摘要

Use of the highly toxic and easily prepared rodenticide tetramethylenedisulfotetramine (TETS) was banned after thousands of accidental or intentional human poisonings, but it is of continued concern as a chemical threat agent. TETS is a noncompetitive blocker of the GABA type A receptor (GABA_AR), but its molecular interaction has not been directly established for lack of a suitable radioligand to localize the binding site. We synthesized ~(14)CTETS (14 mCi/mmol, radiochemical purity >99) by reacting sulfamide with H~(14)CHO and s-trioxane then completion of the sequential cyclization with excess HCHO. The outstanding radiocarbon sensitivity of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) allowed the use of ~(14)CTETS in neuroreceptor binding studies with rat brain membranes in comparison with the standard GABA_AR radioligand 4′-ethynyl-4-n-~3Hpropylbicycloorthobenzoate (~3HEBOB) (46 Ci/mmol), illustrating the use of AMS for characterizing the binding sites of high-affinity ~(14)C radioligands. Fourteen noncompetitive antagonists of widely diverse chemotypes assayed at 1 or 10 μM inhibited ~(14)CTETS and ~3HEBOB binding to a similar extent (r~2 = 0.71). Molecular dynamics simulations of these 14 toxicants in the pore region of the α1β2γ2 GABA_AR predict unique and significant polar interactions for TETS with α1T1′ and γ_2S2′, which are not observed for EBOB or the GABAergic insecticides. Several GABA_AR modulators similarly inhibited ~(14)CTETS and ~3HEBOB binding, including midazolam, flurazepam, avermectin Ba1, baclofen, isoguvacine, and propofol, at 1 or 10 μM, providing an in vitro system for recognizing candidate antidotes.
