| Abstract | The interaction of serotonergic ligands at human (h) 5-HT1A receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells was examined with the selective ‘neutral' 5-HT1A antagonist [3H]-WAY100,635. Its binding was saturable (K D =0.056 nM) with a Bmax (3.65 pmol mg−1) significantly higher than that of two other selective 5-HT1A radioligands: the partial agonist, [3H]-S15535 (2.77 pmol mg−1) and the agonist, [3H]-8-OH-DPAT (2.02 pmol mg−1). The influence of GTPγS (100 μM) on the binding affinity of 15 serotonergic agonists, partial agonists, antagonists and inverse agonists was investigated in competition binding experiments with [3H]-WAY100,635. Agonists, including 5-HT, 8-OH-DPAT and buspirone, displayed biphasic isotherms which shifted to the right in the presence of GTPγS. In contrast, isotherms of the inverse agonists, methiothepin, (+)butaclamol and spiperone, were shifted to the left in the presence of GTPγS. Unlabelled WAY100,635 was the only ligand that was unaffected by GTPγS, consistent with ‘neutral' antagonist properties. The magnitude of affinity changes induced by GTPγS for 13 ligands was highly correlated (r=0.98) with their efficacy (positive and negative) previously determined by [35S]GTPγS binding. In contrast, the napthylpiperazine derivative and high efficacy agonist, S14506, displayed only a modest GTPγS shift, in accordance with previous indications of ‘atypical' binding properties of this ligand. A further full agonist, S14671, which is chemically closely-related to S14506, also displayed a minimal GTPγS shift, underpinning this observation. In conclusion, [3H]-WAY100,635 constitutes a useful neutral antagonist radioligand for the characterization of drug actions at h5-HT1A receptors. GTPγS-induced affinity changes of agonist and inverse agonist competition isotherms generally correlate well with ligand efficacy, with the notable exception of two chemically-similar agents, S14506 and S14671, which are efficacious agonists, yet relatively insensitive to h5-HT1A receptor/G-protein coupling changes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
