Effects of 5-HT in globus pallidus on haloperidol-induced catalepsy in rats.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Histological, behavioral and electrophysiological studies have suggested that 5-HT may regulate motor function by affecting globus pallidus neurons activity. In this study, the effects of 5-HT in globus pallidus on haloperidol-induced catalepsy and its possible receptor mechanisms were examined in rats using bar tests. Bilateral microinjection of 5-HT (10microM) into globus pallidus significantly attenuated haloperidol-induced catalepsy. This anticataleptic effect was completely counteracted by selective 5-HT(1B) receptors antagonist SB-224289 (10microM), while partly reversed by selective 5-HT(4) receptors antagonist GR-113808 (1microM). In addition, the selective 5-HT(7) receptors antagonist SB-269970 (1microM) partly reversed the anticataleptic effect of 5-HT only at the incipient period after the intrapallidal injection. In conclusion, 5-HT in globus pallidus could attenuate haloperidol-induced catalepsy via multiple receptor mechanisms.

Contribution of the mGluR7 receptor to antiparkinsonian-like effects in rats: a behavioral study with the selective agonist AMN082.
BACKGROUND Metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) have been shown to be potential targets for numerous neurological diseases, including Parkinson's disease (PD). We previously reported that ACPT-1, a non-selective group III mGluRs agonist, injected locally into the globus pallidus, striatum or substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), significantly attenuated the haloperidol-induced catalepsy ...
متن کاملEarly life stress causes refractoriness to haloperidol-induced catalepsy.
The use of classic antipsychotic drugs is limited by the occurrence of extrapyramidal motor symptoms, which are caused by dopamine (DA) receptor blockade in the neostriatum. We examined the impact of early-life stress on haloperidol-induced catalepsy using the rat model of prenatal restraint stress (PRS). Adult "PRS rats," i.e., the offspring of mothers exposed to restraint stress during pregna...
متن کاملEffects of dexfenfluramine on dopamine dependent behaviours in rats.
5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) inhibits the synthesis and release of dopamine (DA) from rat nigrostriatal DAergic neurons. Dexfenfluramine releases 5-HT from brain 5-HTergic neurons. The present study was undertaken to determine whether dexfenfluramine, through the released 5-HT, modulates the intensity of the behaviours dependent on the functional status of the nigrostriatal DAergic system. The ef...
متن کاملEffects of dextromethorphan on dopamine dependent behaviours in rats.
Dextromethorphan, a noncompetitive blocker of N-methyl-D- aspartate (NMDA) type of glutamate receptor, at 7.5-75 mg/kg, ip did not induce oral stereotypies or catalepsy and did not antagonize apomorphine stereotypy in rats. These results indicate that dextromethorphan at 7.5-75 mg/kg does not stimulate or block postsynaptic striatal D2 and D1 dopamine (DA) receptors. Pretreatment with 15 and 30...
متن کاملRole of 5-Hydroxytryptamine 1A Receptors in 6-Hydroxydopmaine-induced Catalepsy-like Immobilization in Rats: a Therapeutic Approach for Treating Catalepsy of Parkinson’s Disease
We have shown that buspirone, a partial agonist of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A (5-HT1A) receptors, improves motor dysfunctions induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) and haloperidol in rats. The present work extends these findings by investigating the role of 5-HT1A receptors on catalepsy-like immobilization in rats, a model of Parkinson’s disease. Catalepsy was induced by unilateral infusion of 6-OH...
