Binding and activation of cell signaling by CCK peptides


CCK-8
CCK-58
Bmax
Binding Kd, nM Δ[Ca2+]i EC50, nM Binding Ki, nM Δ[Ca2+]i EC50, nM
rCCK1 1.1±0.1 0.23±0.1 5.4±0.4 1.2±0.1 4.2±0.2
hCCK1 1.2±0.2 0.35±0.1 6.7±0.3 1.5±0.2 4.4±0.8

Receptor kinetic binding constants (Kd and Ki , nM) represent the means ± SE of data from 3 separate experiments. Maximum binding capacity (Bmax) values were calculated by Scatchard analysis of stably transfected cells and expressed as expressed as no. × 105 sites/cell. Concentrations of peptides stimulating half-maximal calcium responses (EC50, nM) were determined in duplicate from at least 2 separate experiments. rCCK1 and hCCK1, human and rat type 1 CCK, respectively; Δ[Ca2+]i, intracellular calcium increase.
