Cholinesterase activities and characteristics of muscarinic and dopamine form 9 week old male Sprague-Dawley (SD), Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were studied. Plasma cholinesterase activity in WKY was significantly lower (50%) than activity in the other strians. In studies of muscarinic receptors, the number of [3H]QNB binding sites in striata from SD rats was lower (18%) than those from WKY and SHR. However, muscarinic receptor properties (Kdand Bmax) were the same in hypothalami. Studies of dopamine receptors revealed that the densities of both D-1 and D-2 receptors in both striata and hypothalami were significantly higher in SHR than in other strains. However, there were no differences in the affinity constant (Kd). The higher densities in hypothalami from SHR were mainly due to the high populaion of D-a and D-2 receptors in the posterior hypothalamus. In the anterior hypothalamus, there was no difference in the population of D-2 receptors. These results provide a substantive basis, i.e. demonstration of alterations in drug metabolizing enzymes and receptor populations, on which to build an understanding of the genetic predisposition to the actions of xenobiotic agents.
