Interaction of dihydroxy-2-aminotetralin derivatives at sites labelled with [3H]clonidine, [3H]prazosin and [3H]spiperone in rat brain membranes.

The interactions of 5,6- and 6,7-dihydroxy derivatives of 2-aminotetralin with [3H]clonidine and [3H]prazosin as well as with [3H]spiperone binding sites in rat cerebral cortex membrane preparations were investigated. The hydroxy derivatives of 2-aminotetralin tested showed significant interaction with [3H]clonidine as well as with [3H]peiperone binding sites while for [3H]prazosin binding site these agents appeared virtually inactive. For interaction with [3H]clonidine binding site 6,7-dihyroxy substitutions impart greater potency that 5,6-dihydroxy substitutions and N-alkyl substitutions either make no differece or reduce the affinity of these compounds. N-alkyl substitutions, however, markedly enhance the affinity of 5,6-dihydroxy derivatives for interaction with [3H]spiperone binding site. The results suggest that some hydroxy derivatives of aminotetralin have significant interaction with both central alpha 2-adrenoceptor and D2-dopamine receptor systems.[1]
