Article Description

Binding of [ 3 H]dihydroergokryptine and [ 3 H]dihydroalprenolol to membrane preparations from rat submaxillary gland was measured to characterize the α- and β-adrenergic receptors, respectively. Kinetic analysis of the data revealed a high affinity binding site for each radioligand. Inhibition of binding at each site was stereospecific for the active isomer of the catecholamine used. The greater ability of a β 1 and β 2 specific β-adrenergic antagonist to displace [ 3 H]dihydroalprenolol binding indicated that this binding site was of teh β 1 type.
