Characterization of an adenylate cyclase-linked serotonin (5-HT1) receptor in a neuroblastoma X brain explant hybrid cell line (NCB-20). 1983

E Berry-Kravis, and G Dawson

Clonal cell line NCB-20 (a hybrid of mouse neuroblastoma N18TG2 and Chinese hamster 18-day embryonic brain explant) expressed both high- (KD 180 nM) and low-affinity (greater than 3000 nM) binding sites for [3H]serotonin (5-HT) which were absent from the parent neuroblastoma. The low-affinity binding site was eliminated by 1 microM spiperone. The order of drug potency for inhibition of high-affinity [3H]5-HT binding was consistent with a 5-HT1 receptor (5,6 - dihydroxytryptamine = 5-HT = methysergide = 5-methoxytryptamine greater than cyproheptadine = clozapine = mianserin greater than spiperone greater than dopamine = morphine = ketanserin = norepinephrine). [3H]5-HT binding was inhibited by guanine nucleotides (e.g., GTP and Gpp(NH)p), whereas antagonist binding was not; ascorbate was also inhibitory. A 30-min exposure of cells to 1-2 microM 5-HT or other agonists produced a three- to fivefold stimulation of cyclic AMP levels. The order of potency for 5-HT agonist stimulation of basal cyclic AMP levels and 5-HT antagonist reversal of agonist-stimulated levels was the same as the order of drug potency for inhibition of high-affinity [3H]5-HT binding, suggesting linkage of the 5-HT1 receptor to adenylate cyclase in NCB-20 cells.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D009447 Neuroblastoma A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome.

D011985 Receptors, Serotonin Cell-surface proteins that bind SEROTONIN and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells.

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
