    Abstract:
    We describe here the properties of tert-butyloxycarbonyl-Trp-Leu-Asp-Phe-NHNH2 (A-57696), a C-terminal hydrazide analogue of tert-butyloxycarbonyl-CCK4 (Boc-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2), at four cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor-bearing tissues, the guinea pig pancreas and gall bladder (Type A), guinea pig cortex (Type B), and NCI-H345 cells, a human small cell lung cancer cell line that expresses CCK-B/gastrin receptors. Using 125I-Bolton-Hunter-cholecystokinin octapeptide (26-33) (125I-Bolton-Hunter-CCK8) as the radioligand, A-57696 was found to be selective for cortical CCK-B receptors (IC50 = 25 nM), compared with pancreatic CCK-A receptors (IC50 = 15 microM). A-57696 behaved as a competitive antagonist in reversing CCK8-stimulated pancreatic amylase secretion and phosphoinositide breakdown. By Schild analysis, its Kd was determined to be 4.7 and 6.8 microM in amylase and phosphoinositide assays, respectively. A-57696 (100 microM) did not elicit gall bladder contraction, and it inhibited contractions induced by CCK8. The Kd of A-57696 at gall bladder CCK-A receptors was 19 microM. In contrast, A-57696 behaved as a partial agonist (80% of maximal CCK8 response) in stimulating calcium mobilization at CCK-B/gastrin receptors on NCI-H345 cells. A-57696 and CCK8 inhibited each other in calcium mobilization experiments utilizing the fluorescent dye Indo-1. Stimulatory actions of CCK8 and A-57696 were reversed by the CCK-B-selective (R)-L-365,260 (100 nM), whereas at the same concentration, the CCK-A-selective (S)-L-365,260 was ineffective. Binding studies using 125I-Bolton-Hunter-CCK8 and 125I-gastrin indicated that binding sites labeled by these two ligands displayed similar affinities for CCK8, desulfated CCK8, gastrin, A-57696, and both enantiomers of L-365,260. A-57696 represents a new class of CCK-A peptide antagonist at guinea pig pancreas a new class of CCK-A peptide antagonist at guinea pig pancreas and gall bladder. Its contrasting functional activities at guinea pig CCK-A and CCK-B/gastrin receptors in a human tumor cell demonstrate that, in addition to the previously described differences in binding specificity for selective agonists and antagonists, CCK-A receptors and CCK-B/gastrin receptors have different requirements for activation.
