The present study was undertaken to investigate the interaction of tetrandrine and different 5-HT receptors on pentobarbital-induced sleep by using the loss-of-righting reflex method. The results showed that augmentative effect of tetrandrine on pentobarbital hypnosis in mice were potentiated by the p-MPPI （5-HT1A receptor antagonist） （1 mg/kg, i.p.） and ketanserin （5-HT2A/2C receptor antagonist） （1.5 mg/kg, i.p.）, respectively. Pretreatment with either 8-OH-DPAT （5-HT1A receptor agonist） （0.1 mg/kg, s.c.） or DOI （5-HT2A/2C receptor agonist） （0.2 mg/kg, i.p.） significantly decreased pentobarbital-induced sleep time, and tetrandrine （60 mg/kg, i.g.） significantly reversed this effect. These results suggest that both the 5-HTLA and 5-HT2A/2C subfamily may be involved in the potentiating mechanism of tetrandrine＇s effects on pantobarbital hypnosis.展开更多

In this paper, a three dimensional model of human 5-HT1A receptor was constructed by means of homology modeling. And the docking of MP349 to the receptor suggested a reliable binding mode for 5-HT1A receptor ligand. Based on this ligand-receptor binding mode, an elaborate receptor structure based pharmacophore model was established, which revealed many important features responsible for ligand and 5-HT1A receptor interactions. A virtual screening experiment verified the ability of this pharmacophore model to discover true 5-HT1A receptor ligand. The results of this research would provide important information for further optimizations of 5-HT1A receptor ligands and guide related new lead discoveries.展开更多

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of Cys23Ser 5-HT2c receptor gene polymorphism and the duration of IELT in men with LPE. Therefore, a prospective study was conducted in 64 Dutch Caucasian men with LPE. Baseline IELT during coitus was assessed by stopwatch over a 1-month period. All men were genotyped for Cys23Ser 5-HT2c receptor gene polymorphism. Allele frequencies and genotypes of Cys and Ser variants of 5-HT2c receptor gene polymorphism were determined. Association between Cys/Cys and Ser/Ser genotypes and the natural logarithm of the IELT in men with LPE were.investigated. As a result, the geometric mean, median and natural mean IELT were 25.2, 27.0, 33.9s, respectively. Of all men, 20.0%, 10.8%, 23.1% and 41.5% ejaculated within 10, 10-20, 20-30 and 30-60s after vaginal penetration. Of the 64 men, the Cys/Cys and Ser/Ser genotype frequency for the Cys23Ser polymorphism of the 5-HT2c receptor gene was 81% and 19%, respectively. The geometric mean IELT of the wildtypes （Cys/Cys） is significantly lower （22.6s; 95% CI 18.3-27.8s） than in male homozygous mutants （Ser/Ser） （40.4s; 95% CI 20.3-80.4s） （P = 0.03）. It is concluded that Cys23Ser 5-HT2c receptor gene polymorphism is associated with the IELT in men with LPE. Men with Cys/Cys genotype have shorter IELTs than men with Ser/Ser genotypes.展开更多

Serotonin （5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT） regulates motoneuron activity from the Onuf’s nucleus of the spinal cord. However, few studies exist that describe 5-HT receptor distribution in the Onuf’s nucleus. In addition, the nature of the effects of 5-HT receptor on the innervating striated muscle of the pelvic floor is controversial. OBJECTIVE： To investigate the distribution of serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT7 receptors in motoneurons of Onuf’s nucleus in the spinal cord of male rats, and to analyze the relationship of 5-HT2A and 5-HT7 receptor to central modulation of urogenital function. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： The neural morphology experiment was performed at the Ultramicro-structure Laboratory of Reproductive Medicine, Basic Medical College, Chongqing Medical University, China from April to December 2007. MATERIALS： Ten adult, Sprague Dawley rats （eight males and two females） were randomly divided into gender control group （n = 4, 50% male and 50% female） and a retrograde tracing group （n = 6, 100% male） Recombinant pseudorabies virus （PRV-152） was provided by Professor LW Enquist from Princeton University, USA. Rabbit anti-5-HT2A and 5-HT7 receptor antibodies were purchased from Diasorin, France. METHODS： In the gender control group, the spinal L5-6 segments were harvested, sliced, and then incubate antibodies specific against 5-HT2A or 5-HT7 receptors for immunohistochemical staining. In the retrograde tracing group, PRV-152 was separately injected into the right ischiocavernosus （ischiocavernosus subgroup, n = 3） and the right external urethral sphincter （external urethral sphincter subgroup, n = 3）. Four days after injection, L5-6 segments were harvested, sliced, and incubated with antibodies specific against 5-HT2A or 5-HT7 receptors for double-labeling immunofluorescence staining. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： Distribution analysis of 5-HT2A and 5-HT7 receptors in Onuf’s nucleus utilizing optical or laser confocal microscopy. RESULTS： 5-HT2A receptor immunoreactivity was revealed primarily in the medial region of the dorsolateral nucleus of Onuf’s nucleus. 5-HT7 receptor expression was observed in the lateral part of the dorso-lateral nucleus. 5-HT2A and 5-HT7 receptor expressions in the Onuf’s nucleus were significantly greater in male rats, compared to female rats. Double-labeling immunofluorescence demonstrated that 5-HT2A recepto were distributed primarily in the surrounding motoneurons innervating the ischiocavernosus, and 5-HT7 receptors were primarily expressed in motoneurons innervating the external urethral sphincter. CONCLUSION： Motoneurons innervating the ischiocavernosus and external urethral sphincter are located primarily in the medial and lateral region of the dorsolateral nucleus of L5-6 segments. The 5-HT2A receptor-innervating ischiocavernosus may be preferentially involved in the regulation of sexual reflex, and the 5-HT7 receptor-innervating external urethral sphincter may mainly join in regulating micturition reflex.展开更多
