Abstract:
:The physiological role of 5-hydroxytryptamine6 receptors in the central nervous system has not yet been elucidated. The high affinity of various psychotropic drugs for 5-hydroxytryptamine6 receptors has led to the suggestion that this receptor type may be a novel target in neuropsychiatry. We have found that continuous intracerebroventricular administration of a 5-hydroxytryptamine6 receptor antisense oligonucleotide, but not of a missense oligonucleotide, produced an anxiogenic-like response in rats using two different models of anxiety, the social interaction test and the elevated plus-maze. Neither oligonucleotide treatment modified locomotor activity, rectal temperature or food intake, suggesting a low or null neurotoxicity. The effectiveness of the treatment with the designed antisense oligonucleotide to block the synthesis of the protein encoded by the target mRNA was assessed by immunolabelling 5-hydroxytryptamine6 receptors in the nucleus accumbens, where this receptor is highly expressed, using previously characterized specific antibodies. The density of the immunostaining was quantified by means of an unbiased three-dimensional stereologic procedure, which revealed a significant reduction (-25%) in the number of immunolabelled neuronal elements. These results suggest that, in addition to other 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor subtypes, 5-hydroxytryptamine6 receptors in the nucleus accumbens may participate in anxiety-related neurobiological mechanisms.
