    Abstract:
    5-Hydroxytryptamine 5-HT1B/5-HT1D receptors are members of the same receptor subfamily, but display a different pharmacology (Hartig et al. (1992) Trends Pharmacol Sci 13: 152-159). Whereas several cell lines have been reported to contain 5-HT1B receptors, none has been described, however, that endogenously expresses well-characterized 5-HT1D receptors. The present study deals with the identification of 5-HT1D receptors inhibiting cyclic AMP accumulation in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. 5-HT (1 nM-10 microM) induced a concentration-dependent inhibition of the cyclic AMP accumulation stimulated by prostaglandin E1 (1 microM) in MDCK cells. The maximal effect of 5-HT averaged 50% inhibition and was abolished after a pre-treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin. Other agonists mimicked the effects of 5-HT, with the following rank order of potency (pEC50 +/- SEM, n > or = 3): 5-carboxamidotryptamine (8.36 +/- 0.48) > PAPP (p-aminophenylethyl-m-trifluoromethylphenyl piperazine. 7.89 +/- 0.23) > 5-HT (7.35 +/- 0.05) > sumatriptan (6.65 +/- 0.27). PAPP behaved as a partial agonist. 8-OH-DPAT (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin) was less potent, its maximal effect being not reached at 0.1 mM. Methiothepin. GR127935, (-)propranolol, rauwolscine and ketanserin were all devoid of intrinsic activity (up to 10 microM or 0.1 mM). Methiothepin (10 nM. 0.1 microM and 1 microM) antagonized 5-HT effect (pA2 8.57 +/- 0.44. Schild slope 1.17 +/- 0.21, n = 3).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
