Synergistic interaction between alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors in rat brain slices: possible site for antidepressant drug action.

Abstract:

:Experiments were undertaken to examine the characteristics of the adrenergic receptor-coupled cAMP system in rat brain slices. It was found that the potentiation of isoproterenol-stimulated cAMP accumulation by 6-fluoronorepinephrine, an alpha-adrenergic agonist, is largely dependent upon the degree of beta-receptor occupancy, with prazosin-sensitive alpha-adrenergic receptors contributing less to this interaction. Chronic administration of a variety of antidepressants decreased the potentiating interaction between 6-fluoronorepinephrine and isoproterenol even under conditions where there were no obvious effects on the alpha- or beta- adrenergic components themselves. Chronic administration of imipramine had no effect on the interaction between 6-fluoronorepinephrine and adenosine, suggesting that the drug selectively modifies the coupling between the alpha- and beta-adrenergic systems. The results suggest that antidepressants influence the coupling between 6-fluoronorepinephrine and isoproterenol receptors independent of any effect on the individual recognition sites.
