【摘要】 应用放射受体分析和体外受体放射自显影技术,研究了甲醛固定对阿片受体结合能力的影响。结果表明,1％多聚甲醛溶液中孵育30分钟或12小时,对大鼠脑膜阿片受体结合能力均无显著影响; 2％或4％多聚甲醛溶液中孵育30分钟,对阿片受体结合能力也无显著影响。经甲醛固定的脑切片上的阿片受体,与[~3H]-埃托啡结合的饱和曲线与新鲜脑切片的相似。用1％多聚甲醛固定的组织切片进行体外受体放射自显影,较好地显示了阿片受体的分布。这些结果提示,甲醛固定的组织可用于进行体外受体放射自显影研究。更多还原

【Abstract】 The effects of formaldehyde fixation on the binding capacity of opiate receptors were studied with radioreceptorassay and in vitro receptor autoradiography. Incubation with 1% paraformaldehyde for 30 minutes or 12 hours has no significant influence on the binding capacity of opiate receptors of rat brain P₂ membranes, and incubation with 2% or 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 minutes also did not alter the binding capacity of opiate receptors significantly, but 12 hour incubation with 2% or 4% paraformaldehyde would change the binding capacity significantly. The saturation curve of [³H]-etorphine binding with opiate receptors in formaldehyde fixed brain tissue sections coincided with that of unfixed brain tissue sections. The opiate receptors were successfully demonstrated with in vitro receptor autoradiography in 1% paraformaldehyde fixed spinal cord sections. These results indicate that formaldehyde fixed tissue are applicable to in vitro receptor autoradiography.更多还原
