The ability of selective serotonin (5-HT) receptor agonists to
reduce the extracellular concentration of 5-HT was examined in the
striatum of awake, unrestrained mice by in vivo microdialysis. Systemic
administration of either 8-OH-PIPAT
{R-(+)-trans-8-hydroxy-2-[N-n-propyl-N-(3'-iodo-2'-propenyl)] aminotetralin}, a novel 5-HT1A receptor agonist, or CP
94,253, a selective 5-HT1B receptor agonist, resulted in
significant dose-related reductions of striatal 5-HT. The effect of
8-OH-PIPAT (1.0 mg/kg) was blocked by pretreatment with WAY 100635 (0.1 mg/kg), a selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, but it was
not blocked by pretreatment with GR 127935 (0.056 mg/kg), a selective
5-HT1B/1D receptor antagonist. The effect of CP 94,253 (1.0 mg/kg) was blocked by pretreatment with GR 127935 (0.056 mg/kg) but was
not blocked by pretreatment with WAY 100635 (0.1 mg/kg). Neither WAY
100635 nor GR 127935 altered extracellular 5-HT levels at the doses
that were able to completely block the effects of either 8-OH-PIPAT or
CP 94,253. The present findings suggest that, on systemic
administration, both 8-OH-PIPAT and CP 94,253 are potent and selective
agonists at the somatodendritic 5-HT1A autoreceptor and
terminal 5-HT1B/1D autoreceptor, respectively, and are each
able to cause decreases in extracellular levels of 5-HT in the mouse
striatum by activating a distinct set of receptors.
