摘要：Sodium ion (Na+) influences binding of both dopamine agonists and antagonists to D2 receptors in striatum and retina. Also, Na+ markedly potentiates the loss of high-affinity agonist binding due to the GTP analogue p[NH]ppG. 2-Amino-6, 7-dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro[5,8-3H]naphthalene ([3H]ADTN) binds exclusively to an agonist conformation of D2 receptor in both striatum and retina, distinct from the antagonist conformation labeled by [3H]spiroperidol or [3H]domperidone in striatum or by [3H]spiroperidol in retina. Na+ is not required for interaction of [3H]ADTN or antagonist radioligand sites with the selective D2 agonist LY-141865, the D2 antagonist domperidone, or nonselective dopamine agonists or antagonists; however, Na+ is necessary for high affinity interaction of those radioligand sites with the D2 antagonists molindone and metoclopramide. With Na+ present, striatal sites for [3H]ADTN, [3H]spiroperidol, and [3H]domperidone have similar affinities for antagonists but only [3H]ADTN sites have high affinity for agonists. Na+ further decreases the low affinity of dopamine agonists for [3H]spiroperidol binding sites. Also, Na+ enhances [3H]spiroperidol and decreases [3H]ADTN binding. Na+ alone causes bound [3H]ADTN to dissociate from at least 30% of striatal and 50% of retinal sites, and with Na+ present [3H]ADTN rapidly dissociates from the remaining sites upon addition of p[NH]ppG. It is proposed that D2 receptors in striatum and retina exist in distinct but interconvertible conformational states, with different properties depending on the presence or absence of Na+ and of guanine nucleotide.
