The effects of agonists of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor can be blocked by dissociative anesthetics such as phencyclidine (PCP) in a non-competitive manner. This finding together with the fact that ligand binding to the PCP receptor is dependent on the presence of L-glutamate has led to the suggestion that there may exist an NMDA/PCP receptor complex in mammalian brain tissue. This concept has been extended to the inclusion of a cation channel based on the inhibitory actions of the divalent cation, magnesium. Evaluation of the binding of tritiated TCP (thienylcyclohexylpiperidine) a high affinity ligand for the PCP receptor, under four conditions: in basal, well washed rat cortical membranes; in the presence of L-glutamate; in the presence of magnesium; and in the presence of both magnesium and L-glutamate, with NMDA antagonists and dissociative anesthetics showed that these agents had distinct profiles of activity at the PCP receptor. Furthermore, while both classes of compound could modulate TCP binding, only NMDA receptor antagonists inhibited the binding of tritiated CPP (3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propyl-1-phosphonic acid) which labels central NMDA recognition sites. The present data support the existence of an NMDA/PCP receptor complex in mammalian brain tissue. The data currently available would suggest however, that the interface is sequentially NMDA to PCP with the latter site affecting NMDA-mediated responses at a step intermediate between receptor activation and physiological response.

It has recently been demonstrated that glycine can potentiate several measures of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-induced channel opening, including radioligand binding to the PCP receptor. These data suggest that the NMDA/PCP receptor complex may be allosterically modulated by a binding site for glycine. We report here that several other monocarboxylic amino acids enhance NMDA-induced [3H]TCP binding and displace [3H]glycine binding with similar apparent affinities and stereoisomerism. The results are discussed with relation to the structural requirements for compounds to bind to this site.

An organizing role for the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor/channel has been suggested in the development of the retinotectal projection in Rana pipiens. The regional distributions of NMDA, phencyclidine (PCP) and quisqualic acid (QA) receptors were quantified using in vitro autoradiography in the tectum of normal and surgically produced 3-eyed juvenile frogs. NMDA and QA receptor binding was highest in the pretectum. Of the tectal layers, the superficial retinotectal synaptic zone, layer 9, had the highest amount of NMDA and QA receptor binding. Moderate binding was observed in layer 5, with little binding in the cellular layer 6. No specific [3H]N-(1-[2-thienyl]cyclohexyl) piperidine ([3H]TCP) binding was observed in any of the tectal regions.

The distribution of [3H]glycine binding sites was compared with that of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors labelled with L-[3H]glutamate, and with that of phencyclidine (PCP) receptors labelled with [3H]1-(1-(2-thienyl)-cyclohexyl)piperidine ([3H]TCP) in sections from 7 normal human hippocampi. The results indicate that strychnine-insensitive glycine binding sites are present in high concentrations in CA1 and the molecular layer of the dentate gyrus. This distribution is very similar to the distributions of NMDA and PCP receptors in the human hippocampus.

Rapid vacuum filtration assays were used to quantitate radioligand binding to phencyclidine (PCP), N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), and strychnine-insensitive glycine receptors in a simple buffy coat preparation of rat cortical membranes. KD and Bmax values for [3H]glycine binding were very similar to those previously reported by workers who used centrifugation for the separation of free and bound [3H]glycine. We also found that this preparation had a high percentage of NMDA-displaceable L-[3H]glutamate binding sites, which demonstrated a pharmacology very similar to that previously observed in more purified synaptic plasma membranes. Hill analysis of the displacement curves indicated that glutamate bound to a single class of sites, but that NMDA and NMDA antagonists may interact with this site in a negatively cooperative fashion. This preparation was also found to be suitable for the study of NMDA and glycine receptor regulation of the associated ion channel, as these effectors, alone and in combination, increased the affinity with which [3H]TCP bound to the PCP receptor believed to be located within the ion channel. Thus, the ability to measure radioligand binding to these three sites in the same simple membrane preparation should greatly facilitate the study of the interaction between them.

Pretreatment of guinea pig brain membranes with 1-[1-(3-isothiocyanatophenyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine (Metaphit) caused irreversible and differential inhibition of ligand binding to sigma (sigma) receptors. The concentration of Metaphit required to produce 50% inhibition of binding of [3H]1,3-di-o-tolylguanidine ([3H]DTG), [3H](+)-3-(3-hydroxy-phenyl)-N-(1-propyl)piperidine ([3H](+)-3-PPP), and [3H](+)-N-allylnormetazocine ([3H](+)-SKF 10,047) to sigma receptors was 2, 10 and 50 microM, respectively. This compares to a value of 10 microM for inhibition of [3H]1-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine [( 3H]TCP) binding to phencyclidine (PCP) receptors. While Metaphit was an irreversible, non-competitive inhibitor at PCP receptors, this compound produced irreversible, competitive inhibition at sigma receptors.

Among other properties, phencyclidine (PCP) and analogues display anaesthetic and anticonvulsant properties. Interaction of PCP and some analogues with the voltage-sensitive Na+ channels have been investigated and compared with their interaction with the PCP receptor. PCP and TCP inhibit apparently in a competitive manner the veratridine stimulated 22Na+ synaptosomal uptake with Ki values of 8.6 and 12.7 microM, respectively, close to those obtained in the inhibition of [3H]BTX-B binding (IC50 = 4.1 and 3.8 microM, respectively). The specific [3H]TCP binding to synaptosomes in ionic near physiological conditions is inhibited by PCP and TCP with IC50 values of 1.25 and 0.29 microM, respectively. Other PCP derivatives (GK3 and GK4) and PCP-like drugs (ketamine and MK801) inhibit 22Na+ uptake in an order of potency (GK3 greater than GK4 greater than PCP greater than TCP greater than MK801 greater than ketamine) which is different from that obtained in the inhibition of [3H]TCP binding (MK801 greater than TCP greater than PCP greater than ketamine greater than GK4 greater than GK3). Ketamine inhibits the veratridine-stimulated Na+ uptake at a concentration where its anesthetic effect occurs. It was concluded that the interaction of these drugs with the Na+ channel may reflect their anaesthetic properties while the interaction with the PCP receptors may be mainly related to their anticonvulsant and ataxic properties.

A phencyclidine (PCP) receptor binding site has been solubilized in an active ligand-binding state from rat cerebral cortical membranes with sodium deoxycholate. Optimal receptor solubilization occurs at a detergent/protein ratio of 0.5 (w/w); for 5 mg protein/ml solubilized with 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, about 60% of the protein and 25% of the receptor is solubilized. Specific binding of either [3H]-N-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine ([3H]TCP) or [3H]MK-801 is measurable by filtration through Sephadex G-50 columns or glass fiber filters; more than 60% of the binding activity is stable after 48 h at 4 degrees C. In the presence of detergent, [3H]TCP binding exhibits a Kd of 250 nM, a Bmax of 0.56 pmol/mg protein, and a pharmacological profile consistent with that of the membrane-bound PCP receptor, although most drugs bind with affinities 2 to 8 fold lower than in membranes. Upon reduction of detergent concentration, binding parameters approximate those for the membrane-bound receptor ([3H]TCP binding: Kd = 48 nM, Bmax = 1.13 pmol/mg protein).

Results of correlation analyses comparing rank-order affinities with rank-order potencies of (+)SKF-10,047, phencyclidine (PCP), and several PCP analogs support the involvement of [3H]-1-[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine binding sites (TCP sites) in mediating both the discriminative stimulus properties of PCP and production of 180 degrees perseveration in a 4-arm radial maze. For the same group of drugs, no significant relationship was found to exist between affinities at haloperidol-sensitive (+)[3H]SKF-10,047 binding sites (H-S-SKF sites) and potencies. Also, H-S-SKF sites were found to lack pharmacological selectivity and to be localized in the microsomal fraction of cells. It is concluded that TCP sites may represent receptors which mediate effects not only of PCP, but also of (+)SKF-10,047. In addition, the possibility that H-S-SKF sites may represent a type of membrane-bound enzyme is discussed.

Thirty-seven arylcyclohexylamines including phencyclidine (PCP) and derivatives, N[1-(2-thienyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine (TCP) and derivatives and N-[1-(2-benzo(b)thiophenyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine (BTCP) were assessed for their ability to inhibit [3H]PCP binding and [3H]dopamine ([3H]DA) synaptosomal uptake. Their pharmacological property (ataxia) was measured by means of the rotarod test. A very good correlation was observed between the inhibition of [3H]PCP binding and the [3H]DA uptake only for arylcyclohexylamines bearing an unmodified phenyl group. Conversely the comparison between the inhibition of [3H]PCP binding and the activity in the rotarod test shows a good correlation with arylcyclohexylamines having any aromatic group (phenyl, substituted phenyl and thienyl rings). This study outlined a new compound (BTCP) without ataxic effect, which is one of the more potent inhibitors of the [3H]DA uptake (IC50 = 8 nM) and which seems very specific since it has a low affinity for [3H]PCP receptors (IC50 = 6 microM). These data show that the aromatic group of the compounds leads to molecules that bind differently to the PCP receptor and to the DA uptake complex. They also suggest that the behavioral properties of arylcyclohexylamines revealed by the rotarod test occur essentially as a result of an interaction with the sites labeled with [3H]PCP and that TCP is more selective than PCP itself in this recognition.
