p11 (S100A10), a member of a large family of S100 proteins, interacts with serotonin receptor 1B (5-HTR1B), modulates 5-HT1B receptor signal transduction, and is required for antidepressant responses to activation of this receptor. In the current study, we investigated the specificity of the interaction between 5-HTR1B and p11 by screening brain-expressed S100 proteins against serotonin and noradrenergic receptors. The data indicate that p11 is unique among its family members for its interactions with defined serotonin receptors. We identify a novel p11-interacting receptor (5-HTR4) and characterize the interaction between p11 and 5-HTR4, demonstrating that (1) p11 and 5-HTR4 mRNA and protein are coexpressed in brain regions that are relevant for major depression, (2) p11 increases 5-HTR4 surface expression and facilitates 5-HTR4 signaling, and (3) p11 is required for the behavioral antidepressant responses to 5-HTR4 stimulation in vivo. The essential role played by p11 in modulating signaling through 5-HT4 as well as 5-HT1B receptors supports the concept that this protein may be a key determinant of vulnerability to depression.
p11(S100A10)是S100蛋白大家族的一员,它与5-羟色胺受体1B(5-HTR1B)相互作用,调节5-HT1B受体信号转导,并且是该受体激活后产生抗抑郁反应所必需的。在本研究中,我们通过针对5-羟色胺和去甲肾上腺素能受体筛选脑内表达的S100蛋白,研究了5-HTR1B与p11之间相互作用的特异性。数据表明,p11在其家族成员中因其与特定5-羟色胺受体的相互作用而独具特色。我们鉴定出一种新的与p11相互作用的受体(5-HTR4),并对p11与5-HTR4之间的相互作用进行了表征,证明:(1)p11和5-HTR4的mRNA及蛋白在与重度抑郁症相关的脑区共表达;(2)p11增加5-HTR4的表面表达并促进5-HTR4信号传导;(3)p11是体内对5-HTR4刺激产生行为抗抑郁反应所必需的。p11在调节通过5-HT4以及5-HT1B受体的信号传导中所起的重要作用支持了这样一种观点,即该蛋白可能是抑郁症易感性的关键决定因素。
