Intracellular electrophysiological methods were used to examine the effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT), 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MeOT), 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxy-N-(4-[1-azabicyclo[3,3,1]nonyl]) benzamide hydrochloride (renzapride), cis-4-amino-5-chloro-N[1-[3- (4-fluorophenoxy)propyl]-3-methoxy-4-piperidinyl[-2-methoxybenzamide monohydrate (cisapride) and endo-N-(8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3-yl)-2,3-dihydro-3- (1-methyl)ethyl-2-oxo-1 H-benzimidazole-1-carboxamidehydrochloride (BIMU 8) on noncholineric slow excitatory postsynaptic potentials (slow EPSPs) in myenteric afterhyperpolarization (AH) neurons of guinea pig ileum. 5-HT (0.01-1 microM) and 5-CT (0.001-0.1 microM) produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of slow EPSPs. The 5-HT1A receptor antagonist 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-4-[4-(2-phthalimidobutyl]piperazine (NAN-190) produced rightward shifts in 5-HT and 5-CT concentration-response curves; facilitation of slow EPSPs was never observed. 5-MeOT caused a depolarization and inhibited spike afterhyperpolarizations in a concentration-dependent manner but this effect was not blocked by the 5-HT3/5-HT4 receptor antagonist, tropisetron (1 microM). Renzapride (0.01-0.3 microM), cisapride (0.01-1.0 microM) and BIMU 8 (0.01-1.0 microM) did not change the membrane potential of any neuron tested. Renzapride and BIMU 8 did not change the amplitude of slow EPSPs. In 13 of 19 neurons cisapride did not change the amplitude of slow EPSPs; in 6 neurons cisapride (1 microM) reversibly inhibited the slow EPSP. Responses to substance P which mimicked the slow EPSP were not affected by cisapride.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

1. The aim of the present study was to test the effects of DAU 6215 (endo-N-(8-methyl-8-azabicyclo-[3.2.1]-octo-3-yl)-2,3-dihydro-2-ox o-1H- benzimidazole-1-carboxamide carboxamide hydrochloride), a newly synthesized, selective 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) antagonist, on the cell membrane properties and on characterized 5-HT-mediated responses of pyramidal neurones in the hippocampal CA1 region. 2. Administration of DAU 6215, even at concentrations several hundred fold its Ki, did not affect the cell membrane properties of pyramidal neurones, nor modify extracellularly recorded synaptic potentials, evoked by stimulating the Schaffer's collaterals. 3. Micromolar concentrations (15-30 microM) of 5-HT elicited several responses in pyramidal neurones that are mediated by distinct 5-HT receptor subtypes. DAU 6215 did not antagonize the 5-HT1A-induced membrane hyperpolarization and conductance increase, a response that was blocked by the selective 5-HT1A antagonist NAN-190 (1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-4-[4-(2-phtalamido)butyl- piperazine). Similarly, DAU 6215 did not affect the membrane depolarization and decrease in amplitude of the afterhyperpolarization, elicited by the activation of putative 5-HT4 receptors. 4. 5-HT increased the frequency of spontaneous postsynaptic potentials (s.p.s.ps) recorded in pyramidal neurones loaded with chloride. In agreement with previous observations, most of the s.p.s.ps were reversed GABAergic events, produced by the activation of 5-HT3 receptors on interneurones, because they persisted in the presence of the glutamate NMDA and non NMDA antagonists, D-aminophosphonovaleric acid (APV; 50 microM) and 6,7-dinitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (DNQX; 25 microM), and were elicited by the selective 5-HT3 agonist, 2-methyl-5-HT (2-Me-5-HT, 50 microM). 5. The increase in frequency of s.p.s.ps induced by 5-HT was significantly antagonized by DAU 6215 in 70% of the cases, whereas the 5-HT3 antagonist always suppressed the effect of 2-Me-5-HT, at concentrations as low as 60 nM.6. The antagonistic effect of DAU 6215 was also tested on the 5-HT3-mediated block of induction of long-term potentiation (LTP), elicited by a primed burst (PB) stimulation. Extracellular recordings showed that low concentrations (60 nM) of DAU 6215 suppressed the inhibitory action of 5-HT onPB-induced LTP, without affecting the 5-HTlA-induced reduction in the amplitude of the population spike.7. These results provide evidence that DAU 6215 is an effective antagonist of the 5-HT3-mediated responses in the central nervous system and may offer a cellular correlate for the pharmacological effects of DAU 6215 as an anxiolytic and cognition enhancer.

The binding of [3H]endo-N-(8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1.]oct-3-yl)- 2,3-dihydro-3-ethyl-2-oxo-1H-benzimidazole-1-carboxamide hydrochloride ([3H]BIMU-1) a benzimidazolone with high affinity for 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)3 and 4 5-HT3 and 5-HT4 receptors, was characterized in NG-108 cells and guinea pig hippocampus. Specific, heat-sensitive, binding of [3H]BIMU-1 was detected in both NG-108 cells and guinea pig hippocampus. In NG-108 cell membranes, a portion of the specific binding was displaced by 5-HT3 receptor ligands with affinities and specificity consistent with the labeling of 5-HT3 receptors. The residual specific binding was insensitive to serotonin (Ki > 1 mM) but was displaced by haloperidol (Ki of 50 nM). In guinea pig hippocampal membranes [3H]BIMU-1 binding was insensitive to serotonin but was displaced by haloperidol, and 1,3-di-o-tolyl-guanidine with affinities appropriate for the labeling of a sigma binding site (Ki of 6.3 and 31 nM, respectively). The affinity profile of ligands displacing [3H] BIMU-1 binding in guinea pig hippocampus was consistent with the selective labeling of a sigma-2 binding site because the sigma-1 selective benzomorphans, (+)-pentazocine and (+)-N-allylnormetazocine, only weakly displaced the binding (Ki greater than 1 microM). The affinity of BIMU-1 for sigma-2 binding sites (Ki = 32 nM) was 200-fold greater than that for sigma-1 binding sites (Ki = 6.3 microM), dopamine (D1 and D2), other serotonin (5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C) and muscarinic (M1, M2, M3 and M4) receptors (Ki > 10 microM). The distribution of haloperidol-sensitive [3H]BIMU-1 binding was also consistent with the labeling of sigma-2 binding sites. These data suggest that [3H]BIMU-1 selectively labels sigma-2 binding sites in guinea pig hippocampus. [3H]BIMU-1, under appropriate experimental conditions, is thus the first sigma-2 binding site radioligand to be characterized.

N(G)-(Nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase, induces catalepsy in mice. The objective of the present work was to investigate if serotonergic drugs are able to modulate this effect. Results showed that the cataleptogenic effect of L-NOARG (40 mg/kg) in male albino-Swiss mice was enhanced by pre-treatment with (+)-N-tert-butyl-3-(4-[2-methoxyphenyl]piperazin-1-yl)-2-phenylpro panamide ((+)-WAY-100135, 5 or 10 mg/kg), a 5-HT1A-selective receptor antagonist, and by ketanserin (5 or 10 mg/kg), a 5-HT2A receptor and alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonist. Prazosin (3 or 5 mg/kg), an alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonist, and endo-N-(8-methyl-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-3yl)-2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimet hyl-indole-1-carboxamide HCl (BRL-46470A, 0.05 or 0.5 mg/kg), a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, did not interfere with L-NOARG-induced catalepsy. Ritanserin (3 or 10 mg/kg), a 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C receptor antagonist, tended to enhance the effect of L-NOARG. These results confirm that interference with the formation of nitric oxide induces catalepsy in mice, and suggest that this effect is modulated by 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors.
