Received August 13, 2013 Alterations in serotonin (5-HT) neurochemistry have been implicated in the etiology of major neuro- psychiatric disorders such as anxiety-spectrum disorders, depression, and schizophrenia. The neuromodula- tory effects of 5-HT are mediated through 14 receptor subtypes, and those receptors, including the 5-HT1A receptor, are considered to be potential targets for the treatment of psychiatric disorders. We developed the novel 5-HT1A receptor agonist MKC-242 (called osemozotan) and characterized its neurochemical and pharmacological profiles. 5-HT1A receptor agonists modulate the release of amine neurotransmitters through the activation of presynaptic or postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors in the brain. The agonist has antianxiety and antidepressant effects and improves abnormal behaviors such as aggressive behavior and deficits of prepulse inhibition in isolation-reared mice. We also demonstrated that spinal 5-HT1A receptor activation is involved in isolation rearing-induced hypoalgesia. Concerning the mechanism for induction of isolation-induced ab- normal behaviors, we have recently found that the raphe-prefrontal 5-HT system plays a key role in encoun- ter stimulation-induced hyperactivity in isolation-reared mice. Furthermore, we showed that osemozotan at- tenuates psychostimulant-induced behavioral sensitization and that prefrontal dopamine release is enhanced by functional interaction between the 5-HT1A receptor and other receptors. This review summarizes the neuropharmacology of the 5-HT1A receptor, focusing on our studies using osemozotan, and suggests that the 5-HT1A receptor may be a target molecule for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, pain, and drug depen- dence.

INTRODUCTION Among the 14 known serotonin (5-HT) receptor subtypes, the 5-HT1A receptor has received a great deal of attention mainly because it is implicated in anxiety and depression.1–4) 5-HT1A receptors are located both pre- and postsynaptically. Presynaptic 5-HT1A receptors (as somadendritic 5-HT1A au- toreceptors) are present on serotonergic neurons in the dorsal Fig. 1.

  • 5-HT Receptor Agonist Befiradol Reduces Fentanyl-Induced
    5-HT1A Receptor Agonist Befiradol Reduces Fentanyl-induced Respiratory Depression, Analgesia, and Sedation in Rats Jun Ren, Ph.D., Xiuqing Ding, B.Sc., John J. Greer, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Background: There is an unmet clinical need to develop a pharmacological therapy to counter opioid-induced respiratory depression without interfering with analgesia or behavior. Several studies have demonstrated that 5-HT1A receptor agonists alleviate opioid-induced respiratory depression in rodent models. However, there are conflicting reports regarding their effects on analgesia due in part to varied agonist receptor selectivity and presence of anesthesia. Therefore the authors performed a Downloaded from http://pubs.asahq.org/anesthesiology/article-pdf/122/2/424/267207/20150200_0-00031.pdf by guest on 27 September 2021 study in rats with befiradol (F13640 and NLX-112), a highly selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist without anesthesia. Methods: Respiratory neural discharge was measured using in vitro preparations. Plethysmographic recording, nociception testing, and righting reflex were used to examine respiratory ventilation, analgesia, and sedation, respectively. Results: Befiradol (0.2 mg/kg, n = 6) reduced fentanyl-induced respiratory depression (53.7 ± 5.7% of control minute ven- tilation 4 min after befiradol vs. saline 18.7 ± 2.2% of control, n = 9; P < 0.001), duration of analgesia (90.4 ± 11.6 min vs. saline 130.5 ± 7.8 min; P = 0.011), duration of sedation (39.8 ± 4 min vs. saline 58 ± 4.4 min; P = 0.013); and induced baseline hyperventilation, hyperalgesia, and “behavioral syndrome” in nonsedated rats. Further, the befiradol-induced alleviation of opioid-induced respiratory depression involves sites or mechanisms not functioning in vitro brainstem–spinal cord and medul- lary slice preparations.

  • GPCR/G Protein
    Inhibitors, Agonists, Screening Libraries www.MedChemExpress.com GPCR/G Protein G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) perceive many extracellular signals and transduce them to heterotrimeric G proteins, which further transduce these signals intracellular to appropriate downstream effectors and thereby play an important role in various signaling pathways. G proteins are specialized proteins with the ability to bind the nucleotides guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and guanosine diphosphate (GDP). In unstimulated cells, the state of G alpha is defined by its interaction with GDP, G beta-gamma, and a GPCR. Upon receptor stimulation by a ligand, G alpha dissociates from the receptor and G beta-gamma, and GTP is exchanged for the bound GDP, which leads to G alpha activation. G alpha then goes on to activate other molecules in the cell. These effects include activating the MAPK and PI3K pathways, as well as inhibition of the Na+/H+ exchanger in the plasma membrane, and the lowering of intracellular Ca2+ levels. Most human GPCRs can be grouped into five main families named; Glutamate, Rhodopsin, Adhesion, Frizzled/Taste2, and Secretin, forming the GRAFS classification system. A series of studies showed that aberrant GPCR Signaling including those for GPCR-PCa, PSGR2, CaSR, GPR30, and GPR39 are associated with tumorigenesis or metastasis, thus interfering with these receptors and their downstream targets might provide an opportunity for the development of new strategies for cancer diagnosis, prevention and treatment. At present, modulators of GPCRs form a key area for the pharmaceutical industry, representing approximately 27% of all FDA-approved drugs. References: [1] Moreira IS.
