We use the knockout mice strategy to investigate the contribution of the 5-HT1B receptor in mediating the effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI). Using microdialysis in awake 129/Sv mice, we show that the absence of the 5-HT1B receptor in mutant mice (KO 1B -/-) potentiated the effect of paroxetine on extracellular 5-HT levels in the ventral hippocampus, but not in the frontal cortex compared to wild-type mice (WT). Furthermore, using the forced swimming test, we demonstrate that SSRIs decreased immobility of WT mice, and this effect is absent in KO 1B -/- mice showing therefore that activation of 5-HT1B receptors mediate the antidepressant-like effects of SSRIs. Taken together these findings suggest that 5-HT1B autoreceptors limit the effects of SSRI particularly in the hippocampus while postsynaptic 5-HT1B receptors are required for the antidepressant activity of SSRIs.

D006720 Homozygote An individual in which both alleles at a given locus are identical. Homozygotes
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000928 Antidepressive Agents Mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions. Several MONOAMINE OXIDASE INHIBITORS are useful as antidepressants apparently as a long-term consequence of their modulation of catecholamine levels. The tricyclic compounds useful as antidepressive agents (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, TRICYCLIC) also appear to act through brain catecholamine systems. A third group (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, SECOND-GENERATION) is a diverse group of drugs including some that act specifically on serotonergic systems.

D012701 Serotonin A biochemical messenger and regulator, synthesized from the essential amino acid L-TRYPTOPHAN. In humans it is found primarily in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood platelets. Serotonin mediates several important physiological functions including neurotransmission, gastrointestinal motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Multiple receptor families (RECEPTORS, SEROTONIN) explain the broad physiological actions and distribution of this biochemical mediator. 5-HT,5-Hydroxytryptamine,3-(2-Aminoethyl)-1H-indol-5-ol,Enteramine,Hippophaine,Hydroxytryptamine,5 Hydroxytryptamine
