$ blocker. CHP, vs $([^3H]$QNB to muscarinic receptors in ileal membranes represents an interaction with a receptor of physiological relevance.

$[^3H]$ Quinuclidinyl benzilate(QNB) binding assays were performed in the dog ventricular sarcolemma fraction enriched approx. 32-fold in sarcolemma compared to the starting homogenate to elucidate the effect of antihistaminics on cardiac muscarinic receptor. Chlorpheniramine(CHP) inhibited specific binding of $[^3H]$QNB and delayed the equilibrium binding. The rate constants at $37^{\circ}C$ for formation and dissociation of the QNB receptor complex were $0.38{\times}10^9\;M^{-1}$ and $1.6{\times}10^{-2}\;min^{-1}$, respectively. The mean value for the dissociation constant from the pairs of the rate constants was 43. 2 pM and this value was similar to the value(44.8pM) determined from Scatchard analysis. CHP decreased association rate constant, indicating increase in $K_D$ value. Decrease in affinity without affecting the binding site concentration$(B_{max})$ for $[^3H]$QNB binding by CHP was also demonstrated by Scatchard analysis. $K_i$ values for $H_i$-blockers that inhibited specific $[^3H]$QNB binding were $0.02{\sim}4.8{\mu}M$. Cimetidine with $K_i$ value of $230{\mu}M$, however, was ineffective in displacing $[^3H]$QNB binding at concentration of $50{\mu}M$. The Hill coefficient for $H_1$-blockers were about one. The results indicate that $H_1$-antihistaminics inhibit $[^3H]$ QNB binding by interaction with myocardiac muscarinic cholinergic receptor and anticholinergic side effects of these drugs are mainly due to this receptor blocking mechanism.

중추신경계 특히 뇌내(腦內)의 무수카린성 콜린 수용체 (mAchR)에 대한 수용체 특성의 연구의 하나로, 물리 화학적 성상에 다른 두 종류의 콜린길항제를 사용하여 서로 다른 두 형태의 조직에서 약물의 작용양상 및 다른 약물과의 상호작용을 정초하였다. 실험동물로는 흰쥐를 일정기간 규정사료를 사육하였고, 사용한 Radioactive ligands는 $(^3H)$ QNB와 $(^3H)$ NMS였으며 그외에 다른 수종의 길항제 또는 효능제와의 치환작용을 brain homogenates와 intact brain cell aggregates에서 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. $(^3H)$ QNB와 $(^3H)$ NMS는 모두 질량작용의 법칙에 비례하여 수용체와의 결합에서 높은 친화력과 포화를 보였으며 또한 높은 결합 능력을 나타내었다. 더욱이 homogenates 제제와 intact cell aggregates제제에서의 결과 사이에는 유사한 점이 많았다. 2. Homogenates제제를 사용한 실험에서, 제 3 급아민콜린길항제인 QNB, atropine과 scopolamine 또는 제 4 급 암모늄골린 길항제인 methylatropine과 methylscopolamine을 사용하여 위의 radioactive ligands와의 치환작용을 검토하였다. $(^3H)$ NMS 실험군에서는 제 3 급아민 및 제 4 급 암모늄길항제 모두가 구조의 구별없이 질량작용의 법칙에 따라 치환되었으나 $(^3H)$ QNB 실험군에서는 제 4급 암모늄콜린 길항제들을 단일성(unity)이 아닌 높고 낮은 두 종류의 친화도를 가진 결합부위의 양상을 나타내었다. 또 비특이성 콜린길항제인 pirenzepine을 사용한 실험군에서는 두 ligands을 모두 치환시켰고 서로 다른 결합부위가 있음을 보였다. 3. Intact cell aggregates 제제를 사용한 실험에서, $(^3H)$ NMS와 $(^3H)$ QNB 모두 homogenates 제제에서와 같은 양상의 반응을 보였다. 또 $(^3H)$ NMS를 radioligand로 하여 수종의 콜린길항제와 수종의 콜린 효능제를 사용하여 약물 상호작용으로 수용체의 성질을 검토하였다. 그 결과 콜린 길항제들은 질량작용의 법칙에 따라 치환되었으나 콜린 효능제 투여군에서는 높고 낮은 두 종류의 다른 친화력의 결항부위를 나타내었다. 4. 위의 실험의 결과로,(a) 친유성콜린 길항제인 $(^3H)$ QNB는 친수성 콜린길항제인 $(^3H)$ NMS보다 훨씬 높은 결합능력을 보였으며 이것으로 수용체 특히 mAchR의 존재 장소 또는 mAchR의 형상의 일부는 세포막 표면 뿐 아니라 세포막내의 어떤 부위와도 관계가 되는 것으로 간주되는데 이것이 $(^3H)$ QNB가 $(^3H)$ NMS보다 높은 최대 결합능력 $(B_{max})$을 나타낼 이유이다. (b) 두 종류의 다른 제제에서 우리는 같은 양상의 결과를 관찰하었기에 결점이 많은 homogenates 제제보다는 intact cell aggregates 제제를 수용체 연구에 대한 새로운 실험모형(experiment model)으로 사용할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고자 한다.

The nature of the muscarinic receptors in bovine adrenal medulla was investigated in this study. [$^3$H]Quinuclidinyl benzilate(QNB) specifically bound to a single class of muscarinic receptor with a $K_{D}$ value of about 70 pM in bovine adrenal medullary, cardiac ventricular and ileal homogenates. Pirenzepine inhibition curves of [$^3$H]QNB binding to cardiac ventricular and ileal homogenates were steep, indicating the presence of a single class of binding site for pirenzepine with a Ki value of 990 nM and 508 nM, respectively. However, pirenzepine/[$^3$H]QNB competition binding curves in adrenal medulla suggested the presence of two binding sites (Hill coefficient=0.59) with a high( $M_1$) and a low( $M_2$) affinity. Respective Ki values for pirenfepine were 16 nM and 633 nM, with 44% of total sites having a high affinity( $M_1$). Gallamine, which is selective to cardiac $M_2$-receptor, inhibited [$^3$H]QNB binding to adrenal medullary, cardiac ventricular and ileal homogenates with Ki values of 12 $\mu$M, 6 $\mu$M and 13 $\mu$M, respectively. Thus, the binding affinities of pirenzepine and gallamine for $M_2$-receptor in adrenal medulla were similar to those in ileum, which contains the $M_3$-receptor. These results indicate that the $M_1$- and $M_3$- muscarinic receptor subtypes coexist in the bovine adrenal medulla.a.

Oxomemazine이 muscarinic receptor subtypes에 대하여 선택성을 가지는지에 관한 지견을 얻고자, 대뇌, 심실 및 회장 muscarinic receptor에 대한 oxomemazine의 결합성질을 조사, 비교하였다. $[^3H]QNB$ 포화결합실험 결과 세 조직의 muscarinic receptor는 $[^3H]QNB$에 대해서는 affinity가 약 60pM인 단일 receptor인 것으로 추정되었다. 대뇌에서 pirenzepine과 oxomemazine의 $[^3H]QNB$ 결합억제에 대한 Hill coefficient는 각각 0.67 및 0.8로서 대뇌에는 이들 약물에 대하여 affinity가 서로 다른 두 종류의 muscarinic receptor subtypes가 존재하는 것으로 나타났으며, pirenzepine에 대한 high $affinity(M_1)$와 $low affinity(M_2)$ receptor 및 oxomemazine에 대한 high $affinity(O_H)$와 $low\;affinity (O_L)$ receptor의 분포비는 약 60:40 및 40:60이었고, $M_1$과 $M_2$ receptor에 대한 pirenzepine의 $K_i$치는 16nM 및 431 nM, $O_H$와 $O_L$, receptor에 대한 oxomemazine 의 $K_i$치는 80nM 및 1350nM이었다. 그러나 심실과 회장에서 이들 약물의 $[^3H]QNB$ 결합억제에 대한 Hill coefficient는 1에 가까웠다. 심실과 회장 muscarinic receptor에 대한 pirenzepine의 $K_i$치는 850nM 및 250nM, oxomemazine의 $K_i$치는 1460nM 및 670nM로서 대피에서 이들 약물의 low affinity receptor에 대한 $K_i$치에 가까웠다. 즉, muscarinic receptor에 대한 affinity면에서 oxomemazine은 pirenzepine과 같이 대뇌에서 가장 높았으며, 회장에 대해서는 중등도였고, 심실에서 가장 낮았다. 이로 보아 oxomemazine은 $M_1\;receptor$에 선택성이 있는 것으로 추정된다.

The muscarinic antagonist l-[benzilic-4,4'-$^3H$]quinuclidinyl benzilate([$^3H$]QNB) bound to a single class of muscarinic receptor with high affinity in guinea pig ileal membranes. The $K_{D}$ and B$_{max}$ values for [$^3H$]QNB calculated from analysis of saturation isotherms were 54 pM and 156fmol/mg, respectively. H$_{1}$-blockers inhibited [$^3H$]QNB binding to ileal membranes with $K_{i}$ values ranged from 0.008 $\mu{M}$ to 1.6 $\mu{M}$. The pseudo-Hill coefficients of H$_{1}$-blockers for inhibition of [$^3H$]QNB binding to the ileal membranes were close to unit. The $K_{i}$ values for H$_{1}$-blockers were similar to the $K_{M}$ values calculated by Schild plot of functional data obtained from inhibition of the carbachol-induced contraction in guinea-pig ileum, suggesting that binding of H$_{1}$-blockers vs [$^3H$]QNB in ileal membranes represents an interaction with a receptor of physiological relevance. The $K_{H}$ values of H$_{1}$-blockers for H$_{1}$-receptor estimated from inhibition of the histamine-induced contraction were the range of 0.15 nM to 56.5 nM. The $K_{M}$/K$_{H}$ ratio of H$_{1}$-blockers varied over a wide range of 3 to 2300. Thus, the antihistaminic potencies of H$_{1}$-blockers do not correlate with their antimuscarinic potencies, which suggest that antihistamines have different antimuscarinic potencies in therapeutic blood levels causing similar antiallergic effect. Among 13 traditional antihistaminics examined in this study, drug having the highest and the lowest $K_{M}$/K$_{H}$ ratio is triprolidine and diphenidol, respectively. The present results demonstrate that the antimuscarinic property of antihistamines is not necessary for their antiallergic effect, and data on the affinity of antihistamines for muscarinic and H$_{1}$-receptors can be an important parameter in the selection and evaluation of these drugs.

The affinity of mequitazine, a non-sedating antihistamine, for muscarinic receptors was evaluated in the guinea-pig ventricle and ileum by in vitro binding techniques and functional studies. In binding studies, [$^3$H]quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB) identified a single class of muscarinic receptors with similar apparent $K_{D}$ value of about 100 pM in two tissues. Mequitazine inhibited [$^3$H]QNB binding to muscarinic receptors competitively. Analysis of the mequitazine inhibition curve of [$^3$H]QNB binding to ventricular microsome and ileal homogenate indicated the presence of a single homogeneous binding site with Ki value of 25 nM and 18 nM, respectively. In functional studies, mequitazine caused parallel rightward shifts of concentration-response curves for carbachol and histamine in the isolated guinea-pig ileum. The slope values obtained from Schild plot analysis for the antagonistic action of mequitazine on muscarinic and histamine $H_1$-receptors were not significantly different from unity. The p $A_2$values of mequitazine for muscarinic and histamine $H_1$-receptors were about 7.6 ( $K_{M}$= 25.1 nM) and 8.88 ( $K_{H}$= 1.32 nM), respectively. These results indicate that the muscarinic receptor blocking action of mequitazine is 15 times less potent than the $H_1$receptor blocking action, but high concentration of this drug may cause the peripheral muscarinic receptor blocking effect.t.t.t.

The binding characteristics of pirenzepine and oxomemazine to muscarinic receptor were studied to evaluate the selectivity of oxomemazine for the muscarinic receptor subtypes in rat cerebral microsomes. Equililbrium dissociation constant $(K_D){\;}of{\;}(-)[^3H]$quinuclidinyl benzilate$([^3H)QNB)$ determined from saturation isotherms was 64-pM. Analysis of the pirenzepine inghibition curve of [$^3H$]QNB binding to cerebral microsome indicatd the presence of two receptor subtypes with high $(K_1 = 16 nM, M_1 receptor)$two receptor subypes with about 20-fold difference in the affinity for high $(k_1 = 84nM, {\;} O_H receptor){\;} and {\;}low{\;} (K_1{\;} ={\;} 1.65\muM, {\;} O_L receptor$) affinity sites. The percentage populations of $M_1{\;} and M_3$, /TEX> receptors to the total receptors were 61 : 39, and those of $O_H{\;} and{\;} O_L$ receptors 39 : 61, resepectively. Both pirenzepine and oxomemazine increaed the $K_D$ value for $[^3H]QNB$ without affecting the binding site concentrations and Hii coefficient for the $[^3H]QNB$ without affecting the binding site concentractions and Hill coefficient for the [$^{3}$H]QNB binding. Oxomemazine had a 10-fold higher affinity at $M_1$ receptors than at $M_3$ receptors, and pirenzepine a 8-fold higher affinity at $O_H$ receptors were of $O_H$ receptors and 71% of $M_3$ receptors. However, $M_3$for oxomemazine and $O_H$for pirenzepine were composed of a uniform population. These results suggest that oxomemazine could be classified as a selective drug for $M_1$ receptors and also demonstrate that rat cerebral microsomes contain three different subtypes of $M_1{\;} M_3$ and the other site which is different from $M_1, {\;} M_2$, /TEX> receptors.
