The highly specific .beta.-adrenoceptor radioligand, (.+-.)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol, was used to subclassify .beta.-adrenoceptors in membranes from human right atrial appendage obtained during open heart surgery. Binding of (.+-.)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol was saturable (Bmax = 86.4 .+-. 7.4 fmol (.+-.)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol bound/mg protein, n = 4), of high affinity (Kd = 53 .+-. 6 pM, n = 4), rapid, reversible and stereospecific. The relative potencies of isoprenaline, adrenaline [epinephrine], and noradrenaline [norepinephrine] for inhibition of (.+-.)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol binding and activation of adenylate cyclase were 1:10:10, indicating a population composed mainly of .beta.1-adrenoceptors. Inhibition of (.+-.)-[125I]iodocyanopindolol binding by .beta.1- (practolol, metoprolol, betaxolol) and .beta.2- (IPS 339, ICI 118,551, zinterol, procaterol) selective drugs, however, resulted in biphasic displacement curves with slope factors (nH, pseudo Hill coefficients) significantly < 1.0. Nonlinear regression analysis of these curves revealed a .beta.1:.beta.2 ratio of 80:20 in human right atrial appendage. Nonselective .beta.-adrenergic drugs (propranolol, isoprenaline and adrenaline), on the contrary, inhibited binding with monophasic displacement curves and nH = 1.0. Binding of agonists to the .beta.-adrenoceptors in human right atrial appendage seems to be regulated by guanyl nucleotides. In the absence of GTP, isoprenaline binds to high and low affinity state of the .beta.-adrenoceptors. GTP (10-4 M) converts this heterogeneous binding into a homogeneous one of low affinity. Evidently, in human right atria, .beta.1- and .beta.2-adrenoceptors coexist; however, .beta.1-adrenoceptors predominate. The physiological function of .beta.2-adrenoceptors in human right atrium remains to be elucidated.
