The putative serotonin (5-HT)1A agonist 1-[2-(4-aminophenyl)ethyl]-4-(3-trifluormethylphenyl) piperazine (LY165163, PAPP) induces hyperphagia and hypothermia in rats, but unlike other 5-HT agonists, does not induce 5-HT stereotypy even at high doses (10 mg/kg sc). LY165163 (1 mg/kg) increased striatal DOPA accumulation in animals treated with the aromatic amino acid decarboxylase inhibitor 3-hydroxy-benzylhydrazine (NSD 1015) (100 mg/kg ip). This increase was also found when the drug was given to animals pretreated with parachlorophenylalanine (pCPA) (150 mg/kg ip daily for 3 days). LY165163 (2 and 4 mg/kg sc) inhibited stereotyped behaviour induced by the dopamine (DA) agonist apomorphine (2 mg/kg sc). LY165163 (2, 4, 10 mg/kg sc) also inhibited stereotyped components of the 5-HT syndrome induced by 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeODMT; 5 mg/kg ip) which previous studies (e.g. Andrews et al. 1982) suggested to require DA (head weaving, reciprocal forepaw treading). Thus, while other 5-HT1A agonists such as 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) cause stereotypy, this does not occur with LY165163, probably because the drug blocks DA receptors.

The putative 5-HT1A agonist 1-[2-(4-aminophenyl)ethyl]-4-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (LY165163, PAPP) (1, 2, 4, 10 mg/kg s.c.) caused a significant and dose-dependent hypothermia in rats, 30 and 60 min after injection. The decreases of temperature were less marked than that caused by 8-OH-DPAT 1 mg/kg s.c.). Depletion of brain serotonin (5-HT) by 91% following pretreatment with p-chlorophenylalanine (pCPA) (150 mg/kg i.p. on three successive days) significantly enhanced the hypothermic effects of both 8-OH-DPAT (0.25 mg/kg s.c.) and LY165163 (4 mg/kg s.c.). LY165163-induced hypothermia was also somewhat enhanced following depletion of hypothalamic 5-HT by 76% after infusion of 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine (5,7-DHT) (150 micrograms) into the third ventricle. Results indicate that the hypothermia induced by the putative 5-HT1A agonists LY165163 and 8-OH-DPAT in the rat is not dependent on presynaptic 5-HT stores and is therefore probably mediated by postsynaptic 5-HT receptors.

The alpha 1-adrenoceptor agonist, SDZ NVI-085 ((-)-(4aR,10aR)-3,4,4a,5,10,10a-hexahydro-6-methoxy-4- methyl-9-(methylthio)-2H-naphth[2,3-b]-1,4-oxazine.HCl; 1 mg/kg i.p.), decreased body temperature of guinea-pigs. Two 5-HT1D receptor antagonists, GR127935 (N-[4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]-2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl- 1,2,4-oxadiazol-3yl)[1,1-biphenyl]-4-carboxamide) and PAPP (p-aminophenylethyl-m-trifluoromethylphenyl piperazine; both compounds at 1 mg/kg i.p., -30 min) blocked this response, whilst the alpha 1-adrenoceptor blocker prazosin (1 mg/kg i.p.) and the 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, SDZ 216-525 (methyl 4-(-[4-(1,1m3-trioxo-2H-1,2-benzoisothiazol-2-yl)butyl ]-1-piperazinyl)1H- indole-2-carboxylate; 1 mg/kg i.p.) were inactive. Another alpha 1-adrenoceptor agonist, St 587 (2-(2-chloro-5-trifluoromethylphenylimino)-imidazoline; 1 mg/kg i.p.) did not alter body temperature. SDZ NVI-085-induced hypothermia in guinea-pigs is probably mediated by 5-HT1D receptors.
