Beta-Adrenergic receptors were studied in intact cells of chick, rat and mouse embryo brain in primary cultures, by the specific binding of [3H]dihydro-L-alprenolol ([3H]DHA). The results were compared to the receptor binding of broken cell preparations derived from the cell cultures or from the forebrain tissues used for the preparation of the cultures. Detailed analysis of [3H]DHA binding to living chick brain cells revealed a high-affinity, stereoselective, beta-adrenergic-type binding site. Equilibrium measurements indicated the apparent positive cooperativity of the binding reaction. By direct fitting of the Hill equation to the measured data, values of Bmax = 12.01 fmol/10(6) cells (7200 sites/cell), Kd = 60.23 pM and the Hill coefficient n = 2.78 were found. The apparent cooperative character of the binding was confirmed by the kinetics of competition with L-alprenolol, resulting in maximum curves at low ligand concentrations. The rate constants of the binding reaction were estimated as k+ = 8.31 X 10(7) M-1 X min-1 and k- = 0.28 min-1 from the association results, and k- = 0.24 min-1 from the dissociation data. The association kinetics supported the cooperativity of the binding, providing a Hill coefficient n = 1.76; Kd, as (k-/k+)1/n was found to be 101 pM. Analysis of the equilibrium binding of [3H]DHA to rat and mouse living brain cells resulted in values of Bmax = 13.04 fmol/10(6) cells (7800 sites/cell), Kd = 43.85 pM and n = 2.52, and Bmax = 8.08 fmol/10(6) cells (4800 sites/cell), Kd = 46.70 pM and n = 1.63, respectively, confirming the apparent cooperativity of the beta-receptor in mammalian objects, too. The [3H]DHA equilibrium binding to broken cell preparations of either chick, rat or mouse brain cultures or forebrain tissues was found to be non-cooperative, with a Hill coefficient n = 1, Kd in the range 1-2 nM, and a Bmax of 10(3) - 10(4) sites/cell. Our findings demonstrate that cell disruption causes marked changes in the kinetics of the beta-receptor binding and in the affinity of the binding site, although the number of receptors remains unchanged.
