The selective 5-HT (2) receptor antagonist ritanserin produced insurmountable antagonism of 5-HT concentration-response curves in both arteries, whereas the 5-HT (1B/1D) receptor antagonist N-[4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl) phenyl]-2'-methyl-4'(5-methyl- 1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl [1,1,-biphenyl]-4-carboxamide hydrochloride (GR127935) produced much greater antagonism in supernumerary arteries.
Neither the selective 5-HT (1D) receptor antagonist (1-(3-chlorophenyl)-4-[3, 3-diphenyl (2-(S,R) hydroxypropanyl) piperazine] hydrochloride (BRL15572) nor the 5-HT (1B) receptor antagonist (2,3,6, 7-tetrahydro-1'-methyl-5-[2'methyl-4'5-(methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-y l) biphenyl-4-carbonyl] furo [2,3-f] indole-3-spiro-4'-piperidine hydrochloride (SB224289) antagonised concentration-response curves induced by 5-HT or 5-HT (1)-receptor-selective agonists.

Brain serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) systems contribute to regulate eating behavior and energy homeostasis. 5-HT2C receptors and 5-HT1B receptors have been shown to mediate anorexic effects of 5-HT drugs such as d-fenfluramine, which stimulates 5-HT release and inhibits 5-HT reuptake, and m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP), a 5-HT2C receptor agonist.

Results are consistent with involvement of the dopaminergic and 5-HT systems, in particular activation of 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptor subtypes, in mediation of the conditioned or secondary reinforcing properties of ethanol.
Results showed that the 5-HT releaser d-fenfluramine, the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine, the 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-hydroxy-2 [di-n-propylamino] tetralin, the partial 5-HT1A receptor agonist buspirone, and the 5-HT1B/5-HT2C receptor agonist 1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl) piperazine, but not the 5-HT2A/5-HT2C receptor agonist 1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenylaminopropane)-2, selectively reduced responding on a lever leading to presentation of an ethanol paired conditioned stimulus.

In male 8-month-old taiep rats we have studied the effect of systemic administration of serotonergic autoreceptor agonists and antagonists on gripping-induced IEs. 8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetraline hydrobromide (8-OH-DPAT), a 5-HT (1A) agonist, and 3-trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine hydrochloride (TFMPP), a 5-HT (1B) agonist, produce a significant decrease in the frequency and mean duration of IEs.
Systemic administration of spiperone and 1-(2-methoxyphenyl)-4 [4-(2-phthalimido) butyl] piperazine hydrobromide (NAN-190), 5-HT (1) antagonists, increase IEs and their mean duration.

An SAR study around the mixed 5-HT1ABD receptor antagonist SB-272183 found that introduction of cis-2,6-dimethyl substitution onto the piperazine ring was a key structural change, which imparted a combination of both excellent selectivity over the 5-HT1A and 5-HT1D receptors and low intrinsic activity.

Both vasodilatation and vasoconstriction were inhibited by the 5-HT (1,2 ) receptor antagonist methiothepin, whereas the 5-HT (2 ) receptor antagonist ritanserin blocked only the vasoconstrictor responses. 1-[4-(1-Adamantanecarboxamido) butyl]-4-(2-methoxyphenyl) piperazine (a 5-HT (1A) receptor antagonist) and ICI 118,551 (a beta (2)-receptor antagonist) failed to modify the vasodilator responses of m-CPP.
Both BRL 15572 (a 5-HT (1D) receptor antagonist) and GR 55562 (a 5-HT (1B) receptor antagonist) only partially inhibited this action.

Although it has been well established that compounds that stimulate 5-HT (2C) and/or 5-HT (1B) receptors induce hypophagia by promoting satiety process, the relative role of these receptor subtypes in dietary choices remains to be fully determined. m-CPP is considered a useful probe of 5-HT (2C) receptor function in vivo and its administration reduces food intake and appetite in humans and rats.

1 The role of the 5-Hydroxytryptamine (1B) (5-HT (1B)) receptor subtype in masculine sexual behaviour in mice was analysed in both 5-HT (1B) receptor knockout (KO (1B)) and wild-type (WT) animals. 2 Comparison of male copulatory behaviour of WT and KO (1B) strains revealed that KO (1B) mice become interested earlier in sexual behaviour, but require more stimulation to achieve ejaculation than its corresponding WT strain. 3 The pharmacological manipulation of male sexual activity in the WT strain showed that the serotonin precursor 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), the 5-HT (1B) agonist (1-(m-trifluoromethylphenyl) piperazine (TFMPP) and the 5-Hydroxytryptamine (1A) (5-HT (1A)) receptor agonist 8-hydroxy-2-di-n-propylamino-tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) all inhibited male copulatory behaviour in mice. 4 In KO (1B) mice, TFMPP lacked an effect, 5-HTP exerted a mild inhibitory effect while 8-OH-DPAT provoked only a tendency towards a reduction in the percentage of animals that achieved ejaculation.

The aim of the present work was the pharmacological characterization of the 5-HT receptor involved in this 5-HT action. 2 Poly-epscs, evoked by electrical stimulation of the stratum radiatum and recorded in whole-cell voltage-clamp from CA1 pyramidal neurones, were studied in mini-slices of the CA1 region under pharmacological block of GABA (A), GABA (B), and 5-HT (1A) receptors. 3 The 5-HT (1B) receptor selective agonist 1,4-dihydro-3-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridinyl)-5H-pyrrolo [3,2-b] pyridin-5- one dihydrochloride (CP 93129) inhibited poly-epscs (EC (50)=55 nM), an effect mimicked by the 5-HT (1B) ligands 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT; EC (50)=14 nM) and methylergometrine (EC (50)=78 nM), but not by 1-(3-chlorophenyl) piperazine dihydrochloride (mCPP; 10 micro M) or 7-trifluoromethyl-4 (4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-pyrrolo [1,2-a] quinoxaline dimaleate (CGS 12066B; 10 micro M). 4 The effects of CP 93129 and 5-CT were blocked by the selective 5-HT (1B) receptor antagonist 3-[3-(dimethylamino) propyl]-4-hydroxy-N-[4-(4-pyridinyl) phenyl] benzamide dihydrochloride (GR 55562; K (B) approximately 100 nM) and by cyanopindolol (K (B)=6 nM); methiothepin (10 micro M) and dihydroergotamine (1 micro M).
