THE SITE OF THE 5-HYDROXYTRYPTAMINE RECEPTOR ON THE INTRAMURAL NERVOUS PLEXUS OF THE GUINEA-PIG ISOLATED ILEUM.

Dose/response measurements were made on the guinea-pig isolated ileum with six agonists, acetylcholine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, nicotine, dimethylphenylpiperazinium, choline phenyl ether and histamine. The dose effects were repeated in the presence of each of twelve antagonists and one anticholinesterase. Acetylcholine and histamine were chosen because of their direct mode of action on smooth muscle, nicotine, dimethylphenylpiperazinium and choline phenyl ether were used as examples of drugs that act at the ganglionic acetylcholine receptor. 5-Hydroxytryptamine was the drug investigated. Hyoscine blocked the contractions caused by acetylcholine, 5-hydroxytryptamine and the ganglion-stimulants but left the responses to histamine unchanged. The anticholinesterase N,N'-diisopropylphosphorodiamidic fluoride (mipafox) potentiated all the agonists except histamine. The strength of potentiation decreased in the order 5-hydroxytryptamine, nicotine, dimethylphenylpiperazinium and choline phenyl ether, and acetylcholine. The local anaesthetic procaine inhibited to the same extent contractions elicited by 5-hydroxytryptamine, nicotine, dimethylphenylpiperazinium and choline phenyl ether. These results showed that 5-hydroxytryptamine, like nicotine, choline phenyl ether and dimethylphenylpiperazinium, mediated its response through the nervous plexus. Of those tested 5-hydroxytryptamine was the only specific antagonist to 5-hydroxytryptamine; lysergic acid derivatives produced spasm and prolonged changes in tone; phenoxybenzamine caused non-specific block. The diverse modes of action of a number of ganglion-blocking agents were selectively used. Thus hexamethonium, pentolinium, and nicotine in its competitive phase, blocked contractions due to nicotine, dimethylphenylpiperazinium and choline phenyl ether and left those due to 5-hydroxytryptamine, acetylcholine and histamine unchanged. The depolarizing ganglion-blocking agents, dimethylphenylpiperazinium and nicotine, inhibited the responses to all the indirectly acting drugs. Furthermore, mecamylamine, a drug with a less well-defined mode of action, partially inhibited contractions due to 5-hydroxytryptamine in a concentration that blocked those due to nicotine, dimethylphenylpiperazinium and choline phenyl ether. Pempidine, known to act like mecamylamine, did not antagonize 5-hydroxytryptamine. It is concluded that 5-hydroxytryptamine activates specific receptors sited at the intramural parasympathetic ganglion cells.

EFFECTS OF CHLORPROMAZINE AND BROMOLYSERGIC ACID DIETHYLAMIDE ON GASTRIC SECRETION OF ACID INDUCED BY HISTAMINE IN RATS.

In anaesthetized rats in which the lumen of the stomach was perfused with 0.001 to 0.00025 N-sodium hydroxide solution and the pH of effluent fluid was recorded continuously, intravenous administration of chlorpromazine caused transient inhibition of acid secretion. After acid secretion had returned to the control level the responses to histamine were greater than those before chlorpromazine was given. Aminoguanidine, iproniazid and bromolysergic acid diethylamide also potentiated the effect of histamine on acid secretion but the initial inhibition was absent. Indirect evidence from experiments in which mixtures of aminoguanidine with chlorpromazine or bromolysergic acid diethylamide and of iproniazid with chlorpromazine or bromolysergic acid diethylamide were given, suggests that chlorpromazine and bromolysergic acid diethylamide enhance responses to histamine by inhibition of imidazole-N-methyl transferase.

Actions of derivatives of lysergic acid on the heart of Venus mercenaria.

5-Hydroxytryptamine and a number of (+)-lysergic acid derivatives have been tested on the heart of Venus mercenaria. One group of derivatives was found to increase the amplitude and frequency of heart beat in a manner much like 5-hydroxytryptamine. It included the monoethylamide, diethylamide, propanolamide (ergometrine), butanolamide (methylergometrine) and certain peptide derivatives of lysergic acid without substituents in positions 1 or 2. Of these, lysergic acid diethylamide was the most active. Given sufficient time (up to 4 hr), as little as 10 ml. of 10(-16) M lysergic acid diethylamide produced a maximum increase in amplitude and frequency in about one-half of the 80 hearts on which it was tested. Its action was very slowly reversed by washing, as was true of all lysergic acid derivatives. A second group of lysergic acid derivatives, substituted in positions 1 or 2, had weak excitor action, if any, and specific 5-hydroxytryptamine blocking action. This group consisted of 1-methyl-, 1-acetyl-, and 2-bromo-lysergic acid diethylamide and 1-methyllysergic acid butanolamide (methysergide). Of these, the last showed least signs of excitor action, usually none up to 10(-4) M, and it blocked 5-hydroxytryptamine in a molar ratio of about one to one.
