| Abstract | Competitive receptor binding assays have been suggested as an in vitro screening tool for assessing the activity of alleged estrogenic substances. In this study, we determined the ability of steroidal and nonsteroidal substances to inhibit the binding of [H-3]17 beta -estradiol (E2) to the hepatic estrogen receptor (ER) and the plasma sex steroid binding protein (SBP) of the teleost fish, the common carp (Cyprinus carpio). The objectives of the study were (1) to characterize ER binding in the liver cytosol of male and female carp, (2) to establish complete [H-3]E2 displacement curves from carp ER for a range of natural and xenobiotic substances and to compare the ligand data of carp ER with published data from other vertebrate species to reveal possible species differences, and (3) to determine the interaction of natural and xenobiotic substances with the steroid binding site of SEP in carp plasma. The results indicate the presence of a single class of estrogen binding sites with high affinity and limited capacity in liver cytosol of carp. The various test agents showed partly quantitative differences in their binding affinities, with the xenobiotics generally showing limited ability to displace [H-3]E2 from the hepatic ER or from plasma SEP of carp. However, we found no evidence that a compound is an ER ligand exclusively in one species. The findings of this study indicate that interspecies extrapolation of steroid receptor binding data is possible on a yes/no basis but not on a quantitative basis. |
