[3H]Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, [3H]5-HT) was used as a radioligand probe of brain 5-HT receptors in homogenates of human cortical tissue. Two binding sites were detected in the presence of 1 microM pindolol (to block 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors), and 100 nM mesulergine (to block 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors). One of these sites demonstrated high affinity for 5-carboxyamidotryptamine (5-CT) and ergotamine, consistent with the known pharmacology of the 5-HT1D receptor; the second site demonstrated low affinity for 5-CT and ergotamine. Computer-assisted analyses indicated that both drugs displayed high affinities (Ki values of 1.1 nM and 0.3 nM for 5-CT and ergotamine, respectively) for 55% of the sites and low affinities (Ki values of 910 nM and 155 nM for 5-CT and ergotamine, respectively) for 45% of the sites. To investigate the non-5-HT1D component of the binding, 100 nM 5-CT (to block 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, and 5-HT1D receptors) was coincubated with [3H]5-HT, membranes, and mesulergine. The remaining [3H]5-HT binding (hereafter referred to as "5-HT1E") displayed high affinity and saturability (KD, 5.3 nM; Bmax, 83 fmol/mg) in human cortical tissue. Competition studies with nonradioactive drugs indicated that, of the drugs tested, 5-CT and ergotamine displayed the highest selectivity for the 5-HT1D site versus the 5-HT1E site.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Identification of 5-HT receptor subtypes--5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, 5-HT1D, 5-HT2 (possibly A and B), 5-HT3 subtypes, and possibly 5-HT4--has encouraged the manufacture of 5-HT receptor inhibitors with greater subtype specificity. However, it appears that the receptors interact, and drugs initially thought to be specific may have multiple actions. For some conditions such as anxiety/depression, almost all receptors are implicated. Clinical studies provide clear evidence that manipulation of the 5-HT system has a role in treating depression, anxiety, obsessional illness, migraine, and eating disorders. Interactions between the various receptor subtypes make it difficult to identify specific clinical functions. The 5-HT1A receptors may be involved in aggression, anorexia, and hypotension. The 5-HT1B receptors may be involved in aggression, while the 5-HT1C receptors may play a role in central aversion systems and anxiety/depression. The role of the 5-HT1D receptors remains speculative; 5-HT2 receptors appear to be involved in depression, anxiety, appetite, sleep, vasoconstriction, and hypertension. Many drugs that are effective in treating migraine are potent 5-HT2 antagonists. 5-HT3 antagonists at high doses are effective in treating nausea and at low doses in treating anxiety. Treatment of aggression, suicidal behaviour, addiction behaviour, memory impairment, dementia, and schizophrenia with 5-HT inhibitors requires further testing.

The characterization of the receptor(s) involved in the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-induced contraction was studied in the cat middle cerebral artery. 5-HT agonists and antagonists were tested on isolated arterial segments and their vascular potency correlated with their affinity value for 5-HT receptor subtypes as defined in the literature. 5-Carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) and RU 24969 (5-HT1A-1B agonists) were more potent and as potent as 5-HT, respectively. Agonists at the 5-HT1C-2 (alpha-methyl-5-HT) and 5-HT3 (2-methyl-5-HT) sites were significantly less potent than 5-HT. All these agents induced similar maximal effects. The selective 5-HT1A agonist, 8-hydroxy-2(di-n-propylamino)tetralin, was the least potent but elicited a more intense vasoconstriction. The 5-HT-induced contraction was potently inhibited by compounds with high affinity at the 5-HT2 site in an apparently noncompetitive manner. The order of potency was: pizotifen greater than ritanserin greater than or equal to dihydroergotamine greater than or equal to ketanserin greater than or equal to methysergide. The nonselective agent methiothepin inhibited strongly the vasoconstriction induced by both 5-HT and 5-CT although a decrease in the maximal responses was observed together with a shift of the dose-response curves. In contrast to 5-HT, the contraction induced by 5-CT was only slightly affected by micromolar concentrations of ketanserin. 5-HT1A-1B (propranolol and cyanopindolol), 5-HT1C (mesulergine) and 5-HT3 (MDL 7222 and GR 38032F) selective drugs were almost completely devoid of significant antagonistic activity. Thus, the pharmacology of the feline cerebrovascular receptor(s) shares agonist similarities with the 5-HT1B/5-HT1D receptor subtypes whereas its antagonist profile relates more to that of the 5-HT2 site described in mammalian brain. Although these results may suggest the presence of two receptors in this cerebrovascular smooth muscle, they do not exclude the possibility that a single 5-HT receptor, not yet described by radioligand binding techniques, mediates the contractions induced by 5-HT. A definitive classification of this site, however, appears premature and would require novel and more selective agents.

The effects of several putative 5-HT1 receptor-subtype selective ligands were investigated in biochemical models for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, and 5-HT1D receptors (inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in calf hippocampus, rat and calf substantia nigra, respectively) and 5-HT1C receptors (stimulation of inositol phosphates production in pig choroid plexus). Following compounds were studied: 5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine), TFMPP (1-(m-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine), mCPP (1-(m-chlorophenyl)piperazine), CGS 12066 (7-trifluoromethyl-4-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-pyrrolo[1,2-a] quinoxaline 1), isamoltane (CGP 361A, 1-(2-(1-pyrrolyl)-phenoxy)-3-isopropylamino-2-propranol), quipazine, 1-NP (1-(1-naphthyl)piperazine), and PAPP (LY165163, 1-[2-(4-aminophenyl)ethyl]-4-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)- piperazine). Among reported 5-HT1B receptor selective drugs, TFMPP had similar potency at 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C receptors, mCPP did not separate between 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C receptors, CGS 12066 was equipotent at 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors, and isamoltane was only slightly 5-HT1B versus 5-HT1A selective. Quipazine showed equal potency at 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C receptors and 1-NP did not discriminate between the four receptor subtypes. PAPP described as 5-HT1A receptor selective, was equally potent at 5-HT1A and 5-HT1D receptors. The potencies determined in second messenger studies were in good agreement with the affinity values determined in radioligand binding studies. Thus 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C and 5-HT1D receptors have different pharmacological profiles as predicted from radioligand binding studies. Despite claims to the contrary, none of the tested compounds had actual selectivity for a given 5-HT1 receptor subtype.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The radioligand binding characteristics of 125I-R-(-)4-iodo-2,5-dimethoxyphenylisopropylamine [125I-R-(-)DOI] and 3H-ketanserin were compared in rat and bovine cortical membranes. In rat cortex, 125I-R-(-)DOI labels a relatively low density of binding sites (Bmax = 2.5 +/- 0.2 pmol/gm tissue) with high affinity (KD = 0.63 +/- 0.09 nM). In bovine cortex, specific binding of 125I-R-(-)DOI represents less than 20% of total binding at radioligand concentrations above 0.6 nM, and, therefore, the data cannot be analyzed adequately by Scatchard transformation. By contrast, 3H-ketanserin displays saturable, specific high-affinity binding in both rat cortex (KD = 1.0 +/- 0.1 nM; Bmax = 11 +/- 0.4 pmol/gm tissue) and bovine cortex (KD = 1.2 +/- 0.2 nM; Bmax = 5.3 +/- 0.4 pmol/gm tissue). Ki values for 30 drugs were determined for 125I-R-(-)DOI-labeled sites in rat cortex and 3H-ketanserin-labeled sites in bovine cortex. 5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) displays 250-fold higher selectivity for the 125I-R-(-)DOI-labeled sites (Ki = 3.0 +/- 0.7 nM) than for the 3H-ketanserin-labeled sites (Ki = 750 +/- 50 nM). Structural congeners of R-(-)DOI display 80- to 160-fold higher affinity for the 125I-R-(-)DOI binding site than for the 3H-ketanserin-labeled binding site. d-LSD and putative 5-HT2 antagonists are approximately equipotent at both sites. Significant correlations were found between drug affinities for 125I-R-(-)DOI-labeled sites in rat cortex and putative 5-HT2A sites labeled previously by 77Br-R-(-)DOB (r = 0.93, p less than 0.01), putative 5-HT2B sites labeled by 3H-ketanserin in bovine cortex (r = 0.63, p less than 0.01), and 5-HT1C binding sites that have been characterized by other investigators (r = 0.78, p less than 0.01). No significant correlations were found between drug affinities for 125I-R-(-)DOI-labeled sites in rat cortex and 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1D, or 5-HT3 sites, as determined by previous investigators. We conclude that 125I-R-(-)DOI labels a novel 5-HT binding site subtype (tentatively designated the 5-HT2A binding site) that is present in rat cortex but is either absent or minimally present in bovine cortex. By contrast, 3H-ketanserin labels both the putative 5-HT2A site in rat cortex as well as a separate, distinct recognition site that is present in both rat and bovine cortex, tentatively designated the 5-HT2B site.

The effects of serotonin receptor agonists and antagonists on the electrically (3 Hz) evoked 3H overflow were determined on pig brain cortex slices preincubated with 3H-serotonin and superfused with physiological salt solution containing indalpine (an inhibitor of serotonin uptake) plus phentolamine. The potencies of the serotonin receptor agonists and antagonists were compared with their affinities for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, and 5-HT1D binding sites in pig or rat tissue membranes; in addition, the potencies of the agonists were compared to their potencies in inhibiting adenylate cyclase activity in membranes of calf substantia nigra. In the superfusion experiments on pig brain cortex slices the following rank orders of potencies were obtained: agonists, serotonin greater than 5-methoxytryptamine = 5-carboxamidotryptamine greater than RU 24969 (5-methoxy-3(1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridin-4-yl)-1H-indole) greater than SDZ 21009 (4(3-terbutylamino-2-hydroxypropoxy)indol-2-carbonic-acid-isopr opylester) greater than or equal to yohimbine greater than or equal to cyanopindolol greater than 8-OH-DPAT (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin) greater than or equal to CGS 12066 B (7-trifluoromethyl-4(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline); ipsapirone and urapidil were ineffective; antagonists (antagonism determined against 5-methoxytryptamine as an agonist), metitepine greater than metergoline greater than mianserin. Propranolol, spiperone or mesulergine did not produce a shift of the concentration-response curve for 5-methoxytryptamine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

[3H]5-HT binding sites were analyzed in membranes prepared from the rabbit caudate nucleus (CN). [3H]5-HT labeled both 5-HT1A and 5-HT1C recognition sites, defined by nanomolar affinity for 8-OH-DPAT and mesulergine respectively; however, these represented only a fraction of total specific [3H]5-HT binding. Saturation experiments of [3H]5-HT binding in the presence of 100 nM 8-OH-DPAT and 100 nM mesulergine to block 5-HT1A and 5-HT1C sites revealed that non-5-HT1A/non-5-HT1C sites represented about 60% of the total 5-HT1 sites and that they exhibited saturable, high affinity, and homogeneous binding. The pharmacological profile of the non-5-HT1A/non-5-HT1C sites (designated 5-HT1R) also differed from that of 5-HT1B and 5-HT2 sites, but was similar to that of the 5-HT1D site. However, significant differences existed between the 5-HT1D and 5-HT1R sites for their Ki values for spiperone, spirilene (an analog of spiperone), metergoline, and methiothepin. The study of modulatory agents (calcium and GTP) also showed differences between the 5-HT1R and 5-HT1D sites. For example, the effects of GTP on agonist binding to the 5-HT1R sites were less than on the 5-HT1D sites in bovine caudate. In addition, calcium enhanced the effects of GTP on the 5-HT1R sites, whereas calcium inhibited the GTP effect on the 5-HT1D sites. The present findings demonstrate the presence of a high-affinity [3H]5-HT binding site in rabbit CN, designated 5-HT1R, that is different from previously defined 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, 5-HT1D, and 5-HT2 sites.

3H-5-Hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) binding sites were analyzed in bovine brain membranes. The addition of either the 5-HT1A-selective drug 8-OH-DPAT (100 nM) or the 5-HT1C-selective drug mesulergine (100 nM) to the assay resulted in a 5-10% decrease in specific 3H-5-HT binding. Scatchard analysis revealed that the simultaneous addition of both drugs decreased the Bmax of 3H-5-HT binding by 10-15% without affecting the KD value (1.8 +/- 0.3 nM). Competition studies using a series of pharmacologic agents revealed that the sites labeled by 3H-5-HT in bovine caudate in the presence of 100 nM 8-OH-DPAT and 100 nM mesulergine appear to be homogeneous. 5-HT1A selective agents such as 8-OH-DPAT, ipsapirone, and buspirone display micromolar affinities for these sites. RU 24969 and (-)pindolol are approximately 2 orders of magnitude less potent at these sites than at 5-HT1B sites which have been identified in rat brain. Agents displaying nanomolar potencies for 5-HT1C sites such as mianserin and mesulergine are 2-3 orders of magnitude less potent at the 3H-5-HT binding sites in bovine caudate. In addition, both 5-HT2- and 5-HT3-selective agents are essentially inactive at these binding sites. These 3H-5-HT sites display nanomolar affinity for 5-carboxyamidotryptamine, 5-methoxytryptamine, metergoline, and 5-HT. Apparent Ki values of 10-100 nM are obtained for d-LSD, RU 24969, methiothepin, tryptamine, methysergide, and yohimbine, whereas I-LSD and corynanthine are significantly less potent. In addition, these 3H-5-HT labeled sites are regulated by guanine nucleotides and calcium. Regional studies indicate that this class of sites is most dense in the basal ganglia but exists in all regions of bovine brain. These data therefore demonstrate the presence of a homogeneous class of 5-HT1 binding sites in bovine caudate that is pharmacologically distinct from previously defined 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, 5-HT2, and 5-HT3 receptor subtypes. We therefore suggest that this class of sites be designated the 5-HT1D subtype of binding sites labeled by 3H-5-HT.

High-affinity, specific [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) binding was analyzed in rat spinal cord homogenates. Drug competition studies were performed using 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) to compete selectively for 5-HT1A sites, RU 24969 to compete for 5-HT1B sites and mesulergine to compete for 5-HT1C sites. Competition data were analyzed by computer-assisted iterative curve-fitting analysis. The results demonstrate that 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C binding sites are present in rat spinal cord. In addition, approximately 33% of total 5-HT1 sites do not appear to represent either 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B or 5-HT1C binding sites. Therefore, 5-HT1D and/or some other 5-HT1 binding site subtype may also be present in rat spinal cord.

In human caudate and cortex membranes, [3H]serotonin ([3H]5-HT) labels 5-HT1A and 5-HT1C recognition sites which show nanomolar affinity for 8-OH-DPAT (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetralin) and mesulergine respectively, whereas no 5-HT1B binding could be identified. However, the majority of the sites labelled by [3H]5-HT (greater than or equal to 60% in cortex, 90% in caudate) are different from 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C sites. Competition experiments were performed in human caudate membranes incubated with [3H]5-HT in the presence of 100 nM 8-OH-DPAT and 100 nM mesulergine. Under those conditions, [3H]5-HT labelled an apparently homogeneous population of 5-HT1-like sites which display nanomolar affinity for tryptamines (5-carboxamido-tryptamine, (5-CT) greater than 5-HT greater than or equal to 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MeOT) greater than tryptamine) and some ergolines (metergoline greater than methysergide). In contrast, these sites showed low affinity for drugs with high affinity and/or selectivity for 5-HT1A (8-OH-DPAT, buspirone), 5-HT1B (21-009, RU 24969), 5-HT1C (mesulergine, mianserin) and 5-HT2 sites (ketanserin, cinanserin). The pharmacological profile of these sites is different from that of 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 sites but is consistent with the pharmacology of a 5-HT1-like receptor. It is very similar to that of the 5-HT1D site recently described in bovine brain by Heuring and Peroutka.
