[Partial purification of endogenous inhibitors of (+)-[3H] SKF 10047 binding with sigma-opioid receptors of the liver].

Porcine liver extract inhibits (+)-[3H]SKF 10047 binding to rat liver membranes. The inhibitors of (+)-[3H]SKF 10047 binding were detected in acetone supernatant and in acid acetonated powder of the liver extract. Partial purification of the acetone supernatant revealed some characteristics of these inhibitors: low molecular weight (less than 1000), thermostability, resistance to pronase digestion, solubility in water and organic solvents.
