The study of the kinetics of binding of the opiate receptor agonist [3H]DADLE with NG108-15 cell suspensions has revealed a new periodic biological phenomenon, i.e., oscillations of the cellular receptor activity. The absence of oscillations for binding of the receptor antagonist shows that oscillations occur as a result of the transformation of the receptor signal only.
A kinetic analysis of the delta-opiate receptor agonist, [3H] DADLE, binding to cell (NG108-15) suspensions has led to the discovery of a new periodic biological phenomenon, namely, receptor activity oscillations. The absence of oscillations for the antagonist binding to the receptors suggests that oscillations are generated only as a result of receptor signal transformation. The correlation between the quantitative characteristics of the kinetic curves and the experimental conditions points to the fact that receptor binding oscillations may be due either to the receptor binding to the G-protein or the interaction of the receptor (or G-protein) with microtubules.
