5-Hydroxytryptamine receptors (version 2019.4) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database

oai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/31555-HT receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on 5-HT receptors [194] and subsequently revised [176]) are, with the exception of the ionotropic 5-HT3 class, GPCRs where the endogenous agonist is 5-hydroxytryptamine. The diversity of metabotropic 5-HT receptors is increased by alternative splicing that produces isoforms of the 5-HT2A (non-functional), 5-HT2C (non-functional), 5-HT4, 5-HT6 (non-functional) and 5-HT7 receptors. Unique amongst the GPCRs, RNA editing produces 5-HT2C receptor isoforms that differ in function, such as efficiency and specificity of coupling to Gq/11 and also pharmacology [40, 482]. Most 5-HT receptors (except 5-ht1e and 5-ht5b) play specific roles mediating functional responses in different tissues (reviewed by [463, 382])

ABSTRACT Single amino acid mutations in the third intracellular loop, as well as other domains of G protein-coupled receptors, have been shown to confer drastic changes in receptor properties and have been postulated to be responsible for various disease states. To determine whether an amino acid mutation can confer dramatic alterations in the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A (5-HT 2A ) receptor, we mutated amino acid 322 to lysine (C322K), glutamate (C322E) or arginine (C322R). Transient expression of the mutant receptors revealed properties associated with constitutive activity. Radioligand binding studies revealed an increase in 5-HT affinity from 293 nM (native) to 86 nM (C322E), 25 nM (C322K) and 11 nM (C322R). 5-HT potency for stimulation of inositol phosphate production increased from 152 nM (native) to 61 nM (C322E) and 25 nM (C322K). Basal inositol phosphate levels in COS-7 cells expressing C322K and C322E mutant receptors were 8-fold and 4-fold higher, respectively, than cells expressing native 5-HT 2A receptors. Basal levels of inositol phosphate stimulated by C322K receptors represented 48% of total inositol phosphate production stimulated by native receptors in the presence of 10 M 5-HT. Antipsychotic drugs (chlorpromazine, clozapine, haloperidol, loxapine and risperidone) displayed inverse agonist activity by inhibiting C322K constitutive activation of phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis. These data indicate that amino acid 322 in the 5-HT 2A receptor plays an important role in maintaining the inactive conformation and provide further evidence that amino acid mutations can produce profound alterations in G protein-coupled receptor activity. The third intracellular loop of GPCR has been identified as a region that is crucial for receptor/G protein interactions (Strader et al., 1987; Recently, several GPCR have exhibited constitutive activity in vivo.

Copyright © 2020 by The American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics. 5-HT receptors expressed throughout the human body are targets for established therapeutics and various drugs in development. Their diversity of structure and function reflects the important role 5-HT receptors play in physiologic and pathophysiological processes. The present review offers a framework for the official receptor nomenclature and a detailed understanding of each of the 14 5-HT receptor subtypes, their roles in the systems of the body, and, where appropriate, the (potential) utility of therapeutics targeting these receptors. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This review provides a comprehensive account of the classification and function of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors, including how they are targeted for therapeutic benefit
