ABSTRACT
The Kd values of the multiple agonist binding sites in cardiac muscarinic receptors (mAChR) and pD2 values for negative inotropic actions were determined independently and their relation was examined. The guinea-pig cardiac mAChR is known to have three agonist binding sites (super-high (SH), high (H) and low (L) affinity agonist binding sites) for carbachol (CCh). Pilocarpine (Pilo) and oxotremorine (Oxo) distinguished two sites (higher (Ho/p) with pKd of 5.88 and 8.20, respectively, and lower (Lo/p) affinity agonist binding sites with pKd of 5.08 and 6.17, respectively). The effects of guanine nucleotide and sulfhydryl reagent indicated that the Ho/p site corresponded with the SH site for carbachol, and the Lo/p site with the H + L sites for carbachol. The pD2 values of CCh, Pilo and Oxo for negative inotropic actions on autocontraction of right atria were 5.38, 5.30 and 6.80, respectively. The pD2 values of CCh and Oxo on electrically stimulated contraction of left atria in the presence of isoproterenol were 5.80 and 6.46, respectively, thus being closely related to H or Lo/p agonist binding sites of mAChR.
