5‐HT1‐like receptors mediate 5‐hydroxytryptamine‐induced contraction of guinea‐pig isolated iliac artery

Abstract: 1 The effects of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and of the 5-HT1-like receptor agonists, 5-carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT) and sumatriptan (GR43175) were investigated in isolated ring preparations of guinea-pig common iliac artery. 2 The three agonists induced very weak, if any, contractions of unstimulated preparations, whereas they elicited concentration-dependent contractions in preparations given a moderate tone by a threshold concentration of prostaglandin F2& (PGF2.). 3 Under the latter conditions, Emax values … Show more

“…Membranes prepared from COS-7 cells transiently expressing the gene product bound [3H]LSD in a saturable and dose-dependent manner with an estimated Kd of 0.9 nM and a receptor, density of 0.8-1.2 pmol/mg of protein (Fig. 3a) (45)(46)(47). Furthermore, the finding that L17 is present in the Lymnaea heart suggests that this 5-HT receptor may be (41).…”

“…The localization of this receptor to defined neurons within the CNS of Lymnaea and further characterization may help to determine, for example, if it is involved in any behaviors such as learning and memory as described for Aplysia. The finding that 5HTlym is present in the Lymnaea heart and that vascular 5HT1-like 5-HT receptors (45)(46)(47) have been postulated to exist in mammals that appear not to be of a previously defined 5HT1 receptor type suggests that 5HTlym may belong to an additional subclass of 5HT1-like receptors common to mammals.…”

“…For example, in guinea pig isolated iliac arteries 5-HT 1 -like silent receptor appears only in the presence of vascular tone. 20) The same phenomenon has been described in bovine isolated pulmonary arteries 21) and in rabbit isolated mesenteric arteries, 22) where preconstriction of the tissue with different contractile agents revealed potent vasoconstrictory effects of 5-HT. In rat aorta, a mutual amplification in contractile responses by simultaneous activation of a 1 and 5-HT 2 receptors has been described.…”

“…The descending aorta was carefully removed, cleaned, and cut into 3 or 4 rings 4 mm in length which were then mounted in organ baths containing 20 When required, the endothelium was removed mechanically by rotating the vessel along a cotton bud. All the tissues were allowed to stabilize for 60 min under 2 g of resting tension, with washing every 15 min.…”
