To characterize directly the ability of cholecystokinin (CCK) to interact with receptors on the sphincter of Oddi (SO), we measured binding of 125I-labeled Bolton-Hunter-labeled COOH-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (125I-BH-CCK-8) to tissue sections from the guinea pig SO. Autoradiography localized binding of 125I-BH-CCK-8 over the SO smooth muscle layer. Binding was saturable, specific, dependent on time, pH, and temperature, and was reversible. Binding of 125I-BH-CCK-8 was inhibited by various CCK receptor agonists with the following potencies: CCK-8 much greater than des(SO3)CCK-8 much greater than gastrin-17-I and by various CCK receptor antagonists with the following potencies: L-364,718 greater than proglumide analogue 10 much greater than carbobenzoxy-Tyr(SO3H)-Met-Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-NH2 greater than N2,O2' dibutyryl guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate. The potencies of agonists in stimulating and of antagonists in inhibiting CCK-8-stimulated SO contractions correlated closely with their abilities to inhibit binding of 125I-BH-CCK-8. Analysis of binding of 125I-BH-CCK-8 to SO tissue sections revealed two classes of CCK binding sites: a high-affinity site [dissociation constant (Kd) 0.2 nM] and a low-affinity site (Kd 70 nM). Atropine or tetrodotoxin (TTX) caused a similar rightward shift of the CCK-8 dose-response curve for stimulation of SO contraction. Comparison of receptor occupation to CCK-8-induced contraction suggested that CCK-8 occupation of the high-affinity binding site correlated with contraction in the absence of atropine and the low-affinity CCK binding with contraction in the presence of atropine or TTX.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D009119	Muscle Contraction	A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

D009130	Muscle, Smooth	Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei. Smooth muscle fibers are bound together into sheets or bundles by reticular fibers and frequently elastic nets are also abundant.

D009803	Sphincter of Oddi	The sphincter of the hepatopancreatic ampulla within the duodenal papilla. The COMMON BILE DUCT and main pancreatic duct pass through this sphincter.	Oddi's Sphincter,Oddi Sphincter,Oddis Sphincter,Sphincter, Oddi's
D011949	Receptors, Cholecystokinin	Cell surface proteins that bind cholecystokinin (CCK) with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Cholecystokinin receptors are activated by GASTRIN as well as by CCK-4; CCK-8; and CCK-33. Activation of these receptors evokes secretion of AMYLASE by pancreatic acinar cells, acid and PEPSIN by stomach mucosal cells, and contraction of the PYLORUS and GALLBLADDER. The role of the widespread CCK receptors in the central nervous system is not well understood.
