The anticonflict activity of m-CPP, a non-selective agonist of 5-HT receptors, was studied in the drinking conflict test in rats. m-CPP administered in doses of 0.125-0.5 mg/kg increased the number of punished licks, the maximum effect having been observed after a dose of 0.25 mg/kg. The anticonflict effect of m-CPP (0.25 mg/kg) was antagonized by the non-selective 5-HT antagonist metergoline (1-4 mg/kg) and by the beta-adrenoceptor blocker SDZ 21009 (2 and 4 mg/kg) with affinity for 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors. On the other hand, the 5-HT1A receptor antagonist NAN-190 (0.5 and 1 mg/kg), the 5-HT2 receptor antagonist ritanserin (0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg), and the beta-blockers betaxolol (8 mg/kg) and ICI 118,551 (8 mg/kg) with no affinity for 5-HT receptors did not affect the effect of m-CPP. The effect of m-CPP was not modified, either, in animals with the 5-HT lesion produced by p-chloroamphetamine. These results suggest that the anticonflict effect of m-CPP described above results from stimulation of 5-HT1B receptors--most probably these which are located postsynaptically.

The effects of 5-HT1A-receptor agonists 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and gepirone, a 5-HT1A/5-HT2-receptor agonist 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeODMT) and a 5-HT2-receptor agonist (+-)1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane ((+/)DOI) on the 5-HT1C-receptor-mediated exploratory hypoactivity in rats, induced by m-trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (TFMPP) or m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP), were studied in the open field test. (+/-)DOI attenuated the effects of TFMPP and abolished those of m-CPP (not dose-dependently). 5-MeODMT showed a weak antagonistic action only at one, intermediate dose. The effects of TFMPP or m-CPP were not changed by 8-OH-DPAT or gepirone. At the same time, 8-OH-DPAT, gepirone, 5-MeODMT and (+/-)DOI themselves practically did not change the exploratory activity of rats. The obtained results permit an assumption that a functional interaction exists between 5-HT1C- and 5-HT2-receptors, but not between 5-HT1C- and 5-HT1A-ones.

TFMPP and m-CPP, non-selective 5-HT agonists, administered in doses of 1-20 mg/kg evoked hyperthermia in rats at a high ambient temperature (28 degrees C). The hyperthermic effect of TFMPP (10 mg/kg) or m-CPP (10 mg/kg) was dose-dependently antagonized by the 5-HT1c and 5-HT2 receptor antagonists mesulergine (0.5-4 mg/kg), ketanserin (0.6-2.5 mg/kg) and ritanserin (0.5-2 mg/kg) and by the non-selective 5-HT antagonist metergoline (0.5-1 mg/kg), or was attenuated by the 5-HT1A, 5-HT2 and dopamine receptor antagonist spiperone (3 mg/kg, but not 0.3 or 1 mg/kg). On the other hand, the 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and beta adrenoceptor antagonists pindolol (2 mg/kg) and cyanopindolol (2 mg/kg), the 5-HT1A receptor agonist/antagonist ipsapirone (10 and 35 mg/kg) and haloperidol (0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg) showed a tendency towards enhancing the TFMPP- or m-CPP-induced hyperthermia. The 5-HT1A and alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist NAN-190 (1-4 mg/kg), the 5-HT3 antagonists tropisetron (0.01-1 mg/kg) and zacopride (0.5 and 1 mg/kg), the beta-blockers betaxolol (8 mg/kg) and ICI 118, 551 (8 mg/kg), which have no affinity for 5-HT receptors and prazosin (1 mg/kg), did not affect the hyperthermic effect of TFMPP or m-CPP. The hyperthermias studied were not modified, in animals with 5-HT lesion produced by p-chloroamphetamine (PCA) either. All the drugs used as putative receptor antagonists, as well as PCA, did not change or decreased (ipsapirone) the body temperature in heat-adapted rats.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Administration of m-chlorophenylpiperazine [m-CPP, a serotonin (5-HT) agonist] to rats increases plasma concentrations of prolactin and corticosterone. Pretreatment with various doses of ritanserin (5-HT1C/5-HT2 antagonist), ICS 205-930 and MDL-72222 (5-HT3 antagonists), iodocyanopindolol or CG361A (beta adrenoceptor antagonists) and spiperone (5-HT1A/5-HT2 antagonist) did not attenuate m-CPP-induced increases in plasma concentrations of prolactin. In contrast, pretreatment with various doses of metergoline (5-HT1/5-HT2 antagonist), propranolol (beta adrenoceptor antagonist that also has binding affinity for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B and 5-HT1C sites), mesulergine and mianserin (5-HT1C/5-HT2 antagonists) attenuated m-CPP-induced increases in plasma prolactin. On the other hand, m-CPP-induced increases in corticosterone concentrations were attenuated only by pretreatment with a low dose of mianserin and a high dose of spiperone. When administered without m-CPP, metergoline, mesulergine, ritanserin, ICS 205-930 and high doses of mianserin, spiperone and propranolol increased plasma corticosterone secretion. On the other hand, none of the antagonists used in the present study, except spiperone, had any significant effect on plasma prolactin secretion. These findings suggest that m-CPP-induced prolactin secretion is mediated by stimulation of 5-HT1C receptors while corticosterone secretion may be mediated either by an antagonistic effect at 5-HT3 receptor subtype or by nonserotonergic mechanisms. Alternatively, enhancement of corticosterone secretion by the 5-HT antagonists when administered alone may be responsible for their failure to block m-CPP-induced corticosterone secretion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

To investigate a possible functional interaction between 5-HT1B and 5-HT1A or 5-HT2 receptors we studied the effects of 5-HT1A selective agonists 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and gepirone, of a 5-HT1A/5-HT2 agonist 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeODMT) and of a putative 5-HT2 agonist (+/-)1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-amino-propane (+/- DOI) on the 5-HT1B receptor-mediated hypothermia induced by m-trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (TFMPP) (25 mg/kg) or m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP) (20 mg/kg) in mice. 8-OH-DPAT (1.25-5 mg/kg), gepirone (1.25-5 mg/kg), 5-MeODMT (2-8 mg/kg) and (+/-)DOI (0.5-2 mg/kg) reduced dose-dependently the TFMPP- or m-CPP-induced hypothermia. At the same time 8-OH-DPAT (2.5 and 5 mg/kg, but not 1.25 mg/kg) and gepirone (1.25-5 mg/kg) themselves decreased the body temperature in mice, while 5-MeODMT (2-8 mg/kg) and (+/-)DOI (0.5-2 mg/kg) did not affect it. The present results suggest that a functional interaction exists between 5-HT1B and 5-HT1A or 5-HT2 receptors.

Serotonergic drugs with 5-HT2 receptor agonist properties have been suggested to increase plasma vasopressin concentration, blood pressure (BP) and plasma renin activity (PRA). To study whether these actions are mediated by the same or different receptors, we used three potent 5-HT agonists with different structures and receptor binding profiles. All drugs were administered i.v. to conscious, unrestrained rats. The selective agonist, 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane (DOI), which has high affinity for 5-HT2 receptors, caused marked increases in BP and PRA but no change in plasma vasopressin concentrations. The 5-HT1C agonist, m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP), which also binds to other 5-HT receptors, caused moderate increases in BP and PRA and significantly elevated plasma vasopressin concentrations. The 5-HT1A agonist, 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), did not increase any of these parameters. BP and PRA elevations paralleled each other after all drugs, while vasopressin responses were clearly different. Vasopressin responses to m-CPP were entirely antagonised by the 5-HT1/5-HT2 antagonist metergoline, partially by the 5-HT2/5-HT1C antagonists ritanserin and LY 53857, but not by the 5-HT2 antagonist ketanserin. Ritanserin, LY53857 and ketanserin all very effectively blocked BP responses to m-CPP. These findings suggest that BP and PRA but not vasopressin responses are mediated by 5-HT2 receptors. Vasopressin secretion is mediated by 5-HT1 receptors, most likely by 5-HT1C receptors.

To study possible interactions between dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) neurochemical systems in the D-1 supersensitized induction of oral activity in neonatal 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) lesioned rats, the effects of a series of 5-HT agonists and antagonists were determined. At 3 days after birth rats were treated with desipramine HCl (20 mg/kg i.p., base form, 1 hr) and 6-OHDA HBr (100 micrograms, salt form, in each lateral ventricle). Rats were observed individually as adults, once a minute every 10 min over a 1-hr period after challenge with a DA or 5-HT receptor agonist. The respective 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B agonists, (+/-)-8-hydroxydipropylaminotetralin (0.50 mg/kg s.c.) and CGS 12066B maleate (7-trifluoromethyl-4(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-pyrrolo[1, 2-alquinoxaline], 1:2 maleate salt; 3.0 mg/kg i.p.), did not increase oral activity. The mixed 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptor agonist, m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP), produced a slight increase in oral activity in control rats and a marked increase in oral activity in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats. In the 6-OHDA group the peak effect of 76.5 +/- 4.1 oral movements occurred with an m-CPP 2-HCl dose of 4.0 mg/kg. Pindolol (1.0 mg/kg i.p.), ketanserin tartrate (5 mg/kg i.p.) and MDL-72222 (3-tropanyl-3,5-dichlorobenzoate; 10 mg/kg s.c.), antagonists with high affinity for 5-HT1A,1B, 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 receptors, respectively, did not attenuate m-CPP actions. However, mianserin HCl (1.0 mg/kg s.c.), an antagonist with high affinity for 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors, attenuated the oral response to m-CPP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The level of cyclic AMP in NCB-20 cells was increased by serotonin (5-HT), 5-methoxytryptamine and 2-methyl-5-HT with EC50 of 0.5 +/- 0.1, 1.0 +/- 0.1, 10 +/- 0.1 microM, respectively. The 5-HT-mediated increase of cyclic AMP content was completely blocked by metergoline but unaffected by 5-HT3 antagonists, ICS 205-930, MDL 72222, quipazine and 5-HT2 antagonist, ketanserin. Putative 5-HT1A agonists (8-OH-DPAT, ipsapirone, and buspirone) and 5-HT1B agonists (TFMPP and m-CPP) affected neither basal nor forskolin-dependent cyclic AMP accumulation. Receptor binding studies suggest that NCB-20 cells are devoid of 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptor sites. Application of 5-HT onto NCB-20 cells resulted in membrane depolarization by an evoked inward current which displayed rapid desensitization. 5-HT-mediated current had a reversal potential around 0 mV and was potently and reversibly inhibited by ICS 205-930. Our data suggest that in NCB-20 cells the 5-HT3 receptor is involved in the generation of inward currents, while the 5-HT receptor coupled to adenylate cyclase does not seem to correspond to any of the known receptor subtypes.

This study examined the abilities of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) agonists with varying selectivity for different subtypes of 5-HT receptors to produce antidepressant-like behavioral effects in the forced swim test in rats. The 5-HT1A agonists 8-OH-DPAT (0.125-1.0 mg/kg, SC) and tandospirone (SM-3997) (5-20 mg/kg, SC) both produced dose-related decreases in immobility time following subchronic treatment in rats. These effects were similar to those of the tricyclic antidepressants imipramine (5-15 mg/kg) and desipramine (5-15 mg/kg). In addition, the 5-HT1A agonists, buspirone (20 mg/kg), gepirone (20 mg/kg) and ipsapirone (10 and 20 mg/kg) demonstrated antidepressant-like effects. Other groups of rats treated subchronically with each of the 5-HT1A agonists or antidepressants showed no increase in locomotor activity, so that general changes in activity could not account for the reduction of immobility time in the forced swim test. 5-HT agonists selective for other receptor subtypes, such as the 5-HT1B/1C agonist m-CPP (5 mg/kg) and the 5-HT2/1C agonist DOB (1 mg/kg), were not effective in this behavioral test. The benzodiazepine diazepam (5 mg/kg) also failed to reduce immobility time, suggesting that anxiolytic properties of 5-HT1A agonists did not mediate this behavioral effect. A common metabolite of some of the 5-HT1A agonists, 1-PP, was ineffective in reducing immobility time. The stimulant d-amphetamine (2 mg/kg) significantly reduced immobility time but also significantly increased locomotor activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The effect of the putative 5-HT1A agonists 8-OH-DPAT and ipsapirone and 5-HT1B agonists TFMPP and m-CPP on respiratory activity in rats has been examined. In chloral hydrate-anesthetized rats, respiratory counts were decreased in a dose-dependent manner by both TFMPP and m-CPP, with an ED50 of 0.30 mg/kg (1.1 mumol/kg) and 3.0 mg/kg (11.0 mumol/kg) respectively. In contrast, both 5-HT1A agonists tested, 8-OH-DPAT and ipsapirone, produced an increase in respiratory rate at all doses tested. Moreover, the TFMPP-induced decrease in respiratory rate was antagonized by 8-OH-DPAT. The 5-HT2 antagonist ketanserin had no effect on the TFMPP-induced decrease in respiratory activity. However, methylsergide (5-HT1/5-HT2 antagonist) and (-)-cyanopindolol (5-HT1B antagonist) antagonized the TFMPP-induced respiratory rate decrease. The results of these experiments, coupled with the predominant presence of 5-HT1B receptors in the lower brainstem, pons, and medulla, as established by autoradiography studies, suggest a possible involvement of the 5-HT1B receptor subtype in the control of respiratory mechanisms, especially those involved in respiratory rhythmicity.
