Abstract: To study potential biochemical correlates of dopamine (DA) and serotonin receptor supersensitivity, rats were lesioned at 3 days after birth with 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA; 67 µg in each lateral ventricle; desipramine pretreatment, 20 mg/kg i.p., 1 h) and then sensitized with the DA D1 agonist, SKF 38393 HCl (3.0 mg/kg i.p. per day) either ontogenetically (daily, for 28 consecutive days from birth) and/or in adulthood (four weekly injections, 6–9 weeks from birth). Controls received vehicle in place of 6-OHDA or SKF 38393. Enhanced locomotor responses were observed after SKF 38393 at 6 weeks, only in rats that received SKF 38393 + 6-OHDA in ontogeny. Locomotor responses were further enhanced in this group after the last of four weekly SKF 38393 injections at the 9th week. These weekly SKF 38393 treatments also produced enhanced responses in 6-OHDA rats that did not receive SKF 38393 in ontogeny. When striata were studied at 11 weeks, the percentages of high and low affinity DA D1 binding sites were not altered. Basal as well as DA-, NaF-, and forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activities also were not changed. Dot blot analysis showed that there was a reduction of mRNA levels for DA D1, but not serotonin1C, receptors in the 6-OHDA groups. However, SKF 38393 at 6–9 weeks eliminated this alteration. Based on these findings it can be proposed that supersensitization may be a consequence of altered neuronal cross talk rather than an imbalance of receptor elements per se.  相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the influence of blockade of the serotoninergic and histaminergic neurotransmitter system on the anorectic effect of IP-injected amylin in rats. In 12- or 24-h food-deprived rats, blockade of central and peripheral serotonin (5-HT) receptors with the 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptor antagonist metergoline (0.5 or 0.05 mg/kg, IP, respectively) did not seem to influence the anorectic effect of IP injected amylin (1 μg/kg). Similarly, inhibition of 5-HT synthesis and release with the 5-HT1A receptor agonist (±)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin hydrobromide (200 μg/kg, IP) did not diminish amylin's (5 μg/kg, IP) anorectic effect in 24-h food-deprived rats whereas that of CCK (3 μg/kg, IP) was blocked under comparable conditions. Pretreatment of rats with the histamine H3 receptor agonists R--methylhistamine (MH; 3 mg/kg, IP) and Imetit (3 mg/kg, IP), which block transmission in the histaminergic system by inhibiting release of endogenous histamine, attenuated amylin's (1 μg/kg) anorectic effect in 24-h food-deprived rats. These results suggest that the histaminergic system is involved in transduction of IP amylin's inhibitory effect on feeding in rats. In contrast, the serotoninergic system does not seem to be involved in mediating amylin's anorectic effect.  相似文献

Four 7-[3-(4-phenyl-1-piperazinyl)propoxy]coumarins were synthesized. The affinities of these compounds for DA (D2A, D3) and 5HT1A receptors were evaluated for their ability to displace [3H]-raclopride and [3H]-8-OH-DPAT respectively from their specific binding sites. The affinities of the target compounds were all in the nanomolar range and followed the order 5-HT1A > D2 > D3.  相似文献

Abstract: The effects of the adenosine A1 agonist N 6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA) on MPTP-induced dopamine (DA) depletion in the striatum of C57BL/6 mice were studied. Twenty hours after a single injection of MPTP (30 mg/kg, s.c.), the toxin caused 62% depletion of striatal DA. CHA (0.2–3 mg/kg, s.c.), when given together with MPTP, prevented the toxin-induced DA depletion in a dose-dependent manner. This protective action was apparently mediated by the A1 receptors, because this effect was selectively antagonized by pretreating the animals with the A1 antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (25 mg/kg, i.p.) but not with the A2 antagonist 1,3-dipropyl-7-methylxanthine (25 mg/kg, i.p.). When CHA (3 mg/kg) was injected 5 h after MPTP administration, at which point striatal DA levels were already reduced significantly, a rapid and complete recovery of the striatal DA levels occurred. These neurochemical data suggest that the A1 agonist CHA is potentially useful as a neuroprotective agent against MPTP-induced toxicity.  相似文献

Several fused bicyclic systems have been investigated to serve as the core structure of potent and selective 5-HT1F receptor agonists. Replacement of the indole nucleus in 2 with indazole and ‘inverted’ indazole provided more potent and selective 5-HT1F receptor ligands. Indoline and 1,2-benzisoxazole systems also provided potent 5-HT1F receptor agonists, and the 5-HT1A receptor selectivity of the indoline- and 1,2-benzisoxazole-based 5-HT1F receptor agonists could be improved with modification of the benzoyl moiety of the benzamides. Through these studies, we found that the inherent geometries of the templates, not the nature of hybridization of the linking atom, were important for the 5-HT1F receptor recognition.  相似文献

Total 5-HT binding sites and 5-HT1A receptor density was measured in brain regions of rats treated with imipramine (5 mg/kg body wt), desipramine (10 mg/kg body wt) and clomipramine (10 mg/kg body wt), for 40 days, using [3H]5-HT and [3H]8-OH-DPAT, respectively. It was observed that chronic exposure to tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) results in significant downregulation of total [3H]5-HT binding sites in cortex (42–76%) and hippocampus (35–67%). The 5-HT1A receptor density was, however, decreased significantly (32–60%) only in cortex with all the three drugs. Interestingly, in hippocampus imipramine treatment increased the 5-HT1A receptor density (14%). The affinity of [3H]8-OH-DPAT was increased only with imipramine treatment both in cortex and hippocampus. The affinity of [3H]5-HT to 5-HT binding sites in cortex was increased with imipramine treatment and decreased with desipramine and clomipramine treatment. 5-HT sensitive adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity was significantly increased in cortex with imipramine (72%) and clomipramine (17%) treatment, whereas in hippocampus only imipramine treatment significantly increased AC activity (50%). In conclusion, chronic treatment with TCAs results in downregulation of cortical 5-HT1A receptors along with concomitant increase in 5-HT stimulated AC activity suggesting the involvement of cortical 5-HT1A receptors in the mechanism of action of TCAs.  相似文献

The synthesis and a preliminary biological characterization of a new class of N-benzyl-aminoalcohols which have serotonin (5-HT2) and dopamine (D2) receptor affinity is described. In vitro competition binding studies were conducted with the new molecules and 3H-spiperone on crude membrane preparation from rat striatum and frontal cortex. One of these compounds, 3-benzylamino-1-(4-fluoro-2-iodophenyl)-propan-1-ol (6f), whose IC50 values are in the micromolar range for both the D2 and 5-HT2 receptors, was prepared in iodine-125 labelled form (6i) by nucleophilic substitution of the bromine atom of 3-benzylamino-1-(2-bromo-4-fluorophenyl)-propan-1-ol (6d). In the in vivo studies, conducted on rats, the radiolabelled molecule 6i shows a good capacity to cross the blood–brain barrier (BBB) with a mean value of first pass cerebral extraction (E) of ca. 50% when the regional cerebral blood flow, measured with microsphere technique, is in the experimental animal's physiologic range (0.8–1 mL/min/g). A preliminary in vitro autoradiographic distribution on coronal rat brain slices of the radioiodinated molecule showed that it was preferentially localized in the striatum and in the cerebral regions rich in dopamine- and serotonin receptors, even if a high non-specific binding was observed.  相似文献

Drugs of abuse, such as phencyclidine (PCP), methamphetamine (METH), and cocaine (COC) are known to affect several behaviors in rats, such as motor activity, stereotypy, and circling. In this study, we evaluated whether these drugs produce circling preferences in the presence or absence of unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced lesions of the caudate nucleus. Adult male CD rats were lesioned with 10 μg 6-OHDA/site. Animals were dosed with PCP (15 mg/kg, ip), its congener, (+) MK-801 (0.15 mg/kg, ip), METH (2 mg/kg, ip), COC (60 mg/kg, ip), or apomorphine (0.2 mg/kg, ip). circling preference was recorded in control and lesioned rats for 2 h before animals were sacrificed to determine monoamine levels by HPLC/EC. In control animals, administration of these drugs produced 60–70% left circling. In, lesioned animals, these drugs produced 78–90% ipsilateral (toward the lesion) circling, except apomorphine, which produced 60–80% contralateral (away from the lesion) circling. Dopamine (DA) and its metabolites 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic acid (HVA) concentrations significantly decreased ipsilaterally in lesioned caudate nucleus (CN) and substantia nigra (SN). However, no significant changes were observed in nucleus accumbens (NA) and olfactory tubercles (OT). These data demonstrate that drugs of abuse like PCP, its congener (+) MK-801, METH, and COC produce a greater preference to turn toward the left than the right, a finding similar to that found in human psychosis. Since 6-OHDA lesions enhanced the circling bias and depleted DA and its metabolites DOPAC and HVA, it also suggests that the dopaminergic system may be involved in the circling behavior.  相似文献

Previous studies have suggested that R-apomorphine (R-APO), a non-selective dopamine (DA) receptor agonist, has neuroprotective effects in the experimental models of Parkinson's disease (PD). In this study, we investigated the effects of chronic, systemic treatment with R-APO in the firing activity of substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) DA neurons in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) partially lesioned rats. In the 6-OHDA-lesioned rats treated with vehicle, injection of 6-OHDA (20.1 microg) into the striatum produced a partial lesion causing 41% loss of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive (TH-ir) neurons in the SNc. In the partially lesioned rats, chronic, systemic treatment of R-APO (10 mg/kg/day, s.c., 11 days) attenuated loss of TH-ir neurons in the SNc. The partial lesion of the nigrostriatal pathway and R-APO treatment did not change the firing rate and firing pattern of DA neurons in the SNc of rats. In contrast, the R-APO treatment increased the number of spontaneously active DA neurons of the SNc in the partially lesioned rats, while the lesion decreased the number of spontaneously active DA neurons. In addition, the chronic R-APO treatment decreased the responsiveness of the DA neurons to intravenously administrated R-APO in the partially lesioned rats. These results indicate that chronic, systemic R-APO treatment has the neuroprotective effect, and reverses the decrease in the number of spontaneously active DA neurons in the SNc whereas the treatment induces a reduction in the sensitivity of DA receptors in the SNc to R-APO stimulation in this model.  相似文献

In the present paper, the effect of simultaneous treatment of rats with low doses of MIF-1 and tricyclic antidepressants on rat behavior in the forced swim test was studied. It was found that MIF-1 stimulated in a dose-dependent manner "active" behavior of animals in this paradigm. The effect of MIF-1 appeared to be independent of changes in rats' locomotion in the open field test. The combined treatment of rats with MIF-1 (0.01 mg/kg IP) and amitriptyline (5 mg/kg IP) or desipramine (1.25 mg/kg) IP) significantly stimulated active behavior in the forced swim test above the level obtained with each of the drugs given separately. The present data suggest the potential clinical efficacy of a combined therapy of depressive patients with MIF-1 and small doses of tricyclic antidepressants.  相似文献

We have further characterized the 5-HT3 receptors in rat and rabbit tissues by evaluating the binding of the 5-HT3 receptor ligand, [3H]GR67330 to homogenates of rabbit ileum, rat ileum and rat brain (entorhinal cortex). In each tissue specific [3H]GR67330 binding represented a single saturable, high affinity site (Kd = 0.14, 0.18, 0.076 nM in rabbit ileum, rat ileum and rat brain respectively). The densities of sites present in rabbit and rat ileum were similar to that present in rat brain (Bmax = 63, 47, 72 fmol/mg protein in rabbit ileum, rat ileum and rat brain respectively).

In each tissue, 5-HT3 receptor agonists and antagonists potently competed for [3H]GR67330 binding. Derived inhibition constants were similar in rat ileum and brain. However marked differences in IC50s were apparent for rabbit ileum compared with rat brain or ileum. These were most apparent with agonists. Thus, mCPBG [1-(meta-chlorophenylbiguanide)], phenylbiguanide, 5-HT and 2-methyl 5-HT were at least 5 times less potent to inhibit [3H]GR67330 binding in rabbit ileum than rat brain. The most pronounced differences were evident with phenylbiguanide and mCPBG which were 70 and 300 times less potent in the rabbit ileum respectively compared with the rat tissues. These differences were unlikely to be due to depletion effects because tissue combination experiments (rabbit ileum and rat brain) yielded biphasic inhibition curves for phenylbiguanide with affinities for each component similar to those in the individual tissues. Antagonist affinities also varied between the rabbit and rat tissues, although less markedly. Amongst the antagonists, the most marked differences were apparent with SDZ 206–830 and quipazine each being 10 times less potent to inhibit binding to rabbit than rat tissue.

Hill coefficients for inhibition of binding varied with tissue. In rat brain, as previously described for [3H]GR67330, Hill coefficients for agonist (and quipazine) inhibition of binding were greater than unity. This was less marked in rat and rabbit ileum tissues.

The present studies provide further evidence for species variation in 5-HT3 receptors.  相似文献

单次6-OHDA (15mg/kg.i.p.)注射后24h,可使雌性成年小鼠颌下腺内儿茶酚胺荧光神经末梢几乎完全消失;同时用 HPLC 测得腺体内去甲肾上腺素(NA)和多巴胺(DA)的含量下降至正常值的3—4%以下。随着受损交感神经末梢再生过程,NA 和 DA 水平有缓慢的恢复。在损毁2周时 NA 和 DA 含量分别达到正常水平的50%和28%,且在4周时完全恢复。在注射6-OHDA 的同时,和在损伤后12h 内给动物注射4次神经节苷脂(每次50mg/kg.i.p.)并在其后的一周內每天注射一次,可使颌下腺内 NA 含量维持在正常水平;在损毁后4h 及损毁前4d 开始施用神经节苷脂,也可不同程度地对抗交感神经末梢损伤,但作用强度不如前者。实验结果提示:(1)神经节苷脂通过减弱6-OHDA 及其代谢产物的损伤效应能够保护交感神经末梢膜,它可能还有促损伤末梢再生性长芽的作用;(2)损伤后神经节苷脂处理得越早,其效果越好。  相似文献

Abstract : Single treatment with the serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) 5-HT1A receptor agonists 8-hydroxy-2-(di- n -propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) and alnespirone (S-20499) reduces the extracellular 5-HT concentration (5-HText) in the rat midbrain and forebrain. Given the therapeutic potential of selective 5-HT1A agonists in the treatment of affective disorders, we have examined the changes in 5-HT1A receptors induced by 2-week minipump administration of alnespirone (0.3 and 3 mg/kg/day) and 8-OH-DPAT (0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg/day). The treatment with alnespirone did not modify baseline 5-HText but significantly attenuated the ability of 0.3 mg/kg s.c. alnespirone to reduce 5-HText in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) and frontal cortex. In contrast, the ability of 8-OH-DPAT (0.025 and 0.1 mg/kg s.c.) to reduce 5-HText in both areas was unchanged by 8-OH-DPAT pretreatment. Autoradiographic analysis revealed a significant reduction of [3H]8-OH-DPAT and [3H]WAY-100635 {3H-labeled N -[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]- N -(2-pyridyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide · 3HCl} binding to somatodendritic 5-HT1A receptors (but not to postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors) of rats pretreated with alnespirone but not with 8-OH-DPAT. In situ hybridization analysis revealed no change of the density of the mRNA encoding the 5-HT1A receptors in the DRN after either treatment. These data indicate that continuous treatment for 2 weeks with alnespirone, but not with 8-OH-DPAT, causes a functional desensitization of somatodendritic 5-HT1A receptors controlling 5-HT release in the DRN and frontal cortex.  相似文献

Previous studies have shown that the intracerebroventricular injection of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides targeted to the mRNAs encoding the different subtypes of dopamine receptors inhibited behaviors mediated by these receptors. The present studies were designed to determine whether such antisense oligodeoxynucleotides could produce similar effects when injected into a discrete brain area. A D2 dopamine receptor antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (D2 antisense) was repeatedly injected into one corpus striatum of either normal mice or mice with unilateral lesions of the striatum induced by 6-hydroxydopamine. In the latter, intrastriatal injection of D2 antisense blocked the contralateral rotational behavior induced by the parenteral administration of the D2 dopamine receptor agonist quinpirole. The inhibitory effect of D2 antisense was dose- and time-related and was reversed upon cessation of D2 antisense treatment. This inhibitory effect was also selective in that D2 antisense treatment inhibited the rotational behavior induced by quinpirole but not that induced by the D1 dopamine receptor agonist SKF 38393 or by the muscarinic cholinergic agonist oxotremorine. Following repeated intrastriatal injections of D2 antisense into normal mice, parenteral administration of quinpirole caused rotational behavior ipsilateral to the side in which the D2 antisense was injected. No such rotational behavior was seen when similarly treated mice were challenged with SKF 38393 or oxotremorine. The quinpirole-induced rotational behavior in mice given intrastriatal injections of D2 antisense disappeared upon cessation of D2 antisense treatment. Repeated intrastriatal administration of D2 antisense also caused a significant reduction in the levels of D2, but not D1, dopamine receptors in striatum, as determined by receptor autoradiography. The levels of D2 dopamine receptors returned to normal upon cessation of D2 antisense treatment. Intrastriatal administration of an oligodeoxynucleotide with randomly placed nucleotides failed to alter the rotational response to quinpirole in either 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned or normal mice and failed to alter the levels of D2 dopamine receptors in striatum. These results show that selective inhibition of behavioral responses mediated by D2 dopamine receptors can be achieved by the direct injection of a D2 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide into a discrete brain area.

Single doses of MIF-1 (0.03-2.0 mg/kg, SC) and chronic pretreatments with MIF-1 (0.03-2.0 mg/kg, SC, BID, 3 1/2 days) or pareptide (0.25 mg/kg, SC, BID, 3 1/2 days) did not affect the acute cataleptic response to haloperidol in the mouse. Chronic pretreatment with haloperidol (8.0 mg/kg, IP, BID, 3 days) decreased the duration of catalepsy in mice given smaller challenge dose of haloperidol (2.0 or 3.0 mg/kg, IP) 15 hours after the last pretreatment injections. Administration of either MIF-1 or pareptide to mice also chronically pretreated with haloperidol antagonized the development of tolerance.  相似文献

实验采用原子吸收分光光度法,快速周期伏安法,高效液相电化学检测等方法,研究以6-羟基多巴(6-OHDA)制备的帕金森病(PD)模型大鼠黑质内铁含量的变化。铁对多巴胺(DA)能神经元的直接毒性作用以及铁离子螯合剂甲磺酸去铁胺的神经保护作用。结果发现:(1)PD大鼠损毁侧黑质内铁含量为非标准PD大鼠的3倍左右;(2)PD大鼠损毁侧纹状体内铁含量无明显改变;(3)单纯注射6-OHDA的大鼠其损毁侧纹状体(CPu)DA的释放量和含量均明显降低;(4)侧脑室预先注射甲磺酸去铁胺,再重复上述实验,损毁侧CPu DA释放量和含量均无明显改变;(5)单侧黑质内注射40ug FeCl3后,大鼠损毁侧CPu内DA释放量和含量显著降低。上述结果提示,6-OHDA可导致CPu DA释放量及含量减少,此过程有铁的参与。由于铁可导致DA神经元死亡,因此铁含量的增加可能是DA含量减少的原因之一,甲磺酸去铁胺具有保护DA神经元的作用。  相似文献

The effects of DA agonists and antagonists with different dopamine (DA) D-1 and D-2 receptor selectivity have been studied in rats with bilateral 6-OHDA lesions. The D-1 agonist SK & F 38393, the D-2 agonist pergolide and the mixed agonist apomorphine all induced marked hyperactivity in lesioned rats in doses which were without stimulant effect in sham-operated animals. The hyperactivity induced by SK & F 38393 was blocked by the DA D-1 antagonist SCH 23390, but unaffected by the D-2 antagonists spiroperidol or clebopride. Pergolide-induced hyperactivity showed the reverse selectivity. The mixed D-1/D-2 antagonists, cis(Z)-flupentixol and cis(Z)-clopenthixol, however blocked the effect of both agonists. Apomorphine-induced hyperactivity was neither blocked by selective D-1 nor D-2 antagonists, but was dose-dependently inhibited by cis(Z)-flupentixol and cis(Z)-clopenthixol. Potent blockade was also obtained by combined treatment with SCH 23390 and spiroperidol, indicating the need of blocking both D-1 and D-2 receptors simultaneously. The results indicate that D-1 and D-2 receptor function can be independently manipulated in denervated rats and they confirm similar results obtained in rats with unilateral 6-OHDA lesions using circling behaviour.  相似文献

Expression of serotonin receptor mRNAs in blood vessels   总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17  
Using RT-PCR we distinguished mRNAs for all known G-protein coupled serotonin receptors expressed in various rat and porcine blood vessels. Nearly all vessels expressed 5HT1 β, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, 5-HT4, and 5-Ht7 receptor mRNA to different extents. New splice variants of the porcine 5-HT4 receptor were observed. Similar PCR assays were performed with endothelial and smooth muscle cells from human pulmonary artery, aorta, and with endothelial cells from human coronary artery and umbilical vein. All endothelial cells expressed 5-HT1 β, 5-HT2b, and 5-HT4 receptor mRNA, whereas in smooth muscle cells 5-HT1 β, 5-HT2A, 5-HT7, and in some experiments 5-HT2B receptor mRNA were found. A model for the regulation of vascular tone by different 5-HT receptors is proposed.  相似文献
