Binding of [125I]-epidermal growth factor (EGF) to the membrane of the adult hamster buccal pouch was specific and protein concentration dependent, and was significantly higher than that of rat buccal tissue (hamster versus rat; 12.1 +/- 0.9 versus 9.77 +/- 0.22 fmol/mg protein, mean +/- SD, n = 5, p < 0.01). The higher binding was due to a higher receptor number (Bmax). Western blot analysis using anti-EGF receptor antibody revealed four immunoreactive protein bands of 170, 150, 116 and 55 kDa in hamster buccal membrane preparations. In a separate experiment, the EGF concentration in the phosphate-buffered saline extract of the hamster submandibular gland was determined by radioimmunoassay; the level was significantly much lower (p < 0.01) than that of rat or mouse (hamster, rat, mouse; 24.2 +/- 2.6, 123 +/- 17, 5950 +/- 171 ng/g wet tissue; mean +/- SD, n = 3). The findings suggest that hamster buccal pouch is particularly well suited to the study of the biological functions of oral EGF receptor.
