Specific binding of [3H]ketanserin to 5-HT2A serotonin receptor sites in the corpus striatum and frontal cortex and the effect of 5-HT2A antagonists in rats and mice hereditarily predisposed to catalepsy has been studied. Cyproheptadine inhibited the expression of inherited catalepsy in rats and mice, whereas more selective 5-HT2A antagonists, ritanserin and ketanserin, failed to affect the catalepsy. A decrease in [3H]ketanserin-specific binding site density in the striatum of cataleptic animals compared to their noncataleptic counterparts was found. It was suggested that the decrease in the density of 5-HT2A receptor binding sites in the striatum represents a result of their downregulation due to increased serotonergic neurotransmission in the striatum of cataleptic animals.

D002375 Catalepsy A condition characterized by inactivity, decreased responsiveness to stimuli, and a tendency to maintain an immobile posture. The limbs tend to remain in whatever position they are placed (waxy flexibility). Catalepsy may be associated with PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS (e.g., SCHIZOPHRENIA, CATATONIC), nervous system drug toxicity, and other conditions.

D003342 Corpus Striatum Striped GRAY MATTER and WHITE MATTER consisting of the NEOSTRIATUM and paleostriatum (GLOBUS PALLIDUS). It is located in front of and lateral to the THALAMUS in each cerebral hemisphere. The gray substance is made up of the CAUDATE NUCLEUS and the lentiform nucleus (the latter consisting of the GLOBUS PALLIDUS and PUTAMEN). The WHITE MATTER is the INTERNAL CAPSULE.
