5-Hydroxytryptamine(5-HT, serotonin), when given into the vein, produced antidiuretic action accompanied with reduction of glomerular filtration(GFR), renal plasma flow(RPF), osmolar clearance(Cosm) and amounts of sodium or potassium excreted in urine( $E_{Na}$ , $E_{K}$), with the augmented reabsorption rates of sodium and potassium in renal tubules. 5-HT, when infused into a renal artery, exhibited diuretic action accompanied with the augmented RPF and increased $E_{Na}$ and $E_{K}$ in only infused kidney. Antidiuretic action of 5-HT infused into the vein was not influenced by ketanserin, 5-H $T_2$receptor blockade, given into a renal artery, vein or carotid artery, by methysergide, 5-H $T_1$receptor blockade, given into a renal artery, whereas above antidiuretic action was inhibited by methysergide given into vein or carotid artery. Diuretic action of 5-HT infused into a renal artery in only experimental kidney was blocked by ketanserin injected into a renal artery, was not influenced by methysergide administered into a renal artery. Above results suggest that 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) produced the antidiuretic action through central 5-H $T_1$receptor and the diuretic action through 5-H $T_2$receptor located in renal tubules of kidney.ney.

5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 7 ($5-HT_7R$) is one of G-Protein coupled receptors, which is found to be involved in the pathophysiology of various neurological disorders including depression, sleep disorders, memory deficiency and neuropathic pain. After activation of $5-HT_7R$ by serotonin, it activates the production of the intracellular signaling molecule cyclic AMP. The availability of 3D structure of the receptor would enhance the development of new drugs. Hence, in the present study, homology modelling of human 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 7 ($5-HT_7R$) was performed using comparative modelling (Easy Modeller) and threading (I-TASSER) approaches. The generated models were validated using Ramachandran plot and ERRAT plot and the best models were selected based on the validation results. The 3D model developed here could be useful for identifying crucial residues and further docking study.

평골근(平滑筋)으로 된 자궁근(子宮筋)은 자동성(自動性)을 가지고 있어서 신경지배(神徑支配)와 관계(關係)없이 근자체(筋自體)로 운동(運動)을 하게 된다. 그러나 이러한 자궁근(子宮筋)의 형태적(形態的) 및 기능적(機能的) 정상상태유지(正常狀態維持)에는 estrogen의 작용(作用)이 불가결(不可缺)한 요소(要素)로 되어 있으며 이 estrogen의 작용(作用)에 의하여 histamine의 자궁근(子宮筋)에 대한 (작용)作用이 수용체(受容體)의 어떤 기전에 의한 것인지를 알기 위하여 본(本) 연구(硏究)는 histamine과 5-hydroxytryptamine 및 이들 길항물질(拮抗物質)들의 자궁근(子宮筋) 운동성(運動性)에 대한 수축(收縮) 및 이완작용(弛緩作用)을 조사(調査)하였다. 자궁근(子宮筋)의 운동성(運動性)은 physiograph를 통(通)해 자궁수축(子宮收縮)의 빈도(頻度)와 크기를 기록하여 아래와 같은 결론(結論)을 얻었다. 1. 5-hydroxytryptamine에 대한 phenoxybenzamine의 억제작용(抑制作用)은 phenoxybenzamine의 길항성(拮抗性)의 결과(結果)이다. 2. histamine은 $H_1$-receptor를 통해서 흰쥐의 자궁평활근(子宮平滑筋)의 운동성(運動性)은 증가(增加)한다. 3. 반면 histamine은 $H_2$-receptor를 통해서는 자궁평활근(子宮平滑筋)의 운동성(運動性)을 이완(弛緩)시켰다. 4. 흰쥐의 자궁근(子官筋)에서 $H_2$-receptor 차단제(遮斷劑)가 $H_1$-receptor 차단제(遮斷劑)의 작용(作用)보다 더욱 강하였다.

1. The auther studied the interrelationship between the sensibility of heart of fishes to neuro-hormones (epinephrine, norepinephrine and acetylcholinie) and 5-hydroxytryptamine and the differentiation of nervous system in the heart . Attempts were also made to develop the similarity and systematic relationship of inter-genus and inter-species. 2. Judging from the reactions to neurohormones, it is considered that inter-genus of locah (Misgurnus mizolepis GNTHER) and eel (Anguilla japonic TEMMINEK & SCHJEGEL) are more closely related than that of Crucian (Carassius carassius L. ). 3. As the sensibility of locach to 50 jhdroxytryptamine is more sensitive over 10, 000 times than that of a Mollusca, Meretrix lusoria RODING, it is very excellent material for the bioassay of 5-jydroxytryptamine.

We studied the effect of carbon monoxide(CO)-induced bypoxia on monoamine neurotransmitter and their syntheitc enzyme in rat brain. When the rats were acute or chronic intoxicated at CO 5000 ppm for 30 minutes or 2000 ppm for 1 week each 3 hours, dopamine content increased significantly with decreasing of its turnover in striatum and norepinephrine content was diminished in hypothalamus. 5-hydroxytryptamine content was increased significantly and its turnover was decreased both in striatum and hypothalamus. Tyrosine hydroxylase activity was reduced in striatum. These results suggest that inhibition of TH activity in CO-induced hypoxia is owing to lack of oxygen supply threfore NE content is decreased. We suggest that increasing of dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine are due to reduction of its turnover.

The effects of adenosine, adenosine A1 receptor antagonist (DPCPX), or NMDA receptor antagonist (APV) on the spontaneous release of $[^3H]-5-hydroxytryptamine$ ($[^3H]-5-HT$) during normoxic/normoglycemic or hypoxic/hypoglycemic period were studied in the rat hippocampal slices. The hippocampus was obtained from the rat brain and sliced $400\;{\mu}m$ thickness with the tissue slicer. After 30 min's preincubation in the normal buffer, the slices were incubated for 30 min in a buffer containing $[^3H]-5-HT$ ($0.1\;{\mu}M,\;74{\mu}Ci/8\;ml$) for uptake, and washed. To measure the release of $[^3H]-5-HT$ into the buffer, the incubation medium was drained off and refilled every ten minutes through sequence of 14 tubes. Induction of glucose/oxygen deprivation (GOD; medium depleting glucose and gassed with 95% $N_2/5%\;CO_2$) was done in 6th and 7th tube. The radioactivities in each buffer and the tissue were counted using liquid scintillation counter and the results were expressed as a percentage of the total radioactivities. When slices were exposed to GOD for 20 mins, the spontaneous release of $[^3H]-5-HT$ was markedly increased and this increase of $[^3H]-5-HT$ release was blocked by adenosine ($10\;{\mu}M$) or DL-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (APV; $30\;{\mu}M$). Adenosine $A_1$ receptor specific antagonist, 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX) exacerbate GOD-induced increase of spontaneous release of $[^3H]-5-HT$. These results suggest that Adenosine may play a role in the GOD-induced spontaneous release of $[^3H]-5-HT$ through adenosine $A_1$ receptor activity.

During cerebral ischemia two important factors such as hypoxia and reduction of glucose can act as modulating stressor affecting the release of amine neurotransmitters including 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). This study was performed to investigate the effect of glucose deprivation on the oxygen deprivation-induced changes of [3H]-5-HT release in the rat hippocampal slices. Experimental groups were divided into 4 groups for this study: normoxic/normoglycemic group, oxygen-deprived group, glucose-deprived group, and oxygen/glucose-deprived group. The hippocampus of rat brain was sliced by 400 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness with manual chopper. After 30 minutes preincubation in the normal buffer, the slices were incubated for 20 min in buffer containing [3H]-5-HT (0.1 M, 74 $\mu\textrm$Ci) for uptake. To measure the release of [3H]-5-HT into the buffer, the incubation medium was drained of and refilled with fresh buffer every ten minutes through a sequence of 14 tubes. Oxygen deprivation by gassing with 95% $N_2$/5% $CO_2$ and/or glucose deprivation was done in the 6th and 7th tube. The radioactivities in each buffer and the tissue were counted using scintillation counter. The results were expressed as fractional release. When slices were exposed to oxygen-deprived media for 20 min, the diminution followed by the rebound release of [3H]-5-HT was observed during the post-oxygen deprived period. However, glucose deprivation or oxygen/glucose deprivation markedly increased the release of [3H]-5-HT. which was opposite to the pattern observed in oxygen-deprived group. These results suggested that oxygen deprivation itself inhibits [3H]-5-HT release in rat hippocampal slices during oxygen-deprived period, but additional glucose deprivation convert the inhibitory response to increase of [3H]-5-HT release.

It has been well documented that a massive release of not only glutamate but also other neurotransmitters may modulate the final responses of nerve cells to the ischemic neuronal injury. But there is no information regarding whether the release of monoamines is directly associated with synaptic vesicular proteins under ischemia. In the present study, it was investigated whether synapsin 1, syntaxin and SNAP-25 are involved in the release of 5-hydroxytryptamine $([^3H]5-HT)$ in glucose/oxygen deprived (GOD) rat hippocampal slices. And, the effect of NMDA receptor using DL-2-amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (APV) on ischemia- induced release of 5-HT and the changes of the above proteins were also investigated. GOD for 20 minutes enhanced release of $[^3H]5-HT,$ which was in part blocked by the NMDA receptor antagonist, APV. The augmented expression of synapsin 1 during GOD for 20 minutes, which was also in part prevented by APV. In contrast, the expression of syntaxin and SNAP-25 were not altered during GOD. These results suggest that ischemic insult induces release of $[^3H]5-HT$ associated with synapsin 1, synaptic vesicular protein, via activation of NMDA receptor in part.

저자들은 성숙한 雄性白鼠(Albino Wistar)에 INH 40mg/kg, pyridoxine 20mg/kg를 경구적으로 투여하여 mast cell과 enterochromaffin cell 의 변동을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. INH투여로 白鼠 약 舌 mast cell 의 심한 파괴와 細胞質顆粒의 逸出作用으로 세포수는 격감하였으나, pyridoxine 투여군에서는 대조군에 비해 상당한 수적증가를 보였다. 2. INH 투여로 白鼠 심이지장 enterochromaffin cell의 세포수와 細胞質顆粒양에 현저한 감소를 나타냈으나 pyridoxine 투여군에서는 대조군에 비해 enterochromaffin cell의 상당한 수적증가를 보였다. 3. 이상의 성적에 있어서 INH의 다량 투여는 mast cell과 enterochromaffin cell의 생성에 심한 장해를 주며 pyridoxine 의 적당한 투여는 mast cell과 enterochromaffin cell의 생성을 조장 하고 顆粒양을 증가시키는 것으로 보아 이들 세포의 分泌産物인 5-Hydroxytryptamine 대사에 pyridoxine이 관여하는 것으로 사료된다.
