The cloned 5-HT1A receptor, stably expressed in HeLa cells, has been shown to mediate the effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) to inhibit cAMP formation and to stimulate the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol. Both responses were found to be pertussis toxin sensitive. We have examined these two responses in membranes derived from these cells and show that the 5-HT1A receptor can directly regulate the activity of adenylyl cyclase and phospholipase C in response to agonist. In order to examine whether the same or distinct guanine nucleotide-binding regulatory protein(s) (G protein) are involved in these two signal transduction pathways, we used anti-peptide antibodies recognizing the alpha-subunits of Gi1, Gi2, Gi3 as specific tools, since these pertussis toxin substrates are expressed in HeLa cells. These antibodies have previously been shown to prevent receptor-G protein coupling by binding to the regions of G proteins which are putatively involved in interaction with receptors. Our results indicate that the Gi proteins, but preferentially Gi3, mediate the effects of 5-HT both to inhibit adenylyl cyclase and to stimulate phospholipase C. These findings demonstrate that the same receptor interacting with the same G protein can regulate several distinct effector molecules.

Regulation of phosphate uptake was studied in a HeLa cell line after transfection with DNA encoding the human 5-HT1A receptor. In these cells, 5-HT stimulates sodium-dependent phosphate uptake via protein kinase C activation. Endogenous histamine H1 receptors (739 +/- 20 fmol/mg protein) were identified with [3H]pyrilamine. Histamine (i) stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis (EC50 = 8.6 +/- 4.1 microM), (ii) activated protein kinase C (2.4-fold increase in activity), and (iii) increased phosphate uptake (EC50 = 3.2 +/- 1.8 microM) by increasing maximal transport (Vmax(basal) = 6.2 +/- 0.3 versus Vmax(histamine) = 9.1 +/- 0.4) without changing the affinity of the transport process for phosphate. Prolonged treatment with 16 microM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate completely blocked protein kinase C activation and markedly attenuated the stimulation of phosphate uptake induced by histamine, establishing that 5-HT and histamine stimulate phosphate uptake through the common pathway of protein kinase C activation. The linkages of the histamine H1 and 5-HT1A receptors to G protein pools were assessed in two ways. (i) The stimulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis, protein kinase C activity, and phosphate uptake associated with histamine were insensitive to pertussis toxin, whereas those associated with 5-HT were very sensitive to pertussis toxin. (ii) The stimulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis, protein kinase C activity, and phosphate uptake induced by histamine and 5-HT were additive. These findings suggest that distinct receptor types can stimulate phosphoinositide hydrolysis, protein kinase C, and phosphate uptake in an additive fashion through distinct pools of G proteins in a single cell type.

Serotonin 5-HT1A receptors have been reported to be negatively coupled to muscarinic receptor-stimulated phosphoinositide turnover in the rat hippocampus. In the present study, we have investigated further the pharmacological specificity of this negative control and attempted to elucidate the mechanism whereby 5-HT1A receptor activation inhibits the carbachol-stimulated phosphoinositide response in immature or adult rat hippocampal slices. Various 5-HT1A receptor agonists were found to inhibit carbachol (10 microM)-stimulated formation of total inositol phosphates in immature rat hippocampal slices with the following rank order of potency (IC50 values in nM): 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) (11) greater than ipsapirone (20) greater than gepirone (120) greater than RU 24969 (140) greater than buspirone (560) greater than 1-(m-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (1,500) greater than methysergide (5,644); selective 5-HT1B, 5-HT2, and 5-HT3 receptor agonists were inactive. The potency of the 5-HT1A receptor agonists investigated as inhibitors of the carbachol response was well correlated (r = 0.92) with their potency as inhibitors of the forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase in guinea pig hippocampal membranes. 8-OH-DPAT (10 microM) fully inhibited the carbachol-stimulated formation of inositol di-, tris-, and tetrakisphosphate but only partially antagonized (-40%) inositol monophosphate production. The effect of 8-OH-DPAT on carbachol-stimulated phosphoinositide turnover was not prevented by addition of tetrodotoxin (1 microM), by prior destruction of serotonergic afferents, by experimental manipulations causing an increase in cyclic AMP levels (addition of 10 microM forskolin), or by changes in membrane potential (increase in K+ concentration or addition of tetraethylammonium). Prior intrahippocampal injection of pertussis toxin also failed to alter the ability of 8-OH-DPAT to inhibit the carbachol response. Carbachol-stimulated phosphoinositide turnover in immature rat hippocampal slices was inhibited by the protein kinase C activators phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (10 microM) and arachidonic acid (100 microM). Moreover, the inhibitory effect of 8-OH-DPAT on the carbachol response was blocked by 10 microM quinacrine (a phospholipase A2 inhibitor) but not by BW 755C (100 microM), a cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase inhibitor. These results collectively suggest that 5-HT1A receptor activation inhibits carbachol-stimulated phosphoinositide turnover by stimulating a phospholipase A2 coupled to 5-HT1A receptors, leading to arachidonic acid release. Arachidonic acid could in turn activate a gamma-protein kinase C with as a consequence an inhibition of carbachol-stimulated phosphoinositide turnover. This inhibition may be the consequence of a phospholipase C phosphorylation and/or a direct effect on the muscarinic receptor.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Previous investigations (El Mestikawy et al., J Neurochem 51: 1031-1040, 1988) have shown that 5-HT1A binding sites (R[5-HT1A]) solubilized by CHAPS from rat hippocampal membranes can be modulated by guanine nucleotides, as expected from their solubilization together with associated G regulatory proteins (G). Studies of the hydrodynamic properties of solubilized R[5-HT1A] have been presently carried out in order to assess in a more direct way the presence of R[5-HT1A]-G complexes in the soluble extract. Under control conditions, the sedimentation of a CHAPS extract from hippocampal membranes through a 5-30% sucrose gradient (200,000 g, 17 hr, 4 degrees) gave two maxima of [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding activity corresponding to sedimentation coefficients of 8.0 S and 10.0 S, respectively. Running the gradient in the presence of 1 microM GTP revealed a significant reduction of the 10.0 S peak, as expected from the loss of material (probably a G protein) normally associated with R[5-HT1A]. Conversely, attempts to prevent the dissociation of R[5-HT1A]-G by treatment of CHAPS soluble hippocampal extracts with the cross-linking reagent disuccinimidyl suberate (0.1 mM) resulted in a significant increase (+70%) in [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding activity associated with the appearance of a new sedimenting material with a higher coefficient (16.5 S). Furthermore, [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding became almost completely insensitive to guanine nucleotides as expected from the irreversible coupling by disuccinimidyl suberate of R[5-HT1A] with G protein(s). WGA-agarose chromatography of CHAPS soluble hippocampal extract supplemented with GTP allowed the physical separation of R[5-HT1A] from the bulk of G proteins, and a concomitant decrease of [3H]8-OH-DPAT high affinity binding capacity. Partial recovery of the latter could be achieved by reconstituting R[5-HT1A]-G complexes upon the addition of a mixture of pure bovine Gi + Go to G-deprived soluble extracts. Finally in vivo treatment with Pertussis toxin (5 micrograms intracerebroventricularly, 48 hr before killing) resulted in a significant reduction of the specific binding of [3H]8-OH-DPAT (-36%) to hippocampal membranes and corresponding CHAPS soluble extracts, and a marked decrease in the inhibitory effect of GppNHp. Accordingly the G protein associated with R[5-HT1A] belongs probably to the Gi or Go families.

Agonist occupancy of the cloned human serotonin (5-HT)1A receptor expressed in HeLa cells stimulates Na+/K+ ATPase activity as assessed by rubidium uptake. The purpose of the study was to determine which of the receptor-associated signaling mechanisms was responsible for this effect. 5-HT stimulated Na+/K+ ATPase 38% at 2 mM extracellular potassium, an effect characterized by a decrease in apparent K0.5 from 2.8 +/- 0.3 to 1.8 +/- 0.3 mM potassium without a significant change in apparent Vmax. The EC50 for the transport effect was approximately 3 microM 5-HT. The response was pertussis toxin-sensitive but did not involve inhibition of adenylate cyclase, as stimulation of Na+/K+ ATPase by 5-HT was observed in the presence of excess dibutyryl cAMP. Protein kinase C was not required for the response since short-term incubation with the phorbol esters phorbol 12 myristate, 13 acetate (PMA) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) did not mimic the 5-HT effect. Moreover, 5-HT increased Na+/K+ ATPase activity after inactivation of protein kinase C by overnight incubation with PMA. 5-HT and the sesquiterpene lactone thapsigargin increased cytosolic calcium in this cell model, and the EC50 for 5-HT corresponded with that for stimulation of Na+/K+ ATPase. Both thapsigargin and A23187, a calcium ionophore, also increased Na+/K+ ATPase activity in a dose-responsive fashion. The response to 5-HT, thapsigargin, and A23187 was blocked by conditions that removed the cytosolic calcium response. By two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, we established evidence for a calcium-sensitive but protein kinase C-independent signaling pathway. We conclude that the 5-HT1A receptor, which we have previously shown to stimulate phosphate uptake via protein kinase C, stimulates Na+/K+ ATPase via a calcium-dependent mechanism. This provides evidence for regulation of two separate transport processes by a single receptor subtype via different signaling mechanisms.

The prejunctional inhibitory effects of a series of 5-HT1 receptor agonists were examined against the isometric contraction of epididymal portions of rat vas deferens evoked by single stimulus pulses in the presence of nifedipine (10 mumol/l). The 5-HT1A ligand flesinoxan produced inhibition of contractions which was not inhibited by cyanopindolol or yohimbine. However, the prejunctional inhibitory concentration response curve for the 5-HT1 agonist 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) was biphasic in tissues from 1.5 month old animals but monophasic in tissues from 24 months animals. Cyanopindolol (1 mumol/l) antagonised the inhibitory effects of 5-CT in tissues from 1.5 and 3 month animals but not in tissues from 8 or 24 months animals. Inhibitory actions of 5-CT were not prevented by pretreating animals with pertussis toxin (6 micrograms/kg i.v.), a dose which abolished the negative inotropic response to acetylcholine in rat left atria. It is concluded that the nerve terminals of vas deferens from 1.5 month old animals contain both 5-HT1B and other as yet unclassified 5-HT1 receptors, but that this 5-HT1B-mediated response is lost in maturation and ageing.

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) and its analogs activate adenylate cyclase in membrane particles from neuroblastoma NCB.20 cells. Low concentrations of GTP (EC50 = 60 nM) were required for activation by serotonin. Guanosine 5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate) inhibited serotonin-activated cyclase in these cells. The nonhydrolyzable GTP analogs guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (EC50 = 3 nM) and guanylyl-imidodiphosphate (EC50 = 100 nM) substituted for GTP in potentiating serotonin activation. Pretreatment of the cells with cholera toxin potentiated enzyme activation by serotonin, whereas pertussis toxin was found to have little effect, indicating the involvement of the alpha subunit of a stimulatory GTP-binding protein in enzyme activation. Homologous desensitization of the serotonin-stimulated adenylate cyclase was demonstrated in membranes prepared from intact cells pretreated with serotonin. Cell membrane particles that were desensitized to serotonin were still responsive to beta-adrenergic agonists and to prostaglandin E1. Evidence is presented indicating that serotonin stimulation of adenylate cyclase is mediated by receptors that are distinct from other positively coupled receptors (beta-adrenergic, histamine, and prostacyclin). Equilibrium binding analysis with [3H]serotonin, [3H]lysergic acid diethylamide, and [3H]dihydroergotamine suggested that the site density was below the level of detection of binding of these radioligands. The pharmacological characteristics of the serotonin-activated cyclases were analyzed in order to compare these serotonin receptors with the family of different receptor subtypes. Correlation analysis between the potencies of different agonists and antagonists at the cyclase in these cells and their reported relative potencies for different serotonin receptor subtypes showed no correlation with the 5-HT1A, 5HT1B, 5HT1D, 5-HT2, and 5-HT3 receptors. On the other hand, the analysis showed that the NCB.20 serotonin receptors are similar but not identical to the rat and pig brain 5-HT1C receptors and to the serotonin receptors coupled to adenylate cyclase in the trematodes Schistosoma mansoni and Fasciola hepatica. The results point to a novel serotonin receptor which has a low density in these cells.

The inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor agonists was measured in rat hippocampal membranes isolated from animals treated with vehicle or islet-activating protein (IAP; pertussis toxin). In vehicle-treated animals, 5-HT, 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin, buspirone, and gepirone were potent in inhibiting forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity with EC50 values of 60, 76, 376, and 530 nM, respectively. IAP treatment reduced by 30-55% the 5-HT1A agonist inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity via 5-HT1A receptors. The data indicate that the inhibitory guanine nucleotide-binding protein or Go (a similar GTP-binding protein of unknown function purified from brain) mediates the 5-HT1A agonist inhibition of hippocampal adenylate cyclase.

Serotonin has no obvious effect on basal cyclic AMP levels but reduces the forskolin-, isoproterenol-, and vasoactive intestinal peptide-induced stimulation of cyclic AMP levels in a dose-dependent manner. Serotonergic, cholinergic, muscarinic, alpha-adrenergic, and dopaminergic antagonists have no effect on the serotonin response. Topical application of a serotonin/pargyline solution to the living eye causes desensitisation of the serotonin response in the iris-ciliary body, an observation confirming the presence of specific serotonergic receptors linked to adenylate cyclase. The 5-HT1A [5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) type 1A] receptor agonists 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin and buspirone mimic the serotonin response in reducing the forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP levels, as do the indole derivatives 5-methoxytryptamine, 5-hydroxtryptophan, and tryptamine. However, the ineffectiveness of the 5-HT1A agonist ipsapirone and the inability of spiroxatrine to block the serotonin response show that classical 5-HT1A receptors are not involved. The serotonin response is blocked by pertussis toxin and is insensitive to the phosphodiesterase inhibitor theophylline, which indicates the involvement of an inhibitory guanine regulatory protein in the coupling of the serotonin receptor to the adenylate cyclase catalytic unit.

The signal transduction pathways of the cloned human 5-HT1A receptor have been examined in two mammalian cell lines transiently (COS-7) or permanently (HeLa) expressing this receptor gene. In both systems, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) mediated a marked inhibition of beta 2-adrenergic agonist-stimulated (80% inhibition in COS-7 cells) or forskolin-stimulated cAMP formation (up to 90% inhibition in HeLa cells). This serotonin effect (EC50 = 20 nM) could be competitively antagonized by metitepine and spiperone (Ki = 81 and 31 nM, respectively) and could also be blocked by pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin. In both cell types, 5-HT failed to stimulate adenylyl cyclase through the expressed receptors. In HeLa cells, 5-HT also stimulated phospholipase C (approximately 40-75% stimulation of formation of inositol phosphates). Again, this effect was inhibited by metitepine. However, the EC50 of 5-HT was considerably higher (approximately 3.2 microM) than that found for inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. Both pathways were demonstrated to be similarly affected by pertussis toxin. These findings indicate that like the M2 and M3 muscarinic cholinergic receptors, the 5-HT1A receptor can couple to multiple transduction pathways with varying efficiencies via pertussis toxin-sensitive G-proteins. The lack of stimulation of cAMP formation by this 5-HT1A receptor may suggest the existence of another pharmacologically closely related receptor.
