The binding kinetics, pharmacologic properties, ontogeny and localization of L-glutamate binding sites were studied in membrane preparations and sections of normal and olivopontocerebellar atrophy (OPCA) human cerebellum. One binding component was found with a Kd value in the order of 150 x 10(-9) M. No significant changes of Kd values were observed with age, whereas the highest Bmax value was observed at the age of 1 year. L-Aspartate, ibotenate, quisqualate and L-homocysteic acid were potent inhibitors of L-[3H]glutamate binding. Quantitative densitometric measurements indicated the presence of L-glutamate sites in both the molecular and granule cell layer. In OPCA cerebella a very significant decrease of L-[3H]glutamate specific binding (Bmax) was observed, whereas Kd values were found unchanged. The pharmacologic properties of L-[3H]glutamate binding sites of OPCA cerebellar tissues were similar to those of normal cerebellum. [3H]quinuclidinyl benzylate binding, expressed in fmol/mg protein, did not show significant differences between normal and OPCA cerebella.
