F15599, a novel 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)(1A) receptor agonist with 1000-fold selectivity for 5-HT compared with other monoamine receptors, shows antidepressant and procognitive activity at very low doses in animal models. We examined the in vivo activity of F15599 at somatodendritic autoreceptors and postsynaptic 5-HT(1A) heteroreceptors.
In vivo single unit and local field potential recordings and microdialysis in the rat.
F15599 increased the discharge rate of pyramidal neurones in medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) from 0.2 microg x kg(-1) i.v and reduced that of dorsal raphe 5-hydroxytryptaminergic neurones at doses >10-fold higher (minimal effective dose 8.2 microg x kg(-1) i.v.). Both effects were reversed by the 5-HT(1A) antagonist (+/-)WAY100635. F15599 did not alter low frequency oscillations (approximately 1 Hz) in mPFC. In microdialysis studies, F15599 increased dopamine output in mPFC (an effect dependent on the activation of postsynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptors) with an ED(50) of 30 microg x kg(-1) i.p., whereas it reduced hippocampal 5-HT release (an effect dependent exclusively on 5-HT(1A) autoreceptor activation) with an ED(50) of 240 microg x kg(-1) i.p. Likewise, application of F15599 by reverse dialysis in mPFC increased dopamine output in a concentration-dependent manner. All neurochemical responses to F15599 were prevented by administration of (+/-)WAY100635.
These results indicate that systemic administration of F15599 preferentially activates postsynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptors in PFC rather than somatodendritic 5-HT(1A) autoreceptors. This regional selectivity distinguishes F15599 from previously developed 5-HT(1A) receptor agonists, which preferentially activate somatodendritic 5-HT(1A) autoreceptors, suggesting that F15599 may be particularly useful in the treatment of depression and of cognitive deficits in schizophrenia.
F15599 是一种新型的 5-羟色胺(5-HT)(1A)受体激动剂,与其他单胺受体相比,对 5-HT 的选择性高达 1000 倍,在动物模型中以非常低的剂量表现出抗抑郁和认知促进作用。我们研究了 F15599 在 somatodendritic 自身受体和突触后 5-HT(1A)异源受体中的体内活性。
在大鼠的体内单细胞和局部场电位记录和微透析。
F15599 从 0.2μg x kg(-1) 静脉内增加了内侧前额叶皮质(mPFC)中锥体神经元的放电率,而在高 10 倍以上的剂量下减少了背侧中缝核 5-羟色胺能神经元的放电率(最小有效剂量为 8.2μg x kg(-1) 静脉内)。两种作用都被 5-HT(1A)拮抗剂(+/-)WAY100635 逆转。F15599 没有改变 mPFC 中的低频振荡(约 1 Hz)。在微透析研究中,F15599 增加了 mPFC 中的多巴胺输出(一种依赖于突触后 5-HT(1A)受体激活的作用),其 ED(50)为 30μg x kg(-1) 腹腔内注射,而减少了海马体 5-HT 的释放(一种仅依赖于 5-HT(1A)自身受体激活的作用),其 ED(50)为 240μg x kg(-1) 腹腔内注射。同样,通过逆行透析在 mPFC 中应用 F15599 以浓度依赖的方式增加多巴胺的输出。所有对 F15599 的神经化学反应都被(+/-)WAY100635 给药所预防。
这些结果表明,全身给予 F15599 优先激活 PFC 中的突触后 5-HT(1A)受体,而不是 somatodendritic 5-HT(1A)自身受体。这种区域选择性将 F15599 与以前开发的 5-HT(1A)受体激动剂区分开来,后者优先激活 somatodendritic 5-HT(1A)自身受体,表明 F15599 在治疗抑郁症和精神分裂症的认知缺陷方面可能特别有用。
