Binding of [3H]leukotriene C4 and D4 to guinea-pig lung sections was characterised and binding sites were localized by autoradiography. Both leukotrienes bound to guinea-pig lung sections and membranes with high affinity and with similar characteristics to binding in a membrane preparation. Autoradiography revealed that the distribution of LTC4 and D4 binding sites was markedly different. Smooth muscle and epithelium of central and peripheral airways were densely labelled with [3H]LTC4; vascular smooth muscle and alveolar walls were also labelled. With [3H]LTD4, however, there was no detectable labelling of airways or vessels but substantial labelling of alveolar walls. This lends further support that LTC4 and LTD4 binding sites differ and may not be identical with functional receptors.
