1-(2-Methoxyphenyl)-4-[(phthalimido)butyl] piperazine (NAN-190) and 8-[4-[4-(2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazinyl]butyl]-8-azaspiro[4.5] decane-7,9-dione (buspirone) are 5-HT1A receptor partial agonists which decrease 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) release in vivo. In order to assess whether these ligands decrease 5-HT release by stimulating 5-HT1A receptors we examined the ability of the selective 5-HT1A receptor antagonist N-tert-butyl 3-4-(2-methoxyphenyl) piperazin-1-yl-2-phenylpropanamide dihydrochloride (WAY-100135) to block their inhibitory effects on 5-HT. NAN-190 (0.1 mg/kg s.c.) and buspirone (1.0 mg/kg s.c.) significantly decreased extracellular levels of 5-HT in hippocampal dialysates. WAY-100135 (10.0 mg/kg s.c.) attenuated the effect of buspirone but had no significant effect on the NAN-190-induced decreased in 5-HT release. These data demonstrate that buspirone is an agonist at the somatodendritic 5-HT1A receptor but that the inhibitory effects of NAN-190 on 5-HT release may be mediated via a mechanism other than, or in addition to, 5-HT1A receptor agonism.

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.

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
