Inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation was measured in two stable HeLa cell lines HA6 and HA7 expressing different levels of recombinant human 5-HT1A receptors. These cells were studied previously to characterize another second messenger system activated by 5-HT1A receptors, i.e. calcium mobilization. The pharmacological characterization of the inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation was made using agonists (5-HT, 8-OH-DPAT, buspirone, MDL 73005) and putative antagonists (SDZ 216-525, NAN-190, WAY-100135, pindolol, propranolol, WAY 100635). It is shown that 5-HT, 8-OH-DPAT, buspirone, MDL 73005 behaved as full (or nearly full) and potent agonists, whereas SDZ 216-525, NAN-190 and WAY-100135 displayed a limited (and similar) degree of intrinsic activity at human 5-HT1A receptors; on the other hand pindolol, propranolol and WAY 100635 behaved as "silent" antagonists. The effects were quantitatively and qualitatively very similar in both cells lines for all drugs tested, suggesting that the coupling between 5-HT1A receptors and inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation in HeLa cells is very tight. There were, however, significant variations in both the level of agonism and the potency of a number of compounds when calcium mobilization and the inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation were compared. Especially in HA7 cells which express lower receptor levels, a number of drugs failed to display agonism (e.g. buspirone or MDL 73005), whereas in HA6 cells they acted as partial agonists. Together, the data show that functional responses mediated by the same receptor can vary rather dramatically depending on receptor density and/or on the effector system involved. Interestingly, 5-HT1A receptor-mediated inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity measured in calf hippocampal membranes shows very similar degrees of potency and intrinsic activity for a number of compounds that have been tested on the inhibition of cyclic AMP accumulation in HeLa cells, suggesting that the very tight coupling observed in the recombinant system may apply to native 5-HT1A receptors.

1. The binding characteristics of tritium labeled 8-hydroxy-dipropyl-aminotetralin, or [3H]8-OH-DPAT, to the serotonin1A (5-HT1A) receptor in the stably transfected HeLa cell clone HA6 and in human cortical tissue were examined and compared. 2. A series of kinetic studies of [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding to the transfected HA6 cell line demonstrated two components in both the association and the dissociation reactions. 3. In saturation experiments, at least two affinity states were unequivocally detected in the HA6 cell line and the human cortical tissue. Using isotopic dilutions, the binding isotherms were best fitted to a two-site model, and similar affinity values were obtained in both systems (KH approximately 1.1 nM and KL approximately 12-223 nM). 4. Most of the drugs used in competitions inhibited [3H]8-OH-DPAT binding, following a two-site model, and maintained their rank order of binding potency in both systems; that is, 5-HT > or = 8-OH-DPAT > buspirone > pindolol. Inconsistencies, however, were found for the antagonists NAN-190 and pindolol; only one inhibition constant was determined for HA6 cells, but two affinities were detected with cortical tissue. 5. The results indicate that, although data from binding studies using the cell expression system reflect, to a certain extent, those obtained with the cortical tissue, some discrepancies remained. 6. Finally, and in contrast with what is observed with the 5-HT1A receptor expressed in the HA6 cell line, it is possible that different receptors, or subtypes of one receptor, or even uptake sites normally expressed in cortical tissue, could interact with [3H]8-OH-DPAT or the competing drugs or both, thus leading to the observation of additional binding sites.

A series of homochiral 7-substituted 1-aminoindans was prepared by means of asymmetric reductive amination from racemic 7-substituted 1-indanones via E-imines and E-imine/enamine mixtures, respectively, and subjected to 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor subtype binding studies. The ee's of the title compounds were determined by HPLC of the corresponding Mosher's amides and range from 96 to 99.9%. The absolute configuration was elucidated by means of correlation CD spectroscopy. On the basis of the pK1 values obtained from various test systems, structure activity relationships have been established with respect to the absolute configuration, degree of N-alkylation, and the type of 7-substituents. The tested 1-aminoindans show the highest affinity to the 5-HT1A receptor, with decreasing magnitude for the 5-HT2A, 5-HT1D, and 5-HT2C receptors. The highest affinities for the 5-HT1A receptor were observed for the R-(-)-7-propoxy-1-(di-n-propylamino)indan hydrochloride (R-(-)-30). S,S'-(+)-7-benzylamido-1-(1-phenylethylamino)indan hydrochloride [S,S'-(+)-19] and R-(-)-7-methoxy-1-(di-n-propylamino)indan hydrogenembonate (R-(-)-29) with pK1 = 7.07 +/- 0.19, 6.40 +/- 0.09, and 6.22 +/- 0.10, respectively, in comparison to 8-OH-DPAT with pK1 = 8.70 +/- 0.30. Nearly all other compounds showed low affinity at all 5-HT receptors tested. The three above mentioned ligands were tested on HeLa cells (cell line HA6) expressing recombinant human 5-HT1A receptors for their effects on forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation in intact cells. Both the di-n-propylamino substituent bearing R-(-)-30 and R-(-)-29 acted as efficacious agonists with a pEC50 value of 5.89 +/- 0.20 for R-(-)-30 compared to 5-HT with a pEC50 value of 8.06 +/- 0.14, S,S'-(+)-19 with the 1-phenylethylamino substituent was devoid of intrinsic activity up to the highest tested concentration (10 microM).
