摘要：

We have previously demonstrated the presence of two distinct bombesin receptor subtypes in the rat CNS and distinguished them as bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (BBS/GRP) and neuromedin B (NMB)-preferring binding sites. In the present study, we conduct a complete evaluation of the distribution of these binding sites throughout the rat brain using in vitro receptor autoradiography. The BBS/GRP-preferring binding sites were characterized as those that bound I-125-(Tyr4)BBS but not I-125-(D-Tyro)NMB. At these sites I-125-(Tyr4)BBS binding was inhibited in the presence of 100 nM BBS but not by the same concentration of NMB. In contrast, NMB-preferring sites bound both radioligands and binding at these sites was inhibited in the presence of 100 nM NMB. Our results indicate that the distributions of BBS/GRP and NMB-preferring binding sites are widespread and distinct at all levels of the rat brain suggesting these peptides mediate separate functions in the rat central nervous system.
