In vivo receptor labeling of peripheral benzodiazepine receptor by ex vivo binding of [3H]PK11195.
1999
: In vivo receptor labeling of the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor was investigated using ex vivo binding of [3H]-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-methyl-N-(1-methylpropyl)-3-isoquinoline-carb ox-amide ([3H]PK11195). In autoradiographic studies, high level specific binding of [3H]PK11195 was observed in the olfactory bulb. Intravenous administration of PK11195 dose-dependently (0.03-3 mg/kg) inhibited ex vivo binding of [3H]PK11195 in the olfactory bulb. Likewise, N-(2,5-dimethoxybenzyl)-N-(5-fluoro-2-phenoxyphenyl)acetamide (DAA1106), a newly identified peripheral benzodiazepine receptor-specific ligand, dose-dependently (0.1-100 mg/kg) reduced ex vivo binding of [3H]PK11195, when administered intraperitoneally. In contrast, clonazepam, a central benzodiazepine receptor-specific agonist, had negligible effects on ex vivo binding of [3H]PK11195. We propose that the ex vivo receptor binding technique we used will facilitate determination of in vivo receptor occupancy of the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor.
