| Abstract | 1. Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) express an endogenous 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1B-like receptor that is negatively coupled to adenylyl cyclase through a pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive mechanism. Furthermore, the human adenosine A1 receptor when expressed in CHO-K1 cells (CHO-A1) has been shown to mobilize intracellular Ca2+ through a PTX-sensitive mechanism. Therefore the aim of this investigation was to determine whether the endogenous 5-HT1B-like receptor was able to stimulate increases in intracellular free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) in CHO-A1 cells. 2. In agreement with previous studies using CHO cells, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) elicited a concentration-dependent inhibition of forskolin-stimulated [3H]-cyclic AMP production in CHO-A1 cells (p[EC50] = 7.73 +/- 0.13). 5-HT (1 microM) inhibited 47 +/- 5% of the [3H]-cyclic AMP accumulation induced by 3 microM forskolin. Forskolin stimulated [3H]-cyclic AMP accumulation was also inhibited by the 5-HT1 receptor agonists (p[EC50] values) 5-carboxyamidotryptamine (5-CT; 8.07 +/- 0.08), RU 24969 (8.12 +/- 0.33) and sumatriptan (5.80 +/- 0.31). 3. 5-HT elicited a concentration-dependent increase in [Ca2+]i in CHO-A1 cells (p[EC50] = 8.07 +/- 0.05). In the presence of 2 mM extracellular Ca2+, 5-HT (1 microM) increased [Ca2+]i from 174 +/- 17 nM to 376 +/- 22 nM. The 5-HT1 receptor agonists (p[EC50] values), 5-carboxyamidotryptamine (5-CT; 7.9 +/- 0.02), RU 24969 (8.1 +/- 0.07) and sumatriptan (5.9 +/- 0.11) all elicited concentration-dependent increases in [Ca2+]i. Similar maximal increases in [Ca2+]i were obtained with each agonist. The selective 5-HT1A receptor agonist, 8-OH-DPAT (10 microM) did not stimulate increases in [Ca2+]i. 5-HT (100 microM) and 5-CT (10 microM) did not stimulate a measurable increase in [3H]-inositol phosphate accumulation in CHO-A1 cells. 4. 5-HT (1 microM)-mediated increases in [Ca2+]i were insensitive to the 5-HT receptor antagonist, ritanserin (5-HT2; 100 nM), ketanserin (5-HT2; 100 nM), LY-278,584 (5-HT3; 1 microM) and WAY 100635 (5-HT1A; 1 microM). The response to 5-HT (100 nM) was antagonized by the non-selective 5-HT1 antagonist, methiothepin (pKb = 8.90 +/- 0.09) and the 5-HT1D antagonist GR 127935 (pKb = 10.44 +/- 0.06). 5. Pretreatment with PTX (200 ng ml-1 for 4 h) completely attenuated the Ca2+ response to 100 microM 5-HT. 6. In untransfected CHO-K1 cells, 5-HT (1 microM), RU 24969 (1 microM), and 5-CT (1 microM) elicited increases in [Ca2+]i similar to those observed in CHO-A1 cells. 7. These data demonstrate that in CHO-K1 cells the endogenously expressed 5-HT1B-like receptor couples to the phospholipase C/Ca2+ signalling pathway through a PTX-sensitive pathway, suggesting the involvement of Gi/Go protein(s). |

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.
