H-D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Trp-Orn-Thr-Pen-Thr-NH2 (CTOP) exhibited high affinity (IC50 = 2.80 nM) in displacing [3H]naloxone binding (nH = 0.89 +/- 0.1) and showed an exceptional selectivity for mu opioid receptors with an IC50(DPDPE)/IC50(naloxone) ratio of 4,840, while it displayed very low affinity for somatostatin receptors (IC50 = 22,700 nM) in rat brain binding assays. [3H]CTOP was recently custom synthesized (spec. act.: 84 Ci/mmol) and evaluated for its in vitro binding properties towards the mu opioid receptors in rat brain membrane preparations. Association and dissociation of [3H]CTOP binding to mu opioid receptors were rapid at 25 degrees C with a kinetic Kd value of 0.67 nM. Saturation experiments gave apparent Kd value of 1.11 nM and Bmax value of 136 +/- 13 fmol/mg prot at 25 degrees C. Specific [3H]CTOP binding was inhibited by a number of different opioid and opiate ligands. Among them, putative mu opioid receptor-specific ligands, such as naloxone, naltrexone and CTOP inhibited the binding with high affinity, while delta opioid receptor-specific compounds or non-opioid drugs inhibited specific [3H]CTOP binding with low affinity or they were ineffective.

D011957 Receptors, Opioid Cell membrane proteins that bind opioids and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. The endogenous ligands for opioid receptors in mammals include three families of peptides, the enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins. The receptor classes include mu, delta, and kappa receptors. Sigma receptors bind several psychoactive substances, including certain opioids, but their endogenous ligands are not known.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D004745 Enkephalins One of the three major families of endogenous opioid peptides. The enkephalins are pentapeptides that are widespread in the central and peripheral nervous systems and in the adrenal medulla. Enkephalin
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013004 Somatostatin A 14-amino acid peptide named for its ability to inhibit pituitary GROWTH HORMONE release, also called somatotropin release-inhibiting factor. It is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, the gut, and other organs. SRIF can also inhibit the release of THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE; PROLACTIN; INSULIN; and GLUCAGON besides acting as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In a number of species including humans, there is an additional form of somatostatin, SRIF-28 with a 14-amino acid extension at the N-terminal.

D017450 Receptors, Opioid, mu A class of opioid receptors recognized by its pharmacological profile. Mu opioid receptors bind, in decreasing order of affinity, endorphins, dynorphins, met-enkephalin, and leu-enkephalin. They have also been shown to be molecular receptors for morphine.
