Article Title: TIPP[ψ], a highly selective δ ligand
Abstract: TIPP[ψ] is a new δ-selective opioid peptide antagonist. In the current study, we have explored its selectivity against the μ and κ receptor subtypes. Against [3H]DPDPE binding, TIPP[ψ] is quite potent, with a Ki value of < 1 nM, confirming its potent activity at δ receptors. In contrast, its Ki values against μ1, μ2, κ1, κ2 and κ3 binding sites are all >5 μM. DPDPE also is δ-selective. It labels δ sites >25-fold more potently than μ1 receptors and is even more selective against the other subtypes. However, this selectivity does not compare to the δ μ1 selectivity of TIPP[ψ] which exceeds 15,000. This far higher selectivity, coupled with its antagonist properties, gives TIPP[ψ] a number of advantages over previously reported δ-selective compounds. We have utilized these advantages to develop an improved μ1 binding assay using TIPP[ψ]. © 1994.
