Disease relevance of HTR2A

 

Psychiatry related information on HTR2A

  • Several case-control association studies have raised the possibility that the A allele of a -1438 G/A polymorphism in the type 2A serotonin receptor (HTR2A) gene may be a risk factor for anorexia nervosa [5].
  • Genetic association has been reported between a synonymous 102T/C polymorphism in the gene encoding HTR2A and a number of clinical phenotypes, including schizophrenia, clozapine response, psychotic symptoms in Alzheimer's disease and certain features of depression [6].
  • Nominally significant association was found at the HTR2A rs6311 polymorphism in subjects with tic disorder and OCD (p = .05), replicating a previous finding in Tourette syndrome and OCD [7].
  • We report here a case-control association study with T102C polymorphism in the serotonin 2A receptor gene (HTR2A) in patients affected by unipolar affective disorder (UPAD) and in controls [8].
  • The study showed a positive association between panic disorder and the HTR2A gene, suggesting that HTR2A plays an important role in the pathogenesis of panic disorder [9].

Associations of HTR2A with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of HTR2A

  • Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of ligand-receptor complexes were performed for each investigated analogue, docked twice into the central cavity of 5-HT1A/5-HT2A, each time in a different orientation [31].
  • Decreased hippocampal 5-HT2A receptor binding in major depressive disorder: in vivo measurement with [18F]altanserin positron emission tomography [32].
  • IFN did not alter either [3H]ketanserin binding to 5-HT2A receptors or [3H]paroxetine binding to 5-HT transporters [33].
  • Furthermore, we demonstrated using glutathione S-transferase (GST)-fusion proteins of receptor domains that ARF1 and ARF6 bind to the third intracellular loop (i3) and the carboxy terminal tail (ct) of the 5-HT2AR [34].
  • The inhibitory effect of preincubation with MRS2365 was circumvented by activation of the Gq-coupled 5-HT2A receptor suggesting that MRS2365 induces loss of the ADP response as a consequence of desensitization of the Gq-coupled P2Y1 receptor [35].
 

Co-localisations of HTR2A

  • We propose that the spectral data following the lower ipsapirone dose reflect a net decrease of neuronal activity at 5-HT2 receptors, mediated through stimulation of somatodendritic autoreceptors in the raphe nuclei (presynaptic) and/or through stimulation of postsynaptic 5-HT1A receptors colocalized with 5-HT2 receptors [36].
 

Regulatory relationships of HTR2A

  • Variable participation of 5-HT1-like receptors and 5-HT2 receptors in serotonin-induced contraction of human isolated coronary arteries. 5-HT1-like receptors resemble cloned 5-HT1D beta receptors [37].
  • 5-HT1B/1D and 5-HT2B receptors are expressed since day 2 of the serotonergic differentiation while 5-HT2A receptors are induced at day 4 [38].
  • 5. Prior exposure of SH-SY5Y/5-HT2C cells to 5-HT (1 microM/15 min) caused a significant decrease in the 5-HT-stimulated peak in Ins(1,4,5)P3 levels whereas no such change occurred in SH-SY5Y/5-HT2A cells following exposure to 10 microM 5-HT for 15 min [39].
  • Nefazodone's potent 5-HT2 antagonism in combination with 5-HT reuptake inhibition appears to enhance 5-HT1A-mediated neurotransmission [40].
  • The coapplication of 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 receptor agonists inhibited the induction of NMDAR-dependent LTP in 5-HT-depleted slices [41].
 

Other interactions of HTR2A

  • RESULTS: Statistically significant positive associations were found for HTR2A and hSERT polymorphisms [42].
  • When comparing specific response to nonspecific response, we found significant negative associations in three SNPs in the HTR2A gene (P=0.001-0.03) and two SNPs in the MAOA gene (P=0.03-0.05) [43].
  • In the specific response vs nonspecific and nonresponse comparison, three SNPs in the TPH2 gene (P=0.02-0.04) were positively associated and one SNP in the HTR2A gene (P=0.02) was negatively associated [43].
  • Serotonin 5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, and 5-HT2A receptor mRNA expression in subjects with major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia [44].
  • Furthermore, the maximal response to 5-carboxytryptamine was reduced in a concentration-dependent manner by the 5-HT2A/5-HT2C-selective partial agonist (+/-)-1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropane [22].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of HTR2A

  • Although the association of schizophrenia with the C allele of HTR2A was confirmed by a meta-analysis 5 years ago, there was a continuous debate because negative findings were also considerable, which may have been due to ethnic differences in association [45].
  • Multiple regression analysis showed that age and body mass index (BMI) were significantly associated with OSA, but HTR2A polymorphisms were not [2].
  • Acute vascular constriction by 5-HT is usually shared by 5-HT1B and 5-HT2A receptors, except in intracranial arteries which constrict only through 5-HT1B receptors [3].
  • Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and ribonuclease protection assays were performed to identify 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 receptor mRNA expression in human coronary artery [46].
  • PCR products corresponding to 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B, but not 5-HT2C, receptor mRNA could readily be detected [47].
