The effect of prolonged administration of high doses of buspirone on its 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) release-inhibitory and anxiolytic-like properties was investigated. The 5-HT release-inhibitory effect of a challenge dose of buspirone (0.5 mg/kg, s.c.) was identical in rats chronically treated with vehicle or buspirone (10 mg/kg, b.i.d. for 10 weeks), as estimated by in vivo microdialysis in the ventral hippocampus. In the same set of animals there was a significant anxiolytic-like effect in the elevated plus-maze after 5 weeks of treatment with buspirone. The results indicate that the functional capacity of 5-HT release-controlling 5-HT1A autoreceptors is retained upon chronic administration of buspirone, and that this effect may well be associated with the anxiolytic-like action of the compound.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

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
