The antidepressant-like activity of gepirone, a drug with a high and selective affinity for 5-hydroxytryptamine1A (5-HT1A) receptors, was studied in the forced swimming test in rats. The drug, administered intraperitoneally in single doses of 2.5-20 mg/kg, potently and dose-dependently shortened the immobility time. The anti-immobility effect of gepirone (10 mg/kg) was dose-dependently antagonized by the 5-HT1A receptor and alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist, NAN-190 (0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg), the beta-adrenoceptor blocker with the affinity for 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B receptors, pindolol (2 and 4 mg/kg), the 5-HT1A, 5-HT2 and dopamine receptor blocker spiperone (0.01 and 0.03 mg/kg) and by the dopamine receptor antagonist, haloperidol (0.125 and 0.25 mg/kg). On the other hand, the non-selective 5-HT receptor antagonist, metergoline (2 and 4 mg/kg), the selective 5-HT2 receptor antagonist, ketanserin (1 and 2 mg/kg), the selective alpha 1-adrenoceptor blocker, prazosin (0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg) and the beta-blockers with no affinity for 5-HT receptors, betaxolol (4 and 8 mg/kg) and ICI 118,551 (4 and 8 mg/kg), did not affect the anti-immobility effect of gepirone. The effect of gepirone was not modified, either, in animals with a lesion of the 5-HT system, produced by p-chloroamphetamine (PCA, 2 x 10 mg/kg) or p-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA, 3 x 300 mg/kg). The results obtained suggest that the anti-immobility effect of gepirone is mediated by activation of 5-HT1A receptors, most probably located postsynaptically and that dopamine may be involved in this action. 相似文献

Clonidine, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.5 mg/kg administered i.p. as a three-injection course but not as single doses, significantly reduced the immobility of rats in the forced swimming test. Doses of 0.1 and 0.5, administered the same way, significantly reduced activity in an open field. The effect of 0.05 and 0.5 mg/kg clonidine on immobility was prevented by 1 mg/kg idazoxan, an alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist, but not by 3 mg/kg prazosin, which blocks alpha 1-adrenoceptors. An infusion of 6 micrograms/microliters 6-hydroxydopamine in the locus coeruleus, which markedly depleted noradrenaline in terminal regions, did not modify the effect of 0.05 and 0.5 mg/kg clonidine on immobility. Chronic treatment with 5 mg/kg i.p. desipramine or 0.1 mg/kg i.p. clonidine, twice daily for 15 days, did not modify the effect of a three-injection course with 0.1 mg/kg clonidine. It is suggested that clonidine exerts antidepressant-like effects on rats in the forced swimming test by acting on central alpha 2-adrenoceptors outside the locus coeruleus and presumably postsynaptically to noradrenaline-containing neurons. No tolerance or sensitization of the clonidine effect was found after chronic treatment with desipramine or clonidine. These findings are of significance for the effects of clonidine in subgroups of depressed patients. 相似文献

The 5-HT1A agonists buspirone, gepirone and ipsapirone have been shown to possess antidepressive-like properties in several animal models of depression as well as in clinical studies. These compounds are metabolized to 1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-piperazine (1-PP) in rats and humans. In the learned helplessness paradigm, buspirone exhibits a biphasic action: at low or moderate doses it shows an antidepressant-like effect but this action progressively disappears as the doses are increased. In order to establish whether 1-PP affects the reversal of helpless behaviour induced by the 5-HT1A agonists at high doses in rats, we have investigated its role in the learned helplessness. Thus, 1-PP has been evaluated alone (0.06-4 mg/kg/day) or in combination with a selective 5-HT1A agonist 8-OH-DPAT (0.25 mg/kg/day) which is not metabolized to 1-PP and buspirone (0.5 mg/kg/day). In addition, buspirone at a higher dose (2 mg/kg/day) has also been examined in the presence of proadifen which inhibits oxidative metabolism. Our results show that i) daily injections of 1-PP did not reverse helpless behaviour, ii) the reversal of helpless behaviour by 8-OH-DPAT or active dose of buspirone was antagonized by daily coadministration of 1-PP, iii) in rats pretreated with proadifen, the highest inactive dose of buspirone induces a reversal of helpless behaviour. These results strongly suggest that up to a certain concentration 1-PP can impair the effects of the parent drug in the learned helplessness. 相似文献

This study examined the abilities of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) agonists with varying selectivity for different subtypes of 5-HT receptors to produce antidepressant-like behavioral effects in the forced swim test in rats. The 5-HT1A agonists 8-OH-DPAT (0.125–1.0 mg/kg, SC) and tandospirone (SM-3997) (5–20 mg/kg, SC) both produced dose-related decreases in immobility time following subchronic treatment in rats. These effects were similar to those of the tricyclic antidepressants imipramine (5–15 mg/kg) and desipramine (5–15 mg/kg). In addition, the 5-HT1A agonists, buspirone (20 mg/kg), gepirone (20 mg/kg) and ipsapirone (10 and 20 mg/kg) demonstrated antidepressant-like effects. Other groups of rats treated subchronically with each of the 5-HT1A agonists or antidepressants showed no increase in locomotor activity, so that general changes in activity could not account for the reduction of immobility time in the forced swim test. 5-HT agonists selective for other receptor subtypes, such as the 5-HT1B/1C agonistm-CPP (5 mg/kg) and the 5-HT2/1C agonist DOB (1 mg/kg), were not effective in this behavioral test. The benzodiazepine diazepam (5 mg/kg) also failed to reduce immobility time, suggesting that anxiolytic properties of 5-HT1A agonists did not mediate this behavioral effect. A common metabolite of some of the 5-HT1A agonists, 1-PP, was ineffective in reducing immobility time. The stimulantd-amphetamine (2 mg/kg) significantly reduced immobility time but also significantly increased locomotor activity. Pretreatment with the 5-HT synthesis inhibitor PCPA alone did not alter immobility time, and did not alter the antidepressant-like effects of 8-OH-DPAT or tandospirone, suggesting that the 5-HT1A agonists are producing their antidepressant-like effects through postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors. These results suggest that 5-HT1A agonists may have antidepressant efficacy and act as a novel class of antidepressant drug. 相似文献

Pyrimidinylpiperazine anxiolytic drugs-ipsapirone, buspirone and gepirone-dose- dependently increased punished responding in an anticonflict (shock-induced suppression of drinking) paradigm in rats. Similar effect was also produced by their common metabolite 1- (2-pyrimidinyl)piperazine (1-PP). Anticonflict effects of ipsapirone, buspirone and gepirone, administered in maximal doses, were considerably stronger when tested 30 min than 120 min after their administration. Furthermore, anticonflict effects of these drugs, given in subthres hold or medium effective doses, were significantly potentiated by the non-selective drug metabolism inhibitor proadifen. Comparison of these results with literature pharmacokinetic data indicate that the pharmacological effect of ipsapirone, buspirone and gepirone parallels better cerebral concentrations of the parent drugs than 1-PP. Therefore anticonflict activity of the investigated drugs does not seem to be mediated by their common metabolite 1-PP. 相似文献

Ipsapirone and gepirone, analogs of buspirone, a newly developed antianxiety agent, form 1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-piperazine (PmP) during their biotransformation in rats. After oral administration (10 mg/kg) of a parent drug, e.g. ipsapirone or gepirone, the metabolite appears in significant amounts in plasma, with maximal concentrations of 0.9 and 1.4 nmol/ml respectively. The metabolite half-life ranged from about 140 to 200 min. Ipsapirone is eliminated more slowly than gepirone, with a half-life of about 100 and 30 min, respectively. The metabolite to parent drug ratios for the areas under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) were 1 for ipsapirone and 14 for gepirone. PmP (0.5-2 mg/kg p.o), ipsapirone, gepirone and buspirone (5-20 mg/kg p.o.) dose dependently antagonized the slowing of gastrointestinal transit induced by clonidine 0.1 mg/kg s.c. The doses inhibiting the antitransit effect of clonidine by 50% were 0.8 mg/kg for PmP, 14 mg/kg for ipsapirone and 9 mg/kg for both gepirone and buspirone. Analysis of small intestinal longitudinal muscle of rats given the ED50 of PmP, ipsapirone, gepirone, buspirone showed that PmP concentrations in the longitudinal muscle (with attached myenteric plexus) fell within a relatively narrow range and were consistent with the appropriate transit scores. The plasma was also tested for anticlonidine activity. These data indicate that PmP formation is a pharmacologically significant metabolic process for the buspirone-related drugs, ipsapirone and gepirone, and that this metabolite is responsible for the alpha 2-adrenoceptor blocking activity exerted by these drugs in vivo in the rat. 相似文献

In the rat forced swimming test, systemic application of the serotonin 1A (5-HT(1A)) receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT reduced immobility (ID(50) 0.17-1.37mg/kg, depending on route of application and application schedule). Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) or local application into the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN), a brain area rich in presynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptors, resulted in a parallel shift of the dose-response curve to the left (ID(50) 5.1 and 3.9μg/rat, respectively). Systemic application of the 5-HT(1A) receptor partial agonist ipsapirone resulted in a U-shaped dose-response curve (maximal effect about 30% immobility reduction at 3-10mg/kg). Local application of ipsapirone in the DRN reduced immobility (maximal effect 40% at 60μg/rat). However, 8-OH-DPAT and ipsapirone were still effective after depletion of brain 5-HT by means of 5,7-DHT (150μg, i.c.v.) or pCPA (either 2 x 150mg/kg or 2 x 350mg/kg, i.p.) Additionally, in non-lesioned rats: (1) the putative (postsynaptic) 5-HT(1A) antagonist NAN-190, but not spiperone, haloperidol, prazosin or 1-PP, was able to block the anti-immobility effects of 8-OH-DPAT in a behaviorally specific manner; (2) local application of 8-OH-DPAT and ipsapirone in the lateral septum (a brain area rich in postsynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptors) reduced immobility (8-OH-DPAT: ID(50) 11.4μg/rat; ipsapirone; maximal effect at 30μg/rat 38%); and (3) pretreatment with ipsapirone resulted in an attenuation of the effect of 8-OH-DPAT when both compounds were administered either systemically or in the lateral septum but not when both compounds were microinjected into the DRN. It is hypothesized that the anti-immobility effects of 5-HT(1A) receptor agonists are mediated by pre- and postsynaptic 5-HT(1A) receptors and that they closely reflect the intrinsic activity of these compounds at these receptors. 相似文献

Behavioural and pharmacological studies have suggested that anxiety may be an important factor in the initiation of non-opioid analgesia in defeated male mice. In the present study, the effects of three 5-HT1A anxiolytics (buspirone, ipsapirone and gepirone) on basal nociception and defeat analgesia were examined. Results show that the analgesic consequences of social defeat were potently blocked by all three compounds, with a rank-order potency (minimum effective doses) of ipsapirone (0.05 mg/kg) > gepirone (0.1 mg/kg) > buspirone (0.5 mg/kg). These inhibitory effects on defeat analgesia were observed in the absence of intrinsic activity on basal nociception (tail-flick assay). When administered alone, (-)pindolol produced biphasic effects on defeat analgesia with enhancement at 0.5 mg/kg and inhibition at 5.0 mg/kg. Lower doses of (-)pindolol (0.05 and 0.25 mg/kg) which did not affect defeat analgesia when administered alone, totally blocked the inhibitory effects of ipsapirone (0.5 mg/kg). Data are discussed in relation to the involvement of 5-HT1A receptor mechanisms in this adaptive form of pain inhibition. 相似文献

In the conflict drinking test, used as a model to examine anxiolytic-like activity, the novel buspirone analogue 8-[4-[2-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolinyl)]butyl)-8-azaspiro[ 4.5]decane-7,9-dione (MM199) (0.62-2.5 mg/kg) and buspirone (0.62-5 mg/kg), significantly increased the punished drinking in water-deprived rats, without affecting water consumption or perception of the stimulus. The anticonflict activity of MM199 (1.25 mg/kg) was blocked by (S)-WAY 100135 (20 mg/kg), a 5-hydroxytrypatmine1A (5-HT1A) receptor antagonist. In the forced swimming test, used as a model to examine the antidepressant-like activity, MM199 (5-20 mg/kg) reduced the immobility time, while buspirone (5-20 mg/kg) had no such effect. The reduced immobility induced by MM199 (20 mg/kg) was antagonized by (S)-WAY100135 (10 mg/kg). The above findings suggest that MM199 possesses potent anxiolytic- and antidepressant-like properties which are mediated by activation of 5-HT1A receptors. 相似文献

Using the forced swimming test in mice, we examined the effect of the following antidepressants: citalopram, imipramine, desipramine and moclobemide (which are characterized by different mechanisms of action), administered in combination with the selective 5-HT7 receptor antagonist (2R)-1-[(3-hydroxyphenyl)sulfonyl]-2-[2-(4-methyl-1-piperidinyl)ethyl]-pyrrolidine (SB 269970). All those drugs were given in doses which did not shorten the immobility time of mice. Citalopram (1.25 mg/kg), imipramine (10 mg/kg), desipramine (5 mg/kg) or moclobemide (10 mg/kg) administered jointly with SB 269970 (5 mg/kg), produced a significant antidepressant-like effect. None of the compounds studied, given alone or in combination, increased the spontaneous locomotor activity of mice. The obtained results indicate that blockade of 5-HT7 receptors may facilitate the anti-immobility effect of antidepressants in mice. 相似文献

1. The roles of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and dopamine systems in mediating the increased feeding induced by buspirone, gepirone and ipsapirone were investigated. 2. All three compounds induced dose-dependent increases in food intake when administered subcutaneously to free feeding rats. Buspirone was effective over a narrower dose range than either gepirone or ipsapirone, and the maximal effect observed was smaller than the effects elicited by gepirone and ipsapirone. 3. Depletion of brain 5-HT with parachlorophenylalanine (PCPA) prevented the effects of equi-effective doses of gepirone (2.5 mg kg-1) and ipsapirone (2.5 mg kg-1), but failed to prevent buspirone (1 mg kg-1)-induced eating. Thus buspirone does not appear to interact with 5-HT systems to elicit feeding. 4. Gepirone (0.2 micrograms) and ipsapirone (0.04 and 0.2 micrograms) increased food intake when injected into the dorsal raphé nucleus (DRN), presumably by inhibiting the activity of DRN 5-hydroxytryptaminergic afferents. Buspirone (0.04-5 micrograms) was ineffective when injected into the DRN. 5. Pretreatment with haloperidol (0.1 mg kg-1, 30 min) significantly attenuated the effects of equi-effective doses of buspirone, gepirone and ipsapirone, indicating that these drugs interact with dopaminergic systems to increase feeding. 6. Previously it has been shown that each of these drugs increases striatal dopamine activity. Increased dopaminergic neurotransmission in the striatum induces a general behavioural activation, which under certain conditions facilitates feeding. It is possible that this mechanism underlies the behavioural effects of buspirone, gepirone and ipsapirone. The effects of gepirone and ipsapirone probably involve an indirect action to inhibit the activity of DRN 5-hydroxytryptaminergic afferents, whereas buspirone interacts directly with dopaminergic systems. 相似文献

1. 8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino) tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), gepirone, buspirone and ipsapirone dose-dependently antagonized the head-shakes induced by 1-(2,5-dimethoxy 4-iodophenyl)-2-amino propane hydrochloride (DOI) (1.0 mg kg-1) in mice, when these agents were given i.p. 10 min beforehand. 2. para-Chlorophenylalanine (pCPA) abolished the effect of 8-OH-DPAT (0.1 mg kg-1) and of buspirone (1.0 mg kg-1). (+/-)-Pindolol (5.0 mg kg-1) also antagonized the effect of 8-OH-DPAT (0.1 mg kg-1). 3. The alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonists, RX811059 (1.0 mg kg-1), idazoxan (0.5 mg kg-1), yohimbine (1.0 mg kg-1) and 1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-piperazine (1-PP) (2.0 mg kg-1) i.p. prevented the antagonistic effect of 8-OH-DPAT (0.1 mg kg-1) on DOI-head-shakes. 4. Orally-administered buspirone, given 60 min beforehand, only reduced DOI-head-shakes at doses of 60 mg kg-1 and above. However, when buspirone (1.0 mg kg-1) was administered orally twice daily for 21 days, DOI-head-shakes were significantly reduced when tested 60 min after the first daily dose on days 5, 12 and 21 and 48 h after withdrawal. 5. A single oral dose of buspirone (1.0 mg kg-1) strongly antagonized DOI-head-shakes when given 24 h after the last of 4 daily doses of 1-PP (2.0 mg kg-1, p.o.) but had no effect on DOI-head-shakes 24 h after the last of 4 daily doses of water (p.o.).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The contribution of anticholinergic effects to the action of desipramine and nomifensine was investigated in the forced swimming test in rats. The immobility time was reduced by high doses of atropine (10-25 mg/kg i.p.) and scopolamine (1.5 mg/kg i.p., 1 and 0.5 h before the test, respectively) and was unaffected by physostigmine (0.25-0.5 mg/kg i.p., 1 h before the test). Unlike atropine (25 mg/kg), scopolamine (1.5 mg/kg) increased motor activity (open-field). The anti-immobility effect of i.p. desipramine (20 or 30 mg/kg) and nomifensine (2.5 or 5 mg/kg), administered 24, 5 and 1 h before the test, was potentiated by scopolamine (0.5-1.0 mg/kg) and antagonized by physostigmine (0.25-0.5 mg/kg). The brain levels of desipramine and nomifensine were unaffected by scopolamine or physostigmine. Motor performance was impaired in rats treated with physostigmine and desipramine whereas hypermotility was observed in rats treated with scopolamine and nomifensine. The anti-immobility effect of atropine (25 mg/kg) and scopolamine (1.5 mg/kg) was not antagonized by physostigmine (0.5 mg/kg). These results indicate that anticholinergic mechanisms alone are not sufficient to influence immobility time and suggest that the cholinergic system may control, the neural circuitry upon which desipramine and nomifensine act to reduce immobility time. 相似文献

The mechanism of the antidepressant-like activity of the selective 5-hydroxytryptamine(1B) (5-HT(1B)) receptor agonist 5-propoxy-3-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridinyl)-1H-pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyridine (CP 94253) was studied in the forced swimming test in mice. CP 94253 administered intraperitoneally at a single dose of 5 mg/kg potently shortened the immobility time of mice. The anti-immobility effect of CP 94253 was wholly blocked by the selective 5-HT(1B) receptor antagonist N-[3-(2-dimethylamino)ethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl]-2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4-carboxamide (SB 216641, 5 mg/kg), the dopamine D2-like receptor antagonist sulpiride (50 mg/kg) and the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist idazoxan (2 mg/kg), but was not modified in animals with a lesion of the 5-HT system produced by p-chlorophenylalanine (p-CPA, 3 x 300 mg/kg). The obtained results suggest that the anti-immobility effect of CP 94253 is mediated by activation of 5-HT(1B) receptors-most probably located postsynaptically and/or as heteroreceptors, and that the dopamine and the noradrenaline systems are involved in this action. 相似文献

Potential antidepressant properties of 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin, a selective serotonin1A receptor agonist 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), a selective serotonin1A receptor agonist, was studied for its anti-immobility activity in the forced swimming test after different schedules of treatment. Single doses of 0.250 and 0.500 mg/kg 8-OH-DPAT s.c. reduced the immobility time of rats with no effect on open-field activity. Similar results were obtained with a three-injection course of 8-OH-DPAT in 24 h (doses from 0.125 to 0.500 mg/kg s.c.) or with a once daily injection of 0.250 mg/kg s.c. 8-OH-DPAT for 7 or 21 days. Methiothepin 0.2 mg/kg s.c. and 1-propranolol 20 mg/kg s.c. significantly antagonized the anti-immobility effect of three injections of 0.25 mg/kg s.c. 8-OH-DPAT but 2 mg/kg i.p. metergoline had no such effect. The effect of 8-OH-DPAT was also antagonized both by 0.5 mg/kg i.p. haloperidol and 100 mg/kg i.p. sulpiride, and in animals given an intracerebroventricular injection of 150 micrograms 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine to deplete brain serotonin levels. The results show that 8-OH-DPAT, by acting on serotonin neurons in the brain, produces disinhibitory effects in a rat model predictive of antidepressant activity and suggest that serotonin1A agonists such as 8-OH-DPAT could constitute a novel class of rapid-acting antidepressant agents. 相似文献

Lamotrigine is an anticonvulsant drug that is also effective in the treatment of mood disorders, especially bipolar disorder. However, few studies have been conducted in animal models of depression to evaluate its mechanism of action. The present study investigated the effect of lamotrigine in the forced swimming test in mice and the involvement of the noradrenergic system in this effect. Lamotrigine (20-30 mg/kg, i.p.) decreased the immobility time in the forced swimming test and the number of crossings in the open-field test. In addition, the pretreatment of mice with the inhibitor of the enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase, alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (100 or 250 mg/kg), prevented the antidepressant-like effect of lamotrigine (30 mg/kg, i.p.) in the forced swimming test. Besides that, the pretreatment of mice with prazosin (1 mg/kg, i.p., an alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonist) or yohimbine (1 mg/kg, i.p., an alpha2-adrenoceptor antagonist) also prevented the anti-immobility effect of lamotrigine (30 mg/kg, i.p.). Moreover, the administration of subeffective doses of phenylephrine (5 mg/kg, i.p., an alpha1-adrenoceptor agonist) or clonidine (0.06 mg/kg, i.p., an alpha2-adrenoceptor agonist) was able to potentiate the action of a subeffective dose of lamotrigine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) in the forced swimming test. Thus, the present study suggests that the antidepressant-like effect of lamotrigine in the forced swimming test is related to the noradrenergic system, likely due to an activation of alpha1- and alpha2-postsynaptic adrenoceptors. 相似文献

In the present study, we examined effects of the selective serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) reuptake inhibitor citalopram, the 5-HT/noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor imipramine, the selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor desipramine or the monoamine oxidase-A inhibitor moclobemide, administered in combination with the 5-HT(1A) receptor antagonist N-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]ethyl]-N-(2-pyridynyl)cyclohexanecarboxamide (WAY 100635) or the 5-HT(1B/1D) receptor antagonist N-[4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]-2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl)1,1'-biphenyl-4-carboxamide (GR 127935) and the 5-HT(1B) receptor antagonist N-[3-(2-dimethylamino) ethoxy-4-methoxyphenyl]-2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4-carboxamide (SB 216641) in the forced swimming test in rats. When given alone, citalopram (20 and 30 mg/kg), imipramine (20 mg/kg), desipramine (20 mg/kg), moclobemide (20 mg/kg), WAY 100635 (0.1 and 1 mg/kg), GR 127935 (10 and 20 mg/kg) or SB 216641 (2 mg/kg) did not shorten the immobility time of rats. Co-administration of WAY 100635 (0.1 and 1 mg/kg) and citalopram (20 mg/kg), or imipramine (20 mg/kg), or moclobemide (20 mg/kg) did not affect the immobility time of rats, whereas WAY 100635 given jointly with desipramine (20 mg/kg) induced a weak anti-immobility effect. GR 127935 (10 and 20 mg/kg) or SB 216641 (2 mg/kg) co-administered with imipramine, desipramine or moclobemide, but not citalopram, produced a significant anti-immobility action in the forced swimming test in rats. These results indicate that the blockade of 5-HT(1B) rather than 5-HT(1A) receptors may facilitate the anti-immobility effect of imipramine, desipramine or moclobemide in the forced swimming test. No interaction was observed between 5-HT(1A) or 5-HT(1B/1D) receptor antagonists and citalopram. 相似文献

The mechanism of the antidepressant-like activity of the selective 5-hydroxytryptamine(6) (5-HT(6) receptor antagonist N-[3,5-dichloro-2-(methoxy)phenyl]-4-(methoxy)-3-(1-piperazinyl)benzenesulfonamide (SB-399885) was studied in the forced swim test in rats. SB-399885 administered intraperitoneally at a single dose of 10 mg/kg potently shortened the immobility time in rats. That potential antidepressant-like effect of SB-399885 was not modified in animals with a lesion of the 5-HT system produced by p-chloroamphetamine (p-CA, 2 x 10 mg/kg). The anti-immobility effect of SB-399885 was blocked by the dopamine D(1)- and D(2)-like receptor antagonists SCH 23390 (0.063 mg/kg) and sulpiride (10 mg/kg), respectively, as well as by the alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist idazoxan (4 mg/kg), but it was not changed by the alpha(1)-adrenoceptor antagonist prazosin (1 mg/kg). Neither sulpiride (10 mg/kg) or idazoxan (4 mg/kg) nor SCH-23390 (0.063 mg/kg) administered jointly with SB-399885 (10 mg/kg) noticeably changed the exploratory locomotor activity of rats evaluated by the open field test. The results described in the present paper indicate that the anti-immobility activity of SB-399885 is not connected with 5-HT innervation, and that D(1)- and D(2)-like receptors and alpha(2)-adrenoceptors are involved in this action. 相似文献

The effects of gepirone at 3, 9 and 27mg/kg (b.i.d.) on benzodiazepine (BZ) withdrawal signs were studied in rats pretreated with chlordiazepoxide for 21 days at doses up to 40mg/kg b.i.d. The BZ withdrawal indices studied were weight loss and anorexia. At 9 and 27, but not 3mg/kg (b.i.d.) gepirone potentiated the weight loss and anorexia seen during BZ withdrawal. These effects could not be attributed simply to high dose drug-induced "malaise" inhibiting food intake, since in drug-naive animals gepirone stimulated food intake and increased bodyweight. These data show clearly that gepirone potentiates BZ withdrawal signs. Similar findings have been reported recently in studies with ipsapirone (Goudie and Leathley, 1991). Such effects could be mediated by the a(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist actions of 1-(2-pyrimidinyl)piperazine (1-PP), an active metabolite of both gepirone and ipsapirone. Such findings may explain why prior BZ experience impairs the clinical response to buspirone-type anxiolytics acting at the 5-HT(1A) receptor. 相似文献

The antidepressant-like effects of N-palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), a putative endocannabinoid, was investigated in mice using the tail suspension test (TST) and the forced swimming test (FST). In TST, PEA (10, 20, and 40 mg/kg) produced a statistically significant reduction in immobility (50, 32, and 34%, respectively, vs. the control group), whereas fluoxetine (20 mg/kg) reduced immobility by 38%. In FST, PEA (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg) produced a statistically significant reduction in immobility (15, 21, and 36%, respectively), whereas fluoxetine (20 mg/kg) reduced immobility by 18%. Moreover, PEA (20 mg/kg) did not significantly change motor activity in a spontaneous behavioral test. In conclusion, PEA (dose range of 5-40 mg/kg) administered orally reduced immobility in TST and FST, comparable to the antidepressant effect of fluoxetine, and had no effect on spontaneous activity in mice. 相似文献
