5‐HT6 antagonists as potential treatment for cognitive dysfunction

Abstract: Among the potential therapeutic targets for the development of cognitive enhancers for AD and schizophrenia, the 5-HT 6 receptor is of especial interest based on its localization, pharmacology, and recent behavioral data showing that 5-HT 6 receptor blockade improves cognition in a number of rodent behavioral models. It is localized almost exclusively in the CNS, in areas important for learning and memory, while atypical antipsychotics and tricyclic antidepressants bind with high affinity to this target. 5-HT … Show more

“…On the other hand, 5-HT 6 was excluded from the short list after further analysis because a comprehensive literature search revealed no direct evidence for APD-associated metabolic side effects. In fact, it has been suggested that blockade of the 5-HT 6 receptor leads to a cognitive enhancement in schizophrenia (Liu and Robichaud, 2009). In the interpretation of S2, it must be kept in mind that statistical association is not equivalent to causation.…”

“…Due to the high presence of 5-HT 6 R in brain, the 5-HT 6 R active ligands play an important role in CNS disorders such as schizophrenia, dementia, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative disorders. Various structurally diverse small molecules containing the basic nitrogen (for primary binding) and the two other aromatic sites (for secondary binding) have been known to bind selectively at 5-HT 6 R [5][6][7][8] . In the past decade various molecules like SB-742457, SUVN-502, PRX-07034, SAM-531, SAM-315, LY-483518 and Lu AE58054 were reported as 5-HT 6 R ligands with positive clinical data [9][10][11][12][13] .…”

“…Several 5-HT 6 antagonists have been evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of cognitive deficits and dementia associated with Alzheimer's disease (Upton et al, 2008;Johnson et al, 2008;Geldenhuys and Van der Schyf, 2009). 5-HT 6 antagonists also have been proposed to have utility as an adjunctive treatment of cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia (Roth et al, 2004;Schreiber et al, 2006) and other neurological diseases (Liu and Robichaud, 2009;Rosse and Schaffhauser, 2010;Codony et al, 2011). Recent clinical evidence further illustrates the potential utility of 5-HT 6 antagonists in the symptomatic treatment of Alzheimer's disease (Maher-Edwards et al, 2010, 2011.…”
