Disease relevance of Htr4

 

Psychiatry related information on Htr4

  • Based on these findings, it could be inferred that the increase of brain Allo content elicited by fluoxetine and norfluoxetine, rather than the inhibition selective of 5-HT reuptake, may be operative in the fluoxetine-induced remission of the behavioral abnormalities associated with mood disorders [5].
  • Substantial evidence links alcohol drinking and serotonin (5-HT) functioning in animals [2].
  • These findings have implications for understanding the potential long-term consequences of genetic and pharmacological disruption of 5-HT neurotransmission on cerebral functions during critical periods of postnatal development [6].
  • It is suggested that 5-HT represents a dietary responsive endogenous factor regulating predatory behavior in carnivores [7].
  • Thus, altered 5-HT innervation and/or uptake in the DMX may contribute to abnormal 5-HT modulation of this major autonomic nucleus in patients with Rett syndrome [8].
 

High impact information on Htr4

 

Chemical compound and disease context of Htr4

 

Biological context of Htr4

  • These data suggest that both sequestration and phosphorylation by beta ARK, or another specific agonist-dependent receptor kinase, are involved in homologous desensitization of 5-HT4 receptors coupled to adenylyl cyclase [17].
  • Using degenerate oligonucleotide primers, we identified a rat brain PCR fragment which encoded a '5-HT receptor-like' amino acid sequence [18].
  • The neurotransmitter serotonin (5HT) activates a variety of second messenger signaling systems and through them indirectly regulates the function of ion channels [19].
  • Infection-induced up-regulation of 5-HT2A expression was correlated with the smooth muscle hypercontractility to 5-HT [20].
  • In addition, molecular biology techniques have provided new tools with which to study the function of 5-HT receptors [21].
 

Anatomical context of Htr4

 

Associations of Htr4 with chemical compounds

  • Neurons exposed to other agents, like isoproterenol, vasoactive intestinal peptide, or forskolin, that increase cAMP levels did not undergo any desensitization of 5-HT4 receptors [17].
  • When permeabilized neurons were loaded with heparin, an inhibitor of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK), 5-HT4 receptor desensitization was reduced by 30-40% [17].
  • Activation of protein kinase A with either 8-bromo-cAMP or dibutyryl-cAMP or application of inhibitors of protein kinase A-dependent phosphorylation did not change the rate of 5-HT4-induced desensitization [17].
  • IL-1beta induced an SB203580-sensitive decrease in 5-HT K(m) with no significant change in V(max) [24].
  • Thus, the neurosteroid-induced positive allosteric modulation of GABA action at GABAA receptors is facilitated by fluoxetine or its congeners (i.e., paroxetine, fluvoxamine, sertraline), which may not block 5-HT reuptake at the doses currently prescribed in the clinic [5].
 

Physical interactions of Htr4

 

Regulatory relationships of Htr4

  • In RN46A cells, IL-1beta stimulated 5-HT uptake in a dose- and time-dependent manner, peaking in 20 min at 100 ng/ml [24].
 

Other interactions of Htr4

  • 5-HT and 5-HT(1P) agonists evoked a G protein-mediated long-lasting inward current that was neither mimicked by 5-HT(4) agonists nor blocked by 5-HT(4) antagonists [23].
  • The C57BLKS/J db/db mouse develops hyperglycemia and has delayed gastric emptying that is improved with tegaserod, a partial 5-HT4 agonist [28].
  • In mouse hippocampal neurons, activation of the endogenous 5-HT7 receptors significantly increased neurite length, whereas stimulation of 5-HT4 receptors led to a decrease in the length and number of neurites [29].
  • Serotonin-induced contractions were partially inhibited by atropine, the 5-HT4 antagonist GR113808, and the 5-HT2 antagonist cinanseron but not tetrodotoxin [28].
  • 5HT1c receptor antagonists (mianserin and cyproheptadine), 5-HT3 receptor antagonist (zacopride) and 5-HT4 receptor antagonist (ICS 205-930) increased the latency of audiogenic seizures and decreased the severity of convulsions in young (20-27 days old) DBA/2 mice [30].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Htr4

  • The 5-HT4 receptor: molecular cloning and pharmacological characterization of two splice variants [18].
  • Microdialysis sampling during a 10-min FS showed that NA and 5-HT release were elevated to 213% and 156%, respectively, in the GalOE/P group, whereas in the WT group the increases were only 127% and 119%, respectively [31].
  • In the present study, we combined receptor binding autoradiography with neurochemical ablation of 5-HT axons or electrolytic lesions of the dorsal thalamus in an effort to determine the neural elements upon which the 5-HT1B receptors were located [32].
  • This view is consistent with earlier studies showing that pharmacological activation of the 5-HT system is anxiogenic in animal models and also in humans [33].
  • Carbon fiber microelectrodes were used to measure individual secretory events of histamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) from VMAT2-expressing mast cells as a model system for quantal release [34].
