    Abstract:
    [3H]L-365,260, [(3R-(+)-2,3-dihydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1H-1,4- benzodiazepin-3-yl)-N'-(3-methylphenyl)urea], a new potent and selective nonpeptide brain cholecystokinin (CCK-B) and gastrin receptor antagonist, bound saturably and reversibly to guinea pig brain membranes. Scatchard analysis indicated a single class of high affinity (Kd = 2.3 nM) binding sites. The binding of [3H]L-365,260 was stereospecific, because unlabeled L-365,260 (an R-enantiomer) was approximately 100 times more potent than its S-enantiomer in displacing binding. The relative potencies of various CCK/gastrin-related peptides and nonpeptide peripheral CCK-A antagonists in displacing [3H]L-365,260 brain binding correlated with their potencies in displacing the binding of 125I-CCK to brain receptors but not their potencies in displacing the peripherally selective CCK-A ligand [3H]L-364,718 from pancreatic receptors. The regional distribution of [3H]L-365,260 binding in various brain areas correlated with 125I-CCK binding. Specific [3H]L-365,260 binding to guinea pig brain membranes was reduced by omission of NaCl but was not affected by omission of MgCl2 or addition of guanosine 5'-(beta-gamma-imido)triphosphate or various pharmacological agents known to interact with other common peptide and nonpeptide receptor systems. [3H]L-365,260 also bound in a specific manner to guinea pig gastric glands but only negligibly to guinea pig or rat pancreas. The binding of [3H]L-365,260 to gastric glands was inhibited by CCK/gastrin antagonists with potencies similar to those for inhibition of 125I-gastrin binding in this tissue. Collectively, the data indicates that [3H]L-365,260 represents a new potent nonpeptide antagonist radioligand suitable for the study of brain CCK-B and gastrin receptors.
