Abstract

Radioligand binding assays were used to demonstrate the presence of α₁, α(2) and β receptora in rat spinal cord. Specific and saturable binding was exhibited for [³H-WB 4101 (α₁), [³H]-aminoclonldine (α₂) and [³H]-dihydroalprenolol(β). Binding was of high affinity and the total number of binding sites (B_maxwere: α₁, 66.5 ± 1.0 fmol/mg protein; α₂, 20.0 ± 0.6 fmol/mg protein; β, 10.2 ± 0.3 fmol/mg protein. The data confirms the existence of adrenergic receptors in spinal cord and provides further evidence of the role of catecholaminergic neurons in regulating spinal cord physiology.
