Abstract
The pharmacological profile of a series of (±)-2,5-dimethoxy-4-(X)-phenylisopropylamines (X = I, Br, NO 2, CH 3, or H) and corresponding phenylethylamines, was determined in Xenopus laevis oocytes injected with cRNA coding for rat 5-HT 2A or 5-HT 2C receptors. The efficacy and relative potency of these drugs were determined and compared to classical 5-HT 2 receptor agonists and antagonists. The rank order of agonist potency at the 5-HT 2A receptor was: ?-methyl-5-HT=5-HT > m-CPP > MK-212; at the 5-HT 2C receptor the order was: 5-HT > ?-methyl-5-HT > MK-212 > m-CPP. All these compounds were full agonists at the 5-HT 2C receptor, but ?-methyl-5-HT and m-CPP showed lower efficacy at the 5-HT 2A receptor. 4-(4-Fluorobenzoyl)-1-(4-phenylbutyl)piperidine (4F 4PP) was 200 times more potent as a 5-HT 2A antagonist than at 5-HT 2C receptors. Conversely, RS 102221 was 100 times more potent as a 5-HT 2C antagonist, confirming their relative receptor selectivities. The phenylisopropylamines were partial agonists at the 5-HT 2A receptor, with I max relative to 5-HT in the 22 ± 7 to 58 ± 15% range; the corresponding phenylethylamines had lower or undetectable efficacies. All these drugs had higher efficacies at 5-HT 2C receptors; DOI was a full 5-HT 2C agonist. 2C-I and the other phenylethylamines examined showed relative efficacies at the 5-HT 2C receptor ranging from 44 ± 10% to 76 ± 16%. 2C-N was a 5-HT 2 receptor antagonist; the mechanism was competitive at the 5-HT 2A, but non-competitive at the 5-HT 2C receptor. The antagonism was time-dependent at the 5-HT 2C receptor but independent of pre-incubation time at the 5-HT 2A receptor subtype. The ?-methyl group determines the efficacy of these phenylalkylamines at the 5-HT 2A and 5-HT 2C receptors.
