PHARMACOLOGICAL TEST
Experiment 1:V.sub.1 receptor binding assay
Using rat liver plasma membrane preparations prepared according to Ichihara's method [cf: Akira Ichihara, J. Bio. Chem., 258, 9283 (1983)], the plasma membrane (50000dpm, 2.times.10.sup.-10 M) of [H].sup.3 -Arg-vasopressin and a test compound (100 ng, 10.sup.-7 -10.sup.-4 M) are incubated at 37.degree. C. for 10 minutes in 100 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH: 8.0, 250 .mu.l) containing 5 mM MgCl.sub.2, 1 mM MEDTA and 0.1% BSA. After incubation, the mixture is filtered three times using the glass filter (GF/F) so as to separate the membrane preparation combined with vasopressin and then washed with the buffer (5 ml). This glass filter is taken out and mixed with liquid scintillation cocktail. The amount of [H].sup.3 -vasopressin combined with the membrane is measured by liquid scintillation counter and the rate of the inhibitory effect of the test compound is estimated according to the following equation. ##EQU1##
The results are expressed as IC.sub.50 values, which is the concentration of the test compound required to achieve the inhibitory effect in the rate of 50%.
The results are shown in the following Table 2.
