摘要
The effect of a novel 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, BRL 46470, has been studied on two electrophysiological models for 5-HT3 receptors: grease-gap recordings from rat isolated vagus nerve and whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from mouse neuroblastoma-rat glioma NG108-15 cells. Its action on the rat vagus nerve was compared to that of four other 5-HT3 receptor antagonists. On the rat vagus, BRL 46470 reduced the maximum depolarizing response to 5-HT in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 0.3-1.0 nM, but the EC50 for 5-HT was not appreciably affected. This action was similar to that of granisetron and ICS 205-930, but differed from that of GR38032F and (+)-tubocurarine which produced clear rightward shifts of the concentration-response curve to 5-HT. The 5-HT-induced fast inward current of voltage-clamped NG108-15 cells was also antagonized by 1 nM BRL 46470 in an insurmountable manner. In contrast to (+)-tubocurarine, the action of BRL 46470 on the mt vagus nerve and NG108-15 cells did not readily reverse on washing with antagonist-free medium. It is concluded that BRL 46470 is a potent, insurmountable 5-HT3 receptor antagonist on the rat vagus and NG108-15 cells.
