The selective 5-HT1A receptor radioligand, [11C]WAY-100635 ([11C]N-2-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl)ethyl)-N-2- pyridyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide), has been injected intravenously into healthy male volunteers and studied by PET (positron emission tomography). The results provide the first delineation of 5-HT1A receptors in living human brain and demonstrate the potential to use [11C]WAY-100635 for the study of central 5-HT1A receptors in patients with psychiatric and neurological disorders and for the investigation of the pharmacology of drugs acting on the central nervous system.

N-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2- pyridinyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride (WAY-100635) is a potent and selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist in a slice preparation of the guinea pig dorsal raphe nucleus: the inhibitory actions on 5-HT neuronal firing of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin), 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) and 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), but not those of baclofen, were abolished by 30 nM WAY-100635. The selective 5-HT1D receptor antagonist N-[4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]-2'- methyl-4'-(5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl) [1,1-biphenyl]-4-carboxamide (GR127935, 300 nM) did not attenuate the 5-HT induced inhibition, indicating that 5-HT1D receptors do not contribute to the inhibitory action of exogenous 5-HT on 5-HT neurones.

N-(2-(4-(2-Methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl)ethyl)-N-(2- pyridyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride (WAY-100635) is a new, potent and selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist. We have evaluated radiolabelled WAY-100635 as a prospective radioligand for positron emission tomography (PET) by studying biodistribution in rat ex vivo. After intravenous injection, [O-methyl-3H]WAY-100635 cleared rapidly from plasma but was retained in brain. Specific binding was quantified from kinetic studies, using a reference-tissue compartment model, fitting for binding potential (k3/k4). The regional variation in binding potential correlated with the known distribution of 5-HT1A receptors. Saturation studies gave Bmax values in vivo that were consistent with those reported in vitro. At 60 min after injection, the ratio of radioactivity in 5-HT1A receptor-rich regions (e.g. septum, entorhinal cortex and hippocampus) to that in cerebellum reached approximately 16. Pre-dosing the rats with WAY-100635 (2 mg/kg) reduced this ratio to one, whereas similar pre-dosing with citalopram (5-HT uptake site inhibitor), prazosin (alpha 1A-adrenoceptor antagonist) or idazoxan (alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist) caused little or no reduction. Substantial (77%) blockade of [3H]WAY-100635 binding was achieved with the 5-HT1A receptor agonist, 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), and the partial agonists, ipsapirone and buspirone. Thus, the properties of WAY-100635 are such that, when labelled with carbon-11, it could provide a radioligand suitable for clinical and pharmacological investigations of central 5-HT1A receptors in man using PET.

Numerous studies have demonstrated the stimulatory effect of 5-HT1A receptor agonists, such as 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), on plasma corticotrophin (ACTH) levels in the rat. However, until recently the lack of a selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist has hampered mechanistic studies in this area. In this study we examined the effects of the selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist N-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1- piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2-pyridinyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride (WAY100635) on plasma ACTH levels and on the elevation of ACTH induced by the 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT in the conscious rat. The basal plasma ACTH level was 41.0 +/- 1.8 pg/ml. 8-OH-DPAT increased ACTH levels at doses of 100 and 300 micrograms/kg with maximum increases of 551 and 546% respectively occurring 10 min post-injection. WAY100635 had no effects per se on plasma ACTH at doses up to 100 micrograms/kg, indicating it has no 5-HT1A receptor agonist properties. WAY100635 dose-dependently blocked the elevation of ACTH induced by 8-OH-DPAT, the minimum effective dose being 10 micrograms/kg. The present results indicate that 8-OH-DPAT elevates plasma ACTH levels by stimulating 5-HT1A receptors, a conclusion that is consistent with the findings of previous studies using non-selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonists such as pindolol.

The potent and selective 5-HT1A antagonist WAY 100635 (N-[2-]4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2- pyridinyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide) was radiolabeled with 11C in high specific activity, and the in vivo properties of this radioligand were assessed in the brains of rats and monkeys. Following i.v. tail vein injection in rats, [11C]WAY 100635 rapidly penetrated into brain tissue and was retained over a 30-90 min time period in a manner consistent with the known distribution of 5-HT1A receptors. Pretreatment of rats with the selective 5-HT1A agonist (+/-)-8-OH-DPAT effectively blocked the retention of radioactivity in brain regions known to contain high densities of 5-HT1A receptors. The hippocampus-to-cerebellum radioactivity concentration ratio reached a maximum of 16:1 at 60 min post injection. Following i.v. injection of [11C]WAY 100635 in rhesus monkeys, the concentrations of radioactivity in brain regions were consistent with the reported distribution of 5-HT1A receptors in primates, and the frontal cortex-to-cerebellum ratio reached 5.5:1 at 80 min post injection. Pretreatment of the monkeys with (+/-)-8-OH-DPAT reduced this ratio to 1.4:1, and injection of (+/-)-8-OH-DPAT 20 min after the injection of [11C]WAY 100635 significantly displaced frontal cortex binding. The in vivo properties of [11C]WAY 100635 in rats and monkeys strongly support the future utility of this radioligand for imaging 5-HT1A receptors using positron emission tomography (PET).

Rats were trained to discriminate the specific 5-HT1A receptor agonist (+)-flesinoxan (R(+)-N(-)[2[4-(2,3-dihydro-2-2-hydroxy-methyl-1,4- benzodioxin-5-yl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-4-fluorobenzoamide) (1.5 mg/kg p.o.) from water in a two-lever operant procedure. Generalization tests were conducted with the enantiomers and racemate of flesinoxan and the 5-HT1A receptor antagonists (S)-UH301 ((S)-5-fluoro-8-hydroxy-2-(dipropylamino)-tetralin) and WAY-100635 ((N(-)[2(-)[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2-pyridinyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride). (S)-UH301, WAY-100635 and fentanyl were investigated for their antagonistic properties. The (+)-flesinoxan stimulus generalized to (-)-flesinoxan and the racemate. The ED50 values for generalization corresponded well with the affinities of the enantiomers and the racemate for the 5-HT1A receptor. The flesinoxan cue could not be mimicked by (S)-UH301 or WAY-100635, but (S)-UH301 reduced response rates. Antagonism tests showed that both (S)-UH301 and WAY-100635 dose dependently antagonized the flesinoxan cue, with ID50 values of 0.52 and 0.03 mg/kg s.c., respectively. Fentanyl had no significant antagonistic properties. It is concluded that rats can learn to discriminate orally administered (+)-flesinoxan from water. The generalization of flesinoxan to the (-)-enantiomer and the antagonism of flesinoxan's cue by specific 5-HT1A receptor antagonists are further evidence for the involvement of flesinoxan's 5-HT1A receptor agonistic properties in its discriminative stimulus effects.

WAY-100635 (N-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2- pyridinyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride) is an achiral phenylpiperazine derivative that binds with high affinity and selectivity to the 5-HT1A receptor. WAY-100635 displaced specific binding of the 5-HT1A radioligand, [3H]8-OH-DPAT (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin), to rat hippocampal membranes with a pIC50 of 8.87. This represented a greater than 100-fold selectivity relative to binding at other 5-HT receptor subtypes and major neurotransmitter receptor, reuptake and ion channel sites. In functional assays, WAY-100635 was a potent 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, with no evidence of any 5-HT1A receptor agonist or partial agonist activity. In the isolated guinea-pig ileum WAY-100635 was a potent and, at high concentrations, an insurmountable antagonist of the 5-HT1A receptor agonist action of 5-carboxamidotryptamine, with an apparent pA2 value (at 0.3 nM) of 9.71. WAY-100635 blocked the inhibitory action of 8-OH-DPAT on dorsal raphe neuronal firing in the anaesthetised rat at doses which had no inhibitory action per se. In behavioural models, WAY-100635 itself induced no overt behavioural changes but potently antagonised the behavioural syndrome induced by 8-OH-DPAT in the rat and guinea-pig (minimum effective dose = 0.003 mg/kg s.c. and ID50 = 0.01 mg/kg s.c., respectively). WAY-100635 also blocked the hypothermia induced by 8-OH-DPAT in the mouse and rat with ID50 values of 0.01 mg/kg s.c. These data indicate that WAY-100635 will be used as a standard antagonist in further studies of 5-HT1A receptor function.

Systemic administration of R(+)-8-OH-DPAT (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin), a selective serotonin (5-hydroxy-tryptamine, 5-HT)1A receptor agonist (25, 50, and 100 mu g/kg s.c.), administered 30 min prior to d-amphetamine, significantly inhibited the d-amphetamine sulfate (1.0 mg/kg s.c.)-induced increase in extracellular dopamine levels in the striatum and nucleus accumbens of freely moving rats, as determined by in vivo microdialysis. The ability of R(+)-8-OH-DPAT (50 mu g/kg s.c.) to inhibit d-amphetamine sulfate (1.0 mg/kg s.c.)-induced increase in extracellular dopamine levels was abolished by WAY 100,635 (n-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-n-(2-pyridinyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride), a selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist (100 mu g/kg s.c.), administered 5 min prior to R(+)-8-OH-DPAT in both regions. These results indicate that the 5-HT1A receptor may exert an inhibitory effect on amphetamine-induced dopamine release.

Systemic administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) to guinea pigs causes species-specific, rhythmic, whole body jerks (myoclonic jerks), the frequency and amplitude of which were measured in an automated apparatus. The brain penetrant 5-HT1D receptor agonist 3-(2-dimethylaminoethyl)-4-chloro-5-propoxyindole hemifumarate (SKF 99101H) (3-30 mg/kg i.p.) and the selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist (+/-)8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) (0.3-3 mg/kg s.c.) dose dependently potentiated the frequency and intensity of myoclonic jerks caused by 5-HTP (100 mg/kg). Cotreatment of guinea pigs with 8-OH-DPAT (3 mg/kg s.c.) and SKF 99101H (30 mg/kg i.p.), which were inactive when given alone, gave a marked myoclonic jerk response. Conversely, the myoclonic jerk response to higher doses of 5-HTP (150 mg/kg i.p.) was dose dependently blocked by the 5-HT1D receptor antagonist GR 127935 (N-[4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]-2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-1 ,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)[1,1'-biphenyl]4-carboxamide oxalate) (ED50 0.32 mg/kg i.p.) and the selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist WAY 100635 (N-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2-pyridinyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide trihydrochloride) (ED50 0.33 mg/kg i.p.). The response to 5-HTP (150 mg/kg i.p.) was also blocked by ritanserin (0.01-0.3 mg/kg i.p.). Our data therefore confirm previous reports concerning the effects of 5-HT2A/2C receptor blockade on 5-HTP induced myoclonic jerks and suggest that both 5-HT1D and 5-HT1A receptors play an important role in mediating this behavioural response.

The 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, WAY-100635 [N-(2-(4-(2-methoxyphenyl)- 1-piperazinyl)ethyl)-N-(2-pyridyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide], was labelled in its carbonyl group with carbon-11 (t1/2 = 20.4 min), injected intravenously into healthy male volunteers and studied with positron emission tomography (PET). The acquired data provide exquisite delineation of 5-HT1A receptors in brain, with the ratio of radioactivity uptake in receptor-rich regions, such as medial temporal cortex, to that in receptor-devoid cerebellum reaching 25 by 60 min after radioligand injection. Application of biomathematical modelling to the data revealed high values (7.8) for binding potential, a measure of Bmax/Kp, in receptor-rich regions. Only very polar radioactive metabolites were present in plasma, a finding consistent with the low level of nonspecific binding seen in cerebellum. [carbonyl-11C]WAY-100635 is concluded to be far superior to the previously reported [0-methyl-11C]WAY-100635 as a radioligand for PET studies of 5-HT1A receptors in human brain.
