Abstract:
:Extracellular recordings were made from serotonergic neurons of the rat dorsal raphe nucleus in a slice preparation. In the presence of phenylephrine (3 microM) to restore the pacemaker activity of otherwise silent serotonergic neurons, superfusion with the 5-hydroxytryptamine1A agonist ipsapirone depressed the firing of these neurons with an IC50 of approximately 50 nM. Complete inhibition was achieved with 100-300 nM of the drug. Concomitant superfusion with the 5-hydroxytryptamine1A antagonists spiperone (100 nM) or propranolol (10 microM) markedly reduced the inhibitory effect of ipsapirone (100 nM). Superfusion with K+ channel blockers such as apamin (50-100 nM), charybdotoxin (100 nM) or Ba2+ (1 mM) did not induce any changes in the electrical activity of serotonergic neurons. However, 4-aminopyridine (0.1-1 mM) disrupted the regularity of their discharge without affecting the mean firing rate. The ipsapirone-induced inhibition was unchanged by apamin and charybdotoxin, but was markedly reduced by Ba2+ and 4-aminopyridine. Thus the IC50 of ipsapirone was shifted to approximately 150 nM in the presence of 1 mM of 4-aminopyridine. These results indicate that, in serotonergic neurons within the dorsal raphe nucleus, the K+ channel opened through the stimulation of 5-hydroxytryptamine1A autoreceptors is 4-aminopyridine-sensitive.
