Abstract:
:The present study has examined the functional activity of the 5-HT1D receptor agonist, sumatriptan, and antagonists, GR127935 (2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-[1,2,4]oxadiazol-3-yl)-biphenyl-4-carboxyl ic acid [4-methoxy-3-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-phenyl]-amide), GR55562 (3-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-4-hydroxy-N-[4-(4-pyridinyl)phenyl] benzamide), metergoline and methiothepin in HeLa cells, stably transfected with either 5-HT1D alpha or 5-HT1D beta receptor subtypes. Sumatriptan, GR127935 and metergoline (each 0.01-1 microM) behaved as agonists, producing a concentration-dependent inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) production at both 5-HT1D alpha and 5-HT1D beta receptor subtypes (mean pIC50 values of 8.4 and 8.3 for sumatriptan, 7.9 and 8.0 for GR127935, and 7.9 and 8.3 for metergoline, respectively). In contrast, GR55562 and methiothepin behaved as competitive 5-HT1D receptor antagonists and were devoid of any agonist activity. GR55562 (10 microM) caused a rightward displacement of the GR127935 and metergoline concentration-response curves. The agonist activity of GR127935 and metergoline, observed in the present study, contrasts with their recognised 5-HT1D receptor antagonist profiles in animal isolated tissue and behavioural models. Unlike GR127935, GR55562 behaved as a silent antagonist at the cloned human 5-HT1D alpha and 5-HT1D beta receptors in the study.
