Interaction between brain endocannabinoid (EC) and serotonin (5-HT) systems was investigated by examining 5-HT-dependent behavioral and biochemical responses in CB(1) receptor knockout mice. CB(1) knockout animals exhibited a significant reduction in the induction of head twitches and paw tremor by the 5-HT(2A/C) receptor selective agonist (+/-) DOI, as well as a reduced hypothermic response fo...
Dyskinesia seen in the off-state, referred as graft-induced dyskinesia (GID), has emerged as a serious complication induced by dopamine (DA) cell transplantation in parkinsonian patients. Although the mechanism underlying the appearance of GID is unknown, in a recent clinical study the partial 5-HT(1A) agonist buspirone was found to markedly reduce GID in three grafted patients, who showed sign...
Large elevations in blood serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine; 5-HT) can produce valvular heart disease in humans and laboratory animals. In accordance, one prevailing hypothesis (i.e., the "5-HT hypothesis") suggests that 5-HT transporter substrates like fenfluramine increase the risk for valvular heart disease by elevating plasma 5-HT, secondary to the release of 5-HT from platelets. The main purp...
Abnormal serotonin-glutamate interaction in prefrontal cortex (PFC) is implicated in the pathophysiology of many mental disorders, including schizophrenia and depression. However, the mechanisms by which this interaction occurs remain unclear. Our previous study has shown that activation of 5-HT(1A) receptors inhibits N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor (NMDAR) currents in PFC pyramidal neuron...
Raphe and extra-raphe 5-HT-1A receptors contribute to feedback inhibition of serotonin (5-HT) neurons; however, the endogenous function of 5-HT-1A receptor-dependent feedback inhibition remains poorly understood. Here, the possibility that 5-HT-1A-mediated feedback inhibition of the raphe nuclei is topographically organized was examined. This was done by testing the effect of systemic blockade ...
The post-transcriptional process of mRNA editing changes up to three amino acids in the second intracellular domain (i2) of the serotonin(2C) (5-HT(2C)) receptor and alters some signaling characteristics of the receptor. Here, we report that the substitution of valine for isoleucine (I156V; 5-HT(2C-VNI)), which occurs naturally as a result of mRNA editing, alters both ligand-dependent and -inde...
Crk-associated substrate (CAS), a 130-kDa adaptor protein, was discovered as a tyrosine kinase substrate of Src that was important to cellular motility and actin filament formation. As the tyrosine kinase Src is utilized by the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)(2A) receptor in arterial contraction, we tested the hypothesis that CAS was integral to 5-HT(2A) receptor-mediated vasoconstriction. Rat thora...
Long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) have both been studied as mechanisms of ocular dominance plasticity in the rat visual cortex. In a previous study, we suggested that a developmental increase in serotonin [5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)] might be involved in the decline of LTP, since 5-HT inhibited its induction. In the present study, to further understand the role of 5-HT...
Recent studies have identified the potential for an important role for serotonin (5-HT) receptors in the developmental plasticity of the kitten visual cortex. 5-HT(2C) receptors are transiently expressed in a patchy fashion in the visual cortex of kittens between 30-80 days of age complementary to patches demarcated by cytochrome oxidase staining. 5-HT, operating via 5-HT(2C) receptors, increas...
Objective(s): The main objective of this study was to investigate the variations of β-endorphin (β-EP), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) mice as well as the regulatory mechanism of prednison. Materials and Methods: Sixty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group, model group and prednison intervention grou...
