PK 11195 [1-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-methyl-N-(1-methylpropyl)-3-isoquinolinecarboxamide] is a new ligand for the "peripheral-type" benzodiazepine binding sites, chemically unrelated to benzodiazepines. It displaces with a very high potency (IC50 congruent to 10(-9) M) [3H]-RO5-4864 (a benzodiazepine which specifically labels the peripheral-type sites) from its binding sites. [3H]PK 11195 binds to a membrane fraction from rat brain cortex and rat olfactory bulb in a saturable and reversible manner with a very high affinity (KD = 10(-9) M). The number of maximal binding sites was ten times greater in the olfactory bulb than in the brain cortex. The order of potency of several compounds as displacers at 25 degrees C (PK 11195 greater than RO5-4864 greater than diazepam greater than dipyridamole greater than clonazepam) demonstrates that [3H]PK 11195 binds to the peripheral-type benzodiazepine binding sites. The KD value for the [3H]PK 11195 binding is not affected by temperature changes, whereas RO5-4864 and diazepam affinities decrease with increasing temperatures. Autoradiographic images of [3H]PK 11195 binding to rat brain sections show that binding sites are mainly localized in the olfactory bulb, median eminence, choroid plexus, and ependyma. This ligand could be a useful tool to elucidate the physiological and pharmacological relevance of these binding sites.
