Binding properties of [4(5)-fluoro-imidazole-His2]-TRH (4(5)-F-TRH), [2-trifluoromethyl-imidazole-His2]-TRH (2-CF3-TRH) and [4(5)-trifluoromethyl-imidazole-His2]-TRH (4(5)-CF3-TRH), three novel TRH analogs, have been evaluated in rat pituitary, hypothalamus, brainstem and cortex tissue. 4(5)-F-TRH, previously shown to elicit arterial pressor responses and prolactin release similar to those of TRH, binds to TRH receptors with low, micromolar affinity (Ki= 7.5−13.5μM) 2-CF3-TRH, an analog of less cardiovascular but increased prolactin-releasing activity, shows Kivalues of 3.3–4.9 μM. 4(5)-CF3-TRH, which shows comparable biological activity to 2-CF3-TRH, demonstrates a binding affinity which is virtually nonspecific (Ki= 0.39−1.01 mM). It is therefore concluded that the biological effects of these analogs are mediated either through low affinity TRH binding sites not recognized by [3H][3Me-His2]-TRH or through mechanisms not involving TRH receptors as such.
