Sugimoto Y, Yoshikawa T, Noma T, Yamada J: The 5-HT2C/2B receptor agonist m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP) inhibits 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG)-induced hyperphagia in rats. Biol Pharm Bull. 2001 Dec;24(12):1431-3. Effects of the 5-HT2C2/2B receptor agonist m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP) on hyperphagia elicited by 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) were investigated in rats. mCPP apparently reduced 2-DG-induced hyperphagia. Suppressive effects of mCPP on hyperphagia induced by 2-DG were inhibited by the 5-HT2A/2B/2C receptor antagonist, ritanserin, although the 5-HT2, receptor antagonist ketanserin was without effect. Thus, inhibitory effects of mCPP on 2-DG-induced hyperphagia are mediated by the 5-HT2C/2B receptor. Our results demonstrate that mCPP can inhibit the bulimia model, 2-DG-induced hyperphagia. |
