Inhibition of deprivation-induced intake by naloxone was significantly enhanced by the 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) antagonist ICS-205,930. Interactions between naloxone and either the general 5-HT antagonist methysergide or the 5-HT2 antagonist ritanserin or ketanserin produced smaller effects. The present study evaluated whether 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG, 400 mg/kg) hyperphagia was affected by methysergide (0.5-5 mg/kg), ritanserin (0.25-2.5 mg/kg), or ICS-205,930 (0.5-5 mg/kg) alone or in combination with naltrexone (0.25 and 2.5 mg/kg). Only ICS-205,930 stimulated spontaneous intake for up to 4 h in the light cycle. Only ritanserin (1.25 mg/kg) transiently reduced 2DG hyperphagia. The dose-dependent decreases in 2DG hyperphagia by naltrexone were significantly enhanced by the dose range of ICS-205,930. The inhibition of 2DG hyperphagia by the low naltrexone dose was enhanced by methysergide (5 mg/kg) and ritanserin (1.25 mg/kg). These data suggest that the 5-HT3 receptor primarily interacts with opioid systems to modulate 2DG hyperphagia and that one possible locus of interaction is in the caudal brainstem.

Opiate antagonist inhibition of deprivation-induced intake and 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) hyperphagia is significantly enhanced by the 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) antagonist, ICS-205,930. Interactions between opiate antagonists and either 5-HT or 5-HT2 antagonists produced smaller effects. The present study evaluated whether insulin (5 U/kg) hyperphagia was affected by methysergide (0.5-5 mg/kg), ritanserin (0.25-2.5 mg/kg), and ICS-205,930 (0.5-5 mg/kg) alone or in combination with naltrexone (2.5-10 mg/kg). Whereas ICS-205,930 stimulated insulin hyperphagia across the 6-h time course, ritanserin and, to a lesser degree, methysergide reduced insulin hyperphagia. Naltrexone marginally (19-33%) reduced insulin hyperphagia. Pairing naltrexone with either ICS-205,930 or ritanserin significantly suppressed insulin hyperphagia after 2 h. Pairing naltrexone with each of the serotonin antagonists significantly enhanced insulin hyperphagia after 4 and 6 h. These data suggest that 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptor subtypes interact with opioid systems to modulate insulin hyperphagia. Given that central insulin reduces food intake and body weight, the interaction between serotonergic and opioid systems may occur peripherally.

1. The current classification of receptors for 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is based on functional studies, and encompasses three main receptor types. 2. 5-HT1-like receptors mediate inhibition of release of various neurotransmitters from central and peripheral sites, smooth muscle contraction and relaxation (and release of endothelium-derived relaxing factor), tachycardia, a variety of behavioural actions (for example, forepaw treading, hypothermia, hyperphagia, drug discriminative stimulus properties, nociceptive pathway modulation, and anxiolytic, anti-aggressive and prosexual effects), and central neuronal excitatory and inhibitory activity. Selective antagonists for this receptor are not yet available, but the 5-HT2 receptor antagonists methysergide and methiothepin have appreciable affinity for 5-HT1-like receptors, and 5-carboxamidotryptamine is a selective agonist. 3. 5-HT2 receptors mediate smooth muscle contraction, platelet aggregation, increased capillary permeability, some behavioural syndromes (for example, head twitch and wet-dog shakes) and drug discriminative stimulus properties, central neuroexcitatory effects, and some neuroendocrine functions. Ketanserin and cyproheptadine are selective antagonists. 4. 5-HT3 receptors mediate peripheral afferent and efferent neuroexcitatory actions, anxiogenic effects, and modulation of cytotoxic drug-induced emesis, gastric emptying, and dopamine-related mesolimbic hyperactivity. Selective antagonists include cocaine, MDL 72222 and ICS 205-930; 2-methyl-5-HT is a selective agonist.

The 5-HT1A agonist, 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) at a dose of 1 mg/kg s.c. increased food intake in free feeding rats. 8-OH-DPAT-induced feeding was blocked by metergoline which has comparable affinity for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors. This is consistent with the hyperphagia being mediated by an action at 5-HT receptors. Evidence against the involvement of 5-HT2 or 5-HT3 receptors was provided by the lack of effect of methysergide, ketanserin, MDL 72222 and ICS 205930 on the feeding response. Blockade of the hyperphagia by (-)- but not (+)pendolol which stereoselectively interacts with 5-HT1 receptors indicated an involvement of this receptor type. The lack of effect of ketanserin suggests that the 5-HT1C site is not involved as it has high affinity for both 5-HT2 and 5-HT1C receptors. Blockade of the hyperphagia by spiperone suggests mediation by 5-HT1A rather than 5-HT1B receptors. Although spiperone also blocks dopamine and alpha 2-adrenoreceptors, involvement of these sites is unlikely as neither the DA antagonist haloperidol nor the alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist idazoxan blocked 8-OH-DPAT-induced feeding. These results indicate that 8-OH-DPAT-induced feeding is mediated by 5-HT1A receptors.

Functional interactions between serotonergic (5-HT) and opioid drugs have been observed with 5-HT3 receptor antagonism enhancing the inhibitory actions of naloxone and naltrexone in both food-deprived and glucoprivic rats; 5-HT2A/C receptor antagonism enhanced naltrexone's inhibition of insulin hyperphagia. The present study examined whether pretreatment with either general 5-HT (methysergide: 0.5-5 mg/kg), 5-HT2A/C (ritanserin: 0.25-2.5 mg/kg), or 5-HT3 (ICS 205930: 0.5-5 mg/kg) antagonists altered the pattern and magnitude of ad lib intake of simple (sucrose: 10%) or more complex (maltose dextrin: MD, 10%) carbohydrate solutions, or naltrexone's (0.25-2.5 mg/kg) inhibition of these forms of intake. Methysergide significantly increased the pattern and magnitude of sucrose intake at low (0.5-2.5 mg/kg) doses, and transiently delayed the pattern of MD intake at high (5 mg/kg) doses. Ritanserin significantly accelerated the pattern, but not the magnitude of sucrose intake at low (0.25-1.25 mg/kg) doses without affecting MD intake. ICS 205930 reduced the magnitude of sucrose intake at the highest (5 mg/kg) dose, and transiently reduced MD intake. Naltrexone dose dependently altered the pattern and magnitude of both sucrose and MD intake. Coadministration of ritanserin and naltrexone either eliminated or delayed the pattern of opioid antagonist inhibition of both sucrose and MD intake. Methysergide and ICS 205930 pretreatment produced minor changes in the pattern of naltrexone-induced inhibition. These data indicate that 5-HT receptor differentially modulate the pattern of carbohydrate intake, and indicate differential ingestive interactions between 5-HT and opioid antagonists under challenge and palatable conditions.
