Binding characteristics of 3H-Substance P (SP) were studied with rat brain membranes using a method applied to peripheral tissues by Lee and Snyder [15]. This method was well applicable to central nervous system (CNS) tissues. The results in the present study indicate that specific 3H-SP binding reaches a plateau only after 20 minutes of incubation, and the binding sites are saturable at a relatively low concentration of 3H-SP. Scatchard analysis of specific binding data reveals a single class of binding sites with a high affinity (Kd = 0.30 nM) and a low density (Bmax = 27.7 fmol/mg protein) in rat brain membranes. A Hill plot of the displacement curve of 3H-SP with unlabelled SP showed no indication for cooperativity (nH = 0.83). The relative potencies of binding of various SP fragments at 3H-SP binding sites were fairly parallel to the length of the C-terminal fragments. Neurotransmitters not structurally related to SP produced no effect on 3H-SP binding even when used at micromolar concentrations.

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

D017981 Receptors, Neurotransmitter Cell surface receptors that bind signalling molecules released by neurons and convert these signals into intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Neurotransmitter is used here in its most general sense, including not only messengers that act to regulate ion channels, but also those which act on second messenger systems and those which may act at a distance from their release sites. Included are receptors for neuromodulators, neuroregulators, neuromediators, and neurohumors, whether or not located at synapses.
