The characteristics of high affinity [3H]5-HT (5-hydroxytryptamine) binding to non 5-HT1A non 5-HT1C sites were examined in crude membranes prepared from different regions of guinea-pig and pigeon brains. The coupling of these sites to adenylate cyclase was examined, and its pharmacological profile investigated. In the presence of 100 nmol/l 8-OH-DPAT (8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin) and 100 nmol/l mesulergine, [3H]5-HT labelled with nanomolar affinity an apparently homogeneous population of recognition sites in guinea-pig and pigeon brain membranes. The rank order of affinities of agonists and antagonists (5-CT (5-carboxamidotryptamine) greater than 5-HT greater than RU 24969 (5-methoxy-3-(1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4- pyridinyl)-1H indole succinate) greater than yohimbine greater than or equal to rauwolscine greater than DP-5-CT (N,N dipropyl-5-carboxamidotryptamine) greater than or equal to mianserin greater than 8-OH-DPAT greater than mesulergine greater than SDZ 21-009 ((+/-)-4(3-tert-butyl-amino-2-hydroxypropoxy)-indol-2 carbonic acid isopropyl ester) greater than (-)propranolol), as well as their individual pKD values, were very similar to those at porcine caudate 5-HT1D sites and clearly different from those at rat cortex 5-HT1B sites. In the substantia nigra of the guinea-pig the 5-HT receptor-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated adenylate cyclase had a pharmacological profile fully comparable to that of 5-HT1D binding sites (5-CT greater than 5-HT greater than yohimbine greater than RU 24969 greater than 8-OH-DPAT greater than SDZ 21-009 = isamoltane greater than (-)pindolol greater than (-)propranolol).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D001921	Brain	The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM.	Encephalon
