  • Background: Serotonin receptors can be divided into seven different families with various subtypes. The serotonin 1A (5-HT1A) receptor is one of the most abundant subtypes in animal brains. The expression of 5-HT1A receptors in the brain has been reported in various animals but has not been studied in horses. The 5-HT1A receptor functions related to emotions and behaviors, thus it is important to understand the functional effects and distribution of 5-HT1A receptors in horses to better understand horse behavior and its associated mechanism. Methods: Brain samples from seven different regions, which were the frontal, central, and posterior cerebral cortices, cerebellar cortex and medulla, thalamus, and hypothalamus, were collected from six horses. Western blot analysis was performed to validate the cross-reactivity of rabbit anti-5-HT1A receptor antibody in horse samples. Immunofluorescence was performed to evaluate the localization of 5-HT1A receptors in the brains. Results: The protein bands of 5-HT1A receptor appeared at approximately 50 kDa in the frontal, central, and posterior cerebral cortices, cerebellar cortex, thalamus, and hypothalamus. In contrast, no band was observed in the cerebellar medulla. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that the cytoplasm of neurons in the cerebral cortices, thalamus, and hypothalamus were immunostained for 5-HT1A receptors. In the cerebellar cortex, 5-HT1A was localized in the cytoplasm of Purkinje cells. Conclusions: In conclusion, the study suggests that 5-HT and 5-HT1A receptor systems may play important roles in the central nervous system of horses, based on the widespread distribution of the receptors in the horse brain.

  • Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) has been known to have peripheral actions as well as central actions. Recently physiological roles of 5-HT as a central neurotransmitter have been studied in detail and this is a subject of the present study. Plausible central actions mediated by 5-HT receptor seem to be a control of appetite, bring about psychiatric disorders such as anxiety or dementia, and migraine headache. In this study, thirty-five medicinal plants were tested for their antagonistic activities to 5-HT mediated actions. Through the preliminary screening, methanol extracts of three medicinal plants (Saussureae Radix, Sanguisorbae Radix and Xanthii Fructus) were shown to possess relatively specific antagonistic activities to 5-HT mediated ileal contraction over acetylcholine. To luther investigate the central antagonistic activities of the selected plant in vivo, m-chlorophenylpiperazine (mCPP) which is known to be a 5-H $T_{1c}$ receptor agonist was injected to mouse to induce an anxious and/or hypolocomotion states, and also social interaction test, which was based on the method described by File (S.E. File, 1980), was performed to see whether ethylacetate fraction of Sanguisorbae Radix methanol extract possessed a specific anxiolytic activity.y.

  • 5-Hydroxytryptamine(5-HT, serotonin), when given into the vein, produced antidiuretic action accompanied with reduction of glomerular filtration(GFR), renal plasma flow(RPF), osmolar clearance(Cosm) and amounts of sodium or potassium excreted in urine( $E_{Na}$ , $E_{K}$), with the augmented reabsorption rates of sodium and potassium in renal tubules. 5-HT, when infused into a renal artery, exhibited diuretic action accompanied with the augmented RPF and increased $E_{Na}$ and $E_{K}$ in only infused kidney. Antidiuretic action of 5-HT infused into the vein was not influenced by ketanserin, 5-H $T_2$receptor blockade, given into a renal artery, vein or carotid artery, by methysergide, 5-H $T_1$receptor blockade, given into a renal artery, whereas above antidiuretic action was inhibited by methysergide given into vein or carotid artery. Diuretic action of 5-HT infused into a renal artery in only experimental kidney was blocked by ketanserin injected into a renal artery, was not influenced by methysergide administered into a renal artery. Above results suggest that 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) produced the antidiuretic action through central 5-H $T_1$receptor and the diuretic action through 5-H $T_2$receptor located in renal tubules of kidney.ney.

  • Central tryptaminergic system has been shown to play an important role in the regulation of renal function: $5-HT_1(5-hydroxytryptamine_1)$ receptors might seem to mediate the diuresis and natriuresis, whereas the $5-HT_2\;and\;5-HT_3$ receptors mediate the antidiuretic and antinatriuretic effects. This study attempted to delineate the role of central $5-HT_{1A}$ subtype in the regulation of rabbit renal function by observing the renal effects of intracerebrovent-ricularly(icv)-administered PAPP(p-aminorhenylethyl-m-trifluoromethytphenyl piperazine, LY165163), a selective agonist of $5-HT_{1A}$ receptors. PAPP in doses ranging from 40 to $350{\mu}g/kg$ icv induced significantly diuresis, natriuresis, and kaliuresis, along with increased renal perfusion and glomerular filtration. Systemic blood pressure was also increased. Free water reabsorption$(T^cH_2O)$, a measure of ADH(antidiuretic hormone) secretion, was increased also. Intravenous $350{\mu}g/kg$ of PAPP elicited antidiuresis and antinatriuresis together with decreased blood pressure, thus indicating that the effects of icv PAPP were brought about through the central mechanisms, not by direct peripheral effects of the drug on kidney. Ketanserin, a selective $5-HT_2$ antagonist, $40{\mu}g/kg$ icv, did not affect the renal effects of the icv PAPP. Methysergide, a non-selective $5-HT_1$ antagonist, also did not block the renal functional responses by the icv PAPP. NAN-190, a $5-HT_{1A}$ antagonist, also did not antagonized the renal action of the icv PAPP. However the increased free water reabsorption was abolished by both methysergide or ketanserin pretreatment. The increments of blood pressure by icv PAPP was blocked only by NAN-190 pretreatment. These observations suggest that the central $5-HT_{1A}$ receptor might be involved in the central regulation of rabbit renal function by exerting the diuretic and natriuretic influences.

  • 세로토닌(serotonin, 5-HT)은 아민류 가운데 카테콜아민과 더불어 중요한 체네 생리 및 행동 조절을 담당하는 신경 전달물질이다. 특히 'Prozac'으로 잘 알려진 항우울제는 5-HT의 세포내 재흡수를 선택적으로 억제하는 약물(selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, SSRI)로써 광범위하게 사용중인 약물인데, 알려진 부작용으로 사정 능력의 변화가 관찰된다. 이는 5-HT에 의한 성 행동 또는 성 기능 조절기작이 있음을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 수컷 흰쥐의 성 행동 조절에 관여함이 잘 알려진 5-HT의 중추 신경계 수준에서의 작용 외에 말초 조직 수준에서 직접 작용이 가능한가의 여부를 검증하기 위해서 정소, 정관, 저정낭 등 수컷 흰쥐의 생식 기관들을 대상으로 5-HT 수용체 아형들의 유전자 발현 여부를 조사하였다. 적출된 뇌, 정소, 정관, 저정낭, 음경해면체 등의 장기에서 추출한 total RNA로 5-HT 수용체 각 아형들에 대한 RT-PCR을 시행한 결과, 대조군인 뇌는 물론 모든 생식 기관에서 다양한 5-HT수용체 아형들의 mRNA발현을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 사정 반응을 담당하는 최종 장기인 저정낭과 정관에서, 지금까지 여러 연구 결과에서 사정 현상에 관여할 것으로 추정되어 온 5-H $T_{1A}$, 5-H $T_{1B}$, 5-H $T_{2C}$ 수용체 아형들이 실제로 발현됨을 관찰하였다. 이 결과는 5-HT에 의한 성 행동 조절이 중추신경계 수준에서는 물론 말초 조직 수준에서도 직접 가능함을 시사하는 것이다. 본 연구의 시도와 같이 5-HT의 다양한 작용기전에 대한 조사는 포유동물 성 행동에 대한 이해 증진과 더불어 성기능 이상의 부작용이 적은 새로운 항우울제의 개발로 연결될 수 있다고 판단된다.다.다.다.ized freezing방법간에 큰 차이가 없음을 볼 수 있었다.유의 경우 $World-Labs^(R)$ 처리구가 가장 높았다.상으로 면역활성 실험을 실시한 결과, 장관면역 활성은 젖산균의 세포질 획분에서 양성 대조군으로 사용한 LPS와 같은 수준의 면역활성을 나타내었고, 특히 Lb. acidophilus속 균주들의 세포벽 획분의 장관 면역활성이 다른 균주보다 높게 나타났다. 한편 젖산균주의 세포질과 세포벽 성분에 대한 비장 림프구의 증식능은 대조군과 비슷한 수준으로 낮게 관찰되었으나, 이들의 대식 세포증식능은 세포벽 및 세포질 모두의 획분에서 대조군보다 높았으며 특히 세포벽 획분의 경우에는 양성대조군인 LPS 보다 높거나 유사한 정도의 높은 활성을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과로부터 시험 균주 중에서 Lb. acidophilus 균주인 DDS-1과 B-3208이 프로바이오틱스로서 요구되는 조건을 충족시킨다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 이들 균주의 상업적 이용 가능성을 재차 확인할 수 있었다./TEX>, 함량은 가공된 냉동감자보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. 상온 냉장저장 감자의 vitamin $B_1$, $B_2$ 함량은 각각 6, 4주차 이후부터 급격한 감소를 보였으나, 냉동저장 감자의 경우 48주(12개월)저장 중 함량변화가 없었다. 물성적 품질변화 평가에서 상온 냉장저장 감자의 무게와 부피는 24주간 다소 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 통계적인 유의차는 없었다. 냉동저장 감자의 무게와 부피 변화는 48주간 전혀 없었다. 상온 냉장저장 감자의 조직의 강도(hardness)는 24주간 다소 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 냉동저장 감자는 48주간 hardness의 변화가 전혀 없었다.

  • In order to discover new types of 5-hydroxytryptamine antagonists, we have devoted our attention to investigating naturally occurring compounds having anti-5HT activity in vitro. Recently, ${\gamma}$-mangostin [1,3,6,7-tetrahydroxy-2,8-bis(3-methyl-2-bytenyl)-9H-xanthen-9-one] from the fruit hull of Garcinia mangostana Linn has been shown to be a selective antagonist for 5-hydroxytryptamine$_{2A}$ receptors in smooth muscle and platelets. It is of interesting that y-mangostin which does not have a nitrogen atom, possesses marked 5-$HT_{2A}$ receptor blocking activity. The present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of ${\gamma}$-mangostin on central 5-HT receptors by using animal behavioural models. Intracerebronventricular injection of ${\gamma}$-mangostin (10-40n mol/mouse) inhibited 5-fluoro-${\alpha}$-methyltryptamin (5-FMT) (45 mg kg$^{-1}$, i.p.)-induced head-twitch response in mice in the presence or absence of citalopram (5-HT-uptake inhibitor). Neither the 5-FMT- nor the 8-hydroxy-2-( di-n-propylamino )tetralin (5-HT$_{1A}$-agonist)-induced 5-HT syndrome (head weaving and hindlimb abduction) was affected by ${\gamma}$-mangostin. The locomotor activity stimulated by 5-FMT through the activation of at-adrenoceptors did not alter in the presence of ${\gamma}$-mangostin. 5-HT-induced inositol phosphates accumulation in mouse brain slices was abolished by ketanserin. ${\gamma}$-Mangostin caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of the inositol phosphates accumulation and the binding of [$^3H$]-spiperone, a specific 5-$HT_{2A}$ receptor antagonist, to mouse brain membranes. Kinetic analysis of the [$^H3$]-spiperone binding revealed that ${\gamma}$-mangostin increased the $_{d}$ value without affecting the $B_{max}$ value, indicating the mode of the competitive nature of the inhibition by ${\gamma}$-mangostin. These results suggest that ${\gamma}$-mangostin inhibits 5-FMT-induced head-twitch response in mice by blocking 5-$HT_{2A}$ receptors not by blocking the release of 5-HT from the central neurone. ${\gamma}$-Mangostin is a promising 5-$HT_{2A}$ receptors antagonist in the central nervous system.m.

  • Serotonin (5-HT; 5-hydroxytryptamine) exerts multiple effects on central nervous system as well as behaviors such as mood and appetite. The signaling of serotonin is mediated by 7 families of serotonin receptors, designated 5-HT$_1$ to 5-HT$_{7}$. Six families of this receptor are G-protein coupled 7TM receptors, and the third intracellular loop of these receptors is proposed to interact with specific types of G-proteins. To investigate the specific interaction between the third intracellular loop of 5-HT$_{6}$ with G$\square$s, we have constructed a chimera protein that represent the third intracellular loop of 5-HT$_{6}$ within a leucine zipper motifs, In addition an alpha subunit of human G-protein that interact with 5-HT$_{6}$ was cloned into a bacterial expression vector. The two proteins were expressed in E. coli and purified in homogeneity. The interaction of the prepared proteins was examined by ELISA assay. The affinity between the two proteins and effect of insertion mutations were discussed.ussed.d.

  • 신장기능조절에 있어서 중추 tryptamine계가 관련되어 있으며, $5-HT_1$수용체는 이뇨적인 역할을 하고 있는 반면에 $5-HT_2$$5-HT_3$수용체는 항이뇨적인 영향을 미치고 있음이 밝혀진 바 있다. 또한 $5-HT_1$수용체도 단일하지 않고 여러 subtype가 존재함이 알려져 있다. $5-HT_{1A}$수용체의 역할에 관해서는 신기능에 이뇨적인 영향을 미치고 있음이 시사된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 중추 tryptamine성 신기능 조절에 있어서 $5-HT_{1B}$수용체의 역할을 구명하고자 하였다. 선택적 $5-HT_{1B}$ agonist인 TFMPP $8{\sim}750\;{\mu}g/kg$을 가토 측뇌실내로 투여하면 투여량에 비례하여 이뇨 및 Na과 K 배설의 증가를 초래하였으며, $250\;{\mu}g/kg$ 투여시에는 Na의 배설 분획이 5.44%까지 증가하였다. Na배설 촉진작용은 신혈류역학의 증가 보다도 훨씬 지속하여, 세뇨관에서의 Na재흡수 감소작용이 체액성 기전임을 시사하였다. TFMPP $250\;{\mu}g/kg$ icv투여시에 natriuresis와 함께 혈장내 atrial natriuretic peptide 농도가 약 6배 증가되었다. TFMPP $250\;{\mu}g/kg$을 정맥내로 투여하였을때는 뇌실내 투여시와는 상이하게 신기능에 별다른 유의한 변동을 초래하지 않았다. 이와같은 TFMPP의 diuresis 및 natriuresis는 각각 $5-HT_2$$5-HT_3$ 수용체의 선택적 antagonist인 ketanserin과 MDL 72222의 전처치에 의하여 차단되지 않았으며, methysergide에 의해서도 억제되지 않았다. 또한 $5-HT_{1A}$ antagonist로 알려진 NAN-190도 TFMPP의 작용을 차단하지 못하였으며 S(-)-propranolol도 영향을 미치지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과 중추 $5-HT_{1B}$수용체는 신장기능에 이뇨 및 Na배설 촉진적인 영향을 미치고 있고 이작용에 atrial natriuretic peptide가 관여함을 알 수 있었다.

  • The aim of this study is to develop and synthesize $5-HT_{1A}$ receptor imaging agents with WAY-100635 moiety and $^{99m}Tc(CO)_3$ core. WAY-100635 is commonly known as $5-HT_{1A}$ antagonist and its labeled compound ([$^{11}C$] WAY-100635) has been used as effective radioligand for imaging brain $5-HT_{1A}$ receptors with PET(Positron Emission Tomography). However, there are several restrictions in using a radioisotope of C-11 and requires for more effective radioisotopes and ligands. In order to produce a structure most similar to WAY-100635, WAY-100635 derivatives containing a cysteine chelator were designed and confirmed by using in silico (Hyperchem). The novel compounds (7a, 7b, 7c) were prepared in five or 7 steps with yields of 16%, 36% and 42%, respectively and radiolabeled with $[^{99m}Tc(CO)_3(H_2O)_3]^{+}$. The labeling yield was 99% for all the newly synthesized compounds. [$^{99m}Tc(CO)_3$]- WAY-100635 derivatives show a neutral charge which were confirmed by paper electrophoresis.

  • 세로토닌 수용체 5-$HT_{1A}$에 대한 방사성추적자로 알려진 $^{18}F$-mefway를 개선된 방법으로 합성하고, 소 동물 뇌 microPET 연구를 통해서 이 수용체에 선택적으로 결합하는 지를 확인하려고 한다. 기존 합성 방법을 수정하여 전구체를 합성하고, $[^{18}F]^-$$130^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 교반하여 $^{18}F$-mefway를 합성하여, Solid phase extraction(SPE)과 HPLC를 이용해 정제한 다음, 소동물 뇌의 microPET 다이나믹 영상을 얻었다. Oxalyl chloride와 LAH/diethyl ether을 사용해서 기존 합성수율 9%에서 34%로 $^{18}F$-mefway 전구체를 향상된 수율로 합성할 수 있는 개선된 방법을 확립하였다. 이렇게 합성된 $^{18}F$-mefway는 세로토닌 5-$HT_{1A}$수용체 영상용 방사성 의약품으로서 신경정신질환 연구에 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
