Serotonin 5-HT1A receptors are promising targets in the management of schizophrenia but little information exists about affinity and efficacy of novel antipsychotics at these sites. We addressed this issue by comparing binding affinity at 5-HT1A receptors with dopamine rD2 receptors, which are important targets for antipsychotic drug action. Agonist efficacy at 5-HT1A receptors was determined for G-protein activation and adenylyl cyclase activity. Whereas haloperidol, thioridazine, risperidone and olanzapine did not interact with 5-HT1A receptors, other antipsychotic agents exhibited agonist properties at these sites. E(max) values (% effect induced by 10 microM of 5-HT) for G-protein activation at rat brain 5-HT1A receptors: sarizotan (66.5), bifeprunox (35.9), SSR181507 (25.8), nemonapride (25.7), ziprasidone (20.6), SLV313 (19), aripiprazole (15), tiospirone (8.9). These data were highly correlated with results obtained at recombinant human 5-HT1A receptors in determinations of G-protein activation and inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase. In binding-affinity determinations, the antipsychotics exhibited diverse properties at r5-HT1A receptors: sarizotan (pK(i)=8.65), SLV313 (8.64), SSR181507 (8.53), nemonapride (8.35), ziprasidone (8.30), tiospirone (8.22), aripiprazole (7.42), bifeprunox (7.19) and clozapine (6.31). The affinity ratios of the ligands at 5-HT1A vs. D2 receptors also varied widely: ziprasidone, SSR181507 and SLV313 had similar affinities whereas aripiprazole, nemonapride and bifeprunox were more potent at D2 than 5-HT1A receptors. Taken together, these data indicate that aripiprazole has low efficacy and modest affinity at 5-HT1A receptors, whereas bifeprunox has low affinity but high efficacy. In contrast, SSR181507 has intermediate efficacy but high affinity, and is likely to have more prominent 5-HT1A receptor agonist properties. Thus, the contribution of 5-HT1A receptor activation to the pharmacological profile of action of the antipsychotics will depend on the relative 5-HT1A/D2 affinities and on 5-HT1A agonist efficacy of the drugs.  相似文献

Interaction at dopamine D4 receptors may improve cognitive function, which is highly impaired in individuals with schizophrenia, but comparative studies of recent antipsychotics in cellular models of D4 receptor activation are lacking. Here, we report the in-vitro profile of over 30 ligands at recombinant hD4.4 receptors. In [35S]GTPgammaS binding experiments using membranes of CHO-hD4.4 cells, apomorphine, preclamol and the selective D4 agonists, ABT724, CP226269, Ro-10-5824 and PD168077, behaved as partial agonists (Emax 20-60% vs. dopamine), whereas L745870 and RBI257, displayed antagonist properties. The 'conventional' antipsychotic, haloperidol and the 'atypicals', clozapine and risperidone, exhibited antagonist properties, while 'third generation' compounds bifeprunox, SLV313 and F15063, acted as partial agonists (10-30%). Aripiprazole and SSR181507 slightly stimulated [35S]GTPgammaS binding at micromolar concentrations. In Xenopus laevis oocytes co-expressing hD4.4 receptors with G-protein-coupled inwardly rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels, apomorphine, preclamol, ABT724, CP226269, and PD168077 stimulated GIRK currents (Emax 70-80%). The 5-HT1A receptor ligands, WAY100635 and flibanserin, also exhibited partial agonist activity (30% and 15%, respectively). Haloperidol, clozapine, olanzapine and nemonapride did not stimulate GIRK currents, whereas aripiprazole, bifeprunox, SLV313 and F15063, but not SSR181507, exhibited partial agonism (Emax 20-35%). In-vitro responses depended on experimental conditions: increasing NaCl concentration (30 mm to 100 mm) reduced agonist efficacy in [35S]GTPgammaS binding, whereas decreasing the amount of hD4.4 cRNA injected into oocytes (from 2.0 to 0.5 ng/oocyte) reduced agonist efficacy of several compounds. These data indicate that, unlike conventional or 'atypical' antipsychotics, several 'third generation' agents display D4 receptor partial agonism that may be sufficient to influence physiological D4 receptor activity in vivo.  相似文献

Compounds possessing 5-HT(1A) agonist properties attenuate catalepsy induced by D(2) receptor blockade. Here we examined the role of 5-HT(1A) receptor agonism in the reduced cataleptogenic potential of several novel antipsychotic agents in the crossed leg position (CLP) and the bar catalepsy tests in rats. When administered alone, ziprasidone produced marked catalepsy, whereas aripiprazole, bifeprunox, SLV313, SSR181507 and sarizotan did not. However, when 5-HT(1A) receptors were blocked with the selective antagonist, WAY100635 (0.63 mg/kg, SC), robust cataleptogenic properties of SLV313, bifeprunox and sarizotan were unmasked and the catalepsy induced by ziprasidone was accentuated. In contrast, only modest catalepsy was induced by aripiprazole and SSR181507, even following a higher dose of WAY100635 (2.5 mg/kg). This suggests that these compounds possess other anti-cataleptic properties, such as partial agonism at dopamine D(2) receptors. The capacity to reverse neuroleptic-induced catalepsy was investigated in interaction studies with haloperidol (2.5 mg/kg, SC). Whereas ziprasidone and aripiprazole did not markedly reduce the effects of haloperidol, SLV313 and sarizotan attenuated CLP catalepsy. In contrast, SSR181507 and bifeprunox potently inhibited both CLP and bar catalepsy. Taken together, these data show that 5-HT(1A) receptor activation reduces the cataleptogenic potential of novel antipsychotic agents but indicate marked diversity in the contribution of 5-HT(1A) and/or other mechanisms to the profiles of the drugs.  相似文献

The dopamine D1/D2 agonist apomorphine (0.63 mg/kg) disrupted prepulse inhibition (PPI) of acoustic startle in rats, a model of sensorimotor gating deficits observed in schizophrenia. All current antipsychotics, which antagonize D2 receptors, prevent this apomorphine-induced deficit. A novel class of antipsychotics possesses, in addition to D2 antagonist property, various levels of 5-HT1A agonist activity. Considering that the latter itself produces PPI deficits, it appeared necessary to assess the potential of this novel class of antipsychotics to reverse apomorphine-PPI deficits. Potent D2 antagonists, like haloperidol (0.63-2.5 mg/kg), risperidone (0.63-10 mg/kg), and olanzapine (0.63-40 mg/kg) prevented apomorphine PPI disruption. The atypical antipsychotics, clozapine (40 mg/kg), nemonapride (0.01-2.5 mg/kg), ziprasidone (10 mg/kg), and aripiprazole (0.01 and 10 mg/kg), which all exhibit 5-HT1A agonist properties, reversed PPI deficits at some doses only, whereas the anti-dyskinetic agent sarizotan (0.16-10 mg/kg), an efficacious 5-HT1A agonist, did not. New generation antipsychotics with marked 5-HT1A agonist properties, such as SLV313 and SSR181507 (0.0025-10 mg/kg and 0.16-10 mg/kg, respectively) did not reverse these deficits whereas bifeprunox (0.04-2.5 mg/kg) did. To reveal the contribution of 5-HT1A agonist properties in the lack of effects of SLV313 and SSR181507, we pretreated rats with the 5-HT1A antagonist WAY100635 (0.63 mg/kg). Under these conditions, significant reversal of PPI deficit was observed, indicating that D2 antagonist properties of SLV313 and SSR181507 are now sufficient to overcome the disruptive effects of apomorphine. To summarize, antipsychotics possessing agonist efficacy at 5-HT1A receptors exhibit diverse profiles against apomorphine-induced PPI deficits, depending on the balance between D2 and 5-HT1A activities, suggesting that they may display distinct activity on some aspects of gating deficits in schizophrenic patients.  相似文献

A new generation of proven or potential antipsychotics, including aripiprazole, bifeprunox, SSR181507 and SLV313, exhibit agonist actions at serotonin 5-HT1A receptors, but little comparative data are available on their pharmacological profiles. Here, we compared in mice the in vivo antipsychotic-like vs cataleptogenic activities of these compounds with those of drugs that exhibit little interaction at 5-HT1A receptors, such as haloperidol, olanzapine and risperidone. All the drugs dose-dependently reduced apomorphine-induced climbing or sniffing and, with the exception of ziprasidone, produced complete suppression of these responses. In the bar catalepsy test, when administered alone, haloperidol, olanzapine and risperidone produced marked catalepsy, whereas, at doses up to 40 mg/kg, aripiprazole, SLV313, SSR181507, and sarizotan produced little or no catalepsy. The latter compounds, therefore, displayed a large separation between doses with 'antipsychotic-like' and those with cataleptogenic actions. When 5-HT1A receptors were blocked by pretreatment with WAY100635 (2.5 mg/kg, s.c.), cataleptogenic properties of SSR181507 and sarizotan were unmasked, and the catalepsy induced by bifeprunox was enhanced. In the case of aripiprazole and SLV313, although WAY100635 produced upward shifts in their dose-response, the magnitude of catalepsy appeared to reach an asymptotic plateau, suggesting that other mechanisms may be involved in their low cataleptogenic liability. The present data confirm that 5-HT1A receptor activation reduces or even completely prevents the cataleptogenic potential of novel antipsychotic agents. Further, they indicate that the balance of affinity and/or efficacy between D2 and 5-HT1A receptors profoundly influences their pharmacological activities, and will likely impact their therapeutic profiles.  相似文献

The effects of new generation antipsychotic drugs (APDs) targeting dopamine D(2) and serotonin 5-HT(1A) receptors were compared with typical and atypical APDs on phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK 1/2) and measures of G protein activation in CHO cell lines stably expressing the human dopamine D(3) receptor. The preferential dopamine D(3) agonists (+)-7-OH-DPAT and PD128907, like dopamine and quinelorane, efficaciously stimulated ERK 1/2 phosphorylation at dopamine D(3) receptors. In contrast, in [(35)S]GTPgammaS binding experiments, (+)-7-OH-DPAT exhibited partial agonist properties, while PD128907 and quinelorane maintained full agonist properties. The preferential dopamine D(3) ligand BP 897 and the antidyskinetic sarizotan partially activated ERK 1/2 phosphorylation while exerting no agonist activity on GTPgammaS binding, suggesting signal amplification at the MAP kinase level. Antipsychotics differed in their ability to inhibit both agonist-stimulated GTPgammaS binding and ERK 1/2 phosphorylation, but all typical and atypical compounds tested acted as dopamine D(3) receptor antagonists with the exception of n-desmethylclozapine, the active metabolite of clozapine, which partially activated dopamine D(3) receptor-mediated ERK 1/2 phosphorylation. Among the new generation dopamine D(2)/serotonin 5-HT(1A) antipsychotics, only F 15063 and SLV313 acted as pure dopamine D(3) receptor antagonists, bifeprunox was highly efficacious whereas SSR181507 and aripiprazole showed marked partial agonist properties for ERK 1/2 phosphorylation. In contrast, in the GTPgammaS binding study, aripiprazole was devoid of agonist properties and bifeprunox, and to an even lesser extent SSR181507, only weakly stimulated GTPgammaS binding. In summary, these findings underline the differences of dopamine D(3) properties of new generation antipsychotics which may need to be considered in understanding their diverse therapeutic actions.  相似文献

The D(2) dopaminergic receptor represents a major target of antipsychotic drugs. Using the coupling of the human D(2long) (hD(2L)) receptor to G protein-coupled inward rectifier potassium (GIRK) channels in Xenopus laevis oocytes, we examined the activity of antipsychotic agents of different classes - typical, atypical, and a "new generation" of compounds, exhibiting a preferential D(2) and 5-HT(1A) receptor profile. When the hD(2L) receptor was coexpressed with GIRK channels, a series of reference compounds exhibited full agonist (dopamine, and quinpirole), partial agonist (apomorphine, (-)3-PPP, and (+)-UH232) or inverse agonist (raclopride, and L741626) properties. Sarizotan exhibited only very weak partial agonist action. At higher levels of receptor cRNA injected per oocyte, both partial agonist activity and inverse agonist properties were generally more pronounced. The inverse agonist action of L741626 was reversed by interaction with sarizotan, thus confirming the constitutive activity of wild-type hD(2L) receptors in the oocyte expression system. When antipsychotic agents were tested for their actions at the hD(2L) receptor, typical (haloperidol) as well as atypical (nemonapride, ziprasidone, and clozapine) compounds acted as inverse agonists. In contrast, among D(2)/5-HT(1A) antipsychotics, only SLV313 and F15063 behaved as inverse agonists, whilst the other members of this group (bifeprunox, SSR181507 and the recently marketed antipsychotic, aripiprazole) exhibited partial agonist properties. Thus, the X. laevis oocyte expression system highlights markedly different activity of antipsychotics at the hD(2L) receptor. These differential properties may translate to distinct therapeutic potential of these compounds.  相似文献

INTRODUCTION: Prepulse inhibition (PPI) of the startle reflex has been extensively studied because it is disrupted in several psychiatric diseases, most notably schizophrenia. In rats, and to a lesser extent, in humans, PPI can be diminished by dopamine (DA) D(2)/D(3) and serotonin 5-HT(1A) receptor agonists. A novel class of potential antipsychotics (SSR181507, bifeprunox, and SLV313) possess partial agonist/antagonist properties at D(2) receptors and various levels of 5-HT(1A) activation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: It thus appeared warranted to assess, in Sprague-Dawley rats, the effects of these antipsychotics on basal PPI. RESULTS: SSR181507, sarizotan, and bifeprunox decreased PPI, with a near-complete abolition at 2.5-10 mg/kg; SLV313 had a significant effect at 0.16 mg/kg only. Co-treatment with the 5-HT(1A) receptor antagonist WAY100,635 (0.63 mg/kg) showed that the 5-HT(1A) agonist activity of SSR181507 was responsible for its effect. By contrast, antipsychotics with low affinity and/or efficacy at 5-HT(1A) receptors, such as aripiprazole (another DA D(2)/D(3) and 5-HT(1A) ligand), and established typical and atypical antipsychotics (haloperidol, clozapine, risperidone, olanzapine, quetiapine, and ziprasidone) had no effect on basal PPI (0.01-2.5 to 2.5-40 mg/kg). DISCUSSION: The present data demonstrate that some putative antipsychotics with pronounced 5-HT(1A) agonist activity, coupled with partial agonist activity at DA D(2) receptors, markedly diminish PPI of the startle reflex in rats. CONCLUSIONS: These data raise the issue of the influence of such compounds on sensorimotor gating in humans.  相似文献

Dopamine D2 receptor antagonists induce hyperprolactinemia depending on the extent of D2 receptor blockade. We compared the effects of the new antipsychotic agents SSR181507 ((3-exo)-8-benzoyl-N-[[(2 s)7-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-1-yl]methyl]-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-3-methanamine monohydrochloride), bifeprunox (DU127090: 1-(2-Oxo-benzoxazolin-7-yl)-4-(3-biphenyl)methylpiperazinemesylate) and SLV313 (1-(2,3-dihydro-benzo[1,4]dioxin-5-yl)-4-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-pyridin-3-ylmethyl]-piperazine) with those of aripiprazole (7-{4-[4-(2,3-dichlorophenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-butyloxy)-3,4-dihydro-2(1 H)-quinolinone), clozapine and haloperidol, on functional measures of dopamine D2 receptor activity in vitro and in vivo: [35S]-GTPgammaS binding to membranes from Sf9 insect cells expressing human dopamine D2 Long (hD2 L) receptors, and serum prolactin levels in the rat. All compounds antagonized apomorphine-induced G protein activation at dopamine hD2 L receptors. Antagonist potencies of aripiprazole, bifeprunox and SLV313 were similar to haloperidol (pK(b) = 9.12), whereas SSR181507 (8.16) and clozapine (7.35) were less potent. Haloperidol, SLV313 and clozapine were silent antagonists but SSR181507, bifeprunox and aripiprazole stimulated [35S]-GTPgammaS binding by 17.5%, 26.3% and 25.6%, respectively, relative to 100 microM apomorphine (Emax = 100%). pEC50s were: SSR181507, 8.08; bifeprunox, 8.97; aripiprazole, 8.56. These effects were antagonized by raclopride. Following oral administration in vivo, the drugs increased prolactin release to different extents. SLV313 and haloperidol potently (ED50 0.12 and 0.22 mg/kg p.o., respectively) stimulated prolactin release up to 86 and 83 ng/ml. Aripiprazole potently (ED50 0.66 mg/kg p.o.) but partially (32 ng/ml) induced prolactin release. SSR181507 (ED50 4.9 mg/kg p.o.) also partially (23 ng/ml) enhanced prolactin release. Bifeprunox only weakly increased prolactin at high doses (13 ng/ml at 40 mg/kg) and clozapine only affected prolactin at the highest dose tested (41 ng/ml at 40 mg/kg). Prolactin levels of the corresponding vehicle-treated animals were <4.3 ng/ml. These data show that (1) SSR181507, aripiprazole and bifeprunox, but not SLV313, are partial agonists at dopamine hD2 L receptors in vitro; (2) SSR181507, bifeprunox and aripiprazole exhibit reduced prolactin release in vivo compared with drugs that are neutral antagonists at dopamine D2 receptors.  相似文献

Antipsychotics constitute efficacious augmenting agents in the treatment of anxiety disorders, including refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder. We examined the effects of 36 compounds, including typical, atypical and novel antipsychotics with dual dopamine D2/5-hydroxytryptamine 1A (D2/5-HT1A) actions on marble burying behavior in mice, a putative preclinical test for anxiety disorders. One hour after drug administration, male NMRI mice were placed individually in cages containing 20 marbles, and the total number of marbles buried after 30 min was counted. The selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, citalopram (2.5-40 mg/kg), fluoxetine (2.5-10 mg/kg) and the benzodiazepine diazepam (2.5-10 mg/kg), reduced the number of buried marbles. The atypical antipsychotic, clozapine (0.16-10 mg/kg), but not its congener olanzapine, was effective in this test. Haloperidol, a typical antipsychotic, also reduced the number of buried marbles, albeit not in a dose-dependent manner. The atypical risperidone was partially active (0.16-0.63 mg/kg), as was the benzamide derivative, amisulpride, albeit at high (10-40 mg/kg) doses. Among the 'third-generation' antipsychotics possessing combined D2/5-HT1A properties, bifeprunox was active at 0.0025 mg/kg, whereas SLV313 and aripiprazole were active only at the highest doses (2.5 and 10 mg/kg, respectively). SSR181507, F15063 and the antidyskinetic agent, sarizotan, were without any effect. Among a series of receptor subtype-selective ligands, only the 5-HT1A agonist, (+)-8-OH-DPAT (0.63-2.5 mg/kg) and the 5-HT2A/2B/2C antagonist, ritanserin (0.63-2.5 mg/kg) were active. Among novel antipsychotics with dual D2/5-HT1A properties, only bifeprunox was able to potently reduce the number of buried marbles. Inhibition of marble burying behavior may result from the interplay of several receptor systems, including 5-HT2 receptor blockade, dopamine D2 partial agonism and serotonin 5-HT1A agonism.  相似文献

Interaction with dopamine D2-like receptors plays a major role in the therapeutic effects of antipsychotic drugs. We examined in vivo dopamine D2 receptor occupancy of various established and potential antipsychotics in mouse striatum and olfactory tubercles 1 h after administration of the compound, using [3H]nemonapride as a ligand. All the compounds reduced in vivo binding of [3H]nemonapride in the striatum. When administered systemically, conventional antipsychotics, D2 antagonists, nemonapride (ID50: 0.034 mg/kg), eticlopride (0.047), haloperidol (0.11) and raclopride (0.11) potently inhibited [3H]nemonapride binding. The ‘atypical’ antipsychotics, risperidone (0.18), ziprasidone (0.38), aripiprazole (1.6), olanzapine (0.99), and clozapine (11.1) were less potent for occupying D2-like receptors. New compounds, displaying marked agonism at 5-HT1A receptors in addition to D2 receptor affinity, exhibited varying D2 receptor occupancy: bifeprunox (0.25), SLV313 (0.78), SSR181507 (1.6) and sarizotan (6.7). ID50 values for inhibition of [3H]nemonapride binding in the striatum correlated with those in the olfactory tubercles (r=0.95, P<0.0001). These values also correlated with previously-reported in vitro affinity of the compounds at rat D2 receptors (r=0.85, P=0.0001) and with inhibition of apomorphine-induced climbing in mice (r=0.79 P=0.0005). In contrast, there was no significant correlation between ID50 values herein and previously-reported ED50 values for catalepsy in mice. These data indicate that: (1) there is no difference in D2 receptor occupancy in limbic versus striatal regions between most classical and atypical or potential antipsychotics; and (2) high occupancy of D2 receptors can be dissociated from catalepsy, if the drugs also activate 5-HT1A receptors. Taken together, these data support the strategy of simultaneously targeting D2 receptor blockade and 5-HT1A receptor activation for new antipsychotics.  相似文献

Combining antagonist/partial agonist activity at dopamine D2 and agonist activity at serotonin 5-HT1A receptors is one of the approaches that has recently been chosen to develop new generation antipsychotics, including bifeprunox, SSR181507 and SLV313. There have been, however, few comparative data on their pharmacological profiles. Here, we have directly compared a wide array of these novel dopamine D2/5-HT1A and conventional antipsychotics in rat models predictive of antipsychotic activity. Potency of antipsychotics to antagonize conditioned avoidance, methylphenidate-induced behaviour and D-amphetamine-induced hyperlocomotion correlated with their affinity at dopamine D2 receptors. Potency against ketamine-induced hyperlocomotion was independent of affinity at dopamine D2 or 5-HT1A receptors. Propensity to induce catalepsy, predictive of occurrence of extrapyramidal side effects, was inversely related to affinity at 5-HT1A receptors. As a result, preferential D2/5-HT1A antipsychotics displayed a large separation between doses producing 'antipsychotic-like' vs. cataleptogenic actions. These data support the contention that 5-HT1A receptor activation greatly reduces or prevents the cataleptogenic potential of novel antipsychotics. They also emphasize that interactions at 5-HT1A and D2 receptors, and the nature of effects (antagonism or partial agonism) at the latter has a profound influence on pharmacological activities, and is likely to affect therapeutic profiles.  相似文献

5-HT7 receptors are present in thalamus and limbic structures, and a possible role of these receptors in the pathology of schizophrenia has been evoked. In this study, we examined binding affinity and agonist/antagonist/inverse agonist properties at these receptors of a large series of antipsychotics, i.e., typical, atypical, and third generation compounds preferentially targeting D2 and 5-HT1A sites. Adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity was measured in HEK293 cells stably expressing the human (h) 5-HT7a receptor isoform. 5-HT and 5-CT increased cyclic adenosine monophosphate level by about 20-fold whereas (+)-8-OH-DPAT, the antidyskinetic agent sarizotan, and the novel antipsychotic compound bifeprunox exhibited partial agonist properties at h5-HT7a receptors stimulating AC. Other compounds antagonized 5-HT-induced AC activity with pK B values which correlated with their pK i as determined by competition binding vs [3H]5-CT. The selective 5-HT7 receptor ligand, SB269970, was the most potent antagonist. For antipsychotic compounds, the following rank order of antagonism potency (pK B) was ziprasidone > tiospirone > SSR181507 ≥ clozapine ≥ olanzapine > SLV-314 > SLV-313 ≥ aripiprazole ≥ chlorpromazine > nemonapride > haloperidol. Interestingly, pretreatment of HEK293-h5-HT7a cells with forskolin enhanced basal AC activity and revealed inverse agonist properties for both typical and atypical antipsychotics as well as for aripiprazole. In contrast, other novel antipsychotics exhibited diverse 5-HT7a properties; SLV-313 and SLV-314 behaved as quasi-neutral antagonists, SSR181507 acted as an inverse agonist, and bifeprunox as a partial agonist, as mentioned above. In conclusion, the differential properties of third generation antipsychotics at 5-HT7 receptors may influence their antipsychotic profile.  相似文献

Schizophrenia is a chronic, debilitating neuropsychological disease characterised by positive, negative, and cognitive deficits. In recent years, new pharmacological treatment strategies have been developed to treat the sequalae of schizophrenia based upon more selective receptor activity profiles in the hope that treatment efficacy can be increased without inducing the side-effect profiles seen with current available therapies. One such strategy involves the development of combined (partial) 5-HT1A agonists and D2 receptor (partial) antagonists such as bifeprunox, SLV313, F15063 and SSR-181507 in an attempt to increase therapeutic efficacy of all symptom domains whilst alleviating adverse side effects. Other novel drugs including SLV310 and SLV314 combine selective serotonin reuptake inhibition (SSRI) functionality with D2 receptor antagonism in an attempt to not only improve schizophrenic symptoms, but to also relieve other affective disorders intricately linked with the disorder. The main scope of this review will evaluate the major preclinical and clinical pharmacological findings concerning the aforementioned strategies and pharmacological agents, and compare their therapeutic potential with currently available antipsychotics; however, recent developments at other emerging serotonergic targets such as 5-HT2C, 5-HT6 and 5-HT7 receptors will also be considered.  相似文献

Considerable interest has arisen in identifying antipsychotic agents with improved efficacy against negative symptoms, such as social withdrawal. In rats, a social interaction deficit can be induced by the NMDA antagonist phencyclidine (PCP). Here, we examined the effects of antipsychotics, reported to exert dual 5-HT(1A)/D(2) actions, on PCP-induced social interaction deficits. Drugs were administered daily for 3 days in combination with either vehicle or PCP (2.5mg/kg, SC) and social interaction was measured on the last day of drug treatment. Pairs of unfamiliar rats receiving the same treatment were placed in a large open field for 10 min and the number of social behaviors were scored. The results indicate that: (1) PCP significantly reduced social interaction by over 50% compared with vehicle-treated controls; (2) haloperidol (0.0025-0.16 mg/kg, SC) and clozapine (0.04-10mg/kg, IP) did not reverse PCP-induced social interaction deficits; (3) the substituted benzamide remoxipride reversed PCP-induced deficits at 0.63 and 2.5mg/kg (4) the 5-HT(1A) agonist 8-OH-DPAT was inactive (at 0.01-0.63 mg/kg, SC); (5) among compounds reported to exert dual 5-HT(1A)/D(2) actions, SSR181507 (at 0.16 mg/kg, SC) and aripiprazole (at 0.04 and 0.16 mg/kg, IP), but not ziprasidone (0.04-2.5mg/kg, IP), SLV313 (0.0025-0.16 mg/kg, SC) or bifeprunox (0.01-0.63 mg/kg, IP), significantly reversed PCP-induced social interaction deficits; and (6) the 5-HT(1A) receptor antagonist WAY100635 blocked the effects of SSR181507 and aripiprazole. These findings indicate that the balance of activity at 5-HT(1A) and D(2) receptors profoundly influences the activity of antipsychotics in this model of social withdrawal, and their potential benefit on at least some of the negative symptoms of schizophrenia.  相似文献

SSR181507 ((3-exo)-8-benzoyl-N-[[(2S)7-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-1-yl]methyl]-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-3-methanamine monohydrochloride) is a novel tropanemethanamine benzodioxane derivative that possesses high and selective affinities for D2-like and 5-HT(1A) receptors (K(I)=0.8, 0.2, and 0.2 nM for human D(2), D(3), and 5-HT(1A), respectively). In vivo, SSR181507 inhibited [(3)H]raclopride binding to D(2) receptors in the rat (ID(50)=0.9 and 1 mg/kg, i.p. in limbic system and striatum, respectively). It displayed D(2) antagonist and 5-HT(1A) agonist properties in the same concentration range in vitro (IC(50)=5.3 nM and EC(50)=2.3 nM, respectively, in the GTPgammaS model) and in the same dose range in vivo (ED(50)=1.6 and 0.7 mg/kg, i.p. on striatal DA and 5-HT synthesis, respectively, and 0.03-0.3 mg/kg, i.v. on dorsal raphe nucleus firing rate). It selectively enhanced Fos immunoreactivity in mesocorticolimbic areas as compared to the striatum. This regional selectivity was confirmed in electrophysiological studies where SSR181507, given acutely (0.1-3 mg/kg, i.p.) or chronically (3 mg/kg, i.p., o.d., 22 days), increased or decreased, respectively, the number of spontaneous active DA cells in the ventral tegmental area, but not in the substantia nigra. Moreover, SSR181507 increased both basal and phasic DA efflux (as assessed by microdialysis and electrochemistry) in the medial prefrontal cortex and nucleus accumbens, but not in the striatum. This study shows that the combination of D(2) receptor antagonism and 5-HT(1A) agonism, in the same dose range, confers on SSR181507 a unique neurochemical and electrophysiological profile and suggests the potential of this compound for the treatment of the main dimensions of schizophrenia.  相似文献

Combined dopamine D(2) receptor antagonism and serotonin (5-HT)(1A) receptor agonism may improve efficacy and alleviate some side effects associated with classical antipsychotics. The present study describes the in vitro and in vivo characterization of 1-(2,3-dihydro-benzo[1,4]dioxin-5-yl)-4-[5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-pyridin-3-ylmethyl]-piperazine monohydrochloride (SLV313), a D(2/3) antagonist and 5-HT(1A) agonist. SLV313 possessed high affinity at human recombinant D(2), D(3), D(4), 5-HT(2B), and 5-HT(1A) receptors, moderate affinity at 5-HT(7) and weak affinity at 5-HT(2A) receptors, with little-no affinity at 5-HT(4), 5-HT(6), alpha(1), and alpha(2) (rat), H(1) (guinea pig), M(1), M(4), 5-HT(3) receptors, and the 5-HT transporter. SLV313 had full agonist activity at cloned h5-HT(1A) receptors (pEC(50)=9.0) and full antagonist activity at hD(2) (pA(2)=9.3) and hD(3) (pA(2)=8.9) receptors. In vivo, SLV313 antagonized apomorphine-induced climbing and induced 5-HT(1A) syndrome behaviors and hypothermia, the latter behaviors being antagonized by the 5-HT(1A) antagonist WAY100635. In a drug discrimination procedure SLV313 induced full generalization to the training drug flesinoxan and was also antagonized by WAY100635. In the nucleus accumbens SLV313 reduced extracellular 5-HT and increased dopamine levels in the same dose range. Acetylcholine and dopamine were elevated in the hippocampus and mPFCx, the latter antagonized by WAY100635, suggesting possible 5-HT(1A)-dependent efficacy for the treatment of cognitive and attentional processes. SLV313 did not possess cataleptogenic potential (up to 60 mg/kg p.o.). The number of spontaneously active dopamine cells in the ventral tegmental area was reduced by SLV313 and clozapine, while no such changes were seen in the substantia nigra zona compacta following chronic administration. These results suggest that SLV313 is a full 5-HT(1A) receptor agonist and full D(2/3) receptor antagonist possessing characteristics of an atypical antipsychotic, representing a potential novel treatment for schizophrenia.  相似文献

Small rodents (mice, rats) are the species of choice for evaluating the pharmacology of centrally acting compounds, such as antipsychotics, whereas toxicology data are routinely obtained from other species (rabbits, dogs, monkeys). Whilst there is a substantial number of "therapeutically relevant" pharmacological models for "antipsychotic-like" activity in small rodents, based on hyperdopaminergic or hypoglutamatergic/NMDA approaches, there is a remarkable paucity of such models in other species. Here, we compared the efficacy and potency of reference and new generation dopamine D2/5-HT(1A) putative antipsychotics, administered orally, against apomorphine-induced emesis in dogs, a model of central D2 receptor activation that can be implemented with relative ease. Risperidone potently and fully (10 microg/kg) prevented emesis/retching induced by 0.1 mg/kg s.c. apomorphine. SLV313 and F15063 (D2 receptor antagonists/5-HT(1A) receptor agonists) also abolished emesis/retching, albeit less potently than risperidone (minimal effective dose, MEDs: 10 and 40 microg/kg, respectively). The D2 receptor partial agonists/5-HT(1A) receptor agonists aripiprazole and bifeprunox, (up to 80 microg/kg) only partially attenuated emesis, as did the peripheral D2 receptor antagonist domperidone. Under the present experimental conditions, haloperidol was only efficacious at the highest dose tested (320 microg/kg). To summarize, dogs are very sensitive to the dopaminergic blocking effects of antipsychotics in this model of D2 receptor activation. This model can thus be advantageously used to investigate the pharmacological activity of novel D2 receptor antagonists/partial agonists in dogs.  相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Combining 5-HT(1A) receptor activation with dopamine D(2)/D(3) receptor blockade should improve negative symptoms and cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. We describe the in vitro profile of F15063 (N-[(2,2-dimethyl-2,3-dihydro-benzofuran-7-yloxy)ethyl]-3-(cyclopent-1-enyl)-benzylamine). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: F15063 was characterised in tests of binding affinity and in cellular models of signal transduction at monoamine receptors. KEY RESULTS: Affinities (receptor and pK(i) values) of F15063 were: rD(2) 9.38; hD(2L) 9.44; hD(2S) 9.25; hD(3) 8.95; hD(4) 8.81; h5-HT(1A) 8.37. F15063 had little affinity (40-fold lower than D(2)) at other targets. F15063 antagonised dopamine-activated G-protein activation at hD(2), rD(2) and hD(3) receptors with potency (pK (b) values 9.19, 8.29 and 8.74 in [(35)S]GTP gamma S binding experiments) similar to haloperidol. F15063 did not exhibit any hD(2) receptor agonism, even in tests of ERK1/2 phosphorylation and G-protein activation in cells with high receptor expression. In contrast, like (+/-)8-OH-DPAT, F15063 efficaciously activated h5-HT(1A) (E(max) 70%, pEC(50) 7.57) and r5-HT(1A) receptors (52%, 7.95) in tests of [(35)S]GTP gamma S binding, cAMP accumulation (90%, 7.12) and ERK1/2 phosphorylation (93%, 7.13). F15063 acted as a partial agonist for [(35)S]GTP gamma S binding at hD(4) (29%, 8.15) and h5-HT(1D) receptors (35%, 7.68). In [(35)S]GTP gamma S autoradiography, F15063 activated G-proteins in hippocampus, cortex and septum (regions enriched in 5-HT(1A) receptors), but antagonised quinelorane-induced activation of D(2)/D(3) receptors in striatum. CONCLUSIONS and IMPLICATIONS: F15063 antagonised dopamine D(2)/D(3) receptors, a property underlying its antipsychotic-like activity, whereas activation of 5-HT(1A) and D(4) receptors mediated its actions in models of negative symptoms and cognitive deficits of schizophrenia (see companion papers).  相似文献

1. 5-Hydroxytryptamine 1A (5-HT1A) receptors have attracted increasing attention as a promising target for antipsychotic therapy. Although many atypical antipsychotic drugs, including the prototype clozapine, have been reported to be partial agonists at 5-HT1A receptors, these results are often fragmental and derived mainly from experiments that used cultured cells. 2. In the present study, [35S]guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) ([35S]GTPgammaS) binding assay in rat hippocampal membranes was applied to a series of antipsychotic drugs, especially atypical antipsychotics. 3. Most, but not all, of atypical antipsychotic drugs and the classical antipsychotic drug nemonapride behaved as partial agonists at 5-HT1A receptors with varied potencies and relative efficacies. The most potent compound was perospirone with a mean EC50 of 27 nmol/L, followed by aripiprazole (45 nmol/L) > ziprasidone (480 nmol/L) > nemonapride (790 nmol/L) > clozapine (3900 nmol/L) > quetiapine (26,000 nmol/L). The maximal percentage increases over the basal binding (%Emax) for these antipsychotic drugs were 30-50%, with the exception of perospirone (approximately 15%), whereas 5-HT stimulated the binding to a mean %Emax of 105%. 4. Increasing concentrations of the selective and neutral 5-HT1A antagonist WAY100635 shifted the concentration-response curve of nemonapride-stimulated [35S]GTPgammaS binding to the right and in parallel. 5. The relative efficacy or intrinsic activity of a compound was affected differently by the differing concentrations of guanosine diphosphate (GDP) in the assay buffer, which should be taken into consideration when determining the relative efficacies of these antipsychotics as 5-HT1A receptor agonists. 6. These results provide important information concerning the relevance of 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist properties in the treatment for schizophrenic patients with most, if not all, of atypical antipsychotic drugs.  相似文献
