An endogenous ligand from human CSE for the phencyclidine receptor

NIDA Res Monogr. 1986:75:165-8.

Abstract

A fraction which potently and specifically competed with 3H-PCP binding to rat membranes was isolated from human CSF. This substance ran just before the salts in Sephadex G-25 column and was eluted with low concentrations of acetonitrile in reverse phase HPLC, predicating that it may be a small hydrophilic compound with a MW. of less than 1,000 daltons.
