The 5-HT1 receptor family comprises five different pharmacologic subtypes, designated 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C, 5-HT1D, and 5-HT1E, whose common property is to bind 5-HT with nanomolar affinity. Recent investigations with molecular biology approaches led to the cloning and sequencing of 5-HT1A receptors in the rat and in the human, and of the 5-HT1C receptor in the rat. Although the 5-HT1A and 5-HT1C protein binding subunits exhibit the same structure with seven hydrophobic transmembrane domains, an extracellular N terminal and an intracellular C tail, their respective amino-acid sequences are markedly different. Indeed, a higher degree of sequence homology is found between the 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors than between the former and 5-HT1A receptors, suggesting that the 5-HT1C subtype in fact belongs to the 5-HT2 class of central 5-HT receptors. All other 5-HT1 receptor subtypes are negatively coupled to adenylyl cyclase, whereas the 5-HT1C subtype, like 5-HT2 receptors, is positively coupled to phospholipase C. The respective regional distributions and regulatory properties, as well as pending questions regarding the ultrastructural localization, synthesis, mutual interactions, and axonal flow of 5-HT1 receptor subtypes, are also discussed.

Chronic treatment (4 days) of ovariectomized rats with estrogen produced a two-fold shift to the left (with no change in the maximal percent inhibition) in the concentration response curve for the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity by 5-HT, but did not alter curves for R-PIA (adenosine A1 agonist) or Gpp(NH)p (to activate Gi). Furthermore, estrogen treatment had no effect on the number or affinity of 5-HT1A binding sites labeled with [3H]8-OH-DPAT. These data, when considered with the results of previous studies, suggest that estrogen treatment may selectively enhance 5-HT1A-mediated responses in rat hippocampus.

5-Hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) stimulates basal adenylyl cyclase activity in membranes from guinea pig or rat hippocampi, but 5-HT inhibits forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in these same membranes. The opposing effects of 5-HT on adenylyl cyclase activity indicate that distinct 5-HT receptors, positively and negatively coupled to adenylyl cyclase, are present in these membranes. Stimulation of adenylyl cyclase activity is mediated by two distinct 5-HT receptors. The receptor with lower affinity for 5-HT, designated as RL, is apparently homologous with a 5-HT receptor present in rat collicular membranes, but it is not homologous with the stimulatory receptor characterized in neuroblastoma hybrid cell (NCB-20) membranes. The receptor with higher affinity for 5-HT is homologous with the 5-HT1A binding site. The magnitude of stimulation by 5-HT1A receptors is variable with respect to stimulation by RL and is sometimes completely absent. Inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity, in membranes from either rat or guinea pig hippocampus or rat cortex, is a functional correlate of the 5-HT1A binding site. This inhibitory response was used to determine the pharmacological characteristics of drugs that reportedly have high affinity for 5-HT1A binding sites, such as 1-[2-(4-aminophenyl)ethyl]-4-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (PAPP) and (-)pindolol. PAPP inhibited adenylyl cyclase activity in guinea pig hippocampal membranes with an EC50 value of 27 +/- 3 nM. (-)Pindolol was a partial agonist in inhibiting adenylyl cyclase activity in guinea pig and rat hippocampal membranes. Because of the low intrinsic activity of (-)pindolol, it was tested as an antagonist of the inhibition produced by 5-HT1A receptor agonists in rat hippocampal membranes. The Kb of (-)pindolol was 40 nM as measured by a Schild plot. (-)Propranolol was a simple competitive antagonist at the rat hippocampal receptor with a Kb value of 550 nM. In summary, guinea pig and rat hippocampal membranes possess two distinct populations of 5-HT receptors, a 5-HT receptor that mediates inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity and is pharmacologically homologous with the 5-HT1A binding site, and a stimulatory receptor that appears to be homologous with the 5-HT receptor first characterized in infant rat collicular membranes.

NAN-190 has been reported to be a 5-HT1A antagonist in drug discrimination studies. In order to determine if the effect of NAN-190 was directly due to competitive inhibition at 5-HT1A receptors, 5-HT1A-mediated inhibition of adenylyl cyclase in hippocampal membranes was investigated. NAN-190 (10(-10)-10(-5) M), by itself, was found to have no effect on forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase. NAN-190, however, did shift the 5-carboxamidotryptamine (a 5-HT1A agonist) log-concentration inhibition curve to the right in a concentration-dependent manner, typical of competitive antagonism. Schild analysis revealed a KB of 1.9 nM for NAN-190. Thus, NAN-190 appeared to be a potent competitive 5-HT1A antagonist using the in vitro adenylyl cyclase system. [3H]NAN-190 was synthesized and its 5-HT1A receptor binding properties were characterized and compared with the 5-HT1A agonist radioligand, [3H]8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin ([3H]8-OH-DPAT). The 5-HT1A agonists, serotonin (5-HT) and 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) competed with equal affinities regardless of the radioligand used to label the 5-HT1A receptors. [3H]NAN-190 and [3H]8-OH-DPAT labeled the same number of sites in rat hippocampus, striatum and frontal cortex. Guanosine-5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S) and 5-guanylyl-imidodiphosphate (GppNHp), non-hydrolyzable analogs of GTP, inhibited specific [3H]NAN-190 binding. Adenosine-5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate (ATP gamma S) and 5-adenylyl-imidodiphosphate (AppNHp) were ineffective. This guanylyl nucleotide-specific effect is generally associated with agonist radioligand binding to a GTP-binding protein coupled receptor. However, [3H]8-OH-DPAT was far more sensitive than [3H]NAN-190 to the Bmax reducing effects of GTP and GTp gamma S. We propose that the test for a reduction in Bmax by non-hydrolyzable guanylyl nucleotides may be more sensitive than other tests for quantifying agonist activity and may demonstrate that NAN-190 has low intrinsic activity. In summary, NAN-190 displayed antagonist-like properties in functional models of 5-HT1A receptor activity and possibly partial agonist-like properties in radioligand binding experiments.

Distinct membrane receptors that elicit similar cellular responses may share elements of signal transduction. In the present study, rat hippocampal adenosine (AD) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors were chosen to test this possibility using biochemical and electrophysiological techniques. Responses elicited by the AD receptor that mediates the inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in rat hippocampal membranes and hyperpolarization of resting membrane potential (RMP) in rat hippocampal pyramidal cells were characterized and compared, in the same preparation, with those analogous responses elicited by the 5-HT1A receptor. A series of AD agonists including the selective AD A1 agonist (R)-phenylisopropyladenosine [(R)-PIA] inhibited forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in rat hippocampal membranes in a concentration-dependent manner. Cyclopentyltheophylline (CPT), a selective AD A1 antagonist, was a potent, competitive antagonist of this response with a dissociation constant (Kb) of 6 nM (Schild analysis). The rank order of agonist EC50 values and antagonist Kb values, as well as stereoselectivity, are consistent with the classification of this receptor as the AD A1 receptor. Spiperone, a potent 5-HT1A antagonist, competitively antagonized 5-HT-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in rat hippocampal membranes with a Kb value of 14 nM. Intracellular recording techniques revealed that AD, (R)-PIA, 5-HT, and 5-carboxyamidotryptamine (5-CT) elicited concentration-dependent hyperpolarization of RMP within the same hippocampal pyramidal cell. The maximal hyperpolarization obtained for the AD or 5-HT analogs was the same for individual pyramidal cells. CPT and spiperone antagonized the hyperpolarization by (R)-PIA and 5-CT, respectively. Saturating concentrations of spiperone failed to antagonize (R)-PIA-mediated responses and CPT did not block responses elicited by 5-HT in either the biochemical or electrophysiological preparations. The combination of saturating concentrations of 5-HT and (R)-PIA evoked nonadditive biochemical responses relative to those observed with (R)-PIA alone. Similarly, electrophysiological experiments conducted under voltage-clamp conditions demonstrated that maximally effective concentrations of AD and 5-CT exhibited nonadditive behavior. Because the amount of outward current elicited when these agonists were coperfused was significantly less than the algebraic sum of the currents evoked individually by these agents, we infer that a population of AD A1 and 5-HT1A receptors activates a common pool of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

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.

Imipramine, a tricyclic antidepressant, acts acutely to block the reuptake of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE). However, imipramine's action as an antidepressant takes several weeks to develop. This study investigated acute and chronic effects of imipramine on intracellularly-recorded responses mediated by 5-HT and beta-adrenergic receptors on pyramidal cells from area CA1 of rat hippocampal slices maintained in vitro. Addition of 10 microM imipramine in the perfusion medium sinistrally shifted the 5-HT1A concentration-response curve for membrane hyperpolarization and the 5-HT concentration-response curve for the reduction in the amplitude of the slow afterhyperpolarization (AHP) elicited by a train of action potentials. After two weeks of treatment with imipramine (10 mg/kg daily i.p. injections or s.c. osmotic mini-pumps) the responses to 5-HT were not altered. In contrast the concentration-response curve for the beta-adrenergic mediated reduction in AHP amplitude was significantly altered; there was a reduction in Emax and a log unit dextral shift in EC50. There was no change in the concentration-response curve for the beta-adrenergic mediated depolarization. These data are in agreement with previous biochemical results reporting a decrease in beta-adrenergic receptor mediated stimulation in adenylyl cyclase and down-regulation of beta-receptor in cortex and hippocampus. These findings suggest that a consequence of long-term imipramine treatment is a decrease in the augmentation of cell excitation normally produced by beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation.

Regulation of phosphate uptake was studied in HeLa cell lines after transfection with DNA encoding the human 5-HT1A receptor. Phosphate uptake was saturable and greater than 90% sodium-dependent, with Vmax approximately 30-35% without changing Km. Treatment with 5-HT or the 5-HT1A-specific agonist 8-OH-2-(di-n-propylamino)1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene increased Vmax approximately 40% without affecting Km. This effect was blocked by pretreatment with the 5-HT1 antagonists, methiothepine and spiperone, or pertussis toxin. Surprisingly, the stimulation was not secondary to an inhibition of adenylyl cyclase because 5-HT stimulated phosphate uptake approximately 20% in the presence of 1 mM 8-Br-cAMP. Rather, the primary pathway linked to the stimulation of phosphate uptake involved activation of protein kinase C because (i) 5-HT measurably activated protein kinase C in these cells, (ii) activators of protein kinase C (phorbol esters and diacylglycerol analogues) stimulated phosphate uptake in these cells (iii) the half-maximal doses for 5-HT-induced phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis and stimulation of phosphate uptake were virtually equivalent, and both effects were equally sensitive to pertussis toxin, and (iv) the stimulation was markedly attenuated in cells made deficient in protein kinase C. These results demonstrate that the stimulation of phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis by the 5-HT1A receptor can generate physiologically measurable effects on cellular transport and suggest that such accessory pathways may play a prominent role in signal transduction.

We have studied the coupling of galanin and 5-HT1A receptors with adenylyl cyclase in the hypothalamus, the entorhinal cortex and the hippocampus of the rat brain. Furthermore, we have evaluated the effects of simultaneous activation of galanin and 5-HT1A receptors on adenylyl cyclase activity. Galanin-(1-29) and galanin-(1-15) showed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in the hypothalamus and entorhinal cortex. No clear effects were observed in the hippocampus. Neither galanin-(1-29) nor galanin-(1-15) had any effect on the basal activity of adenylyl cyclase in these regions. The selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-OH-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) induced a dose-dependent inhibition of forskolin stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in the hippocampus and the entorhinal cortex. 5-HT induced an inhibition in the hypothalamus. In all regions the effects could be fully counteracted by methiothepin. 5-HT was shown to stimulate the basal activity of adenylyl cyclase in the hippocampus and the entorhinal cortex. The effects could be counteracted by methiothepin. When galanin-(1-29) and 5-HT/8-OH-DPAT were incubated simultaneously additive inhibitory effects, but no synergistic interactions, could be observed on the stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity. In conclusion, galanin and 5-HT1A receptors seem to be linked to different independent pools of G proteins, indicating that the previously demonstrated intramembrane interactions between galanin and 5-HT1A receptors involve a mechanism not directly related to adenylyl cyclase.

alpha2-Adrenergic receptors (alpha 2AR) functionally couple not only to Gi but also to Gs. We investigated the amino-terminal portion of the third intracellular loop of the human alpha 2AAR (alpha 2C10) for potential Gs coupling domains using site-directed mutagenesis and recombinant expression in several different cell types. A deletion mutant and four chimeric receptors consisting of the alpha 2AAR with the analogous sequence from the 5-HT1A receptor (a Gi-coupled receptor) and the beta 2AR (a Gs-coupled receptor) were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, Chinese hamster fibroblasts, or COS-7 cells and examined for their ability to mediate stimulation or inhibition of membrane adenylyl cyclase activity or whole cell cAMP accumulation. In stably expressing Chinese hamster ovary cells, deletion of amino acids 221-231, which are in close proximity to the fifth transmembrane domain, eliminated alpha 2C10-mediated stimulation of adenylyl cyclase activity, while alpha 2C10-mediated inhibition was only moderately affected. This suggested that this region is important for Gs coupling, prompting construction of the chimeric receptor mutants. Substitution of amino acids 218-235 with 5-HT1A receptor sequence entirely ablated agonist-promoted Gs coupling, as compared with a 338 +/- 29% stimulation of adenylyl cyclase activity observed with the wild-type alpha 2C10. In contrast, Gi coupling for this mutant remained fully intact (57 +/- 2% versus 52 +/- 1% inhibition for wild-type alpha 2C10). Similar substitution with beta 2AR sequence had no effect on Gi coupling but did reduce Gs coupling. Two additional mutated alpha 2C10 containing smaller substitutions of the amino-terminal region with 5-HT1A receptor sequence at residues 218-228 or 229-235 were then studied. While Gi coupling remained intact with both mutants, Gs coupling was ablated in the former but not the latter mutant receptor. Similar results were obtained using transfected Chinese hamster fibroblasts (which exclusively display alpha 2AR-Gi coupling) and COS-7 cells (which exclusively display alpha 2AR-Gs coupling). Thus, a critical determinant for Gs coupling is contained within 11 amino acids (218-228) of the amino-terminal region of the third intracellular loop localized directly adjacent to the fifth transmembrane domain. Taken together, these studies demonstrate the presence of a discrete structural determinant for agonist-promoted alpha 2AR-Gs coupling, which is distinct and separable from the structural requirements for alpha 2AR-Gi coupling.
