The involvement of the 5-HT1A receptor in the 5-HT syndrome (head weaving and hindlimb abduction) induced in DBA mice by tryptamine was investigated. Methysergide, (-)propranolol and spiperone suppressed both the head weaving and hindlimb abduction induced by tryptamine. However, ketanserin and ICS 205-930 did not affect them. Haloperidol induced small decreases in the head weaving, but had no effect on the hindlimb abduction. These results indicate that the 5-HT syndrome induced by tryptamine in mice is mediated by the 5-HT1A receptor. Therefore, 5-HT syndrome may also be associated with the 5-HT1A receptor in mice, as it is in rats.

1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazine (mCPP) and 1-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]piperazine (TFMPP) (0.1-1.0 mg/kg) reduce total interaction time in a rat social interaction test under low light familiar conditions and its following components; grooming, following, crawling over, fighting, sniffing. Locomotion was only reduced by the highest dose of mCPP. mCPP also reduced activity in the light but not total locomotion in a light/dark transition test. These results suggest that mCPP (and TFMPP) are anxiogenic but not sedative in these tests. The effect of mCPP on social interaction was blocked by three antagonists which share a high affinity for 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors: mianserin, cyproheptadine and metergoline but not by the 5-HT2 antagonists ketanserin or ritanserin or the 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B antagonists cyanopindolol and (-)-propranolol. It was prevented by a low (0.05 mg/kg) but not by a high (1.0 mg/kg) dose of ICS 205,930 a specific 5-HT3 antagonist reported to be anxiolytic at low doses. It was also prevented by chronic pretreatment with the anxiolytic drug chlordiazepoxide. These results argue for an anxiogenic action of mCPP mediated by 5-HT1C receptors. Since the chronic chlordiazepoxide pretreatment did not prevent the hypolocomotion or hypophagia induced by mCPP at high dosage (5 mg/kg) these latter effects are unlikely to be secondary to anxiety.

The effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) on the release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were examined in the longitudinal muscle-myenteric plexus (LM-MP) preparation of guinea-pig ileum. 5-HT increased the spontaneous release and inhibited the electrically-evoked release of [3H]-GABA. The 5-HT-evoked release was Ca2+-dependent and tetrodotoxin-sensitive, and was antagonized by (3 alpha-tropanyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid ester (ICS 205-930), but not by methysergide and ketanserin. The inhibitory effect of 5-HT was antagonized by methysergide, but not by ketanserin and ICS 205-930. 8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin mimicked the inhibitory effect of 5-HT. Thus, 5-HT may exert an excitatory effect on the enteric GABAergic neurone via the 5-HT3 receptor and an inhibitory effect via the 5-HT1A receptor.

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) inhibited the formation of cAMP promoted by vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, plus forskolin, in mouse hippocampal and cortical neurons in primary culture. The rank order of potencies of classical 5-HT1 agonists in inhibiting cAMP formation in hippocampal neurons was 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) greater than 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) greater than d-lysergic acid diethylamide greater than 5-HT greater than 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-N,N-DMT) greater than RU 24969 greater than ipsapirone greater than bufotenine greater than buspirone [half-maximal efficacy (EC50) = 7, 18, 30, 52, 90, 102, 100, 110, and 128 nM, respectively]. All the tryptamine derivatives substituted in position 5 of the indol were potent agonists [5-HT, 5-CT, 5-MeO-N,N-DMT, 5-methoxytryptamine, and bufotenine], whereas tryptamine, N-methyltryptamine, and N,N-dimethyltryptamine were poor agonists. The most potent antagonists tested were spiperone, (+/-)-pindolol, (+/-)-cyanopindolol, WB4101, and methiothepin, the affinity of spiperone for this receptor being 22 nM. In contrast, ketanserin, a specific 5-HT2 antagonist, and 5-HT3-selective drugs (ICS 205 930 and MDL 72222) were very weak in antagonizing the 5-HT-inhibited cAMP formation. The pharmacological profiles of 5-HT receptors mediating the inhibition of cAMP formation indicate that these receptors correspond to the 5-HT1A-binding site subtypes. Experiments with the Bordetella pertussis toxin indicate that the 5-HT1A receptor mediating inhibition of cAMP production involves a pertussis toxin-sensitive GTP-binding protein. In the absence of VIP, cAMP formation could be stimulated through a 5-HT receptor, but the specific 5-HT1A agonists, 8-OH-DPAT and RU 24969 did not stimulate cAMP production. These results suggest that in mouse embryonic hippocampal neurons, the 5-HT1A receptors, which are negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase, are distinct from the receptor positively coupled to this enzyme. The pharmacological characterization of the 5-HT receptor negatively coupled to adenylate cyclase in mouse embryonic cortical neurons indicates that it differs from the 5-HT1A receptor found in hippocampal neurons. Its main differences with the 5-HT1A receptor in hippocampal neurons are as follows: 1) 8-OH-DPAT was only a poor partial agonist in cortical neurons, whereas it was the best full agonist in hippocampal neurons; and 2) metergoline and methysergide as well as the anxiolytic drugs, ipsapirone and buspirone, which were potent agonists in hippocampal neurons, were competitive antagonists in cortical neurons.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

A nonclassical 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor mediates the stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity in mouse embryo colliculi neurons in primary culture. The pharmacological profile characterized with agonists and antagonists suggests that this 5-HT receptor does not appear to correspond to a known 5-HT receptor. On this 5-HT receptor, 5-HT (EC50 = 109 +/- 17 nM) and 5-methoxytryptamine (5-MeOT) were equipotent agonists. The other tryptamine derivatives, 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) and 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeOT-N,N-DMT), were full potent agonists, whereas tryptamine, bufotenine, and 2-CH3-5-HT were weak partial agonists. Two selective 5-HT1A agonists: 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)-tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and ipsapirone, could not stimulate adenylate cyclase. RU 24969, a tetrahydropyridoindole derivative that is a potent 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B agonist was also inactive, whereas RU 28253, another member of this series, could stimulate cAMP production. The action of antagonists acting on 5-HT1 or 5-HT2 receptors, such as methiothepin (5-HT1 and 5-HT2), metergoline (5-HT1 and 5-HT2), spiperone (5-HT1A and 5-HT2), (-)-pindolol (5-HT1B), mesulergine (5-HT1C), and ketanserin (5-HT2), were almost inactive in reversing the 5-HT stimulating effect. The selective 5-HT3 antagonist ICS 205 930 was a full competitive antagonist at this receptor. Nevertheless, MDL 72222, which is also a 5-HT3 antagonist, was very weak in antagonizing the 5-HT stimulatory effect. A receptor with similar characteristics has also been found in guinea pig hippocampal membranes. In these membranes, the second receptor of low affinity for 5-HT, termed RL, which is positively coupled to adenylate cyclase, was also antagonized by ICS 205 930. The relatively low affinity of this hippocampal receptor for 5-CT, its stimulation by RU 28253 but not by RU 24969, and its previously reported pharmacological characteristics support the contention that this 5-HT receptor and the 5-HT receptor of mouse embryo colliculi neurons in primary culture (both positively coupled to cAMP formation) present great homologies. Inasmuch as none of the classical specific 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 agonists or antagonists interact with these 5-HT receptors, it is unlikely that they belong to 5-HT1 or 5-HT2 receptor categories.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Intravenous administration of the putative 5-HT1-like receptor agonist RU 24969 (10-1000 micrograms/kg) in anaesthetized rats induced a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure. The bradycardia was reduced, but not suppressed, by tertatolol, bilateral vagotomy or the combination of both treatments. The alpha 1-adrenoceptor blocking agent, AR-C 239, decreased the bradycardia induced by high doses of RU 24969. After treatment with hexamethonium, RU 24969 induced an increase in arterial blood pressure. The hypotensive response induced by RU 24969 was not altered by atropine. The hypotensive and bradycardic effects of RU 24969 were antagonized by methysergide (5-HT1-like receptor antagonist) and in part by spiroxatrine (5-HT1A receptor antagonist). Ketanserin (5-HT2 receptor antagonist) potentiated the effects of low doses of RU 24969. The cardiovascular effects of RU 24969 were antagonized neither by MDL 72222 nor by ICS 205-930 (5-HT3 receptor antagonists). The present results suggest that the cardiovascular effects of RU 24969 seem to be due to the stimulation of 5-HT1-like receptors. The participation of both 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors subtypes has been considered. The results suggest a centrally-mediated inhibition of sympathetic tone and increase in vagal tone in the cardiovascular effects of RU 24969.

The inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity by 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor agonists was measured in guinea pig and rat hippocampal membranes. The results were consistent with the inhibition being mediated by a single, homogeneous population of receptors. In guinea pig hippocampal membranes 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin, d-lysergic acid diethylamide, 5-HT and buspirone were potent in inhibiting forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity, with EC50 values of 18, 24, 53 and 146 nM, respectively. Spiperone (Kb = 26 nM) and methiothepin (Kb = 13 nM) were potent competitive antagonists at this receptor whereas ketanserin, a high affinity 5-HT2 receptor ligand, and ICS 205-930, a high affinity peripheral neuronal (M) receptor ligand, were not. In rat hippocampal membranes, 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin, d-lysergic acid diethylamide, 5-HT and buspirone were potent agonists and exhibited the same rank order of potency as in guinea pig hippocampal membranes. The maximal percentage of inhibition by buspirone was significantly less than the maximal percentage of inhibition by 5-HT in rat membranes, suggesting that it is a partial agonist at this receptor, with an intrinsic activity relative to 5-HT of 0.5. The concentration-response data show that the inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in guinea pig and rat hippocampal membranes is mediated by a receptor with the characteristics of the 5-HT1A binding site. We propose that the inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity is a functional correlate of this binding site. This response is suitable for measuring activities and affinities of drugs acting at 5-HT1A receptors.

In the present study we examined the effect of different drugs on the m-trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (TFMPP)- and m-chlorophenylpiperazine (m-CPP)-induced hypothermia in mice. Both the hypothermias studied are blocked or reversed by pindolol, cyanopindolol and compound 21-009, but not by atenolol. Neither hypothermia is antagonized by 5-HT1A antagonists (ipsapirone, spiperone), a 5-HT1C antagonist (mesulergine), 5-HT2 antagonists (cyproheptadine, mianserin, methysergide), 5-HT3 antagonists (ICS 205930, metoclopramide). The examined hypothermias are not antagonized by other antihypothermic agents (pimozide, idazoxan, atropine). The 8-OH-DPAT-induced hypothermia is not affected by cyanopindolol or compound 21009. The obtained results indicate that the TFMPP- and m-CPP-induced hypothermias in mice are mediated by 5-HT1B. These hypothermias may be a good screening test for evaluation of the 5-HT1B-agonistic and 5-HT1B-antagonistic activity.

The 5-HT1A agonist, 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) at a dose of 1 mg/kg s.c. increased food intake in free feeding rats. 8-OH-DPAT-induced feeding was blocked by metergoline which has comparable affinity for 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT1C and 5-HT2 receptors. This is consistent with the hyperphagia being mediated by an action at 5-HT receptors. Evidence against the involvement of 5-HT2 or 5-HT3 receptors was provided by the lack of effect of methysergide, ketanserin, MDL 72222 and ICS 205930 on the feeding response. Blockade of the hyperphagia by (-)- but not (+)pendolol which stereoselectively interacts with 5-HT1 receptors indicated an involvement of this receptor type. The lack of effect of ketanserin suggests that the 5-HT1C site is not involved as it has high affinity for both 5-HT2 and 5-HT1C receptors. Blockade of the hyperphagia by spiperone suggests mediation by 5-HT1A rather than 5-HT1B receptors. Although spiperone also blocks dopamine and alpha 2-adrenoreceptors, involvement of these sites is unlikely as neither the DA antagonist haloperidol nor the alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist idazoxan blocked 8-OH-DPAT-induced feeding. These results indicate that 8-OH-DPAT-induced feeding is mediated by 5-HT1A receptors.

Intracellular recordings from the dorsal root ganglion cells of adult frogs in the presence of tetraethylammonium display action potentials with a prominent calcium-dependent plateau. These action potentials can be altered by serotonergic agents in one of two ways. The superfusion of 5-HT (0.1-1 microM) usually produces a dose-dependent reduction of the action potential duration, whereas 8-hydroxy dipropylaminotetralin (8-OH-DPAT) (10-50 microM) produces a dose-dependent increase in duration. A series of 5-HT antagonists were tested for their ability to block either the 5-HT or the 8-OH-DPAT effect. The antagonists were chosen for their reported selectivity in distinguishing receptors of the 5-HT1A, 5-HT2 and 5-HT3 subtypes. The antagonists' action on 5-HT narrowing [blockade by methiothepin, spiperone and spiroxitrine, but not by ketanserin or 3-tropyl-indole-3-carboxylate (ICS 205-930)] suggests that this response is mediated by 5-HT1A receptors. The widening effect produced by 8-OH-DPAT (a putative 5-HT1A agonist) was not blocked by any antagonist tested. At lower concentrations (0.1-2.5 microM) 8-OH-DPAT exhibited no agonist actions, but antagonized the 5-HT-induced narrowing. These results suggest the 5-HT receptors mediating 5-HT action potential narrowing in these cells are of the 5-HT1A subtype, but that they differ from the 5-HT1A receptors described in other tissues in which 8-OH-DPAT is an agonist or a partial agonist.
